Hi guys, I initially installed an AllinOne oVirt installation, but realised half way through that I actually need a self-hosted-engine instead, so I did an engine-cleanup and removed the database etc then ran... yum install ovirt-hosted-engine-setup hosted-engine --deploy I installed Centos 6.4 minimal on the VM then did a full yum update to 6.6 and restarted as well as disabled selinux. Everything went through perfectly and my engine is up and running, however my installation suddenly terminated when trying to add the host to the Default datacenter as follows.... [ INFO ] Engine replied: DB Up!Welcome to Health Status! Enter the name of the cluster to which you want to add the host (Default) [Default]: [ ERROR ] Cannot automatically add the host to cluster Default: Cannot add Host. Connecting to host via SSH has failed, verify that the host is reachable (IP address, routable address etc.) You may refer to the engine.log file for further details. [ ERROR ] Failed to execute stage 'Closing up': Cannot add the host to cluster Default [ INFO ] Stage: Clean up [ INFO ] Generating answer file '/var/lib/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/answers/answers-20150804143614.conf' [ INFO ] Stage: Pre-termination [ INFO ] Stage: Termination I've attached my engine.log and my answer file. I have confirmed that both systems are able to reach each other, so I'm not sure if it's perhaps some kind of DNS related issue perhaps? Note that I'm only using host file resolution and not internal DNS names. Please could someone take a look and see if you are able to pick up anything obvious please. Thank you! Regards. Neil Wilson.

Sorry to be replying to my own post, but I'm not sure if by adding the Host manually that I've perhaps messed up something now?

How do I go about adding my default NFS storage domain because no storage domain exists currently despite my hosted_engine being a VM already running on my default domain? In fact when I look at my hosted_engine and go to disks it shows there is no disk at all.

Thanks! Regards. Neil Wilson.
