2:50 p.m.
Hy,
I am trying to install ovirt 4.5 on a 4-host cluster running Centos Stream 8, but the
engine does not start and the whole process fails.
Here is my procedure
dnf install centos-release-ovirt45
dnf module reset virt
dnf module enable virt:rhel
dnf install ovirt-engine-appliance
dnf install ovirt-hosted-engine-setup
The latest version of ansible [ansible-core 2.13] uses python3.9 and the installation
fails because some python3.9 modules are missing
[python39-netaddr, python39-jmespath] and cannot be installed [conflict python3-jmespath].
So I downgraded ansible to ansible-core 2.12
dnf downgrade ansible-core
Now
hosted-engine-setup --deploy --4
goes proceed further but stops because it cannot start the engine
[ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Wait for the host to be up]
[ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Notify the user about a failure]
[ ERROR ] fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg":
"Host is not up, please check logs, perhaps also on the engine machine"}
I looked into the log file
/var/log//ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-ansible-bootstrap_local_vm-20221007132728-yp7cd1.log
and I found the following error:

Needless to say
firewalld and libvirtd are both up
and virsh net-list gives:

------------------------------------------------
;vdsmdummy; active no no
default active no yes
I googled around without success.
Has anyone had similar problems?
End of past July I installed Ovirt on another cluster running Centos Stream 8 following
the procedure I just described with no problem.
If needed I can post all log files.
Thanks for the help.
Best
Andrea
