[ovirt-users] New host HE 4.0 -> [ ERROR ] Failed to execute stage 'Environment customization': Specified gateway is not pingable

[Matt .]

The deploy went OK from the GUI but it's still not "active" as Hosted
engine Host. The install also wen very fast so it looked like it
didn't do anything witl the deploy setting in the GUI @ the hosted
engine tab.

Or should I re-deploy again on the commandline after adding the host
through the GUI ?

About the initial GW, I didn't see that in the GUI.
