Hi, For reasons beyond sanity, I will have to rename a cluster to something, then rename it back to its previous name. - Is it only a label with no impact on a production datacenter? - Will it be possible to rename it back? Won't oVirt remember a previous similar name was used and prevent me from doing so? Thank you -- Nicolas Ecarnot
Hi Nicolas, I'm not aware of any reason, related to name already in use, why you can't do this. Regards, Maor ----- Original Message -----

If you rename the HA cluster to sth. diffrent then 'Default', the hosted-engine --deploy will fail on additional HA hosts. One workaround is to rename it to 'Default' for adding HA and rename it back afterward. (this reminds me on posting a RFE) --

Ok thank you Maor, I renamed it, then renamed it back, and I just had to restart the engine, the hosts list was staying empty. No serious issue. -- Nicolas Ecarnot Le 07/10/2014 13:44, Maor Lipchuk a écrit :
