There are 2 postnotes: 1. after the engine finally run correctly, the ansible playbook want to copy it under the hestorage. the problem here is in the recipe: ``` /usr/share/ansible/collections/ansible_collections/ovirt/ovirt/roles/hosted_engine_setup/tasks/create_target_vm/03_hosted_engine_final_tasks.yml: - name: Inject network configuration with guestfish ansible.builtin.command: >- guestfish -a {{ local_vm_disk_path }} --rw -i copy-in "{{ he_local_vm_dir }}/ifcfg-eth0" /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts {{ ":" }} selinux-relabel /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 force{{ ":" }}true environment: LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND: direct LANG: en_US.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES: en_US.UTF-8 LC_ALL: en_US.UTF-8 changed_when: true ``` This part want to inject into the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts the file ifcfg-eth0 but in almalinux 10.1 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts is deprecated and so the command fail. You can solve issuing in the ovirt-engine before this playbook: `install -o root -d /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts` 2. we have a problem with dwh daemon. It doesn't start because Almalinux 10.1 lack of com/ongres/scram/common/stringprep/StringPreparation java class. See https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-dwh/issues/78 for my solution
