migration enhancements feature
by Tomas Jelinek 15 Sep '15

15 Sep '15

Hi all, there is an effort for enhancing the speed and convergence of the migrations (especially for large VMs). The feature page targeted for 4.0 is [1]. TL;DR: - remove current logic from VDSM and move to engine in form of policies - employ post-copy migration - employ traffic shaping - protect destination VDSM against migration storms Any comments more than welcome!

NetworkManager in Ovirt-Node
by Tolik Litovsky 14 Sep '15

14 Sep '15

Hi I see that NetworkManager was added as dependency of ovirt node. It is problematic since it tries to take control of interfaces for which we have no ifcfg file. Does any of vdsm code use NetworkManager service ? -- Best regards Tolik Litovsky RHEV-H Team Red Hat Red Hat: trustworthy, transformative technology. Powered by the community. Connect at redhat.com

Error while signing in application
by Neha Agarwal 14 Sep '15

14 Sep '15

Hi I'm really new to oVirt and basically plan to work on moVirt for which I'm setting up the engine. I'm running livecd of oVirt on my machine because of some reasons it's not getting installed in the virtual environment(after booting it shows a black loading screen which continues forever). I used VirtualBox on Ubuntu and gave 6gb RAM to the machine. I have abandoned virtual environment as of now. Now I boot the OS with livecd, the engine setup completes successfully and I can open the localdomain and add new VMs but I get this error when logging in the app(screenshots attached). My laptop and mobile are connected to different LAN ports(different IP addresses). There's no option of connecting laptop to same wifi(no wifi enable option in ovirt). Can I get some help please. I'm totally new to the working of oVirt but I wish to learn and proceed. Thanks Neha

Fwd: [ovirt-users] How to use ovirt-guest-agent without VDSM?
by Nick Xiao 11 Sep '15

11 Sep '15

Hi I have added channel device to vm already. And viewing vdsm/virt/guestagent.py now. Can give me some suggesting. Thanks Nick Xiao Forwarded conversation Subject: How to use ovirt-guest-agent without VDSM? ------------------------ From: *Nick Xiao* <nicks.xiao(a)gmail.com> Date: 2015-09-09 18:58 GMT+08:00 To: users(a)ovirt.org In my environment i want to use ovirt-ga replace qemu-ga. Hypervisor is Ubuntu 14.04 (OpenStack Icehouse) and the virtual machine is Ubuntu 14.04 cloudimage. In Hypervisor launch a instance and attach a chardev, like: # ps -ef | grep guest_agent libvirt+ 2649 1 1 Sep08 ? 00:15:36 /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 ... -chardev socket,id=charchannel0,path=/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/org.qemu.guest_agent.0.instance-00000210.sock,server,nowait -device virtserialport,bus=virtio-serial0.0,nr=1,chardev=charchannel0,id=channel0,name=org.qemu.guest_agent.0 ... In virtual machine was installed ovirt-guest-agent 1.0.11-1.1 and service running OK. But i don't know how to get memory usage and other information in hypervisor(OpenStack compute node)? I have failed when i try to use linux command 'socat' and python socket. I need some sample or link. Thanks a lot!

I'm almost certain that ovirt-ga searches for a device with the name 'com.redhat.rhevm.vdsm' when starting up. Once you are connected, take a look at vdsm/virt/guestagent.py in the vdsm source code for hints about how to talk to the agent. -- Adam Litke

Packaging ovirt-engine following Fedora packaging guidelines
by Sandro Bonazzola 10 Sep '15

10 Sep '15

Hi, back in January 2015[1] we started looking into packaging ovirt-engine following Fedora packaging guidelines[2]. We pushed several patches still in draft / wip [3][4][5] and opened a tracker bug [6]. We also started packaging missing dependencies in Fedora [7][8][9] and for CentOS Virt SIG[10] Please ensure that any new dependency added in pom files at build / test / runtime is available in Fedora / EPEL / oVirt / CentOS Virt SIG repo ( I can build for CentOS Virt SIG if a package is missing, just provide the src.rpm from Fedora / EPEL). Please help adding correct dependencies in the spec file for maven dependencies. This is a best effort feature we're trying to do at integration level for 4.0, not yet targeted to it, but will help if we start working together avoiding to add new un-packaged dependencies.
