[ovirt-users] Re: oVirt Hosted Engine Offline Deployment

I think that first you need to install the appliance and then in offline mode ot should skip connecting to yum repos.

I'm trying to get oVirt up & running on a server in a network that has no access to the Internet. We do host mirrors of CentOS 7 & 8 repos (no Stream). I first tried the latest version of oVirt 4.4, however, I ran into an issue when trying to do the Hosted Engine deployment. The command I used was "hosted-engine --deploy --ansible-extra-vars=he_offline_deployment=true". But at some point, I get the following error: [ INFO  ] DNF Errors during downloading metadata for repository 'ovirt-4.4-centos-ceph-pacific':           - Status code: 404 for http://mirror.centos.org/centos/8-stream/storage/x86_64/ceph-pacific/repo... [ ERROR ] DNF Failed to download metadata for repo 'ovirt-4.4-centos-ceph-pacific': Cannot download repomd.xml: Cannot download repodata/repomd.xml: All mirrors were tried Seems like it's still trying to download something from the CentOS 8 Stream repo. So I figured that since we have the CentOS 7 repos hosted, I'll try oVirt v4.3. However, I don't see an option to do an "offline deployment" with this version. It says the "--ansible-extra-vars" option is invalid. I tried doing a regular deployment but it tries downloading from the oVirt repo: [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.hosted_enging_setup : Install ovirt-engine-appliance rpm] [ ERROR ] fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => ["attempts": 10, "changed": false, "msg": "Failure talking to yum: cannot retrieve metalink for repository: ovirt-4.3-epel/x86_64. Please verify its path and try again"} I can bring over a mirror of the ovirt-4.3 repo. I also see that there's some other repos in the "ovirt-4.3-dependencies.repo" file. Are those required for deploying the hosted engine VM as well? Or does anyone know if there's a way to do this deployment completely offline? Thank you for your time. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list -- users(a)ovirt.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave(a)ovirt.org Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/privacy-policy.html oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/GDWCIZ3X3OK...
