Hmmm, I think this explains the initial problem I saw, after doing setup; cleanup; setup The first setup will bump up the shmmax. The cleanup will remove ovirt-engine.conf. However if you don't reboot, shmmax remains boosted. The second setup will detect that shmmax is fine, and not create ovirt-engine.conf. A subsequent reboot will revert shmmax to the default value, and postgresql will fail to come up.
