4.4.1-rc5: Looking for correct way to configure machine=q35 instead of machine=pc for arch=x86_64
Hello, I am hoping for some insight from folks with more hosted engine install experience. When I try to install the hosted engine using the RC5 dist I get the following error during the startup of the HostedEngine VM: XML error: The PCI controller with index='0' must be model='pci-root' for this machine type, but model='pcie-root' was found instead This is due to the HE Domain XML description using machine="pc-i440fx-rhel7.6.0". I've tried to override the default of 'pc' from ovirt-ansible-hosted-engine-setup/defaults/main.yml: he_emulated_machine: pc by passing to the ovirt-hosted-engine-setup script a --config-append=file parameter where file contains: [environment:default] OVEHOSTED_VM/emulatedMachine=str:q35 When the "Create ovirt-hosted-engine-ha run directory" step finishes the vm.conf file contains: cpuType=IvyBridge,+pcid,+spec-ctrl,+ssbd,+md-clear emulatedMachine=q35 At the "Start ovirt-ha-broker service on the host" step that file is removed. When that file appears again during the "Check engine VM health" step it now contains: cpuType=IvyBridge,+pcid,+spec-ctrl,+ssbd,+md-clear emulatedMachine=pc-i440fx-rhel7.6.0 After that the install fails with the metadata from "virsh dumpxml HostedEngine" containing: <ovirt-vm:exitCode type="int">1</ovirt-vm:exitCode> <ovirt-vm:exitMessage>XML error: The PCI controller with index='0' must be model='pci-root' for this machine type, but model='pcie-root' was found instead</ovirt-vm:exitMessage> Interestingly enough, the HostedEngineLocal VM that is running the appliance image has the value I need: <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-q35-rhel8.2.0'>hvm</type> Does anyone on the list have any experience with where this needs to be overridden? Somewhere in the hosted engine setup or do I need to do something at a deeper level like vdsm or libvirt? Help much appreciated ! Thanks, Glenn

I wonder if this openstack/nova defect is applicable to ovirt/vdsm since it is also a client of that libvirt API? https://opendev.org/openstack/nova/commit/a53c867913ff364c789aba1f7255dfcc68... Regards, Glenn Marcy Sandro Bonazzola <sbonazzo@redhat.com> wrote on 06/22/2020 04:49:13 AM:

Hello Sandro, Having been wholely unsuccessful in getting even the latest master snapshot drivers to work, I applied the following PR from github to my environment and everything installed cleanly. https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-ansible-hosted-engine-setup/pull/331 That PR was closed last week without being applied. I have added some comments describing my experiences with this approach for you to consider. I am happy to try any alternative solutions, but so far this is the only one that has worked on my server.

Does anyone on the list have any experience with where this needs to be overridden? Somewhere in the hosted engine setup or do I need to do something at a deeper level like vdsm or libvirt?
Help much appreciated !
