Thanks for reply.. seems guestfish is a tool I need to do some RTFM on. This would I think allow me to read in disk from then "engine" storage. and manipulate files within it. But is their a way to just start the VMs? I guess I jumped from "old school virsh" to relying upon oVirt GUI... and need to buff up on tools that allow me to debug when engine is down.

What it worked for me was: 1) Start a VM via "virsh" define a virsh alias: alias virsh='virsh -c qemu:///system?authfile=/etc/ovirt-hosted- engine/virsh_auth.conf' Check the host's vdsm.log ,where the VM was last started - you will find the VM's xml inside . Copy the whole xml and use virsh to define the VM "virsh define myVM.xml && virsh start myVM" 2) vdsm-client most probably can start VMs even when the engine is down You can use "hosted-engine" to start the HostedEngine VM in paused mode . Then you can connect over spice/vnc and then unpause the VM. Booting the HostedEngine VM from DVD is a little bit harder. You will need to get the HE's xml and edit it to point to the DVD. Once you got the altered HE config , you can define and start. You are not expected to mix HostedEngine and other VMs on the same storage domain (gluster volume). Best Regards, Strahil Nikolov

Two are my IDM nodes which has DNS and other core services.. which is what I am really trying to get up .. even if manual until I figure out oVirt issue. I think you are correct. "engine" volume is for just the engine.

I think I am just making things worse. Questions: 1) Why is this engine showing only on one of the three servers? 2) Why is their "HostedEngine" and "HostedEngineLocal"? 3) These paths for disk do not seem to align with engine file paths on volume. 4) If I redeploy HCI engine via cockpit will it be able to complete build .. I don't care if it wipes the "engine" so long as my data / VMs can be re-ingested. Thanks,

I do not know what happened to my other VMs. Two are important ns01 and ns02 which are my IDM cluster nodes with also plex and other utilities / services. Most of the rest are throw away VMs for testing / OCP /OKD I think I may have to redeploy... but concerns are 1) CentOS8 Streams has package conflicts with cockpit and ovirt https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1917011 2) I do have a backup.. but hoping the deployment could redeploy and use existing PostGres DB... and so save rebuild. I think I have a backup.. but it is weeks old.. and.. so lots of things changed. (need to automate backups to my NAS .. on todo list now). I think I will try to redeploy and see how it goes... Thanks for help.. I am sure this drama fest is not over. More to come.
