Hi Simone,

Sorry for my late reply.  I've tried to attempt this all a few more times on my own, and have gotten a bit further but am about ready to call it quits.  The last step I now get to is when the service httpd is restarting.  It fails right after that.

I tried to manually install httpd myself because it didn't appear to be installed (I never saw it as a prerequisite) and then rerun the deployment via the answer file, but I was never able to resume the deployment. 

Unfortunately I have 4 logs now from retrying the deployment, however I am fairly certain this is most important one:
https://pastebin.com/ssQmaK8g

Here are the others that most likely contain my attempts at resuming the deployment, which probably won't be as useful:
https://pastebin.com/6xn50HwL
https://pastebin.com/LLtCMJqC
https://pastebin.com/gxGWhQc1

Side note: the first log was done from a freshly imaged CentOS 7 machine.  If there's a better way to restart the deployment from scratch aside from reinstalling the OS - please let me know!  It takes a lot of time to get everything back up and running again.

Thanks so much,
Jon

Thanks - makes sense.

I've worked on this a bit more and have pushed a bit further, but from looking through my new log, it looks like the engine is error-ing out because my engine FQDN is cannot be resolved to an IP address.

The error: 
[ ERROR ] Host name is not valid: engine.example.rocks did not resolve into an IP address

engine.example.rocks is the FQDN I supplied when answering the following:

 Please provide the FQDN you would like to use for the engine appliance.
 Note: This will be the FQDN of the engine VM you are now going to launch.
 It should not point to the base host or to any other existing machine.
 Engine VM FQDN: (leave it empty to skip):


My /etc/hosts file: 
192.168.1.44 host.example.rocks host
192.168.1.45 engine.example.rocks engine


I can see why it's erroring, but I'm not sure what I need to do now to get it working.  The IP 192.168.1.45 is one I just made up, because the only system I have access to is the one I'm currently using (192.168.1.44)

Could you please share your hosted-engine-setup log file from the latest attempt?
 

Jon

My lack of Linux proficiency is going to show here, but..

I guess I'm a bit confused on how to correctly configure my network interface(s) for oVirt.

I currently have two network interfaces:

enp0s25 -
This is my Ethernet interface, but it is unused.  It currently is set to DHCP and has no IP address.  However, it is the only interface that oVirt suggests I use when configuring which nic to set the bridge on.

wlo1 - 
My wireless interface, and IS how i'm connecting to the internet.  This is the IP address that I was using in my /etc/hosts file.

Is it it not possible have a system that can run oVirt as well as maintain an internet connection?


oVirt by default works in bridge mode.
This means that is going to create a bridge on your hosts and the vnic of your VMs will be connected to that bridge as well.

oVirt is composed by a central engine managing physical hosts trough an agent deployed on each host.
So the engine has to be able to reach the managed hosts, this happens though what we call management network.

hosted-engine is special deployment where for ha reasons the oVirt engine is going to run on a VM hosted on the host that it's managing.
So, wrapping up, with hosted-engine setup you are going to create a VM for the engine, the engine VM will have a nic on the management network and this mean that you have a management bridge on your host.
The host has to have an address over the management network in order to have the engine able to reach your host.

That's why hosted-engine-setup is checking the address of the interface you choose for the management network.

Hi Jon,

  There will be people on this list far more able to help you than I can, but the contents of the engine setup log (/var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-20170614160653-2vuu7h.log) would help

This is roughly my 10th attempt at installing some version of oVirt and I think where I get stuck every time is with the networking aspect.

I'm simply trying to test out oVirt on an old laptop wiht 16GB RAM and an external HDD.  I'm connected via WiFi.

After failing 100 times with the regular ovirt engine, It was recommended I try the self-hosted engine.

Anyway, here are the contents of my /etc/hosts file:
127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
10.114.13.144 host.example.rocks host
10.114.13.145 engine.example.rocks engine

After running hosted-engine --deploy, I get to the prompt below in which the installer fails afterwards:

You may specify a unicast MAC address for the VM or accept a randomly generated default [00:16:3e:5b:3a:73]:

This is my first time writing to this list, so hopefully I'm doing it right.  Thanks in advance - this is driving me crazy!
