Just figured out that if I started the ovirt-engine VM by hand, the ha-agent doesn’t seem to pickup that it’s running, but sends me “EngineDown-EngineStart” & “EngineStart-EngineUp” messages every 10 mins or so. Doesn’t affect the running engine, but more spam :) When I shut the running engine down and let the agent start it up, it shuts up about it, so something that happens during automatic launch that isn’t happening if it’s launched with —vm-start maybe?

Hi Darrell,
that's interesting would you mind sharing the logs and the exact version 
of ovirt-hosted-engine-ha package if you run into this problem again?

Thanks,
