Re: [ovirt-users] hosted-engine network

Hi all, Yanir is right, the local vm.conf is just a cache of what was retrieved from the engine. I might be interesting to check what the configuration of the engine VM shows when edited using the webadmin. Or enable debug logging [1] for hosted engine and add the OVF dump we send there now and then (the xml representation of the VM). [1] See /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/agent-log.conf and change the level for root logger to DEBUG Best regards Martin Sivak On Wed, Jun 7, 2017 at 11:12 AM, Yanir Quinn <yquinn(a)redhat.com&gt; wrote: > If im not mistaken the values of vm.conf are repopulated from the database , > but i wouldn't recommend meddling with DB data. > maybe the network device wasn't set properly during the hosted engine setup > ? > > On Wed, Jun 7, 2017 at 11:47 AM, Arsène Gschwind <arsene.gschwind(a)unibas.ch&gt; > wrote: >> Hi, >> >> Any chance to get a hint how to change the vm.conf file so it will not be >> overwritten constantly? >> >> Thanks a lot. >> >> Arsène >> >> >> On 06/06/2017 09:50 AM, Arsène Gschwind wrote: >> >> Hi, >> >> I've migrated our oVirt engine to hosted-engine located on a FC storage >> LUN, so far so good. >> For some reason I'm not able to start the hosted-engine VM, after digging >> in the log files i could figured out the reason.
