Stuck installing Neutron Appliance

Hello. I am running oVirt 3.5.1. on a single server running Hosted Engine. I am running through <http://www.ovirt.org/Features/NeutronVirtualAppliance#Run_the_neutron_server_vm> and am stuck on the section "Install a Host with the network provider". Specifically, I am stuck on Step 2, which is: 2. Install the host with the external network provider by clicking on the 'Network Provider' left tab I am not sure where to click. In my "Tree", I do have "External providers", but I already added my Neutrom Provider in the previous section, 'Configure Neutron network provider on ovirt-engine'. Is there somewhere else I need to add this, or because I am running a self-hosted engine, it ends up being the same thing? Also in this same section, Step 7 where I am to run 'ovs-vsctl add-port br-neutron neutron', I don't have this command ('ovs-vsctl' doesn't seem to be installed, which I believe is part of openVswtich). I didn't see any steps beforehand that would have installed openVswitch. Is there a step missing? Thanks! :-) Regards, Alan

Hey there, Alan. Did you get past this issue? I'm having the exact same problem. I'm not running hosted engine, but the flow is the same. I added the neutron icehouse repo on my ovirt hosts, and I don't know where to click to "Install host with the network provider"
Also in this same section, Step 7 where I am to run 'ovs-vsctl add-port br-neutron neutron', I don't have this command ('ovs-vsctl' doesn't seem to be installed, which I believe is part of openVswtich).

That's correct. My guess is that the step 2 will install openvswitch agent on the ovirt hosts. Regards, Carlo Rodrigues

Got it. It's in the 'Add New Host' dialog. I just removed each host from the cluster, and re-added it again.

Ah, unfortunately this is not an option for me, currently, then. I only have the single server, and this, single host :-( Thanks for figuring that out, though. I will keep it in mind for the future. -Alan

The 'Network Provider' left tab should appear also on "Install Host" dialog. So if you move the host to 'Maintenance' mode and click on the "Install" button, the dialog should have the 'Network Provider' left tab. On Sat, Aug 15, 2015 at 7:46 PM, Alan Murrell <lists@murrell.ca> wrote:

Ah, OK, I will see if I can give that a try. Regards, Alan
