Hi,

It's always easy to wipe and start fresh but windows style of administration has a huge drawback - you don't know why and what happened to cause it.
I have learned a lot while trying to recover from various problems and I would recommend you to at least give it a try.
You have a symptom and a hypothesis. Regenerate the engine's and all hosts certificates and see how it will affect your setup.

Best Regards,
Strahil Nikolov

I have a small home oVirt 4.5 deployment that was struggling a bit and I think I've only made things worse.  I was seeing some SSL errors in various places but couldn't find any evidence of an expired cert though maybe I overlooked something.  At present, it looks like the most immediate problem is that the engine.log is showing SyncNetworkProviderCommand fails saying EngineException: (Failed with error Unsupported or unrecognized SSL message and code 5050).  For now, I'm only concerning myself to one Host that had been running VMs until I tried restarting everything from a power off.  I take it that the sync failure prevents this Host from becoming active.

I had successfully been using this setup for many years.  I do have my own web cert on the engine signed by my CA.  While I was getting this same "code 5050" error before with things like ovirt-imageio (what prompted my initial digging), now I'm afraid I've only made things more complex.  See, I was running FreeIPA on a pair of VMs.  In the past, this pair of VMs would auto-start once the oVirt Engine and Hosts were going and I had no issue.  But now I wonder to what extent OSCP being unreachable might affect the SSL errors.

What's the best/easiest/safest way out of this mess?  Should I just wipe ovirt-engine of all the non-rpm provided files in /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ and redo the engine-setup?  I'm afraid of making things worse before I begin attempting that.
