Not that I'm aware off.
The only thing I saw was that the FQDN during the engine-setup was changed to a hostname
from the company where I host the main website. I gave the FQDN during the minimal
install ovirthost01.<mydomain>.nl and engine setup had changed it to
<random>.<domainhosting-company>.nl
I changed it back to my given hostname at that point in the engine setup.
Sorry, I do not follow. Please provide more details.
engine-setup asks you for the FQDN of the engine, and provides a
default (which is normally the local machine's hostname). Was it at
this point that you input something else?
What do you mean in "setup had changed it"?
And in "I changed it back"?
Generally speaking:
If you want a name that's not the hostname of the machine, there is no
problem with that. This name:
1. Should be resolvable, ideally in DNS (but /etc/hosts works as well)
2. The name resolution result IP address should be reverse-resolvable
(either a PTR record or /etc/hosts) to the name you input
3. The result IP address should be attached to a nic of the local
machine, and allow connections to it
But if this explains the error I get, then I will reinstall my server
with an internal domain name that can't be found on the internet at all.
It might explain it, indeed. Being on the Internet or not is
irrelevant here, in general.
Best regards,
