Developer documentation is in the same poor state it was 5 years ago. Thanks Daniel for the help! Adding Fedora 28 host fails with (in host deploy log): AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'decode' 2018-06-21 02:12:18,864+0300 ERROR otopi.context context._executeMethod:152 Failed to execute stage 'Initializing': 'str' object has no attribute 'decode' After fixing this we fail with (in host deploy log): TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str' 2018-06-21 02:21:50,148+0300 ERROR otopi.context context._executeMethod:152 Failed to execute stage 'Setup validation': a bytes-like object is required, not 'str' Both issues fixed in https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/92437/ With this patch we reach the next failure in otopi, fixed in https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/92435/ Next failure is in TASK [ovirt-provider-ovn-driver : Install ovirt-provider-ovn-driver]: The conditional check 'ovn_central | ipaddr' failed. The error was: The ipaddr filter requires python-netaddr be installed on the ansible controller After installing python-netaddr on the engine host, we passed this step. I don't know why this ansible playbook is running, I answered NO when engine-setup asked about OVN. I'm not sure where the dependency on python-netaddr should be. Next failure is in TASK [ovirt-host-deploy-firewalld : Enable SSH port] unsupported version of firewalld, requires >= 0.2.11 # rpm -q firewalld firewalld-0.5.2-2.fc28.noarch Obviously the complain is incorrect, "0.5.2" > "0.2.11". I worked around this by disabling firewall configuration when adding a host. The host was added but was not reachable. To fix this, I disabled the firewall on the host using: iptables -F The next issue is missing ovirtmgmt bridge on the host, using setup networks fixed the issue - and the host became UP. I tried to add storage, and found that: - engine "New Domain" dialog is very broken now. See attached screenshots. - block storage is broken because of lvm bug, caused by GCC bug see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1593836 - file storage is broken because sanlock fail to write to its lockfile - selinux again. see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1593853 To work around this, I switch to permissive mode: setenforce 0 At this point I could upload and download images from engine UI! So in summary, to add Fedora 28 host: - patch ovirt-host-deploy: https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/92437/ and install on engine host - patch otopi: https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/92435/ and install on engine host - install python-netaddr on engine host - need to file a bug - disable firewall setup in engine "Add host" dialog - need to file a bug - disable firewall on the host - use setup networks to add ovirtmgmt network to the host - forget about block storage for now https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1593836 - change selinux to permissive mode https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1593853 - we need a tracker bug for fedora 28 issues Nir
