Re: [ovirt-users] missing hvc0 device on hosted engine
Hi,
we know about this and we already pushed patches that should resolve
this issue in 4.1.1 (one was merged today in fact).
We track the issue here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1364132 and the patch that
should resolve it is here: https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/71472/
Applying the change manually or waiting for a new snapshot package in
http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.1-snapshot/rpm/<distro>/noarch/
might help you in the meantime.
Best regards

I’ve been running oVirt 4.0.x for a while now and upgraded the engine

hosts to 4.1. Sometimes, on both 4.0 and 4.1, trying to run the
“hosted-engine –console” command gives the following results:
The engine VM is running on this host
Connected to domain HostedEngine
Escape character is ^]
error: internal error: cannot find character device <null>
Once this starts occurring, it never works again.
When this happens I note that the hvc0 device does not exist in /dev and
therefore there is no getty process running for that device. I notice that
the “Enable VirtIO serial console” box is not checked on the hosted engine
VM but when I check it and click OK it’s unchecked again when I open up the
edit window again.
How do I get console control back from my oVirt hosts?
Thank you,
