When attempting use the engine-iso-uploader to drop ISOs in my iso storage domain I get the following results.

Using engine-iso-uploader --iso-domain=[domain] upload [iso] does not work because the engine does not have access to our storage network. So it attempts to mount to an address that is not routable. I thought to resolve this by adding an interfaces to the Hosted Engine, only to find that I cannot modify the Engine's VM config from the GUI. I receive the error: Cannot add Interface. This VM is not managed by the engine. Actually, I get that error whenever I attempt to modify anything about the engine. Maybe this is expected behavior? I can't find any bestpractices regarding Hosted Engine administration.

Alternatively, using engine-iso-uploader --nfs-server=[path] upload [iso] --verbose returns the following error:

ERROR: local variable 'domain_type' referenced before assignment INFO: Use the -h option to see usage. DEBUG: Configuration: DEBUG: command: upload DEBUG: Traceback (most recent call last): DEBUG: File "/usr/bin/engine-iso-uploader", line 1440, in <module> DEBUG: isoup = ISOUploader(conf) DEBUG: File "/usr/bin/engine-iso-uploader", line 455, in __init__ DEBUG: self.upload_to_storage_domain() DEBUG: File "/usr/bin/engine-iso-uploader", line 1089, in upload_to_storage_domain DEBUG: elif domain_type in ('localfs', ): DEBUG: UnboundLocalError: local variable 'domain_type' referenced before assignment

Do you run it from the engine's machine? The host? Elsewhere? Where is the iso domain? This sounds to me like a bug, but I didn't check the sources yet. Please open one. Thanks. That said, you can simply copy your iso file directly to the correct directory inside the iso domain, which is: /path-to-iso-domain/SOME-UUID/images/11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111/ Make sure it's readable to vdsm:kvm (36:36).
