<br>
We upgraded from oVirt 3.5 and 3.6 and deleted the Default
cluster, so
<br>
now we have the Blank template with no DC and no Cluster,
thus our
<br>
users
<br>
can't use it.
<br>
<br>
Is there a way to manually set these two parameters to the
current DC
<br>
and Cluster values for the Blank template? I tried editing
it but see
<br>
no
<br>
option to set them.
<br>
<br>
Thanks.

Hi Nicolás,
<br>
<br>
Removing the default cluster should be ok, since the templates
don't
<br>
bind VMs to a DC/Cluster--you should be able to specify the
DC/Cluster
<br>
when creating a VM.

<br>
HTH,

Hi Greg,
<br>
<br>
I'll elaborate a bit further on the issue. I'm attaching a
screenshot of
<br>
the 'Templates' tab on the webadmin pane - As you can see, all
of them
<br>
have a Data Center and a Cluster assigned (columns 4 and 5) but
the
<br>
Blank template (because we deleted the default DC). Even if this
<br>
template has the 'Everyone' permission, as we're granting
permissions to
<br>
our users on the Data Center, they are not able to see the Blank
<br>
template in the list when deploying new machines in the
userportal view,
<br>
so currently they necessarily need to choose a template from the
list
<br>
which is not Blank, and that's an issue to some of them.
<br>
<br>
That's why I was wondering if there's a manual way to assign the
DC and
<br>
Cluster to the Blank template, even modifying it directly in the
DB, so
<br>
the users see it in the userportal.
<br>
<br>
Any hint is very appreciated.
<br>
<br>
Regards,
<br>
<br>
Nicolás

The default template is unbound to a DC/Cluster by design, so
while forcing an assignment in the db could work (not sure), it's
not supported and likely to break at some point. See [1] for
details on that 3.6 change.
<br>
<br>
However, since the root issue seems to be users not being able to
use the template, you should be able to assign permissions that
allow this from the Templates > Permissions sub-tab. If this
isn't working, it could be a bug.

Oh, now I see. Indeed, I was able to see the template in the side
'Template' tab, but unable to see it when deploying a machine. I
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
realized that for some reason the Blank template missed the
UserTemplateBasedVm permission (most probably someone accidentally
deleted it), so I added it back and now I can see it.<br>
<br>
Thanks very much for the insight.<br>
