Do I understand this correct, is OVirt installing the SSL certificate for the domains or do I have to do it manually?

 

If I have to install my own SSL for the domain and stored on my servers, can I use Let's Encrypt?

 

 

Yours Sincerely,

 

Henni

/etc/hosts

But if I do ping engine01.xyz.co.za

 

[root@node01 ~]# ping engine01.worldhostess.co.za

PING engine01.xyz.co.za (192.168.222.122) 56(84) bytes of data.

The xyz.co.za domain is pointing (redirect) to the server IP, maybe that is the problem

Installing oVirt as a self-hosted engine using the Cockpit web interface and AGAIN the cockpit start with the http without the default self-signed cert (https)

 

Any suggestions, I think this is my first problem.

Quick question, after installing Ovirt before “hosted-engine –deploy” is the website with http? Not https.

 

You mean the cockpit interface? On port 9090? That's not part of oVirt, it's in every el8 machine. Should be https, by default with a self-signed cert.

Hi Henni,

So,

your host is named node01.xyz.co.za and it resolves to 156.38.192.226,

then you are trying to create a VM named engine01.xyz.co.za and you are trying to configure it with a static set IPv4 address which is still 156.38.192.226.
This is enough to explain all the subsequent networking issues.


Please try again using two distinct IP addresses for the node and the engine VM.

 

Thanks, Simone!

 


ciao,

Simone

Can anyone explain to me how to use the “screen -d -r” option

 

Start the deployment script:

# hosted-engine --deploy

To escape the script at any time, use the Ctrl+D keyboard combination to abort deployment. In the event of session timeout or connection disruption, run screen -d -r to recover the deployment session.

 

 

Yours Sincerely,

 

Henni

        ssh is disconnecting within 1 second to 30 seconds, impossible to perform anything.

 

ssh to the host? Or to the engine vm?

 

If to the host, then you have some severe networking issues, I suggest to handle this first.

 


Command line install " hosted-engine --deploy" it gets to this point (see below) and disconnect and thereafter it is disconnecting ssh and http:// FQDN:9090

"[ INFO  ] TASK [ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Check engine VM health]"

https "Certificate invalid"

after I run " /usr/sbin/ovirt-hosted-engine-cleanup" I am able to ssh

Yours Sincerely,

Henni

Did you try to ssh to the engine VM?

Do you see it running on the host?

>

Due to env issues (communication etc.)? Or oVirt-specific ones (bugs)?

We do have an open bug about allowing to reconnect to cockpit in such cases, but it's still NEW for several years now:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1422544

If this is your only problem, I suggest to try and work around it somehow:

Either by running the browser through which you connect to cockpit in some machine closer (network-wise) to the host you install on (and connect to that machine from your laptop using means that allow reconnection, some remote desktop or whatever), or using the command line tool/guide, which you can/should run inside tmux (and thus easily reconnect if needed).

Good luck and best regards,
