[ovirt-users] Re: Enable a cluster node to run the hosted engine

Hi there,
currently my team is evaluating oVirt and we're also testing several fail scenarios,
backup and so on.
One scenario was:
- hyperconverged oVirt cluster with 3 nodes
- self-hosted engine
- simulate the break down of one of the nodes by power off
- to replace it make a clean install of a new node and reintegrate it in the cluster
How exactly did you do that?
Actually everything worked out fine. The new installed node and related bricks (vmstore,
data, engine) were added to the existing Gluster storage and it was added to the oVirt
cluster (as host).
But there's one remaining problem: The new host doesn't have the grey crown,
which means it's unable to run the hosted engine. How can I achieve that?
I also found out that the ovirt-ha-agent and ovirt-ha-broker isn't started/enabled on
that node. Reason is that the /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf doesn't
exist. I guess this is not only a problem concerning the hosted engine, but also for HA
VM's.
When you add a host to the engine, one of the options in the dialog is
to deploy it as a hosted-engine.
If you don't, you won't get this crown, nor these services, nor its
status in 'hosted-engine --vm-status'.
If you didn't, perhaps try to move to maintenance and reinstall,
adding this option.
If you did choose it, that's perhaps a bug - please check/share
relevant logs (e.g. in /var/log/ovirt-engine, including host-deploy/).
Best regards,
Thank you for any advice and greetings,
Marcus
