Fixed In Version:		Doc Type:	Enhancement
Doc Text:	Previously, you could only test a host's network connectivity with ICMP (ping). Sometimes the gateway does not reply to a ping request, such as when ping is blocked at the network level. When such a failure occurred during the installation of a self-hosted engine, the installation failed. Now you can test network connectivity by checking if the DNS resolution is working, by pinging the gateway, by testing a TCP connection to a configurable port on a configurable host, or you can proceed with installation without running any test.

According to https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-site/blob/529f45a80942556d1ee62cef674df48fa38ce60d/source/develop/release-management/features/sla/hosted-engine-network-check.html.md
QE change the testing_ack to "+"

Comment 2 Wei Wang 2019-05-17 09:03:14 UTC

Test Version
RHVH-4.3-20190516.1-RHVH-x86_64-dvd1.iso
cockpit-ovirt-dashboard-0.12.9-1.el7ev.noarch
ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-2.3.8-1.el7ev.noarch
ovirt-hosted-engine-ha-2.3.1-1.el7ev.noarch

Test Steps:
1. Clean install RHVH-4.3-20190516.1-RHVH-x86_64-dvd1.iso
2. Open cockpit web UI : http://localhost:9090
3. Start the hosted-engine wizard
4. Set "Network Test" to DNS/ping/TCP/None in engine vm setting.
5. Deploy hosted engine


Result:
1. Hosted engine deploy successfully
2. Three parameters network_test, tcp_t_address, tcp_t_port in hosted-engine.conf have set rightly.

Bug is fixed, change the status to "VERIFIED"
