Hi all,

Please find attached the agent.log DEBUG and a screenshot from webui

Thanks a lot

Best regards,

Hi all,

Yanir is right, the local vm.conf is just a cache of what was
retrieved from the engine.

I might be interesting to check what the configuration of the engine
VM shows when edited using the webadmin. Or enable debug logging [1]
for hosted engine and add the OVF dump we send there now and then (the
xml representation of the VM).

[1] See /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/agent-log.conf and change the
level for root logger to DEBUG

Best regards

If im not mistaken the values of vm.conf are repopulated from the database ,
but i wouldn't recommend meddling with DB data.
maybe the network device wasn't set properly during the hosted engine setup
?

Hi,

Any chance to get a hint how to change the vm.conf file so it will not be
overwritten constantly?

Thanks a lot.

Hi,

I've migrated our oVirt engine to hosted-engine located on a FC storage
LUN, so far so good.
For some reason I'm not able to start the hosted-engine VM, after digging
in the log files i could figured out the reason. The Network device was set
to "None" as follow:

devices={nicModel:pv,macAddr:00:16:3e:3a:6b:60,linkActive:true,network:None,deviceId:56cb4d71-13ff-42a8-bb83-7faef99fd3ea,address:{slot:0x03,bus:0x00,domain:0x0000,type:pci,function:0x0},device:bridge,type:interface}

I've created a new config file /var/run/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/vm.conf.new
and set the nic device to ovirtmgnt, the I could start the hosted-engine
using :
hosted-engine --vm-start
--vm-conf=var/run/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/vm.conf.new

The nic  device line in vm.conf.new looks like:

devices={nicModel:pv,macAddr:00:16:3e:3a:6b:60,linkActive:true,network:ovirtmgmt,deviceId:56cb4d71-13ff-42a8-bb83-7faef99fd3ea,address:{slot:0x03,bus:0x00,domain:0x0000,type:pci,function:0x0},device:bridge,type:interface}

I tried to find out a way to change this setting on vm.conf but it is
constantly rewritten, even when using the webui is say's:
HostedEngine:

There was an attempt to change Hosted Engine VM values that are locked.

Is there a way to modify/correct the hosted-engine vm.conf file so it will
stay and not be overwritten?

Thanks a lot for any hint/help

rgds,
arsène
