Hi,

I understood we have to put hosted-engine into maintenance mode and shutdown the VMs if we want to power off the host (otherwise it will reboot). I'm setting up a process to

- put the HestedEngine in global maintenance mode (hosted-engine --set-maintenance --mode=global)
- shutdown the HostedEngine (hosted-engine --vm-shutdown)
- PowerOff the HostedEngine (hosted-engine --vm-poweroff)
- Power off the server (shutdown -P)

Everything works fine and I can start the server back up, remove the HostedEngine from maintenance mode, and it will start automatically running. The issue is when bringing up hosted-engine: all VMs come up but one (BigIP) and I am trying to see if there is way to bring it up without having to store the engine password (using the ovirt_vm API).

At the moment, I am having to look for the BigIP VM and then use credentials to bring it up: it will not come up with 'hosted-engine --vm-start'

Is there to make this specific VM start the same time as the others VM automatically when HostedEngine starts?

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
Eugène NG
