Hy,
I am trying to install ovirt 4.5 on a 4-host cluster running Centos Stream 8, but the
engine does not start and the whole process fails.
Here is my procedure
dnf install centos-release-ovirt45
dnf module reset virt
dnf module enable virt:rhel
dnf install ovirt-engine-appliance
dnf install ovirt-hosted-engine-setup
The latest version of ansible [ansible-core 2.13] uses python3.9 and the installation
fails because some python3.9 modules are missing
[python39-netaddr, python39-jmespath] and cannot be installed [conflict python3-jmespath].
So I downgraded ansible to ansible-core 2.12
dnf downgrade ansible-core
Now
hosted-engine-setup --deploy --4
goes proceed further but stops because it cannot start the engine
[ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Wait for the host to be up]

I looked into the log file

Has anyone had similar problems?
End of past July I installed Ovirt on another cluster running Centos Stream 8 following
the procedure I just described with no problem.
If needed I can post all log files.
Thanks for the help.

Please note the error message - "Host is not up", not "engine is not
up".
This means that the deploy process did setup and start an engine, then
tried to add the host (the one you deploy on) to the engine, and this
failed somewhere.

This isn't your issue. If you check the code, you see that this task
has "ignore_errors: true", and actually failure there is almost always
expected.

Please check/share /var/log/ovirt-engine on the engine machine trying
to understand why adding the host failed.
The engine machine, at this point, is still local to your host, having
a private IP address - you can find that one by searching
/var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/* for 'local_vm_ip'. I usually use
this:
# ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=No -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -l
root $(grep -A20 local_vm_ip $(ls -t
/var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-ansible-bootstrap_local_vm*
| head -1) | sed -n 's/^ "stdout": "\([^"]*\)",/\1/p'
| sed
's/\\n.*//')

Dear Didi,
thanks for the answer.
it seems that the problem is again the latest release di ansible-core and python3.9.
At the end of the file I /var/log/ovirt-engine/host-deploy/ovirt-host-deploy-ansible* on
the engine machine I found

It complains about the module netaddr of python. And this is the reason while I
downgraded ansible-core on the host machine I use to deploy the engine.
On the host machine I have:

Dear Didi,
thanks for the answer.
I do not know I can can attach file on the online reply,
here is the tar of /var/log/ovirt-engine/

Solved
upgrading ovirt-engine-appliance to the latest version 4.5-20221018071047.1.el8
solve the problem.
Still ansible-core must be downgraded before running hosted-engine --deploy
