[Users] installation failed on cluster host

[Madhav V Diwan]

Just a thought
 whenever I get one of these "yum cannot download" messages i check my
network cards, default routes , and dns and /etc/resolv.conf  to make
sure its all working properly 
 Ovirt does mess with networking when installing .. so you should double
check these.

Hi William,

The issue you are having is a yum issue with Centos and not ovirt issue.
I found several posts on it by searching 'Cannot find a valid baseurl 
for repo: base' in google.

https://www.google.co.uk/?gws_rd=cr&ei=GsnVUu-YCo7T7AbG6YCICw#q=Cannot+find+a+valid+baseurl+for+repo:+base+CentOS+6.5&spell=1

can you please look at the link and see if any of the forms were 
reporting anything like you describe with Yum?
If you do, can you also post it here so others encountering this yum 
issue on centos can use your workaround?

Just so you know, ovirt has a deployment log under 
/var/log/ovirt-engine/host-deploy/ so if a host installation fails, it 
should be reported there in a way which should be easy to debug.

Thanks,
Dafna
