Hi list,
I have a hosted engine running on a CentOS 8. The engine and all the
VM's are stored on a 4-node gluster. I had some issues with the gluster
and then the hosted-engine stopped working (even though the
virtualization dashboard showed 4 virtual machines running). I tried to
"systemctl restart" the hosted-engine, but it failed. I try to reboot
the server and the hosted-engine still will not come up. Note that the
server has no issue mounting the gluster:
$ df

/rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/hydra1:_MRIData
$ ls -l

Where "hydra1" is one of my gluster nodes and MRIData is the volume name.
Here is the relevant snippet from /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/agent.log

I'm puzzled by that "Certificate common name not found", which I had not
seen before. The fqdn of the hosted engine resolves fine on the server,
so does the fqdn of the server itself. The ip address it seems to try to
use for the network is that of one of the university's gateways.
Any ideas ? Any way to debug this further ?
Thanks in advance,
