Hi,
I have just migrated my dev cluster to the latest master, reinstalling
the engine VM and reimporting from a previous backup. I'm trying with
4.3.0-0.0.master.20180222192611.git01e6ace.el7.centos
I had a few problems:
- the documentation seems to be outdated, and I just find by searching
the archives that it's needed to add the two (undocumented) options
--he-remove-storage-vm --he-remove-hosts
- despite the fact I selected "No" to running the engine-setup command
in the VM (the ovirt appliance), the engine-setup is executed when
running hosted-engine --deploy, and as a result the procedure does not
stop allowing to reload the db backup. The only way I found was to put
the hosted-engine in global maintenance mode, stop the ovirt-engine, do
an engine-cleanup and reload the db, then it's possible to add the first
host in the GUI, but must be done manually
- after it's all done, I can see the hosted_storage is imported, but the
HostedEngine is not imported, and in the Events I see messages like this:
VDSM atlas-svc-18 command GetVolumeInfoVDS failed: Image path does not
exist or cannot be accessed/created:
(u'/rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/atlas-fsserv-07.roma1.infn.it:_atlas-engine-02/f02d7d5d-1459-48b8-bf27-4225cdfdce23/images/c815ec3f-6e31-4b08-81be-e515e803edce',)
the path here is clearly wrong, it should be
/rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/atlas-fsserv-07.roma1.infn.it:_atlas-engine-02/f02d7d5d-1459-48b8-bf27-4225cdfdce23/images/b7bc6468-438c-47e7-b7a4-7ed06b786da0/c815ec3f-6e31-4b08-81be-e515e803edce,
and I see the hosted_engine.conf in the shared storage has it correctly
set as vm_disk_id=b7bc6468-438c-47e7-b7a4-7ed06b786da0.
Any hint on what is not allowing the HostedEngine to be imported? I
didn't find a way to add other hosted engine nodes if the HE VM is not
imported in the cluster, like we were used in the past with the CLI
using hosted-engine --deploy on multiple hosts.
Thanks for any help,
Alessandro
