[ovirt-users] Re: Actual oVirt install questions

Thank you. I read through the "ovirt-imageio: can't upload / download" thread, and your brief glossary was very helpful. Perhaps it would make sense to put some basic terminology like that somewhere in the official oVirt docs? I feel like there are a million different ways to install and configure oVirt, and it has taken me quite a bit of time to figure out the differences. I took your advice, and figured out how to get the "standalone engine" installed and running. I'm now able to log into the oVirt Admin Portal, view / create Datacenters, etc.. At the risk of creating a redundant thread, I'm going to reply to this thread about a problem I'm having uploading ISOs through the Admin Portal. I can't do it! Perhaps my issue is related to the same issue Michael is facing in the thread I just referenced - ovirt-imageio: can't upload/download. I have the standalone install: [dwhite@dev1-centos ~]$ sudo yum info ovirt-engine | grep Version Version : 4.4.1.10 [dwhite@dev1-centos ~]$ sudo systemctl status ovirt-imageio ● ovirt-imageio.service - oVirt ImageIO Daemon Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/ovirt-imageio.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: active (running) since Fri 2020-08-21 19:16:28 EDT; 49min ago Main PID: 1435 (ovirt-imageio) Tasks: 3 (limit: 409555) Memory: 18.8M CGroup: /system.slice/ovirt-imageio.service └─1435 /usr/libexec/platform-python -s /usr/bin/ovirt-imageio Aug 21 19:16:28 dev1-centos.office.barredowlweb.com systemd[1]: Starting oVirt ImageIO Daemon... Aug 21 19:16:28 dev1-centos.office.barredowlweb.com systemd[1]: Started oVirt ImageIO Daemon. This is of course a new, default install. I have created a data directory for VM images, as well as ISOs: [dwhite@dev1-centos ~]$ ls -la /data/ total 0 drwxr-xr-x. 4 vdsm kvm 31 Aug 19 20:49 . dr-xr-xr-x. 19 root root 260 Aug 19 20:28 .. drwxr-xr-x. 3 vdsm kvm 50 Aug 21 20:12 images drwxr-xr-x. 3 vdsm kvm 50 Aug 21 20:12 iso I am now trying to upload an ISO through the Admin Portal by going to Storage -> Disks -> Upload -> Start. My client machine is Ubuntu. I click "Test Connection" and I get the error message: Connection to ovirt-imageio-proxy service has failed. Make sure the service is installed, configured, and ovirt-engine certificate is registered as a valid CA in the browser. I downloaded the certificate by clicking on the link provided, and saved it into /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/ I then ran: sudo update-ca-certificates Then I reloaded the oVirt admin portal. I'm still getting the error message. Any advice here? Or am I running into the same problem that Michael has run into?
