Possibly stupid question but are you doing this on a base empty centos/rhel 7?

I've spent the weekend trying to get to the bottom of this issue.

This was in the /var/log/vdsm/vdsm.log on the host trying to be added:

jsonrpc.Executor/2::ERROR::2016-10-10 11:57:10,276::API::1340::vds::(getHardwareInfo) failed to retrieve hardware info

EOFError

If a request to supervdsm fails with EOFError, something bad happened

supervdsm and we would see the exception in the supervdsm log.

Can you share supervdsm.log?
