Previously, when manually deploying a hosted engine, deployment would fail if the admin password provided in the hosted-engine setup on the host did not match the admin password provided in the engine-setup on the virtual machine. Now, the user will be prompted again until the passwords match.

Description James W. Mills 2014-06-11 18:40:25 UTC 
Description of problem:

During the initial setup of hosted-engine, you are prompted for the admin API password.  Then, when actually configuring RHEVM you are prompted again.

If the password entered in the first step (on the host) does not match the password entered on the manager, the host will attempt once, then fail.

Because we do not have any kind of "resume" or "try again" option, the only recovery approach is to rebuild the manager again from scratch.  This is an extremely tedious and time-consuming task.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter a password for the admin API when prompted by hosted-engine --deploy
2. Enter a different password on the manager during engine-setup

Actual results:

The host fails to add itself to the engine and the process aborts with no opportunity for recovery

Expected results:

The host prompts again for admin API credentials, allowing the user an opportunity to continue without having to start over.
Comment 2 James W. Mills 2014-06-11 18:46:52 UTC 
Oh, one more bit on "Expected Results".  I would like the hosted-engine script to let the user know that the password failed and give them the option to try again or abort.

Thanks!

I've followed exactly the steps described for reproduction and deployment process found that engine's password differs from given to it, then I've received the question to give another password. I've provided another password (entered previously to engine) and deployment finished successfully.
