Re: [ovirt-users] Re: [=EXTERNAL=] Re: help using nvme/tcp storage with cinderlib and Managed Block Storage
by Benny Zlotnik 24 Feb '22

24 Feb '22

Switching to +devel Browsing the code a bit, I think a good starting point would be https://github.com/oVirt/vdsm/blob/500c035903dd35180d71c97791e0ce4356fb77ad… - if volume_type not in ("rbd", "iscsi"): + if volume_type not in ("rbd", "iscsi", "lightos"): And it's possible that it would be all that's required to make it work on ovirt >=4.5 https://github.com/oVirt/vdsm/blob/500c035903dd35180d71c97791e0ce4356fb77ad… The path resolver might warn, but it looks like it would return /dev/nvme0n so the generated udev rule should come out correct I'm happy to assist if it turns out to be more challenging (and if not) :)

[Call to Action] oVirt 4.5 localization updated in zanata
by Sandro Bonazzola 24 Feb '22

24 Feb '22

Hi, https://zanata.ovirt.org/ has been updated with new text to be translated. If you want to help with this, please follow https://ovirt.org/develop/localization.html The ovirt-web-ui and ovirt-engine-ui-extensions projects lack Italian, Czech and Turkish translation. The oVirt engine project needs some touch on all the translations but especially on Italian, Czech, Russian and Turkish Thanks, -- Sandro Bonazzola MANAGER, SOFTWARE ENGINEERING, EMEA R&D RHV Red Hat EMEA sbonazzo(a)redhat.com Red Hat respects your work life balance.

Dear Ovirt Hackers, (CZ: pokud to pomuze - muzeme i cesky) we are dealing with hosted engine deployment issue on a fresh AMD EPYC servers: and we are ready to donate hardware to Ovirt community after we pass this issue ( :-) ) 0/ base infra: - 3 identical physical servers (produced in 2021-4Q) - fresh, clean and recent version of centos 8 stream installed (@^minimal-environment) - servers are interconnected with cisco switch, each other are network visible, all with nice internet access (NAT) 1/ storage: - all 3 servers/nodes host nice and clean glusterfs (v9.5) and volume "vol-images01" is ready for VM images - ovirt hosted engine deployment procedure: - easily accept mentioned glusterfs storage domain - mount it during "hosted-engine --deploy" with no issue - all permissions are set correctly at all glustrfs nodes ("chown vdsm.kvm vol-images01") - no issue with storage domain at all 2/ ovirt - hosted engine deployment: - all 3 servers successfully deployed recent ovirt version with standart procedure (on top of minimal install of centos 8 stream): dnf -y install ovirt-host virt-host-validate: PASS ALL - at first server we continue with: dnf -y install ovirt-engine-appliance hosted-engine --deploy (pure commandline - so no cockpit is used) DEPLOYMENT ISSUE: - during "hosted-engine --deploy" procedure - hosted engine becomes temporairly accessible at:https://server01:6900/ovirt-engine/ - with request to manualy set "ovirtmgmt" virtual nic - Hosts > server01 > Network Interfaces > [SETUP HOST NETWORKS] "ovirtmgmt" dropped to eno1 - [OK] - than All pass fine - and host "server01" becomes Active - back to commandline to Continue with deployment "Pause execution until /tmp/ansible.jksf4_n2_he_setup_lock is removed" by removing the lock file - deployment than pass all steps_until_ "[ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Check engine VM health]" ISSUE DETAILS: new VM becomes not accessible in the final stage - as it should be reachable at its final IP: [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Fail if Engine IP is different from engine's he_fqdn resolved IP] [ ERROR ] fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Engine VM IP address is while the engine's he_fqdn ovirt-engine.mgmt.pss.local resolves to 10.210.1.101.

ovirt-engine git repository is going to be moved to GitHub on Friday Feb 4th
by Martin Perina 04 Feb '22

04 Feb '22

Hi, We have solved the RPM build issue on github, so we are going to move ovirt-engine git repository from Gerrit <https://gerrit.ovirt.org/admin/repos/ovirt-engine> to GitHub <https://github.com/ovirt/ovirt-engine> this Friday Feb 4th. The mirroring from gerrit to github is going to be disabled at 14:00 CET and ovirt-engine repository on Gerrit <https://gerrit.ovirt.org/admin/repos/ovirt-engine> is going to be changed to read-only, so all open patches on gerrit will need to be converted to GitHub PRs by their owners. If you haven't worked with GitHub previously please check Working with oVirt on GitHub <https://www.ovirt.org/develop/dev-process/working-with-github.html>. Feel free to reply to this email if you have any additional questions or concerns. Thanks, Martin -- Martin Perina Manager, Software Engineering Red Hat Czech s.r.o.

vdsm network tests fail on centos 9
by Vojtech Juranek 02 Feb '22

02 Feb '22

Hi Ales, vdsm network tests started to fail on centos 9 with Error: executable file `/usr/sbin/init` not found in $PATH see [1]. Any idea what's wrong? Could be related to recent container changes [2]? (however, CI has passed for this change, so probably not?) Thanks Vojta [1] https://github.com/oVirt/vdsm/runs/5038009780?check_suite_focus=true [2] https://github.com/oVirt/vdsm/commit/ dc15a96500b3add9d330b1fd3c36a451c79102fc
