oVirt bugs are opened here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=oVirt explain as possible the issue and cause if you know it, attach logs as well.

Just to add to your knowledge, I began doing the oVirtEngine implementation using Parallels Desktop as well as VirtualBox in MY MacBookPro; both experience the same problems.
can you please open a bug on installer to clearly state this name will not work, etc?

Arr.…
On June 4 2013 I sent the following message trying to overcome the FQDN issue:
hi oVirt Community.
This will be my first posting for help to the oVirt community, so please bear with me I'f I'm not to the etiquette standards you might have already.
I'm trying to test oVirt as a FOSS Virtualization solution for small- to medium-sized healthcare organizations implementing various health information technology solutions (HIT) that the new health care reform is requiring. As a Clinical informatist, I'm very concerned about health care costs, hence I'm pushing for open source to take a wider stance in U.S. health care to reduce costs where possible and divert moneys to patient care. Now enough with my altruistic desires, and let go into the deep.
I'm trying to create "virtual machines" (using VirtualBox, Parallels and/or VMWare Workstation); mainly one for "oVirt Engine"; ind later a the second one for "oVirt Nodes". This way, these VM's files can be copier to any hardware and underlying OS, so at least the "Virt Engine" is easily installed and brought-up to facilitate managing oVirt Nodes. I considered creating ".iso" images of each component (Engine and Nodes) but I'm afraid this will hit the wall for linux novices when installing the ".iso" images in different hardware platforms (with different processors, number of cores, RAM, chipsets, etc.)
I've begun with creating a VM for oVirt Engine under Parallels (albeit I began with VirtualBox, but drivers "client additions" aren't compatible with Fedora 18 - so I'll migrate this Parallels VM to VB once it is operational) Fedora 18 installed without a single problem. I then installed all "oVirt Engine" requirements by performing the instructions published in http://www.ovirt.org/Download - that is:
First: sudo yum localinstall http://ovirt.org/releases/ovirt-release-fedora.noarch.rpm
Second: sudo yum install -y ovirt-engine
Third: …I get stuck…!!!
When I am performing the third step, I hit the fan. Each time I perform the third step shown in the aforementioned web page (i.e. sudo engine-setup), the "Welcome to oVirt Engine setup utility" appears and begins to run until I reach the point where I need to define a "Fully Qualified Domain Name."
NOTE - A video of how to install oVirt in a single machine, entitled "Installing oVirt on a single machine" (at: http://www.ovirt.org/Documentation) shows the process (with some exemptions because it was recorded while oVirt v3.x was in beta), but I don't get what the video shows…!!!
This is what I do and before getting stuck in the "FQDN thing" (no pun intended…!!!). As third-step, I enter:
sudo engine-setup
I follow the prompts that appear after the "Welcome to oVirt Engine setup utility" is shown in the terminal window until I get to the prompt:
Host fully qualified domain name. Note: this name should be fully resolvable [localhost.localdomain] :
If I press "Enter", I get…:
The IP (127.0.0.1) which was resolved from the FQDN localhost.localdomain is not configured on any non loopback interface on this host
I figured that in order to define a FQDNm I had to expose my "oVirt Engine" VN to the Internet. Since I'm doing all from home (where I'm limited to a "Dynamic IP", albeit, which hardly-ever changes) I went to DynDns.org <http://DynDns.org> and created an entry so my "FQDN Text-URL" would resolve to the IP where I'm at. I also modified my Domain's DNS and entered a "DNS Alias" named "dcmanagement", defining this "DNS alias" to resolve into my IP by going to DynDNS.org <http://DynDNS.org> to get my "Public IP". Hence, the alias "dcmanagement1" resolves by going to "healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org <http://healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org>" and gets my Public IP.
NOTE - To test this setup, I do "ping" to either "healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org <http://healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org>" or "dcmanagement1.healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org <http://dcmanagement1.healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org>" and I get my Dynamic Public IP back. Once the "Text URL" issue was returning my IP (as FQDN expect) I repeated the:
sudo engine-setup
Upon reaching:
Host fully qualified domain name. Note: this name should be fully resolvable [localhost.localdomain] :
I entered "dcmanagement1.healthcareinfopartners.com <http://dcmanagement1.healthcareinfopartners.com>" and got my Public IP back with the following message:
The IP (70.45.xxx.xx) which was resolved from the FQDN dcmanagement1.healthcareinfopartners.com <http://dcmanagement1.healthcareinfopartners.com> is not configured on any non loopback interface on this host
Now, here's the question. What does anyone suggest I do to overcome the FQDN setting and continue the installation process…?
José E ("Richie") Piovanetti, MD, MS M: 787-615-4884 | richiepiovanetti@healthcareinfopartners.com <mailto:richiepiovanetti@healthcareinfopartners.com>
Looking at your evaluation of my ERROR_LOG, and HOSTNAME (your first and second comments) you reassured my suspicion; to go to "HOSTNAME" and change "localhost-localdomain" to "localhost.localdomain".
When I go to your "third" comment is where all hell breaks loose. You say "/to make ovirt-engine work, you must have resolvable host via dns and resolved to non loopback address, so localhost will not work for you/". That line appears to take me back to where I started a month and half ago (see copy of my original pos for help); "localhost" and "localdomain" seem to be biting me in the ass.
I was told that by adding an entry to the HOST file i'd overcome the need for a DNS. Not exactly the same as what you suggest and/or mean…?
Since I'm doing this work at home I have a Dynamic IP. I opened an account on DynDNS.or so I could resolve DNSs to my "Dynamic IP"; which changes every time the power goes out and back (i.e. about once a month in Puerto Rico where I'm at, and were used to that as trees and tropical foliage can't be prevented from causing blackouts by tripping on power lines).
If I PING (from the "Terminal") healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org <http://healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org/> I get my "Public IP at The Time" (i.e. my "Assigned Dynamic IP").
In my Godaddy.com <http://godaddy.com/> DNS setting I have a CName entry for:
* Host: dcmanagement1 * Points To: healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org <http://healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org/>
<Screen Shot 2013-07-31 at 6.19.54 PM.png>
What should I use as FQDN then (which is resolved by GoDaddy's DNS):
* healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org <http://healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org/> * dcmanagement1.healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org <http://dcmanagement1.healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org/> * something else…?
The problem I see with this is that the "oVirtEngine" VM will not have a valid Internet IP since it sits behind a router that is doing NAT. I could set a rule (ex. por forwarding, port triggering or a static route) in my router that states that if port X is being accessed from "the outside" (i.e. Internet) to route to my "oVirtEngine VM IP"; which is getting it's own IP from the router's DHCP.
What do you think now that you have a little more information about my setup…?

Should be localhost or localhost.localdomain, but not the above. Also, to make ovirt-engine work, you must have resolvable host via dns and resolved to non loopback address, so localhost will not work for you.
