ovirt-hosted-engine-ha bug fix and enhancement update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated ovirt-hosted-engine-ha packages that fix several bugs and add various
enhancements are now available.
Description
The ovirt-hosted-engine-ha package enables the self-hosted engine to be highly
available. A self-hosted engine is a virtualized environment in which the Red
Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager runs on a virtual machine on the hosts
managed by the Manager. If the host running the virtual machine goes into
maintenance, the virtual machine is migrated automatically to another host in
the environment.
All Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager users should install this update,
which includes this enhancement.
Changes to the ovirt-hosted-engine-ha component:
- Previously, ovirt-ha-agent did not always wait long enough before attempting
to connect to storage, which would result in a failure to connect. Now, the wait
time is configurable so that the agent will wait long enough, and will retry if
necessary, to successfully connect to storage. (BZ#1119699, BZ#1119702)
- Previously, in the case of hosted engine virtual machine migration,
ovirt-ha-agent was giving a bad score to the destination host because the hosted
engine virtual machine was in a starting, rather than running, state. This meant
the agent would attempt to migrate the virtual machine to another host and the
process would repeat endlessly. Now, the starting state of a migrating virtual
machine is not treated as bad by the agent and the hosted engine virtual machine
migration completes successfully. (BZ#1119763)
Solution
