[ovirt-users] Re: Failing to restore a backup

Hi, thank you for your help. I think this is not a critical failure, and is not what failed the restore. > > > > Recently I tried the 4.3.11 beta and 4.4.1 and the error now is different: > > [ INFO ] Upgrading CA\n[ ERROR ] Failed to execute stage 'Misc configuration': (2, 'No such file or directory')\n[ INFO ] DNF Performing DNF transaction rollback\n This is part of 'engine-setup' output, which 'hosted-engine' runs inside the engine VM. If you can access the engine VM, you can try finding more information in /var/log/ovirt-engine/setup/* there. Otherwise, the hosted-engine deploy script might have managed to get a copy to /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/engine-logs*. Please check/share these. Thanks. Unfortunately the installation procedures when exiting, deletes the vm, hence I can't log in.

Here are the ERROR messages I got on the logs copied on the host: engine.log:2020-07-08 15:05:04,178+02 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.pm.FenceProxyLocator] (EE-ManagedScheduledExecutorService-engineScheduledThreadPool-Thread-89) [45a7e7f3] Can not run fence action on host '<erased_for_privacy>', no suitable proxy host was found.

Another option is to do the restore manually. To find relevant information, search the net for "enginevm_before_engine_setup". Later I will give it a try.
