Hi,
I'm just trying to set up ovirt 3.5 for testing and am unable to get hosted engine
installed. The problem appears to be something to do with multipath iscsi setup. I run
'hosted-engine --deploy' and answer all the questions. See the config preview
below.
--== CONFIGURATION PREVIEW ==--
Engine FQDN : ovirt.domain.local
Bridge name : ovirtmgmt
SSH daemon port : 22
Firewall manager : iptables
Gateway address : 192.168.42.254
Host name for web application : hosted_engine
iSCSI Target Name :
iqn.2014-10.storage.domain.san0:iscsi0
iSCSI Portal port : 3260
Host ID : 1
iSCSI LUN ID : 0
Image size GB : 25
iSCSI Portal IP Address : 10.50.0.200
iSCSI Portal user : myuser
Console type : vnc
Memory size MB : 4096
MAC address : 00:16:3e:23:b4:c2
Boot type : cdrom
Number of CPUs : 2
ISO image (for cdrom boot) : /tmp/CentOS-7.0-1406-x86_64-DVD.iso
CPU Type : model_Nehalem
At the iscsi target question it shows both target names (for each of the multipath
options) but you only seem to be able to choose one. After confirming the settings above
I get the following.

The /dev/mapper leads me to believe it's a multipath issue. I noticed this Bugzilla
entry when looking into the issue so it appears at least one other person is experiencing
the same issue.
