[ovirt-users] HA agent fails to start

[Richard Neuboeck]

The answers file shows the setup time of both machines.

On both machines hosted-engine.conf got rotated right before I wrote
this mail. Is it possible that I managed to interrupt the rotation with
the reboot so the backup was accurate but the update not yet written to
hosted-engine.conf?
