Description Greg Sheremeta 2016-09-16 20:46:04 UTC 
Description of problem:
[RFE] [performance] oVirt engine should detect that the engine cannot resolve itself and perform a warning to the customer at login.

This is typical cause of poor performance in oVirt.

What are we aiming for event in webadmin, error in engine.log, alert?

What is the result of this RFE, can we define this?

Good question. Both a dismissable alert box at the top of the app, and an ERROR log message for visibility.

(In the future, we'd use a patternfly toast notification or whatever patternfly dictates for such a use case. Plus log message.)
Comment 3 Yaniv Kaul 2016-11-29 20:38:37 UTC 
I suggest deferring from 4.1.
Comment 4 Greg Sheremeta 2016-11-29 20:44:18 UTC 
Indeed, I won't get to this before feature freeze.
Comment 5 Yaniv Kaul 2017-06-06 20:34:57 UTC 
Can we have an Ansible playbook to perform this?

How would that help?
You want to show that to the user.
Anyhow, of course a logic can be written to identify that at setup level. If that's where you're going then this should move to integration I guess.
Comment 7 Greg Sheremeta 2017-06-07 11:29:09 UTC 
There is an infra bug for showing at setup time. This BZ is to also add an alert in the UI.
Comment 8 Oved Ourfali 2017-06-19 12:30:41 UTC 
Closing this one as wontfix.
