oVirt 4.2.x and ManageIQ : Adding 'cfme' credentials
Hello, As for my 4 previous oVirt DCs, I'm trying to add them to ManageIQ providers. I tried to follow this guide : https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_cloudforms/4.6/html-si... But when trying to run psql, the shell tells me the command is not found. I made a very simple setup : when running engine-setup, I answered the default question about DWH, so the DB is local. When viewing (with pgAdmin) the roles of this new PostgreSQL DB, I see there is no 'cfme' user. Do I have to re-run the setup and answer different things to ensure other packages and setup are made? I saw https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.1/htm... telling me to re-run. But I see that : rpm -qa|grep -i dwh ovirt-engine-dwh-4.2.1.2-1.el7.centos.noarch ovirt-engine-dwh-setup-4.2.1.2-1.el7.centos.noarch so I thought it was already enough... ? -- Nicolas ECARNOT

Because you are probably on PG 9.5 SCL, I assume? Something like 'scl enable rh-postgrsql95' should help. Y.

Hello Yanniv, Thank you for answering.

I've never heard about that before today. I installed a bare-metal CentOS 7.4 on which I installed oVirt 4.2. I saw no reference to SCL nowhere, neither during the setup, neither in the oVirt install documentation. How an average user is supposed to behave in such a situation? (In my case, as usual, I read and read again) Couldn't the Redhat documentation mentioned above be more accurate?
Something like 'scl enable rh-postgrsql95' should help.
Not that much... root@serv-mvm-prds01:/etc/ovirt-engine-setup.conf.d# cd /tmp root@serv-mvm-prds01:/tmp# su - postgres Dernière connexion : jeudi 1 mars 2018 à 15:42:40 CET sur pts/2 -bash-4.2$ scl enable rh-postgrsql95 Need at least 3 arguments. Run scl --help to get help. -- Nicolas ECARNOT

After reading and reading again : For the record, here are the steps allowing me to add this user : su - postgres scl enable rh-postgresql95 'psql ovirt_engine_history' CREATE ROLE cfme with LOGIN ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'xxx'; SELECT 'GRANT SELECT ON ' || relname || ' TO cfme;' FROM pg_class JOIN pg_namespace ON pg_namespace.oid = pg_class.relnamespace WHERE nspname = 'public' AND relkind IN ('r', 'v','S'); \q exit -- Nicolas ECARNOT

An average user does not touch the database. But you are right, we should mention it somewhere.

Red Hat did not release 4.2 yet.
Something like 'scl enable rh-postgrsql95' should help.
