Subject: [ovirt-users] Clean up Hosted Engine entry in oVirt console
Hello oVirt Forum members:
We are currently using oVirt Version 3.5.0.1-1.el6. We tried to migrate to
use hosted-engine model.
Somehow the hosted-engine got created, but the migration failed.
Please give more details, it's not completely clear what you did.
Let's define:
oldenginemachine - the machine where you ran the engine before migration attempt
hostedenginehost - the host where you tried to run hosted-engine --deploy
newenginemachine - the vm created by 'hosted-engine --deploy' where you were
supposed to setup an engine (by migrating data from oldenginemachine)
Was hostedenginehost registered in oldenginemachine before? Or is it a new
host?
Was the engine there down while you tried migrating?
Is there a chance that it was up, and 'hosted-engine --deploy' connected to
it and tried doing stuff there?
So I ran
engine-setup to remove the installation.
Where?
However, I am now leave with a VM
entry in our oVirt console called HostedEngine.
You mean, in oldenginemachine?
Tried to remove the entry by
clicking on the Remove button on the console gives a message:
Error while executing action:
HostedEngine:
Cannot remove VM. This VM is not managed by the engine.
Indeed.
As far as I can tell, all files that were touched by the hosted-engine are
reverted back to before install state. So I am not sure where that
HostedEngine entry is coming from. Is that a record in the database that I
need to clean up manually from the db?
Indeed.
Not sure exactly how, but first let's be sure what the problem is.
Best,
