Re: [ovirt-users] Hosted-engine ISO domain
all advices and tips are welcome. There's always a learning curve. :) Once the engine was setup on VM ovirt1, I let hosted-engine to wait out till it told me to shutdown the VM. After a while, VM was restarted. I see the first node, the VM ovirt1 in the GUI. There was no storage domain. I added another GlusterFS domain I have on the node. At this point, I still don't see or can't find the ISO_Domain over NFS. So, I'm still at the same spot. `ovirt-iso-updater` still says there's no ISO storage domains.

The domain is not listed not in the GUI. I'm not sure I should add or
import.
When I try to add a New Domain with a random name, use host node1 and
export path ovirt1.domainname:/export/ISO, It says
Create operation failed. Storage connection is already used by the
following storage domain: ISO_DOMAIN
If I try to Import, I would get Import operationfailed. Domain
ISO_DOMAIN already exists in the system.
