[ovirt-users] Re: Replace bad Host from a 9 Node hyperconverged setup 4.3.3

Definitely is a challenge trying to replace a bad host. So let me tell you what I see and have done so far: 1.-I have a host that went bad due to HW issues. 2.-This bad host is still showing in the compute --> hosts section. 3.-This host was part of a hyperconverged setup with Gluster. 4.-The gluster bricks for this server show up with a "?" mark inside the volumes under Storage ---> Volumes ---> Myvolume ---> bricks 5.-Under Compute ---> Hosts --> mybadhost.mydomain.com the host is in maintenance mode. 6.-When I try to remove that host (with "Force REmove" ticked) I keep getting: Operation Canceled Error while executing action: mybadhost.mydomain.com - Cannot remove Host. Server having Gluster volume. Note: I have also confirmed "host has been rebooted" Since the bad host was not recoverable (it was fried), I took a brand new server with the same specs and installed oVirt 4.3.3 on it and have it ready to add it to the cluster with the same hostname and IP but I cant do this until I remove the old entries on the WEB UI of the Hosted Engine VM. If this is not possible would I really need to add this new host with a different name and IP? What would be the correct and best procedure to fix this? Note that my setup is a 9 node setup with hyperconverged and replica 3 bricks and in a distributed replicated volume scenario. Thanks
