Can anyone explain to me how to use the “screen -d -r” option

Start the deployment script:

# hosted-engine --deploy

To escape the script at any time, use the Ctrl+D keyboard combination to abort deployment. In the event of session timeout or connection disruption, run screen -d -r to recover the deployment session.

Yours Sincerely,

Henni

        ssh is disconnecting within 1 second to 30 seconds, impossible to perform anything.

ssh to the host? Or to the engine vm?

If to the host, then you have some severe networking issues, I suggest to handle this first.

Command line install " hosted-engine --deploy" it gets to this point (see below) and disconnect and thereafter it is disconnecting ssh and http:// FQDN:9090

"[ INFO  ] TASK [ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Check engine VM health]"

https "Certificate invalid"

after I run " /usr/sbin/ovirt-hosted-engine-cleanup" I am able to ssh

Yours Sincerely,

Henni

Did you try to ssh to the engine VM?

Do you see it running on the host?

Due to env issues (communication etc.)? Or oVirt-specific ones (bugs)?

We do have an open bug about allowing to reconnect to cockpit in such cases, but it's still NEW for several years now:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1422544

If this is your only problem, I suggest to try and work around it somehow:

Either by running the browser through which you connect to cockpit in some machine closer (network-wise) to the host you install on (and connect to that machine from your laptop using means that allow reconnection, some remote desktop or whatever), or using the command line tool/guide, which you can/should run inside tmux (and thus easily reconnect if needed).

Good luck and best regards,
