Hi all, my ovirt cluster has got 3 Hypervisors runnig Centos 7.5.1804 vdsm is 4.20.39.1-1.el7, ovirt engine is 4.2.4.5-1.el7, the storage systems are HP MSA P2000 and 2050 (fibre channel).
I need to stop one of the hypervisors for maintenance but this system is the storage pool manager.
For this reason I decided to manually activate SPM in one of the other nodes but this operation is not successful.
Why would you do that ? Just put the host in maintenance and the system will evacuate all VMs and another host will be promoted as SPM . Once the host is in maintenance - you can proceed with your tasks.
P.S: Don't forget to remove the mainteance mode once you are over.
Best Regards, Strahil Nikolov Hi Strahil, I did not tell you that this is the first thing I tried but it didn't work because SPM can't be activated in another host,
