[ovirt-users] oVirt hosted-engine setup stuck in final phase registering host to engine

[Ralf Schenk]

Dear list,

i'm working for days on a hosted-engine setup on glusterfs and 'm stuck
in the last phase of hosted-engine --deploy see Text output (for two
days now :-( ). I've only ovirtmgmt Bridge up and running and all
DNS-Names seen in the screenshot are resolvable. It shouldn't be related
to your problem regarding multiple nic's in the engine-vm. As seen the
hosted-engine setup is already succsessfull, engine-vm running, but the
setup fails in registering the host (microcloud21...) in the engine.

Additionally I can see the error in the eninge-vm in
/var/log/ovirt-engine/engine.log:

2016-05-17 14:08:15,296 WARN 
[org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.hostdeploy.AddVdsCommand] (default task-13)
[9277b0a] CanDoAction of action 'AddVds' failed for user admin at internal.

[org.ovirt.engine.api.restapi.resource.AbstractBackendResource] (default
task-13) [] Operation Failed: [Host name must be formed of alphanumeric

The hostname that should be registered is the correct fqdn for the
virtualization host that runs the engine-vm, points to the ip of the
ovirtmgmt-Bridge and also the IP is reverse-resolvable to the hostname.
I checked /etc/hostname of the host for non-printable characters and as
you can see that is a valid hostname.

All is running on Centos 7 Versions:
ovirt-engine-appliance.noarch         3.6-20160420.1.el7.centos  @ovirt-3.6

Since I already repeated the setup for many times now, I need your help.
