2:24 p.m.
Good afternoon all,
I recently had to rebuild my cluster due to a self inflicted error.
I have finally managed to get the ovirt host software installed and
communicating on all hosts.
The first host installed and started cleanly. However, after installation
the second host is failing to start. Prior to my cluster crash, this host
was running well in the cluster.
During the downtime, we applied microcode and BIOS updates as part of the
recovery process.
I have reviewed this chain:
https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/N3PPT34GBRLP...
and reached a dead end.
Based on what I see (in the long stream of logs and info following), it
looks like I should change the cluster CPU type from Cascadelake to Haswell
to restore normal operation.
The long involved stuff:
The Engine reports:

Host CPU type is not compatible with Cluster Properties.

The host CPU does not match the Cluster CPU Type and is running in a
degraded mode. It is missing the following CPU flags:
model_Cascadelake-Server-noTSX. Please update the host CPU microcode or
change the Cluster CPU Type.
The Cluster definition is:
