Hi,
I have some issues with hosted engine status.
oVirt hosts think that hosted engine is down because it seems that hosts
can't write to hosted-engine.lockspace due to glusterfs issues (or at
least I think so).
Here's the output of vm-status:
# hosted-engine --vm-status
--== Host 1 status ==--
Status up-to-date : False
Hostname : 10.0.200.102
Host ID : 1
Engine status : unknown stale-data

host', 'health': 'bad', 'vm': 'down', 'detail': 'unknown'}

score=0
maintenance=False
state=EngineUnexpectedlyDown
timeout=Mon Apr 14 10:35:05 2014
oVirt engine is sending me 2 emails every 10 minutes with the following
subjects:
- ovirt-hosted-engine state transition EngineDown-EngineStart
- ovirt-hosted-engine state transition EngineStart-EngineUp
In oVirt webadmin I can see the following message:
VM HostedEngine is down. Exit message: internal error Failed to acquire
lock: error -243.
These messages are really annoying as oVirt isn't doing anything with
hosted engine - I have an uptime of 9 days in my engine vm.
So my questions are now:
Is it intended to send out these messages and detect that ovirt engine
is down (which is false anyway), but not to restart the vm?
How can I disable notifications? I'm planning to write a Nagios plugin
which parses the output of hosted-engine --vm-status and only Nagios
should notify me, not hosted-engine script.
Is is possible or planned to make the whole ha feature optional? I
really really really hate cluster software as it causes more troubles
then standalone machines and in my case the hosted-engine ha feature
really causes troubles (and I didn't had a hardware or network outage
yet only issues with hosted-engine ha agent). I don't need any ha
feature for hosted engine. I just want to run engine virtualized on
oVirt and if engine vm fails (e.g. because of issues with a host) I'll
restart it on another node.
Thanks,
René
