ovirt node ng 4.3.0 rc1 and HCI single host problems

11 Jan 2019

      Let's start a new thread more focused on the subject

I'm just testing deployment of HCI single host using oVirt Node NG CentOS 7
iso

I was able to complete the gluster setup via cockpit with these
modifications:

1) I wanted to check via ssh and found that files *key under /etc/ssh/ had
too weak config so that ssh daemon didn't started after installation of
node from iso
changing to 600 and restarting the service was ok

2) I used a single disk configured as jbod, so I choose that option instead
of the default proposed RAID6

But the playook failed with
. . .

Error: Section diskcount not found in the configuration file

Reading inside the playbooks involved here:
/usr/share/gdeploy/playbooks/auto_lvcreate_for_gluster.yml
/usr/share/gdeploy/playbooks/vgcreate.yml

and the snippet

  - name: Convert the logical volume
    lv: action=convert thinpool={{ item.vg }}/{{item.pool }}
        poolmetadata={{ item.vg }}/'metadata' poolmetadataspare=n
        vgname={{ item.vg }} disktype="{{disktype}}"

        chunksize="{{ chunksize | default('') }}"
        snapshot_reserve="{{ snapshot_reserve }}"
    with_items: "{{ lvpools }}"
    ignore_errors: yes

I simply edited the gdeploy.conf from the gui button adding this section
under the [disktype] one
"

[diskcount]
1

"
then clean lv/vg/pv and the gdeploy step completed successfully

3) at first stage of ansible deploy I have this failed command that seems
not to prevent from completion but that I have not understood..

Would it be possible to save in some way the ansible playbook log even if
it completes ok, without going directly to the "successful" page?
Or is anyway stored in some location on disk of host?

I then proceeded with Hosted Engine install/setup and

4) it fails here at final stages of the local vm engine setup during host
activation:

One potential problem I noticed is that on this host I setup eth0 with
192.168.122.x (for ovirtmgmt) and eth1 with 192.168.124.y (for gluster,
even if only one host, but aiming at adding other 2 hosts in second step)
and the libvirt network temporarily created for the local engine vm is also
on 192.168.124.0 network.....

4: virbr0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state
UP group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 52:54:00:b8:6b:3c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet 192.168.124.1/24 brd 192.168.124.255 scope global virbr0
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
5: virbr0-nic: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master
virbr0 state DOWN group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 52:54:00:b8:6b:3c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

I can change my gluster network of this env and re-test, but would it be
possible to have the libvirt network configurable? It seems risky to have a
fixed one...

Can I go ahead from this failed hosted engine after understanding reason of
ovirt-imageio-daemon failure or am I forced to scratch?
Supposing I go to power down and then power on again this host, how can I
retry without scratching?
