Looking for some help/suggestions to correct an issue I'm having. I have a 3 host HA setup running a hosted-engine and gluster storage. The hosts are identical hardware configurations and have been running for several years very solidly. I was performing an upgrade to 4.1. 1st host when fine. The second upgrade didn't go well...On server reboot, it went into kernel panic and I had to load previous kernel to diagnose.
I couldn't get it out of panic and I had to revert the system to the previous kernel which was a big PITA. I updated it to current and verified installation of ovirt/vdsm. Everything seemed to be ok, but vdsm won't start. Gluster is working fine. It appears I have a authentication issue with libvirt. I'm getting the message "libvirt: XML-RPC error : authentication failed: authentication failed" which seems to be the core issue.
I've looked at all the past issues/resolutions to this issue and tried them, but I can't get it to work. For example, I do a vdsm-tool configure --force and I get this...
Checking configuration status...
abrt is already configured for vdsm
lvm is configured for vdsm
libvirt is already configured for vdsm
SUCCESS: ssl configured to true. No conflicts
Current revision of multipath.conf detected, preserving
Running configure...
Reconfiguration of abrt is done.

raise RuntimeError("Set password failed: %s" % (err,))
RuntimeError: Set password failed: ['saslpasswd2: invalid parameter supplied']
...and help would be greatly appreciated. I'm not a linux/ovirt expert by any means, but I desperately need to get this setup back to being stable. This happened many months ago and I gave up fixing, but I really need to get this back online again.
Thank you
