Hi Didi,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Thanks for the reply.</div>

<div class=""><span style="font-family: 'Arial Unicode MS', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: -webkit-center; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class="">oVirt Engine Version: 4.1.6.2-1.el7.centos</span></div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I was able to locate the vm.conf file (/var/run/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha) for the engine and I tried changing the NIC name to something smaller: “prvmgmt". Libvirt then threw an error that the MTU for the NIC was incorrect. So I’m not sure if
the NIC name length was the exact cause. Anyway I ended up editing the conf file to wipe that NIC and then was able to successfully log into the engine.</div>

Searching google, I only find two results - your post, and:<br class="">
<br class="">
<a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1478806" class="">https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1478806</a><br class="">
<br class="">
So should be fixed in 4.1.6. Which version do you use?<br class="">
