The answers file shows the setup time of both machines.
On both machines hosted-engine.conf got rotated right before I wrote this mail. Is it possible that I managed to interrupt the rotation with the reboot so the backup was accurate but the update not yet written to hosted-engine.conf?
AFAIK we don't have any rotation mechanism for that file; something else you have in place on that host?
Those machines are all CentOS 7.2 minimal installs. The only adaptation I do is installing vim, removing postfix and installing exim, removing firewalld and installing iptables-service. Then I add the oVirt repos (3.6 and 3.6-snapshot) and deploy the host.
But checking lsof shows that 'ovirt-ha-agent --no-daemon' has access to the config file (and the one ending with ~):
# lsof | grep 'hosted-engine.conf~' ovirt-ha- 193446 vdsm 351u REG 253,0 1021 135070683 /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf~
This is not that much relevant if the file was renamed after ovirt-ha-agent opened it. Try this:
[root@c72he20160405h1 ovirt-hosted-engine-setup]# tail -n1 -f /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf & [1] 28866 [root@c72he20160405h1 ovirt-hosted-engine-setup]# port=

I've issued the commands you suggested but I don't know how that helps to find the process accessing the config files.
After moving the hosted-engine.conf file the HA agent crashed logging the information that the config file is not available.
Here is the output from every command:

The issue is understanding who renames that file on your host.
From what I've seen so far it looks like a child of vdsm accesses /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf periodically but is not responsible for the ~ file.
# auditctl -w /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf and # auditctl -w /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf~
auditd.log shows this:

Now that the HA agent is dead I'm removing the ~ file and starting the HA agent again. The ~ file immediately appears again.

As a thumb rule, if a file name is appended with a tilde~, it only means that it is a backup created by a text editor or similar program.
If anyone except myself would have access to these systems I would guess the same. But since I'm not editing anything in /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine there must be another reason. And there is.
Aside from auditd I tried to strace the whole thing just to make sure it comes from the HA agent.
[root@cube-two ~]# strace -o ha-trace.log -f /usr/share/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/ovirt-ha-agent --no-daemon
Looking at the trace log I found this:
183409 statfs("/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/.", {f_type=0x58465342, f_bsize=4096, f_blocks=13100800, f_bfree=12523576, f_bavail=12523576, f_files=52428800, f_ffree=52379892, f_fsid={64768, 0}, f_namelen=255, f_frsize=4096}) = 0 183409 rename("/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf", "/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf~") = 0 183409 rename("/var/lib/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/tmpNjTElr", "/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf") = 0 183409 newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=1021, ...}, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) = 0 183409 open("/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf", O_RDONLY|O_NOFOLLOW) = 3
Putting it all together I started reading the HA agent sources and found the function _wrote_updated_conf_file in /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ovirt_hosted_engine_ha/lib/upgrade.py which issues a mv -b which creates the ~ file.
This should just trigger during 3.5 to 3.6 upgrade but your host are new. Can you please attach /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/agent.log from one of them?
The question now is why is this done so frequently. Especially considering since there are no modifications to the file. Is this behavior normal?
