[ovirt-users] VM HostedEngie is down. Exist message: internal error Failed to acquire lock error -243

Tue Jun 10 05:11:58 UTC 2014

Nah, I've explicitly allowed hosted-engine vm to be able to access the 
NAS device as the NFS share itself, before the deploy procedure even 
started. But I'm puzzled at how you can reproduce the bug, all was well 
on my setup before I've stated manual migration of the engine's vm. Even 
auto migration worked before that (tested it). Does it just happen 
without any procedure on the engine itself? Is the score 0 for just one 
node, or two of three of them?
