Re: [ovirt-users] HostedEngine VM not visible, but running

From the output it looks like the agent is down, try starting it by

Hi Jenny, > What version are you running? 4.1.2.2-1.el7.centos > For the hosted engine vm to be imported and displayed in the engine, you > must first create a master storage domain. To provide a bit more detail: this was a migration of a bare-metal engine in an existing cluster to a hosted engine VM for that cluster. As part of this migration, I built an entirely new host and ran 'hosted-engine --deploy' (followed these instructions: http://www.ovirt.org/documentation/self-hosted/chap-Migrating_from_Bare_ Metal_to_an_EL-Based_Self-Hosted_Environment/). I restored the backup from the engine and it completed without any errors. I didn't see any instructions regarding a master storage domain in the page above. The cluster has two existing master storage domains, one is fibre channel, which is up, and one ISO domain, which is currently offline. > What do you mean the hosted engine commands are failing?

Interestingly, whereas when I ran it before, it exited with no output and a return code of '1', it now reports: --== Host 1 status ==-- conf_on_shared_storage : True Status up-to-date : False Hostname : kvm-ldn-03.ldn.fscfc.co.uk Host ID : 1 Engine status : unknown stale-data Score : 0 stopped : True Local maintenance : False crc32 : 0217f07b local_conf_timestamp : 2911 Host timestamp : 2897 Extra metadata (valid at timestamp): metadata_parse_version=1 metadata_feature_version=1 timestamp=2897 (Thu Jun 15 16:22:54 2017) host-id=1 score=0 vm_conf_refresh_time=2911 (Thu Jun 15 16:23:08 2017) conf_on_shared_storage=True maintenance=False state=AgentStopped stopped=True Yet I can login to the web GUI fine. I guess it is not HA due to being in an unknown state currently? Does the hosted-engine-ha rpm need to be installed across all nodes in the cluster, btw?
