Add node to engine 3.6: "no unique id"
Hi, I added a oVirt node (3.6) to my engine (3.6) and get the following message when I try to activate it: --------------- Cannot activate Host. Host has no unique id. --------------- Image: ovirt-node-iso-3.6-0.999.201512132115.el7.centos.iso regards gregor
Hi, This usually happens when bios does not report unique id. At node, exit to shell using F2 then: # uuidgen > /etc/vdsm/vdsm.id And retry registration. Alternatively, configure root password and add the node via engine. Regards, Alon Bar-Lev. ----- Original Message -----

Perhaps host installation script should perform this automatically if it cannot find a unique ID? (In the case where it's not an issue of a non-unique ID, but rather no ID whatsoever, which I believe is the common case, though we have seen vendors supplying the same UUID across their BIOS for all their servers in the past as well). Y.
Alternatively, configure root password and add the node via engine.

This should have been implemented within the replacement of vdsm-reg and the usage of the new host deploy protocol. Although keep in mind that in stateless mode, such machine will register using new id each time booted even if not approved, filling database with phantom hosts.
Alternatively, configure root password and add the node via engine.

Although we provided the uuid option in vdsm-tool register verb to users force uuid, I have sent the below patch which should handle automatically such case. https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/47385/
