Description Lucy Bopf 2016-05-17 02:28:34 UTC

A note must be added to the bare-metal-to-SHE migration procedures to warn users that standard hosts that were previously used to host VMs in a non-SHE environment must be reinstalled before they can be used as self-hosted engine hosts.

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.6/html-single/Self-Hosted_Engine_Guide/index.html#Migrating_to_a_Self-Hosted_Environment

In particular, this note must be updated:
"If you intend to use an existing host, place the host in maintenance and remove it from the existing environment. See Removing a Host in the Administration Guide for more information."

Note that hosts that are already set up as self-hosted engine hosts do not need to be reinstalled.

Don't we want to fix this flow to not need re-installation?

Comment 2 Simone Tiraboschi 2016-05-17 12:39:39 UTC

+1 for fixing, not sure what is wrong here.

Comment 3 Yaniv Lavi 2016-05-17 12:53:04 UTC

Let's try to fix this.

Comment 4 Simone Tiraboschi 2016-07-22 16:31:50 UTC

I tried to reproduce with 4.0.2 deploying an additional host as a standard host, then removing it and finally redeploying as an HE host.
I tried with CLI and from the webui.
I didn't found any specific issue so I'm moving this to QE, testOnly.

Comment 6 Jiri Belka 2016-08-01 13:57:18 UTC

ok, ovirt-engine-4.0.2.3-0.1.el7ev.noarch
