Hard coded time out. The system waits five min before tiring.

Hi, is there a working way to add a host with the current beta code? I tried the latest node iso and also a plain Fedora 17 with the latest vdsm packages but in both cases the registration seems to succeed but the installation seems to fail. Could you provide more information about the failure? is this the issue reported by Trey Dockendorf in http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2012-June/002466.html
Actually after seeing the "/tmp/vds_bootstrap.64713.log" bit in that mail I was able to find out what the problem was and fix it. Logs should really go into /var/log that where I was trying to find information on what was going on.
The installation seems to succeed now and the Host is displayed as "Up". I got stuck almost 5 minutes in the state "Reboot" though even though the node was up in a few seconds after the reboot. What exactly is causing this long delay? Is the engine trying to contact vdsm or is the engine waiting for vdsm to connect to the engine?
Yes I figured as much but why does it time out? Who is responsible for re-establishing the connection after the reboot and why is that timing out?
ovirt-engine will wait for "ServerRebootTimeout" before trying to connect to the host. IIRC that defaults to 5 minutes, but you can obviously change it. We need to change the mechanism to be more optimistic - eg. rather than wait for ServerRebootTimeout seconds, waiting for 30 seconds, try to connect and then retry every 30 seconds until ServerRebootTimeout expires.
