[ovirt-users] Cannot retrieve answer file from 1st HE host when setting up 2nd host

[Will Dennis]

OK, that did the trick... 2nd host is joined.

However, when I went to the 3rd host and did the setup, I selected 'glusterfs' and gave the path of the engine volume, it came back and incorrectly identified it as the first host, instead of an additional host... How does setup determine that? I confirmed that on this 3rd host that the engine volume is available and has the GUID subfolder of the hosted engine...

No, it did not complete successfully- the installer threw a error at the end "Failed to start service 'ovirt-ha-agent' " during the "Closing up" stage due to the (now fixed) bug with the ha-agent systemd startup script....

If there was an error in the close-up it was not really that successfully :-)

So should I copy the correct answers log from /var/lib/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup to /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/answers.conf and try the setup again on the second host?

Yes, that should do the trick

The answerfile is expected to be found in
/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/answers.conf .
It's written there upon a successful completion of deploy.

Absolutely, I suggest you to start checking for /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/answers.conf on the first host.
If the file is not here please check the setup logs on the first to ensure that it successful completed.


It's also always written to /var/lib/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/answers/ .

You can also copy it by yourself to somefile and run:

hosted-engine --deploy --config-append=somefile

But I'd invest some time understanding why scp fails. Might be bad
name resolution?
