Hi there,
currently my team is evaluating oVirt and we're also testing several fail scenarios,
backup and so on.
One scenario was:
- hyperconverged oVirt cluster with 3 nodes
- self-hosted engine
- simulate the break down of one of the nodes by power off
- to replace it make a clean install of a new node and reintegrate it in the cluster
Actually everything worked out fine. The new installed node and related bricks (vmstore,
data, engine) were added to the existing Gluster storage and it was added to the oVirt
cluster (as host).
But there's one remaining problem: The new host doesn't have the grey crown, which
means it's unable to run the hosted engine. How can I achieve that?
I also found out that the ovirt-ha-agent and ovirt-ha-broker isn't started/enabled on
that node. Reason is that the /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf doesn't
exist. I guess this is not only a problem concerning the hosted engine, but also for HA
VM's.
Thank you for any advice and greetings,
Marcus
