Hi Roy,

I did not ever change the engine name… When I deployed it with ‘hosted-engine 
—setup’ I gave it its’ own hostname/IP, assuming it would need one that’s 
different from any of the virtualization hosts. So the virt hosts have names / 
IPs as follows:

ovirt-node-01   xxx.yyy.zzz.91
ovirt-node-02   xxx.yyy.zzz.92
ovirt-node-03   xxx.yyy.zzz.93

…and the engine VM has the hostname / IP as follows:

ovirt-engine-01   xxx.yyy.zzz.95

The engine setup log can be viewed at: http://ur1.ca/od171

I clicked on the “Data Centers” node on the left nav of webadmin, and I see 
that the “Default” DC (the only one I have) has a status of “Uninitialized”… 
Not sure how to initialize it (there’s no menu option for that on the node…)

Thanks,
Will

Hi all,

I have a hyperconverged setup where I have a hosted engine that runs on one of 
three hosts, which are named “ovirt-node-[01,02,03]” —

[root@ovirt-node-01 ~]# hosted-engine --vm-status | grep -e "Hostname" -e 
"Engine"
Hostname                           : ovirt-node-01
Engine status                      : {"health": "good", "vm": "up", "detail": 
"up"}
Hostname                           : ovirt-node-02
Engine status                      : {"reason": "vm not running on this host", 
"health": "bad", "vm": "down", "detail": "unknown"}
Hostname                           : ovirt-node-03
Engine status                      : {"reason": "vm not running on this host", 
"health": "bad", "vm": "down", "detail": "unknown”}

When I deployed the hosted engine, I gave it a separate hostname/IP, as I 
expected it would need it (hostname = “ovirt-engine-01”)


So when exactly did you changed the hostname?
And what did you pass to the hosted engine install as answers? perhaps share 
the setup log under /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha

However, when I look at the hosts in the oVirt web admin screen, I see that the 
first host has the name “ovirt-engine-01” whereas it has the hostname of 
“ovirt-node-01”

I also notice that even though the 1st host is showing the number of VM’s 
running as “1”, when I click on the “VMs” node, there are no VMs showing.


You have to have a data center active, and only after that you would be able to 
see your engine VM.  This is a must. First your hosted_storage will be imported 
into the setup automatically followed by the engine vm import.


Not sure of what “should be”, but, would expect that the first host would have 
a name equal to its DNS hostname (like the other two do), and that in VMs I 
would see the engine VM. But is that not how a hosted engine setup works?

And if not, if the engine VM migrates over to another host, will that host gain 
the name "“ovirt-engine-01”?


no. We don't mess with that. The hostname is static in the engine.

I ask this now because I want to set up a storage domain on these hosts using 
GlusterFS, and I have to select a host to base the connection on. In the “Use 
Host” dropbox, I currently see the values:

ovirt-node-03
ovirt-node-02
ovirt-engine-01

I would expect that the last entry would be for “ovirt-host-01”, not 
“ovirt-engine-01”…

I don’t want to set up the storage domain until I figure this out, so as to 
prevent potential breakage...

Thanks,
Will
