I've attached a full debug packet below.  I include the log file from ovirt-hosted-engine-setup.  I include relevant cmd line info.  I include info from the command line where epdb has a breakpoint in playbook.py from ansible itself.  I also include info from commands I ran after it failed.  I also include attached the ferried over script in /root/.ansible/tmp that is run.

It seems to me that somehow it is not getting the right permissions even though the playbook has:

- name: Copy configuration archive to storage

    command: dd bs=20480 count=1 oflag=direct if="{{ LOCAL_VM_DIR }}/{{ he_conf_disk_details.disk.image_id }}" of="{{ he_conf_disk_path }}"

Here's the log.

So the command that it says it ran is:

dd bs=20480 count=1 oflag=direct if=/var/tmp/localvmHaWb6G/1cce8df2-1810-4063-b4e2-e19a2c5b1909 of=/rhev/data-center/mnt/node.local:_srv_data/3c7485ea-14e3-40c1-b627-f89a819ed1d6/images/2c1f7c2f-b8f7-46d4-ac66-8ff1e9649e29/1cce8df2-1810-4063-b4e2-e19a2c5b1909

But we all know that was done with:

  - name: Copy configuration archive to storage

    command: dd bs=20480 count=1 oflag=direct if="{{ LOCAL_VM_DIR }}/{{ he_conf_disk_details.disk.image_id }}" of="{{ he_conf_disk_path }}"

    become_user: vdsm

    become_method: sudo

    changed_when: True

    tags: [ 'skip_ansible_lint' ]

So I manually replicated with `sudo vdsm dd bs=20480 count=1 if=/var/tmp/localvmHaWb6G/1cce8df2-1810-4063-b4e2-e19a2c5b1909 of=/rhev/data-center/mnt/node.local:_srv_data/3c7485ea-14e3-40c1-b627-f89a819ed1d6/images/2c1f7c2f-b8f7-46d4-ac66-8ff1e9649e29/1cce8df2-1810-4063-b4e2-e19a2c5b1909`

And it works when I manually do it.  Though I think I didn't use the oflag=direct (Just realised this)

I eventually put a pause task directly preceeding it with debug output that showed the file paths.  I manually ran the command and it worked.  Then let it do it....failed.  I checked all the permissions e.g.  vdsm:kvm.  All looks good from a filesystem point of view.  I'm beginning (naively) to suspect a race condition for the file access problem...but have come nowhere close to solving it.

Can you suggest a good way to continue executing the install process from the create_target_vm.yml playbook (with proper variables and context from otopi etc)?  I currently have to restart the entire process over again and wait quite a while for it to circle back around.  

I have since discovered epdb and I've set breakpoints directly in playbook.py of ansible just to see better log output.  I insert epdb.serve and use netcat to connect since epdb on python 2.7.5 and up seems to have problems using epdb.connect() itself.

Heyo everyone.  I'm trying to debug hosted-engine --deploy.  It is failing in `Copy configuration archive to storage` in `create_target_vm.yml` from `hosted-engine --deploy`.  My general and most important query here is how to get good debug output from ansible through hosted-engine.  I'm running hosted-engine through an ssh session.

I can't figure out how to get good debug output from ansible within that workflow.  I see it's running through otopi, I tried setting typical `debugger: on_failed` hooks etc and tried many incantations on the command line and config files to get ansible to help me out.  The debugger: directive and other debugger related ansible config file stuff wouldn't result in any debugger popping up.  I also can't seem to pass normal -vvvv flags to hosted-engine either and get it to ansible.  Ultimately I tried to use a `pause` directive and it complained that it was in a non-interactive shell.  I figured it might be the result of my ssh session so I enabled tty allocation with -t -t.  It did not resolve the issue.

I eventually wrote-my-own/stole a callback_plugin that checks an environmental variable and enables `display.verbosity = int(v)` since I can't seem to pass typical -vvvv stuff to ansible through `hosted-engine --deploy`.  It give me the best info that I have so far.   But it wont give me enough to debug issues around Gathering Facts or what looks like a sudo/permission problem in `Copy configuration archive to storage` in `create_target_vm.yml`.  I took and used the exact command that they use manually and it works when I run it manually (But I can't get debug output to show me the exact sudo command being executed), hence my interest in passing -vvvv or equivalent to ansible through `hosted-engine`.  I intentionally disabled the VM_directory cleanup so that I could execute the same stuff.

So....after all that...what is a good way to get deep debug info from hosted-engine ansible stuff?

You should already find all the relevant log entries in a file called /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-ansible-create_target_vm-{timestamp}-{hash}.log

Can you please share it?

 

Or does anyone have intuition for the possible sudo problem?
