'engine won't start at all' can mean two things: 1) OS can't boot and thus you can't do SSH. Assuming that we are talking self-hosted engine, then you need to use command like below on host that runs ovengine VM (virsh -c qemu:///system?authfile=/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/virsh_auth.conf list and hosted-engine --vm-status might be helpful, VM should at least start to boot in order for you to achieve connectivity via console): hosted-engine --add-console-password --password=somepassword and then connect via VNC to IP that you will see in output and password that you used 2) ovirt-engine service can't start In that case it is likely that you will find reason of that in journalctl -u ovirt-engine --no-pager (/var/log/ovirt-engine/engine.log) BR, Konstantin _______________________________________________ Users mailing list -- users@ovirt.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@ovirt.org Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/privacy-policy.html oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/PL4Q64G6IFUUW5TYVJWSMMIMXHBT3SSD/
