Unfortunately I don't see anything wrong in both engine and vdsm logs.
There is one last thing that comes to my mind that you try - restart engine service. That is exactly the case I have been investigating.
But before restarting I would like to ask you, if possible, for a java (jvm) thread dump.
The procedure is as follows:
1)  find jboss pid  ie.
$ ps -ef | grep jboss | grep -v grep | awk '{ print $2 }'
2) trigger thread dump
$ kill -3 <jboss-pid>
3)  thread dump logs can be found at /var/log/ovirt-engine/console.log

And then restart engine service to check if that helps.

Hi, Artur,

Small update with vdsm status, forgot to include in previous post.

I partially fixed problem with VDSM start.

Bug "Failed to create session: Start job for unit user-0.slice failed with ‘canceled’”
is being described here
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1967962
and fix seem to be available here, so I have downgraded systemd with backport fix:
http://people.redhat.com/dtardon/systemd/bz1642460-backport-UserStopDelaySec=/

Now vdsmd service starts successfully, but node14 still cannot be activated because of same error. This is quite strange, before restart on Friday node just worked. There were no upgrades, nothing, just restart.

Thanks for the logs.  I am checking them at the moment. I have noticed so far that node14 is serving NFS share which had been marked as problematic (probably because of the downtime during the migration) but it has recovered.

In the meantime, is is possible to get some meaningful results when  calling:
$ vdsm-client Host getStats
and
$ vdsm-client Host getCapabilities
on node14?

What  is the state for vdsmd service when running systemctl status vdsmd? One other thing to rule out is the networking/firewall. Here the list of the ports to be open for the host (the documentation is for hosted engine, but it applies for standalone setup as well): 

btw. I have been hunting for the rare and hard to recreate bug for quite a long time (without success yet) so any reported connectivity issues between the manager and hosts are super interesting to me.

Hi, Artur,


Thanks for assistance. Zipped engine starting from the day of upgrade attached.
Restart via SSH from oVirt Web GUI works.
oVirt engine runs on dedicated server, not hosted engine.

Hi Andrei,
Could you also post a relevant piece of engine.log? I don't have high expectations to find the answer there but  I just want  to be sure of it.
VDSM.log does not show any trace of error from the vdsm point of view. For example it looks like it started correctly and subscribed to receiving commands from the engine (yet that does not mean I connected to it - only in listening mode).

Can you confirm that 'SSH restart' from UI works - by 'works' I mean the host is actually restarted after a few minutes and there are no ssh related (public key etc) errors in engine.log?

Hi,

I have oVirt 4.4.7.6-1.el8 and one problematic node (HP ProLiant with CentOS 8 stream).
After replacing server rack router switch and restart got this error I can’t recover from:

VDSM node14 command Get Host Capabilities failed: Message timeout which can be caused by communication issues

vdsm-network running fine, but vdsmd can’t start on node14 for whatever reason. All other nodes running fine.

Thanks in advance for any help.
