[Users] adding host with ovirt-engine-cli

[Li, David]

Hi Michael,

Now I could create a host but couldn't delete it.

[oVirt shell (connected)]# delete host "72b4107c-679d-11e1-9302-000c29cfd59e" 
error: failed locating type async

what's the correct syntax for deleting a host?


- David

Hi David,

Your 'create host' syntax is correct, only use \" instead of \' to encapsulate
command arguments [1], - this is known issue in cli arguments parser and I'm currently
working to fix it.

[1] create host --address "10.10.62.106" --cluster-id "..." --name "xxx" --root_password "yyy"

also notice: you passing string in /--cluster-id "default"/, while it should be UUID, if by-name option
would be available, it would look like --cluster-name.
