by lu.alfonsi＠almaviva.it
Good morning,
i have a difficult enviroment with 20 Hypervisors based on ovirt 3.4.3-1 and i would like to reach the 4.3 version. Which are the best steps to achieve these objective?
Thanks in advance

Re: Single instance scaleup.

Hi Leo,
As you do not have a distributed volume , you can easily switch to replica 2 arbiter 1 or replica 3 volumes.
You can use the following for adding the bricks:

Failed to add storage domain
by thunderlight1＠gmail.com
Hi!
I have installed oVirt using the iso ovirt-node-ng-installer-4.3.2-2019031908.el7. I the did run the Host-engine deployment through Cockpit.
I got an error when it tries to create the domain storage. It sucessfully mounted the NFS-share on the host. Bellow is the error I got:

How to connect to a guest with vGPU ?
by Josep Manel Andrés Moscardó
Hi,
I got vGPU through mdev working but I am wondering how I would connect
to the client and make use of the GPU. So far I try to access the
console through SPICE and at some point in the boot process it switches
to GPU and I cannot see anything else.
Thanks.

ovirt-guest-agent for CentOS 8
by Eduardo Mayoral
Hi,
Just like many of you I am testing my first CentOS 8 VMs on top of ovirt.
I am not finding the package ovirt-guest-agent.noarch . Closest I can
find is qemu-guest-agent.x86_64
After installing and starting it, I do see information reported on the
"Guest info" tab.
Can anybody confirm if this is indeed the agent we should be using? Is
there - or will there be - a more specific package for ovirt guests?
Thanks!

Re: Hyperconverged setup questions
by Strahil
Hi Marko,
I guess you can use distributed-replicated volumes and oVirt cluster with host triplets.

Re: Damaged hard disk in volume replica gluster
by Strahil
As you are replacing an old brick, you have to recreate the old LV and mount it on the same location.
Then you can use the gluster's "reset-brick" (i thing ovirt UI has that option too) and all data will be replicated there.
You got also the "replace-brick" option if you decided to change the mount location.
P.S.: with replica volumes your volume should be still working, in case it has stopped - you have to investigate before proceeding.
Best Regards,

Vm suddenly paused with error "vm has paused due to unknown storage error"
by Jasper Siero
Hi all,
Since we upgraded our Ovirt nodes to CentOS 7 a vm (not a specific one but never more then one) will sometimes pause suddenly with the error "VM ... has paused due to unknown storage error". It happens now two times in a month.
The Ovirt node uses san storage for the vm's running on it. When a specific vm is pausing with an error the other vm's keeps running without problems.
The vm runs without problems after unpausing it.
Versions:
CentOS Linux release 7.1.1503
vdsm-4.14.17-0

Ovirt-engine-ha cannot to see live status of Hosted Engine
by asm＠pioner.kz
Good day for all.
I have some issues with Ovirt 4.2.6. But now the main this of it:
I have two Centos 7 Nodes with same config and last Ovirt 4.2.6 with Hostedengine with disk on NFS storage.
Also some of virtual machines working good.
But, when HostedEngine running on one node (srv02.local) everything is fine.
After migrating to another node (srv00.local), i see that agent cannot to check livelinness of HostedEngine. After few minutes HostedEngine going to reboot and after some time i see some situation. After migration to another node (srv00.local) all looks OK.

As we can see, agent thinking that HostedEngine just in powering up mode. I cannot to do anythink with it. I allready reinstalled many times srv00 node without success.
One time i even has to uninstall ovirt* and vdsm* software. Also here one interesting point, after installing just "yum install http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release42.rpm" on this node i try to install this node from engine web interface with "Deploy" action. But, installation was unsuccesfull, before i didnt install ovirt-hosted-engine-ha on this node. I dont see in documentation that its need bofore installation of new hosts. But this is for information and checking. After installing ovirt-hosted-engine-ha node was installed with HostedEngine support. But the main issue not changed.
Thanks in advance for help.
