What about: Test failed: Failed to run fence action on host '<FQDN-of-my-host>', no available proxy host to run the operation. (In reply to Oved Ourfali from comment #1) > What about: > Test failed: Failed to run fence action on host '<FQDN-of-my-host>', no > available proxy host to run the operation. What if we'll change the sentence: "Test failed: Failed to run fence action on host '<FQDN-of-my-host>', no available proxy host to run the operation. You need at leas one available host for the successful test."

There are different rules for the proxy selection, so I wouldn't go into adding the last sentence. Well - we need some decision here, please help us, thank you. I think, we either should add this TEXT change or not to fail test when adding first host - due to workflow. Is confusing. User did nothing wrong, but get Fail message.

Is there an option to disable/grey out the test button on first host in the cluster?

I can cope with that. Currently we don't have such setting. Would it be possible to add such functionality?
But you have other cases like fee hosts, but none is reachable. I'd suggest to either change the error, or add an information icon near the test, that says it might fail in case of not finding a host to run on.

I'll change to: "Test failed: Failed to run fence status-check on host xxx. No other host is available to serve as proxy for the operation". OK?

Moran? works for me, thanks. verified in rhevm-3.6.0-0.18.el6.noarch current message: Test failed: Failed to run fence status-check on host '$HOST'. No other host was available to serve as proxy for the operation. oVirt 3.6.0 has been released on November 4th, 2015 and should fix this issue. If problems still persist, please open a new BZ and reference this one. oVirt 4.0 has same massage with apc settings set. Ovirt engine log: Can not run fence action on host no suitable proxy host was found. *** Bug 1380647 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I am with same problem used Ovirt 4.0 with ipmilan Ovirt 4.05 same error with ilo2 card. From cli all works fine. Can not run fence action on host 'hosted_engine_1', no suitable proxy host was found |
Created attachment 1061025 [details] PM-host.png Description of problem: The message on PM Tab of Host is not descriptive enough. Current message: Test failed: Failed to run fence action on host '<FQDN-of-my-host>', no proxy was found. Which proxy? I already set WebSocket Proxy during installation; our company WEB proxy is also set ;) I know, but can you imagine ppl who are using it? Which proxy should I set? Aha, how should I know this is term for an available host in same Cluster/DC (based on setting)? Please either provide link for documentation or (even better) rephrase error message - I could imagine: "No other host available in current realm for acting as fence proxy". There is plenty space on the window (see att scrnshot).
