Dear all, lately the engine started notifying me about some "errors": "Failed to check for available updates on host XYZ with message 'Task Ensure Python3 is installed for CentOS/RHEL8 hosts failed to execute. Please check logs for more details" I do understand this is not something that can impact my cluster stability, since it's only a matter of checking updates, anyway it annoys me a lot. I checked the logs and apparently the issue is related to some repos that are missing/unresolved. Right now on my hosts I have these repos: ovirt-release44-4.4.8.3-1.el8.noarch epel-release-8-13.el8.noarch centos-stream-release-8.6-1.el8.noarch puppet5-release-5.0.0-5.el8.noarch The problems come from: Error: Failed to download metadata for repo 'ovirt-4.4-centos-gluster8': Cannot prepare internal mirrorlist: No URLs in mirrorlist Error: Failed to download metadata for repo 'ovirt-4.4-centos-opstools': Cannot prepare internal mirrorlist: No URLs in mirrorlist Error: Failed to download metadata for repo 'ovirt-4.4-openstack-victoria': Cannot download repomd.xml: Cannot download repodata/repomd.xml: All mirrors were tried If I disable these repos "yum update" can finish but then I get a large number of unresolved dependencies and "problems": Error: Problem 1: package cockpit-ovirt-dashboard-0.15.1-1.el8.noarch requires ansible, but none of the providers can be installed -

Any suggestion? Thanks, Andrea -- Andrea Chierici - INFN-CNAF Viale Berti Pichat 6/2, 40127 BOLOGNA Office Tel: +39 051 2095463 SkypeID ataruz --
