All, I'm having an issue with the vdsmd service refusing to start on a fresh install of RHEL 7.2, RHEV version 4.0. It initially came up correctly, and the command "ip a" showed a "vdsmdummy" interface and a "ovirtmgmt" interface. However after a couple of reboots, those interfaces disappeared, and running "systemctl status vdsmd" generated the message "Dependency failed for Virtual Desktop Service Manager/Job vdsmd.service/start failed with result 'dependency'". Didn't say what dependency though I have 3 hosts where this happening on 2 out of 3 hosts. For some odd reason, the one host isn't having any problems. In a Google search I found an instance where system clock timing was out of sync, and that messed it up. I checked all three hosts, as well as the RHEV manager and they all had chronyd running and the clocks appeared to be in sync. After a reboot the virtual interfaces usually initially come up, but go down again within a few minutes. Running journalctl -xe gives these three messages: "failed to start Virtual Desktop Server Manager network restoration" "Dependency failed for Virtual Desktop Server Manager" (but it doesn't say which dependency failed" "Dependency failed for MOM instance configured for VDSM purposes" (again, doesn't way which dependency) Any suggestions?

Is libvirtd.service running?

Can you share the output of: systemctl status vdsmd systemctl status mom systemctl status libvirtd journalctl -xe Nir

Oh, I stumbled onto something relevant. I noticed on the host that was working correctly that the ifcfg-enp6s0 file included a line for "BRIDGE=ovirtmgmt", and the other two didn't have that line. When I added that line to the other two hosts, and restarted networking, I was able to get those hosts in a status of "UP". That file is autogenerated by VDSM, so I wondered if it would survive a reboot. When I rebooted, the line had been removed again by VDSM. So, I guess the final question then is how to get persistence in keeping this BRIDGE line from getting removed across reboots? On 1/13/2017 2:54 PM, Nir Soffer wrote:

Oh, I stumbled onto something relevant.
I noticed on the host that was working correctly that the ifcfg-enp6s0 file included a line for "BRIDGE=ovirtmgmt", and the other two didn't have that line. When I added that line to the other two hosts, and restarted networking, I was able to get those hosts in a status of "UP".
That file is autogenerated by VDSM, so I wondered if it would survive a reboot. When I rebooted, the line had been removed again by VDSM.
So, I guess the final question then is how to get persistence in keeping this BRIDGE line from getting removed across reboots?
VDSM on reboot will compare the current config to the persisted one and try to sync it. Perhaps you have a corrupted persistent configuration. Could you please send us the following items: - vdsm and supervdsm logs (from /var/log/vdsm) - All your ifcfg files. - The persisted VDSM network configuration from: /var/lib/vdsm/persistence/netconf Thanks, Edy.

All,
I'm having an issue with the vdsmd service refusing to start on a fresh install of RHEL 7.2, RHEV version 4.0.
It initially came up correctly, and the command "ip a" showed a "vdsmdummy" interface and a "ovirtmgmt" interface. However after a couple of reboots, those interfaces disappeared, and running "systemctl status vdsmd" generated the message "Dependency failed for Virtual Desktop Service Manager/Job vdsmd.service/start failed with result 'dependency'". Didn't say what dependency though
I have 3 hosts where this happening on 2 out of 3 hosts. For some odd reason, the one host isn't having any problems.
In a Google search I found an instance where system clock timing was out of sync, and that messed it up. I checked all three hosts, as well as the RHEV manager and they all had chronyd running and the clocks appeared to be in sync.
After a reboot the virtual interfaces usually initially come up, but go down again within a few minutes.
Running journalctl -xe gives these three messages:
"failed to start Virtual Desktop Server Manager network restoration"
"Dependency failed for Virtual Desktop Server Manager" (but it doesn't say which dependency failed"
"Dependency failed for MOM instance configured for VDSM purposes" (again, doesn't way which dependency)
Any suggestions?
Can you share the output of:
systemctl status vdsmd systemctl status mom systemctl status libvirtd journalctl -xe

Sure, here you go ....
