For me, what happens every few months is the Hosted Engine fills up its /var/log, specifically the httpd folder.  Once this partition is full, the HE only runs for a few seconds before shutting down and trying a different host. Obviously that makes no difference, so it just starts & stops over and over until the log dir is emptied. so do a hosted_engine --vm-stop, and then --vm-start. SSH into it and take a look at the partitions disk space.

Hello,


Did you try starting using hosted-engine --vm-start

Please check/share all relevant logs. 
from engine and hosts, and at least:

engine.log & 
/var/log/vdsm/*

Hello.
I have a 4 host infrastructure in ovirt and a few days ago the hosted-engine was turned off and I cannot turn it on from any host. Any ideas? Thanks.
