Hi, i had a similar issue yesterday, "Wait for the host to be up", on a 3 node HCI gluster setup, using Lates ovirt-node. The issue was that ansible/playbook failed to update temp private VM ip (from /etc/hosts, created by ansible/hosted-engine), i received no error of this dyring the deployment via ansible, had to dig engine logs. I managed to fix the issue by changing the HostedEngine IP to FQDN manually via "hosted-engine --console " and then restarting networking, after few seconds deployment continued normally. Hope this helps, Andreas
