Hi Itamar,
Yes, I see what you mean. What I can do is like this on three different machines:
Browser (M1) ------------- Ovirt-engine (M2) ---------------- Ovirt-node stateless (M3)
I can see the ovirt-engine GUI in the Browser on M1. But I can't login either the User Portal or Admin Portal. This is my first time to use the GUI. My basic engine-setup on M2 is like this:
--== CONFIGURATION PREVIEW ==--
Database name : engine
Database secured connection : False
Database host : localhost
Database user name : engine
Database host name validation : False
Datbase port : 5432
NFS setup : True
NFS mount point : /var/lib/exports/iso
Configure WebSocket Proxy : True
Host FQDN : vm3
Set application as default page : True
Configure Apache SSL : True
Did I miss setting a user and an admin login name/pwd?
David
