I put the node in to maint. mode, removed all VMs from it, and then deleted it from the web UI. I then rebuilt it with hosted-engine --deploy and indicated it is now node 4 (was previously #3) and now in --vm-status it is still showing up as stale data What can I do? In fact, it looks like ovirt thinks its still in maint mode I am presuming because I used the same host name? --== Host 1 status ==-- Status up-to-date : True Hostname : node03 Host ID : 1 Engine status : {"reason": "vm not running on this host", "health": "bad", "vm": "down", "detail": "unknown"} Score : 3400 stopped : False Local maintenance : False crc32 : 87e08365 Host timestamp : 3270683 Extra metadata (valid at timestamp): metadata_parse_version=1 metadata_feature_version=1 timestamp=3270683 (Tue Nov 29 08:43:52 2016) host-id=1 score=3400 maintenance=False state=EngineDown stopped=False --== Host 2 status ==-- Status up-to-date : True Hostname : node01 Host ID : 2 Engine status : {"health": "good", "vm": "up", "detail": "up"} Score : 3400 stopped : False Local maintenance : False crc32 : 66c7154a Host timestamp : 3267326 Extra metadata (valid at timestamp): metadata_parse_version=1 metadata_feature_version=1 timestamp=3267326 (Tue Nov 29 08:43:44 2016) host-id=2 score=3400 maintenance=False state=EngineUp stopped=False --== Host 3 status ==-- Status up-to-date : False Hostname : node02 Host ID : 3 Engine status : unknown stale-data Score : 0 stopped : False Local maintenance : True crc32 : 040b4192 Host timestamp : 211984 Extra metadata (valid at timestamp): metadata_parse_version=1 metadata_feature_version=1 timestamp=211984 (Mon Nov 28 20:28:06 2016) host-id=3 score=0 maintenance=True state=LocalMaintenance stopped=False --== Host 4 status ==-- Status up-to-date : True Hostname : node02 Host ID : 4 Engine status : {"reason": "vm not running on this host", "health": "bad", "vm": "down", "detail": "unknown"} Score : 0 stopped : False Local maintenance : True crc32 : 6aa7d568 Host timestamp : 43683 Extra metadata (valid at timestamp): metadata_parse_version=1 metadata_feature_version=1 timestamp=43683 (Tue Nov 29 08:44:11 2016) host-id=4 score=0 maintenance=True state=LocalMaintenance stopped=False In web UI it does not show the node (node02 / Host ID #4) as being in maint. mode
