  • Problem installing RHEVM 3.1 Beta

    Posted on

    I have a current running RHEVM 3.0 on RHEL 6.3 x86_64 that my company is evaluating versus VMware and so far it's been positive.

     

    I'm trying to upgrade it to the 3.1 beta and ran into a situation I don't know how to handle, and searching on redhat.com and google.com has turned up nothing helpful. I added the RHEVM 3 beta channel to the subscribed channels to the server.

     

    When I run rhevm-check-update I'm presented with this list of available packages:

    13 Updates available:
     * rhevm-3.1.0-11.el6ev.noarch
     * rhevm-backend-3.1.0-11.el6ev.noarch
     * rhevm-config-3.1.0-11.el6ev.noarch
     * rhevm-dbscripts-3.1.0-11.el6ev.noarch
     * rhevm-genericapi-3.1.0-11.el6ev.noarch
     * rhevm-iso-uploader-3.1.0-2.el6ev.noarch
     * rhevm-log-collector-3.1.0-2.el6ev.noarch
     * rhevm-notification-service-3.1.0-11.el6ev.noarch
     * rhevm-restapi-3.1.0-11.el6ev.noarch
     * rhevm-tools-common-3.1.0-11.el6ev.noarch
     * rhevm-userportal-3.1.0-11.el6ev.noarch
     * rhevm-webadmin-portal-3.1.0-11.el6ev.noarch
     * vdsm-bootstrap-4.9.6-28.0.el6_3.noarch

     

    The first time I tried to run rhevm-upgrade I received a message that I needed to update rhevm-setup, and I did that:

    # rpm -q rhevm-setup
    rhevm-setup-3.1.0-11.el6ev.noarch
     

    Now when I'm running rhevm-upgrade I'm getting a message that JBoss is dead, but pid file exists:

    Error: JBoss service is dead, but pid file exists
    Error: Upgrade failed.
     

    I check the log file in /var/log/ovirt-engine and see that it's trying to stop a service called ovirt-engine

    2012-08-21 15:51:45::DEBUG::common_utils::293::root:: Executing command --> '/sbin/service ovirt-engine status'

     

    I don't have that service configured, and cannot proceed.

     

    The documents for the 3.1 beta don't cover this, and again my searching hasn't been much help. Any guidance would be appreciated.

     

    Thanks!
