Deployment Error: Host is not up - Looking For Some Advice/Pointers

Hi All, So, on a fresh install on RL v9.3, we're getting a `Host is not up, please check logs, perhaps also on the engine machine` error. This comes up right after the 20min timeout (the 120sec * 10 one). No, the hosted-engine is not deployed (ie hosted-engine --check-deployed). Obviously I need to check the logs, but which ones in particular (the hosted-engine-setup logs, obviously, but which other ones), where are they if the hosted-engine is not running, and, in an effort to narrow down the volume of info to a more manageable level, what should I be looking for? Thanks in advance

I thought this issue sounded familiar - I really need to check my old posts, etc (see https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/VBCK7C3Z22K7VZV...). To document the "solution" I'm posting this here. In short the solution (for me) was to accept the default names for the Data Center and the Cluster and then edit the names to what was required/desired once the engine was successfully deployed. This thread (https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/IDLGSBQFX35EHHG...) gave me the clue. Cheers Dulux-Oz
