Re: [ovirt-users] Hosted Engine VM not imported

2018-02-26 Thread Alessandro De Salvo

Ciao Simone,

many thanks. So, how are we supposed to use those hooks? Should we just 
create a file 
/usr/share/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/ansible/hooks/enginevm_before_engine_setup/enginevm_before_engine_setup.yml 
with the instructions to restore? Do you have an example for doing that?


For the moment I think I'll stick to the old procedure by calling 
--noansible, as you suggest.


I think the documenttation should be updated anyways, at least to add 
the --he-remove-storage-vm and --he-remove-hosts options, as well as the 
new procedure and the override with --noansible. Also, wouldn't it be 
safer to stick to the old procedure until the new one is fully 
operational? Or maybe at least a warning to the user, otherwise no one 
will ever be able to restorage a db and have it all functional with the 
default options.


Thanks,


    Alessandro

Hi,

I have just migrated my dev cluster to the latest master,
reinstalling the engine VM and reimporting from a previous backup.
I'm trying with 4.3.0-0.0.master.20180222192611.git01e6ace.el7.centos

I had a few problems:

- the documentation seems to be outdated, and I just find by
searching the archives that it's needed to add the two
(undocumented) options --he-remove-storage-vm --he-remove-hosts

- despite the fact I selected "No" to running the engine-setup
command in the VM (the ovirt appliance), the engine-setup is
executed when running hosted-engine --deploy, and as a result the
procedure does not stop allowing to reload the db backup. The only
way I found was to put the hosted-engine in global maintenance
mode, stop the ovirt-engine, do an engine-cleanup and reload the
db, then it's possible to add the first host in the GUI, but must
be done manually

- after it's all done, I can see the hosted_storage is imported,
but the HostedEngine is not imported, and in the Events I see
messages like this:

VDSM atlas-svc-18 command GetVolumeInfoVDS failed: Image path does
not exist or cannot be accessed/created:

(u'/rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/atlas-fsserv-07.roma1.infn.it:_atlas-engine-02/f02d7d5d-1459-48b8-bf27-4225cdfdce23/images/c815ec3f-6e31-4b08-81be-e515e803edce',)

   the path here is clearly wrong, it should be

/rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/atlas-fsserv-07.roma1.infn.it:_atlas-engine-02/f02d7d5d-1459-48b8-bf27-4225cdfdce23/images/b7bc6468-438c-47e7-b7a4-7ed06b786da0/c815ec3f-6e31-4b08-81be-e515e803edce,
and I see the hosted_engine.conf in the shared storage has it
correctly set as vm_disk_id=b7bc6468-438c-47e7-b7a4-7ed06b786da0.


Any hint on what is not allowing the HostedEngine to be imported?
I didn't find a way to add other hosted engine nodes if the HE VM
is not imported in the cluster, like we were used in the past with
the CLI using hosted-engine --deploy on multiple hosts.


Ciao Alessandro,
with 4.2.1 we introduced a new deployment flow for hosted-engine based 
on ansible.
In this new flow we run a local VM with a running engine and we use 
that engine to create a storage domain and a VM there.
At the end we shutdown the locally running engine and we move it's 
disk over the disk of the VM created by the engine on the shared 
storage. At this point we don't need anymore the autoimport process 
since the engine migrated there already contains the engine VM and its 
storage domain.


We have an RFE, for this new flow, to add a mechanism to inject an 
existing engine backup to be automatically restored before executing 
engine-setup for migration/disaster-recovery scenarios.
Unfortunately it's still not ready but we have an hook mechanism to 
have hosted-engine-setup executing custom ansible tasks before running 
engine setup; we have an example 
in /usr/share/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/ansible/hooks/enginevm_before_engine_setup/enginevm_before_engine_setup.yml.example


Otherwise the old flow is still there, you have just to add 
--noansible and everything should work as in the past.



Thanks for any help,


    Alessandro
