Are you sure the host with the patch applied was used to start the engine? Btw, you need to restart the ovirt-ha-agent service first before restarting the engine VM.

Hi,

Thanks for bringing the issue to our attention and for answering the questions.

There is a patch to fix this: https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/75515/
After applying the patch a restart to the hosted engine vm is required (not just the engine).

Let me know if you are still experiencing issues with this.

Thanks,
Jenny

Hi all,

I have managed to reproduce this issue and opened a bug for tracking it: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1441570 .

There is no solution yet, but I would appreciate if any who encountered this issue will answer some questions:
1. Is the console button greyed out in the UI?
2. On the hosted engine host, does the command hosted-engine --console fails?
     If it fails, try upgrading ovirt-hosted-engine-ha on the hosted engine host. We had a bug related to this issue that was fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1364132).
     After upgrade and restart of the vm, this should work, and you should be able to connect to the console.
3. On the hosted engine host look at the content of: /var/run/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/vm.conf
    Does it contain a graphical device? Or a console device?

Thanks,
Jenny

hi,

I have similiar issue(I also started my mailthread) after upgrade 4.0 to 4.1

Version 4.1.1.8-1.el7.centos (before it was some 4.1.0.x or similiar - update not fixed it)

to run VM I have to set in Console tab Headless mode - without it I got libvirtd segfault(logs attached in my mailthread).

So I am able to run VMs only without Console - do you also have to set headless before run VM?

I noticed that libvirt-daemon was also upgraded to 2.0 version during ovirt upgrade - I dont think that 4.1 was not testes due to such libvirtd upgrade... but maybe?

Hi,

After updating to 4.1.1 i'm observing the same behavior, HE without any console.
Even when trying to edit the HE VMs it doesn't change anything, Graphics stays to NONE.

Thanks for any Help.

Hello,

When upgrading my test setup from 4.0 to 4.1, my engine vm lost it's console (from SPICE to None in GUI)

My test setup :
2 manually built hosts using centos 7.3, ovirt 4.1
1 manually built hosted engine centos 7.3, oVirt 4.1.0.4-el7, accessible with SPICE console via GUI

I updated ovirt-engine from 4.1.0 to 4.1.1 by doing on engine :
- yum update
- engine-setup
- reboot engine

When accessing 4.1.1 GUI, Graphics is set to "None" on "Virtual Machines" page, with "console button" greyed out (all other VMs have the same Graphics set to the same value as before)
I tried to edit engine VM settings, and console options are same as before (SPLICE, QXL).

I'm hopping this is not a new feature, since if we loose network on engine, console is the only way to debug...

Is this a bug?

ps. I was able to reproduce this bug 2 times
