[ovirt-users] Unable to install ovirt engine using Centos 7.1 with 3.5.5

[Jorgens, Bruce]

Simon,

I’m using an exported NFS file system for storage of the VM.
I’m not changing the filesystem type during the CentOS install.

Please let me know if there is any other information I can provide that might be helpful.

Bruce.

I’m trying to install ovirt-3.5.5 in a hosted engine configuration on an HP DL360 system with CentOS 7.1.
All works well up until the hosted VM portion of the install.
After installing CentOS 7.1 on the engine, the VM is unable to boot.
I’ve tried installing via PXE as well as with an attached CDROM image of CentOS 7.1 and go the same results.
There is no indication of any issue during install.
I ran a rescue image against the VM and fdisk cannot find a valid partition table on /dev/vda.
Curiously, a reinstall using the VM disk finds a partition table and prompts if the space should be recovered.


Hi Bruce,
I deployed it several time and I never noticed something similar.
Which kind of storage are you using?
Are you changing the default file system type or the partition table type when you install CentOS?

Below is a sanitized version of the configuration preview:


        --== CONFIGURATION PREVIEW ==--

I found this old post from nearly a year ago.  The issue sounds quite similar:

I appreciate any help.
