If you want to access the Console you can use the following:
hosted-engine --console [1]

If it doesn't work (with me sometimes it doesn't work) you can access the console via VNC:
hosted-engine --add-console-password --password=<password> [2]

If you just want to restart the VM you can do the following:
hosted-engine --vm-shutdown
# Check with --vm-status until the VM dies
hosted-engine --vm-start

Perform these procedures in global maintenance mode.

Hi Guys,

I've gone and shot myself in the foot - and I'm looking for some first-aid.

I've managed to remove the IP Address of the oVirt Self-Hosted Engine and so have lost contact with it (don't ask how - let's just say I f*cked-up). I *think* its still running, I've got it set to DHCP, and I've got access to the Host its running on, so my question(s) is:

- (The preferred method) How can I re-establish (console?) contact - I'm thinking via the Host Server and some kvm-commands, so I can issue a `dhclient` command
- (The most drastic) How can I get it to reboot ie is there a command / command sequence to do this

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

Dulux-Oz
