Hi,
You need to make sure resolv.conf is correct (both on the host AND on the
engine vm).
So: dig hostname
(without the @local-ip)
As for the VM not coming up... I'm not sure how to delay "engine-setup"
run. I presume you're running an engine appliance -- I ran my own CentOS
install on the engine. The logs imply it's suggesting you can access the
engine VM console, but maybe it's exiting quickly?

I tested dnsmasq from the host by

Worked fine.
The engine VM never comes up to the point where I can access it via the
console...
