Actually I think it's me who has to sorry about that... let me explain
All my tests during these months on different environments were made
without DNS because I had no chance to manage it on the lan where I
was.
For this test insead I had opportunity to make things well and so I
configured a CentoS 6.3 vm on another server as DNS server and IPA
server for the environment.
So I configured my DNS this way and it works ok:
ipacentos 192.168.1.103 ---> dns server + IPA server
f18ovn03 192.168.1.102 ---> node to install
f18engine 192.168.1.111 ---> engine
So far so good, DNS ok.
But when this morning I tried to install the host, my input in web
admin portal was:
Name ---> f18ovn03.localdomain.local
ip ---> 192.168.1.103 (that is WRONG! It is the one of the CentOS 6.3
vm, running on a R310 that has indeed an Intel cpu...)
In fact
[root at f18engine ~]# cd /var/log/ovirt-engine/host-deploy/
[root at f18engine host-deploy]# ll
total 112
-rw-r--r--. 1 ovirt ovirt 110947 Jan 31 12:17
ovirt-20130131121728-192.168.1.103.log
se the .103 in filename
Unfortunately I realized that only this evening ;-(
I tried to remove and install the node with correct ip value from the
gui but I always got ssh connection interrupted messages...
So I decided to restart clean with engine-cleanup and reboot of both servers.
Probably an uuid for the hostname and/or the ip during the initial
wrong deploy was causing inability to proceed....
So I reinstalled the beta versions for host-deploy and
host-deploy-java rpm on engine
And I was able to correctly install the node.... and after reboot it
is now up and I can proceed
Very very sorry to have let you waste your time ;-(
But I managed to learn one thing and to ask you another one:
1) never put the same password on different servers ;-)
2) the "Name" field when adding a node should match its hostname or is
meant only to be a label?
In the first case, I think it could be a safe thing to verify hostname
lookup and if it doesn' t match the ip provided, send a warning window
to the user, because strange things could happen
In the second case, probably if I removed the host from webadmin and
tried to install with a different label (Name) and correct ip (.102)
would have been successful in your opinion, without reconfiguring all
the engine?
