RHBA-2018:0561 - ovirt-hosted-engine-ha bug fix update for 4.1.10

Synopsis

ovirt-hosted-engine-ha bug fix update for 4.1.10

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory None

Topic

An updated ovirt-hosted-engine-ha package is 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 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.

Changes to the ovirt-hosted-engine-ha component:

  • Previously, /etc/hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf was overwritten each time hosted-engine --get-shared-config was used due to a problem distinguishing between reload and refresh.

In this release, hosted-engine --get-shared-config and hosted-engine --set-shared-config contain new options that enable local values to be correctly distinguished from shared values. The following configuration "types" (--type) were changed/added:

  • he_conf is now represented by he_local (local /etc)

  • he_shared (shared version of he_local used for newly deployed hosts) (BZ#1554283)

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
