It seems the issue stems from cpu type being empty.

Perhaps this Penryn series CPU is too old for this oVirt installation...

Yes, we dropped Penryn from supported CPU list i 4.3. You could probably stil make it run but it would need messing with engine’s db, adding back Nehalem entry to ServerCPUList(e.g. from 4.2 cluster version line) and resume the deployment somehow.

Hi guys,

I am trying to install oVirt 4.4 for testing of the aSPICE and Opaque Android clients and tried to follow this slightly outdated doc:


to deploy an all-in-one self-hosted engine using the command-line.

I started with a clean CentOS 8 installation, set up an NFS server and tested that mounts work from the local host and other hosts, opened all ports with firewalld to my LAN and localhost (but left firewalld enabled).

During the run of 
hosted-engine --deploy
I got the following error:
