8:51 p.m.
I currently have a self-hosted engine that was restored from a backup of an engine that
was originally in a hyperconverged state.
(See https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/APQ3XBU...).
This was also an upgrade from ovirt 4.4 to ovirt 4.5.
There were 4 hosts in this cluster. Unfortunately, 2 of them are completely in an
"Unassigned" state right now, and I don't know why. The VMs on those hosts
are working fine, but I have no way to move the VMs or manage them.
More to the point of this email:
I'm trying to re-deploy onto a 3rd host. I did a fresh install of Rocky Linux 8, and
followed the instructions at https://ovirt.org/download/ and
at https://ovirt.org/download/install_on_rhel.html, including the part there that is
specific to Rocky.
After installing the centos-release-ovirt45 package, I then logged into the oVirt engine
web UI, and went to Compute -> Hosts -> New, and have tried (and failed) many times
to install / deploy to this new host.
The last error in the host deploy log is the following:

On the engine, I have verified that netaddr is installed. And just for kicks, I've
installed as many different versions as I can find:
[root@ovirt-engine1 host-deploy]# rpm -qa | grep
netaddrpython38-netaddr-0.7.19-8.1.1.el8.noarch
python2-netaddr-0.7.19-8.1.1.el8.noarch
python3-netaddr-0.7.19-8.1.1.el8.noarch
The engine is based on CentOS Stream 8 (when I moved the engine out of the hyperconverged
environment, my goal was to keep things as close to the original environment as possible)
[root@ovirt-engine1 host-deploy]# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS Stream release 8
The engine is fully up-to-date:
[root@ovirt-engine1 host-deploy]# uname -a
Linux ovirt-engine1.mgt.barredowlweb.com 4.18.0-408.el8.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Jul 18 17:42:52
UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
And the engine has the following repos:
[root@ovirt-engine1 host-deploy]# yum repolistrepo id
repo name
appstream

Why does deploying to this new Rocky host keep failing?
