[ovirt-users] Unable to import hosted engine storage domain in 3.6RC with FC storage

[Christopher Miersma]

Hi All,

I'm having an issue with the current release candidate for 3.6, running 
on CentOS 7. I'm trying to install the hosted engine on fibre channel 
storage. I can successfully install the VM, and get everything up and 
running, but the hosted engine VM itself does not appear in the web 
interface, nor does the storage domain on which the hosted engine's 
disks reside appear. When I create a new storage domain on the SAN, I 
can see the LUN on which the hosted engine resides, but it is greyed 
out. When I first started the cluster and got the host and engine VM 
installed and running, it gave me the message " The Hosted Engine 
Storage Domain doesn't exist. It shoudl be imported into the setup." 
I've tried importing and attaching the storage domain, but it simply 
doesn't appear in the interface to allow me to import it. I've tired 
every Attach/Import/Activate screen that I could find. I've also opened 
a bug report (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1267337), but 
with no success so far.

Has anyone else had a similar issue? Can you import the hosted engine 
storage domain after setup, and if so on what kind of storage? From some 
of the posts I've seen, it looks like people are getting it to work with 
NFS and maybe iSCSI, but I haven't seen anyone else mention Fibre Channel.
