<p>Well, I've spent the last 2.5 days trying to get oVirt 4.2 up and
running.</p>
<p>I sneeze on it, vdsm has a conniption and there appears to be no
way to recover from it.</p>
<p>1) Install 4.2. Everything looks good. Start copying over some
data..accidently wipe out the master storage domain...It's gone.
The only method google could suggest was to re-initialize the data
center. Great. I'd love to! It's greyed out. Can't get it
back...Try several hosted-engine uninstall methods, including <br>
</p>
<pre class="screen">/usr/sbin/ovirt-hosted-engine-cleanup and wiping out the storage.
re-run hosted-engine --deploy
All I get over and over in the vdsm log file while waiting for vdsm to become operational is..

sigh...reinstall 7.4 and do it all over again.
2) copying data to master storage pool. Didn't wipe it out this time, but filled the volume instead. Environment freezes.
vdsm can't start...infinite loop waiting for storage pool again. Try clean up and redeploy. Same problem as above.
7.4 reinstall #2 here we go...
3)Up and running again. Forgot to add my NIC card. Shut it down. Boot back up. vdsm sees new network interfaces.
for some reason, it switches ovirtmgmt over to one of the new interfaces which doesn't have a cable
attached to it. Clean up ifcfg- files and reboot. ifcfg-ovirtmgmt is now gone. recreate and reboot. Interface
comes alive, but vdsm is not starting.
supervdsm log shows:
Multiple southbound ports per network detected, ignoring this network for the QoS report (network: ovirtmgmt, ports: ['enp3s0', 'enp4s0'])

Remove new nic. reboot. vdsm once again stuck waiting for storage pool to come up.
So this is where I'm at now. Stuck. once again.
I've been running 3.6.3 All In One for many years because I've been concerned about the complexity of the self hosted
configuration. Guess I was right.
Google shows lots of other people also concerned about the stability of oVirt..It's great when it runs, but
any little issue and you're basically reinstalling from scratch.
