Important here to add into installation template the path to ovirt repository: <br><pre><code>yum install <a href="http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release36.rpm" target="_blank">http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release36.rpm</a></code></pre></div><div><div>If your provisioned host does not know the repository you cannot add the foreman host from the ovirt gui.<br><br><br></div><div><br></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature">***********************************************************<br><br> Dr. Arman Khalatyan eScience -SuperComputing <br> Leibniz-Institut für Astrophysik Potsdam (AIP) <br> An der Sternwarte 16, 14482 Potsdam, Germany <br><br>***********************************************************</div></div>

<p dir="ltr">Don't know what distribution you're using but setting all up manually showed me that Foreman needs to be at at least 11 for the plugin to work. Otherwise it behaved in the same way for me; all fine and well until the provision plugin was installed
and then *sadface* :)</p>
<p dir="ltr">Get Foreman up to version 11 and you'll be fine, is my guess.</p>
