[ovirt-users] host-deploy on HE hosts failing: Job for vdsmd.service canceled.

[Daniel Helgenberger]

Hello,

I have the following problem with host-deploy on HE hosts:

> 2015-06-17 13:22:32 DEBUG otopi.plugins.otopi.services.systemd plugin.execute:937 execute-output: ('/bin/systemctl', 'stop', 'vdsmd.service') stderr:

  I do not have 'standard' (=non ha) hosts; so I cannot tell for the 
others but suspect it relates to HE.

Steps:
1. set the host to maintenance
At this point, only the HE datacenter is still mounted:
mount |grep nfs
nexstor01.sec.int.m-box.de:/volumes/ovirt/engine on 
/rhev/data-center/mnt/nexstor01.sec.int.m-box.de:_volumes_ovirt_engine 
type nfs 
(rw,relatime,vers=3,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,namlen=255,soft,nosharecache,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=6,sec=sys,mountaddr=10.11.0.30,mountvers=3,mountport=58144,mountproto=udp,local_lock=none,addr=10.11.0.30)

2. Reinstall host
-> Error, host deactivated (Job for vdsmd.service canceled.)

3. A workaround is to shutdown sanlock:

# systemctl stop vdsmd
Job for vdsmd.service canceled.

# sanlock shutdown
# systemctl stop vdsmd

4. Now, host deploy works as expected.


Versions:
EL7 centos
ovirt-3.5.2 -3.5.3
sanlock-3.2.2-2.el7.x86_64
vdsm 4.14.14 - 4.14.20
