Would someone please point me to the "right" HOWTO article for deploying a production-grade oVirt 3.6.x system with HA hosted engine?<br></div><div><br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div>I spent almost two weeks just trying to get the networking straight--only to have VDSM overwrite all my hard work and totally break my networking (I was using a bonded set of NICs with bridges and VLANs for ovirt-management, ovirt-storage, and local-lan.).<br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div><br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div>Once I abandoned VLANs and installed a third physical NIC, I was able to install the first node and the hosted engine-- but after I got things "working" now I receive constantly cycling email messages for ovirt-hosted-engine state transition: ReinitializeFSM-EngineStarting, EngineStarting-EngineUp, and StartState-ReinitializeFSM<br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div><br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div>When I try to follow the instructions to add engines for HA, the system keep faulting that it is unable to find the answer file it needs on node 2.<br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div><br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div>And now that I finally figured out that I needed to add "another" storage domain for the datacenter to initialize, the addition of new hosted-engine deployments is blocked by the presence of the attached storage domain.<br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div><br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div>So, all of that said.... is there a HOWTO written specifically for CentOS 7 that does not want me to kill Network Manager and switch from FirewallD back to iptables--and does not assume I want to use glusterfs?<br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div><br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div>I have two sets of HP Proliant servers I want to use for this: 4 DL380 G6s and 4 DL380G5s, plus one G5 which is my initial NFS3 share<br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div><br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div>For such an AWESOME project, I find it really disappointing that the documentation is so poor/outdated. :-(<br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div><br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div>Thanks,<br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div>Eriks<br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div><br data-mce-bogus="1"></div></div></body></html>
