Hi Didi,
sorry for the delay in reporting final results.

I can confirm that simply creating /etc/pki/libvirt suffices: the "private" 
subdir gets automatically correctly created (along with all certificates etc.)  
and setup completes fine.

It did not start up because of BZ #1075126 (HA agent died) but I noticed (by 
chance) that there is an updated (18/03/2014) workaround and after manually 
applying it (no oVirt new packages have been published yet) the Engine VM 
started fine.

Now I'm battling with an (apparently) GlusterFS (3.5.0beta4) bug that makes the 
(NFS based, but Gluster-provided) Engine storage domain shutdown by itself 
after a while (causing Engine VM to die).

Many thanks again for your support,
Giuseppe

PS: would you suggest a complete reinstall with GlusterFS 3.4.x stable instead?

PS2: sorry for top-posting (but Hotmail keeps failing on proper quoting...)

Hi all,
while attempting a from-scratch self-hosted-engine installation on CentOS 6.5 
(also freshly reinstalled from scratch) on a physical node (oVirt 3.4.0_pre + 
GlusterFS 3.5.0beta4; NFS storage for engine VM), the process fails almost 
immediately with:

[root@cluster1 ~]# ovirt-hosted-engine-setup 
--config-append=/root/ovhe-setup-answers.conf
[ INFO  ] Stage: Initializing
          Continuing will configure this host for serving as hypervisor and 
create a VM where you have to install oVirt Engine afterwards.
          Are you sure you want to continue? (Yes, No)[Yes]:

I already got another such report yesterday - seems like a bug in the fix for 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1034634 .I hope to push a fix later 
today.

I look forward to have the fix pushed/merged in actual packages.


[ INFO  ] Stage: Clean up
[ INFO  ] Stage: Pre-termination
[ INFO  ] Stage: Termination

The /root/ovhe-setup-answers.conf has been saved from a previous installation 
(before reinstalling) and only minimally edited (removed some lines with UUIDs 
etc.).

The /etc/pki/libvirt dir is completely missing on both nodes; last time I tried 
the whole setup I do not recall of having such problems, but maybe something 
was different then.

The generated 
/var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-20140313010526.log 
has been saved as:

http://pastebin.com/ezAJETBN

I hope to be able to progress further to test the whole 2-nodes setup (second 
node freshly reinstalled too and already up with GlusterFS and waiting to be 
added to oVirt cluster) and datacenter configuration.

Many thanks in advance for any suggestions/help,
For now, you can simply:mkdir /etc/pki/libvirt
This should be enough.

The workaround works: the self-hosted-engine installation proceeds now.

Thanks for the report!-- 
Didi

Many thanks for your kind and prompt assistance,
Giuseppe

                                          

Thanks for the report. The workaround is probably not enough, depends on what 
youare trying to do. 'mkdir /etc/pki/libvirt/private' is needed too. Without 
it, the code thatcopies there a key will create a file 'private' instead of 
copying it into a directory 'private'.
Fix [1] was merged to all branches.

Best regards,-- Didi

Hi Didi,
the workaround seemed actually to be enough to make the self-hosted-engine 
setup go through up to the end without any user-visible error, but it left me 
with a non-running Engine VM afterwards (basically it did not restart up 
automatically under HA protection).

I collected all logs and reported it in a separate message with subject 
"Self-hosted engine setup ok but no engine vm running‏ " but got no comments 
yet.

If I get no suggestions I will try to perform some "corrective actions" based 
on my understanding of the problems at hand, but I did not want to "corrupt" 
the exact state to help in debugging (starting again from scratch with full 
first node reinstallation is a somewhat lenghty process since I have no local 
repo mirrors).

Many thanks again,
Giuseppe
