[ovirt-users] Re: self-hosted engine lost password

Hi,

I'd suggest to # set global maintenance mode hosted-engine --set-maintenance --mode=global # shutdown the engine VM hosted-engine --vm-shutdown # start the engine VM in paused mode with: hosted-engine --vm-start-paused # set VNC password hosted-engine --add-console-password # connect to the VM via VNC # resume HE VM /usr/bin/virsh -c qemu:///system?authfile=/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/virsh_auth.conf resume HostedEngine # quick go back to grub menu on the engine VM and follow this: https://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/ResetRootPassword
