Looking for some help/suggestions to correct an issue I'm having.  I have a 3 host HA setup running a hosted-engine and gluster storage.  The hosts are identical hardware configurations and have been running for several years very solidly.  I was performing an upgrade to 4.1.  1st host when fine.  The second upgrade didn't go well...On server reboot, it went into kernel panic and I had to load previous kernel to diagnose. 

I couldn't get it out of panic and I had to revert the system to the previous kernel which was a big PITA. I updated it to current and verified installation of ovirt/vdsm.  Everything seemed to be ok, but vdsm won't start. Gluster is working fine.  It appears I have a authentication issue with libvirt.  I'm getting the message "libvirt: XML-RPC error : authentication failed: authentication failed" which seems to be the core issue.

I've looked at all the past issues/resolutions to this issue and tried them, but I can't get it to work.  For example, I do a vdsm-tool configure --force and I get this...

Checking configuration status...

abrt is already configured for vdsm
lvm is configured for vdsm
libvirt is already configured for vdsm
SUCCESS: ssl configured to true. No conflicts
Current revision of multipath.conf detected, preserving

Running configure...
Reconfiguration of abrt is done.

I think libvirt changed the way sasl is configured about a year ago, maybe it broke
4.1. I don't think anyone should use 4.1 at this point.

Maybe removing vdsm on the host, and installing 4.2 or 4.3 will avoid this issue.

...and help would be greatly appreciated.  I'm not a linux/ovirt expert by any means, but I desperately need to get this setup back to being stable.  This happened many months ago and I gave up fixing, but I really need to get this back online again.

Thank you
