This seems to be a duplicate of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1686575 ; I haven't been able to locate a document describing how to stop the engine deployment so some time is allotted to manually fix the new host configuration. Upstream documentation is here: https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-ansible-hosted-engine-setup/blob/master/README.md#make-changes-in-the-engine-vm-during-the-deployment We need to update our documentation downstream to include it. So should this be reassigned to a writer? (In reply to Steve Goodman from comment #3) > So should this be reassigned to a writer? yes The upstream documentation says: ---- To make manual adjustments you can set the variable he_pause_host to true. This will pause the deployment after the engine has been setup and create a lock-file at /tmp that ends with _he_setup_lock on the machine the role was executed on. The deployment will continue after deleting the lock-file, or after 24 hours ( if the lock-file hasn't been removed ). In order to proceed with the deployment, before deleting the lock-file, make sure that the host is on 'up' state at the engine's URL. Both of the lock-file path and the engine's URL will be presented during the role execution. ---- On which machine do you set the variable he_pause_host to true? Is this an environment variable? If not, in which file does this variable appear, and what is the exact line that should appear?

Redirecting question to Asaf (In reply to Steve Goodman from comment #5) > On which machine do you set the variable he_pause_host to true? Is this an > environment variable? If not, in which file does this variable appear, and > what is the exact line that should appear? There are a few ways to set this variable, you can find more details here [1]. There is no specific machine to set this variable on, you can run the playbook locally and set the var in the local machine (for example on the RHVH), or remotely (any machine) and set the var on the same machine you run the playbook from. The exact line that should appear (in a file for example): "he_pause_host": true [1] https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/playbooks_variables.html#defining-variables-at-runtime Re-targeting to 4.4.7 since oVirt 4.4.6 was released. This issue is past ovirt-4.4.8-1 development cycle. Moving to ovirt-4.4.9. If you believe this issue should be closed or moved back to 4.4.8-1 please do so. Otherwise, I would like to ask for updating tickets ahead of the development cycle deadline (release date). It looks like we fixed this already.
