GlusterFS storage domain disappears while deploying hosted-engine
by Christopher Pereira 08 Apr '15

08 Apr '15

Sandro, Please take a look at BZ 1201355. In my last comment, I posted a solution to keep the storage and the hosted-engine VM alive during hosted-engine --deploy. We just need to move the glusterfs process out from the vdsmd.service cgroup, so the storage and VM are not killed during vdsmd restart. Please let me know when I can test a patched nightly build. Regards, Christopher

I do not follow. 1. if you are using ntpd on hosts and hosts are in sync you can use distributed timestamps. detecting if host is synced can be done using either (based on what actually installed): ntpq -c rv | grep -q clock_sync && echo ok chronyc waitsync 1 && echo ok 2. you can also measure the time diff between hosts by clockdiff or similar process and avoid the need of ntpd deployed. 3. you may be able to calculate the time within in the handover is given to remote and eliminate the network time. Not sure what your implementation is. Alon

vdsm hosts clock sync
by Shahar Havivi 07 Apr '15

07 Apr '15

Hi, I want to add a new feature that reports migration actual downtime (the time that the VM was inaccessible to the user). Libvirt reports that information but the vdsm hosts need to be in sync by clock time. I can measure the ping for NTP server an report back to the user if the ping is too long (more then ~100ms or so) - a way to do that is via ntpstat shell command. The NTP delay can be report back via vdsStats and can be performed every few hours or so. Anyone knows of a better way that we can sync between hosts? Thank you, Shahar Havivi.

Failing patch because of wrong documentation generation
by Sagi Shnaidman 06 Apr '15

06 Apr '15

hi all we have a failing jenkins job because of problematic patch: https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/39186/ 1) First of all there were no added package dependencies, that caused to job to fail on all platforms: http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-engine-sdk_master_create-rpms_merged/212/ but this could be solved by my patch: https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/39569/ 2) Secondly, the python-sphinx module on el6 has a very early version with different command name for document generation and this causes to fail on el6: http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-engine-sdk_master_create-rpms_merged/217/ So the patch should be reverted and rewritten and tested before it's merged on all platforms. Also you can see that nobody has reviewed this patch and this is a main root cause to such problems. This is always better to have the patch to be reviewed by anybody, otherwise it makes all Gerrit process completely useless and pushes problems forward instead of locating them on early stages. -- Thanks

oVirt Translation

02 Apr '15

Hello! I would be interested to know how people can contribute to oVirt by providing translations of interface. I tried to look at the Zanata project (https://translate.zanata.org/zanata/project/view/ovirt) but I didn't find out how I can start translating. Any guidelines? Thank you!
