I installed 2 Ovirt 4.2.2 servers and installed the hosted-engine-appliance on one of them. I used the web interface to add storage domains and add the second host but suddenly I lost connection to the hosted-engine.

I tried rebooting the host but the reboot just hangs. The server is still pingable but the server console is black. I eventually did a hard reset of the server. Currently the host is back up-and-running but the hosted-engine seems to be unable to start.

I am getting lots of e-mails

     ovirt-hosted-engine state transition EngineDown-EngineStart
     ovirt-hosted-engine state transition EngineStart-EngineStarting
     ovirt-hosted-engine state transition EngineStarting-EngineForceStop
     ovirt-hosted-engine state transition EngineForceStop-EngineDown
     ...

ad infinitum

I tried reinstalling the whole setup but the same thing happened again.

I was hoping to be able to access the console of the hosted-engine, but I don't know how to access it without using the hosted-engine itself.

Any ideas what might be happening?
