answer file

Comment 3 Ido Rosenzwig 2018-04-17 09:25:42 UTC
Try to change the header of the answerfile to: [environment:default]
Does it help?

Comment 4 Kobi Hakimi 2018-04-17 14:57:11 UTC
I started to deploy but it succeeds... 
so I investigate it and found out that because it's installed on rhvh-4.2.2.1-0.20180404.0 we have there ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-2.2.15-1.el7ev.noarch

I'll try on different env and update.

It didn't help 
attached the new answer file with [environment:default] section first

 [environment:init]
 DIALOG/autoAcceptDefault=bool:True
 [environment:default]

was correct, please keep it

Comment 8 Simone Tiraboschi 2018-04-18 09:31:06 UTC
In upstream CI test answer file template we are using:

 OVEHOSTED_NETWORK/fqdn=str:@HOSTEDENGINE@.@DOMAIN@
 OVEHOSTED_VM/cloudinitInstanceDomainName=str:@DOMAIN@
 OVEHOSTED_VM/cloudinitInstanceHostName=str:@HOSTEDENGINE@.@DOMAIN@

Can you please try explicitly setting all the three values?
