  • Unable to mount hosted_storage domain on newly added Host

    Posted on

    Hi community,
    I have RHEV self-hosted engine installed on a single server. The virtual disk for the engine is located at NFS storage domain "hosted_storage". NFS server supports only NFSv4.
    During initial installation of the hosted-engine I was asked about NFS version I would like to use (and I chose v4), thus single server host I ran the installation on also mount this NFS storage domain using v4.
    Now, when I tried to add one more host (second hw server), process fails on the stage of mounting hosted_storage domain, since its nfs version option is set to v3 (please see the image at the end of this post)

    I tried to use ovirt-shell to update nfs client options to use version 4, however it did not reflect any effect of this command:

    [oVirt shell (connected)]# update storagedomain hosted_storage --storage-nfs_version v4
    
    id                           : 5d45cef8-b2e6-4208-84d1-a21e1c9dd499

    storage-path                 : /NFS
    storage-type                 : nfs
    storage_format               : v3
    type                         : data
    used                         : 80530636800
    warning_low_space_indicator  : 10
    wipe_after_delete            : False
    

    How would I change NFS version to v4 for hosted_storage domain without setting it to Maintenance mode?
