[ovirt-users] Re: Cannot add new host to Ovirt

In case it is useful to anyone.
I found the problem.
The permissions on the ovirt hosted-engine for the /etc/pki/ovirt-engine were
root.root
I changed them to ovirt.ovirt and I was able to add the host without issue.
I have no idea why root ended up being the owner of that folder.
Thanks for the report!
Is there any chance it was due to an oVirt bug? And not something else - a human
mistake, some other software, etc.?
If so, perhaps you can still try finding out a bit more information about this,
by checking the directory's timestamp (in case you still kept it
somewhere before
fixing) and trying to find what was running during this. If you do
find anything,
please report. Thanks!
There was no hint anywhere in the logs that I could see indicating that there was a
problem with these permissions.
I didn't try to reproduce, so only guess:
One might consider this a bug in ansible - as in: ansible was told to
use some private key, it failed to read it, but the log does not
indicate this. You might want to report it (I think as an issue on
their github repo).
All is good now.
