Hosted Engine No Longer Has IP Address - Help!

Hi Guys, I've gone and shot myself in the foot - and I'm looking for some first-aid. I've managed to remove the IP Address of the oVirt Self-Hosted Engine and so have lost contact with it (don't ask how - let's just say I f*cked-up). I *think* its still running, I've got it set to DHCP, and I've got access to the Host its running on, so my question(s) is: - (The preferred method) How can I re-establish (console?) contact - I'm thinking via the Host Server and some kvm-commands, so I can issue a `dhclient` command - (The most drastic) How can I get it to reboot ie is there a command / command sequence to do this Any help would be appreciated. Cheers Dulux-Oz

If you want to access the Console you can use the following: hosted-engine --console [1] If it doesn't work (with me sometimes it doesn't work) you can access the console via VNC: hosted-engine --add-console-password --password=<password> [2] If you just want to restart the VM you can do the following: hosted-engine --vm-shutdown # Check with --vm-status until the VM dies hosted-engine --vm-start Perform these procedures in global maintenance mode.
