This is how it currently works. This is because the hosted_storage domain can't be used as the "master storage domain", and such as master is required for many things. Did this solve all your problems? If not, please: 1. Try again with 3.6.3, which should be out in a few days, or the latest RC [1]. 2. If you still have problems, please state versions of OSes and whatever other relevant tools, and post (links to) full logs of both the host and the engine: /var/log/ovirt* /var/log/vdsm* [1] http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2016-February/038125.html Best regards, > > > > On Sat, 2016-02-27 at 18:01 -0500, Brett I.
