Dear Simone,

Unfortunately remote_user didn't work, even removing all configuration of any kind of user reference and using a clean playbook didn't work. We had to move on from this deployment method.

A quick note, "wait for VM to flush buffers" was never finishing when doing the error handling, though technically pause: 10 should work, replacing it with a wait_for: and delegate_to: localhost was more reproducibly functional for us.

Lastly, doing a hosted-engine --deploy locally on the node works, but it seems host key checking is enabled, so the only way we could get the "Wait for VM" step to pass was to separately SSH to the HE from the node and import the host key into the known_hosts. Copying VM to storage worked perfectly in this situation (vdsm user become clearly is being fiddled with by our playbook somehow, but i really can't identify why).

Callum

Ok after some research, I think that despite answers like this:

ansible_user and remote_user may well be different:
This would suggest that the ansible_user is in fact overwriting the local task settings, so I'm trying the same again, but using remote_user not ansible_user and seeing what happens.

Will follow up with results.

Callum

Re-running same config sorted this error... Though we're back here:

- Clean NFS
- Task run as normal user
- name: Install oVirt Hosted Engine
  hosts: virthyp04.virt.in.bmrc.ox.ac.uk
  roles:
    - ovirt.hosted_engine_setup
- No overrides in ansible.cfg
- ansible_user=root set inside /etc/ansible/hosts

I can't see the command actually trying to do any sudo command for the `dd` - but it's clearly in the playbook it should be running the command as `vdsm` - is there an obvious next-step?

PLAY RECAP ***************************************************************************************************************************************************
virthyp04.virt.in.bmrc.ox.ac.uk : ok=205  changed=67   unreachable=0    failed=1

This works, when run on the hypervisor as root:
mount -t nfs 10.141.15.248:/export/virtman/hosted_storage /mnt

I can only suggest to check vdsm logs; maybe you still have some leftover.

Yep seems that at the top level it overwrites it:

- name: Install oVirt Hosted Engine
  roles:
    - ovirt.hosted_engine_setup
  become: true
  become_user: root

Going to try see if i can get it to work without them on. I have ansible_user=root for the host so shouldn't be needed, problem is it's in context of a playbook where there are global defaults for the infrastructure. Hopefully support for sudo will come in, but this would imply that if you had become_user: <sudouser> become_method: sudo, this would override the task-specific become settings. Might be harder to achieve the sudo support.

Should this task be running as the `vdsm` user - I imagine adding a become: true; and become_user: vdsm; would work?


Are you forcing 
    become: true
    become_user: root
or something like that at playbook level?
I'd expect that the same directive at role level will win being more specific but honestly I'm not 100% sure.

usually means that the engine failed to activate that storage domain; unfortunately engine error messages are not always that clear (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1554922 ) but this is often due to fact the the NFS share or the iSCSI lun or whatever you used wasn't really clean.
Are you manually cleaning it between one attempt and the next one?

Any ideas on this one? I can almost touch this deployment now... Looking at the command it should run as `vdsm` so should work fine, could this be SELinux?

Yes, it should be executed as vdsm user:

Did you tried executing it with -vvv ?
Can you please share the playbook you are using to trigger that role?

but are you really using it with ansible 2.8 alpha 1?
I'd strongly suggest to switch back to a stable release of ansible which is currently 2.7.9.

In the next ansible build it will be just a warning as for: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/54336

https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-ansible-hosted-engine-setup/pull/150/files already address this on ovirt-ansible-hosted-engine-setup to be compatible with future ansible releases.

Another issue, but this is likely due to randomised MAC addresses:

Seems it doesn't take into account reserved values when generating.

If not specified by the user,
a random unicast MAC address is randomly generated here:

for sure it's unicast but maybe we should make it more robust on reserved values.
Simply try again for now; I'll open an issue to track it, thanks!
 

I hope this feedback is valuable - I have a good feeling about the current deploy otherwise though.

Callum

I've attached the output of the ansible command as a log file, this is what happens when the IF bond0.910 is assigned the IP and `ovirtmgmt` is not defined on the host.

according to the logs ovirtmgmt is still there.

The host's ovirtmgmt network connection is a statically assigned IP on a VLAN on a bond, how should I be configuring this if not manually?

If you need to deploy over vlan 123 over bond0 simply configure a device exactly called bond0.123 and statically configure your IP address there.
Choose it for hosted-engine deployment, nothing more: ovirtmgmt will be automatically created over that device and the vlan ID will be set at engine level for the whole management network.

Callum

It's ok, migrating to 4.3.2 on the oVirt node (from 4.3.0) did the job of fixing it.

It is a bug if you intend on using the ovirtmgmt network to deploy your ansible from

This is a bit tricky: when the engine brings up the host it also creates the management bridge and this could lead to a temporary network down on the selected interface for the bridge creation time (a couple of seconds?)
I tried it on a LAN and ansible ssh connection always survived but I 'm not sure it's always true.
 
, and you need it to have an IP address already on that range! But - it works as expected with the ovirtmgmt bridge setup so nothing to worry about.

Dear All,

We're trying to deploy our hosted engine remotely using the ansible hosted engine playbook, which has been a rocky road but we're now at the point where it's installing, and failing. We've got a pre-defined bond/VLAN setup for our interface which has the correct bond0 bond0.123 and ovirtmgmt bridge on top but we're hitting the classic error:

Failed to find a valid in
terface for the management network of host virthyp04.virt.in.bmrc.ox.ac.uk. If the interface ovirtmgmt is a bridge, it should be torn-down manually.

Does this bug still exist in the latest (4.3) version, and is installing using ansible with this network configuration impossible?

I don't think it's a bug; please avoid manually creating ovirtmgmt and simply set:
he_bridge_if: "bond0.123", in ansible variable file and the management bridge will be created for you at host-deploy time.

Callum
