Description khartsoe@redhat.com 2017-02-22 15:44:21 UTC
Description of problem:
Prompts listed in "C. Automatically set up storage and install hosted engine -> Step 9" (https://access.redhat.com/articles/2922421) did not display in test deployment.

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


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:
I didn't get prompted for iptables, a boot disk, or cloud-init.  I did get prompted to provide the fqdn and I believe I was prompted to write the fqdn to the local hosts, there were other prompts as well, but I didn't take note of them all. 

Expected results:

    When prompted to configure iptables, specify No.
    When prompted for a device to boot from, specify disk. This automatically selects the correct appliance.
    When prompted to configure cloud-init, specify Yes, and enter a root password for the Hosted Engine VM. This generates cloud-init configuration details using the FQDN assigned to the Hosted Engine VM.


Additional info:
Per Ken Bell's test feedback (kbell)

I checked the table and everything looks fine for me. When installing hosted-engine on a RHVH setup, if appliance is not found in the system it asks a question , appliance is not installed on the system. Do you want to install it now? 

@sas, Should we be adding this to the table? what do you think?

Not required, we just document the possible values for configuration of hosted-engine VM. 

One can't proceed with the setup without saying 'Yes'. The status clearly explains that there is no appliance installed.

Hi Laura,

We need to update the RAM. We can't go with default in this case.

I remember there was OOM kill with 4GB RAM ( default value ) and in that mail thread, it was mentioned that with 8GB RAM all worked well. So I feel minimum RAM should be 8GB and recommended is 16GB. 

@Sahina - could you clarify ? What can be added to the docs ?

We need to highlight that, so the user doesn't miss that

Kasturi has updated with her testing that the latest appliance (rhvm-appliance-4.1-20170403.0 ) has the configuration that sets the Engine RAM size to 16GB.

So nothing needs to be edited. Moving this bug back to ON_QA

Question and answers provided in the table looks good to me. Moving this to verified state.

Fixed in RHGS 3.3 documentation.
