Hi, Thanks, I solved this problem before by means of executing these commands: su - postgres -s/bin/bash psql -d ovirt_engine_history CREATE ROLE ovirt_engine_history_grafana; ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES FOR ROLE ovirt_engine_history IN SCHEMA public GRANT SELECT ON TABLES TO ovirt_engine_history_grafana; ALTER ROLE ovirt_engine_history_grafana WITH ENCRYPTED PASSWORD ‘my_password'; ALTER ROLE ovirt_engine_history_grafana WITH LOGIN; my_password from: /etc/ovirt-engine-dwh/ovirt-engine-dwhd.conf.d/10-setup-grafana-database.conf

Hi,
I did this and still struck at that Grafana stage.
CREATE ROLE ovirt_engine_history_grafana; ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES FOR ROLE ovirt_engine_history IN SCHEMA public GRANT SELECT ON TABLES TO ovirt_engine_history_grafana; ALTER ROLE ovirt_engine_history_grafana WITH PASSWORD ‘my_password’;
You are probably missing pg_hba.conf configuration, see e.g. https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/data_warehouse_guide/#Allowing_Read_Only... .
How to delete Grafana completely from old setup???
I don't think we have this documented anywhere.
If you only want to get rid of the setup issue, it's probably enough to edit /etc/ovirt-engine-setup.conf.d/20-setup-ovirt-post.conf, changing the line 'OVESETUP_GRAFANA_CORE/enable=bool:True' to 'OVESETUP_GRAFANA_CORE/enable=bool:False'.
This will not "delete Grafana completely", only make engine-setup ignore it.
I don’t need it.
Thanks in advance.

I had a similar issue.
for me, taking the password from /etc/ovirt-engine-dwh/ovirt-engine-dwhd.conf.d/10-setup-grafana-database.conf (GRAFANA_DB_PASSWORD)
and set that password in postgres for the user ovirt_engine_history_grafana did the trick.

Hi, I have oVirt engine 4.4.7 running on dedicated PC (not hosted engine). After several unsuccessful upgrade attempts of 4.4.7 to 4.4.10 decided to install clean 4.4.10 and migrate data.

I am sorry to note that your issue was most likely caused by '--no-restore-permissions', although the documentation (including --help/manpage) does not hint about this at all. You might want to open a doc bug to document this, or even an RFE bug, to make this a separate option.
for a long time, it was mandatory to pass either --no-restore-permissions or --restore-permissions:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1220791
But I recently changed this to default to --restore-permissions:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1821018
With --restore-permissions, if you previously manually created extra users and gave them access permissions, e.g. using the doc in above link, --mode=restore could not know the passwords for these users, and created them with random passwords, outputting "- extra user '${extrau}' having grants on database ${database}, created with a random password":
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1369757
But for grafana, this isn't true - the password is saved in the above-mentioned conf, and so --mode=restore can (and does) create the user with the saved password:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1837460
Bottom line:
I now think that --restore-permissions almost always makes sense, therefore changed it to be the default.
If you have scripts/procedures that pass --no-restore-permissions, I recommend rethinking these and considering dropping it altogether, relying on the default, or passing --restore-permissions.
A scenario I can think of where '--no-restore-permissions' does make sense: If you do have extra users you created for some other applications to access the DWH DB, and would rather not have a restore procedure replace their passwords to random ones, but prefer having your restore procedure handle this manually - restore/setup with --no-restore-permissions, then manually add the users+passwords you need and give them permissions.
