Dear Sandro,
this gives me a clear idea of the status of the project unfortunately.
But please let me explain my use case and maybe you can suggest me the correct solution. In my organization we have several ovirt installations, some with hosted engine, some with a separate VM running on "something else". Personally I have 2 instances that I care most and they are still running 4.5.4. You suggested several months ago that we should switch to nightlies, but since I need to be sure they work correctly, I want to test them on a separate tesbed. Hence I wanted to install a brand new mini cluster to test the nightlies before running them in production (I think this is the correct approach in general). Anyway since nightlies change quite often and are not versioned, it's not simple, I think, to test them on a testbed and then bring them in production, since some packages may have already been updated. So, what do yuo suggest me to do, to be sure I run in production only tested software?
THanks a lot for your support.

Andrea

If this is a new install from scratch, I would recommend a CentOS Stream 9 based deployment and dedicate a host to the oVirt Engine or on a VM but not using a Hosted Engine.

    Dear all,
    I've been struggling with a new ovirt installation for several
    weeks but
    I seem to have no luck at all.
    I've tried both starting from a centos8 stream system and a
    ovirt-node,
    but the engine installation always breaks here:

    TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Wait for the host to be up]

    I keep getting the same problem, it looks like the engine is not
    "migrated" to the public ip and is stuck on the natted address
    that the
    installation process is using during the preliminary phase.
    Here is a message that seems to confirm my theory:

    2023-09-19 15:43:29,259+0200 DEBUG
    otopi.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.ansible_utils
    ansible_utils._process_output:109 {'msg': "The task includes an
    option
    with an undefined variable. The error was: 'local_vm_ip' is
    undefined\n\nThe error appears to be in
    
'/usr/share/ansible/collections/ansible_collections/ovirt/ovirt/roles/hosted_engine_setup/tasks/sync_on_engine_machine.yml':

    line 2, column 3, but may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the
    exact syntax problem.\n\nThe offending line appears to be:\n\n---\n-
    name: Set the name for add_host\n  ^ here\n", '_ansible_no_log':
    False}
    2

    I know the problem the development of ovirt is facing lately, but
    I am
    simply wondering: is there a way to install ovirt 4.5.4 today or
    is it
    all already lost??!

    Any kind of help would be really appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Andrea
