[ovirt-users] Re: oVirt 4.5.1 Hyperconverge Gluster install fails

Strahil, Thank you for your response, I have added the file for you, but with my continued efforts over the past day I have finally managed to get oVirt to install but not without issues. Over a period of 2 weeks I have kicked off the install process over 20 times. Occasionally it would return the error posted here, but most of the time the install process would hang on this step. I posted the error as that was the only log/error I could get, when it hung no log files or any footprint was created it just sat there until I either reboot the host or cancelled the install. The problem I have found is that nodectl doesn't return while the installer is in progress, so I assume that when the installer tries to ssh to the localhost it never gets to a shell because nodectl is waiting indefinitely for something. So I removed nodectl-motd.sh and nodectl-run-banner.sh from /etc/profile.d and now the Gluster install wizards works perfectly. Next, the Cockpit wizard refused to identify any of my network devices, but the command line installer was fine, so I have now got a self hosted engine running on one node via: hosted-engine --deploy However my next issue now is that when I try to login to the Administration Portal with the admin user, it is giving me "Invalid username or password". I can log into the Monitoring Portal just fine, but the Administration and VM Portal doesn't like the admin credentials. So now to work out why authentication isn't working. - Dave. ----- /etc/ansible/roles/gluster.infra/roles/backend_setup/tasks/vg_create.yml ----- --- # We have to set the dataalignment for physical volumes, and physicalextentsize # for volume groups.
