Hi,
I am doing a fresh engine-setup, with all the defaults, using oVirt 3.3
on Fedora 19 (all updates).
When I connect to it, it shows my default Datacenter as "Uninitialized"
and shows no Storage (it should show ISODOMAIN). I can see that my
ISODOMAIN appears to be created and NFS exported, and I can mount it
[*]. It's not actually mounted anywhere, however, which seems suspicious.
In the Storage tab, if I go to create a New Domain, it shows "Data
Center Default (NFS) !", and if I mouse-over the exclamation point it
says "Data Center is uninitialized, in order to initialize add a data
domain". But I can't actually create a new domain, because the "Use
Host" pull-down is empty.
Should I not see my local host in that pulldown menu? How am I supposed
to add local storage?
I can't find any errors in the log that logs that look relevant. I checked:
engine-config.log (no errors)
setup/ovirt-engine-setup-*.log (no errors)
engine.log has no errors that look relevant, but it does have a lot of
odd java exceptions, which can be viewed here:

Any suggestions?

* There's a bug in F19 that interferes with engine-setup
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=970595). Systemd does not
start the NFS service at boot and you have to do a weird kludge to
actually get it to start at bootup (described in the bug report). I've
applied the workaround so that's not my issue but it's worth mentioning
here. Unfortunately engine-setup doesn't detect that the service is down
when you attempt to configure an NFS storage domain. That sounds like an
engine-setup bug to me - it should check and warn the user, which would
go a fair ways towards mitigating the issue in F19, and may be more
important for other platforms which may make different assumptions about
the default behavior of the NFS service (Fedora assumes it should be
running, it's just a bug there, but other platforms may arguably assume
it should not be running by default).
