otopi missing from f19 master snapshot repo
by Greg Sheremeta 03 Feb '15

03 Feb '15

I noticed that there is no otopi available in http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-master-snapshot/rpm/fc19/noarch/ I didn't see it in any of the f19 master repos, actually. I had to install otopi from the fc20 repo. Not sure if this is intentional. Thanks, Greg Greg Sheremeta Red Hat, Inc. Sr. Software Engineer, RHEV Cell: 919-807-1086 gshereme(a)redhat.com

Using travis yaml files to specify dependencies and tests
by David Caro 03 Feb '15

03 Feb '15

--oLBj+sq0vYjzfsbl Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi everyone! After talking a bit with some of you, I think that we can start planning a common build and dependency declaration for tests for the ovirt products, to improve and automate most of the ci process and maintenance. Current status: =3D=3D Dependencies Right now we have 4 types of dependencies: * test dependencies * tarball/srcrpm build dependencies * rpm build dependencies * installation dependencies The last two are managed from the spec files through rpm/yum dependency systems. But the first ones are managed manually on the jobs on jenkins or puppet manifests. What separates it from the code that actually requires them and adds an extra layer of maintenance and synchronization between the code, the jenkins jobs and the puppet repository. =3D=3D Builds We started using autotools to build most of the projects, but it's not a global methodology and even being used on some projects, you need to tune the run for each of them, specifying different variables and running some side scripts. =3D=3D Tests Some projects use make check to run some of the tests, some tests are totally outside the code and run only in jenkins jobs. Some possible improvements: =3D=3D Tests/builds Using shell scripts: We talked before in another thread to create some generic script to build the artifacts for the product and to run the tests, namely we talked about having 3 executables (bash scripts probably) at the root of each project, that should not require any parameters: ./build-artifacts This should generate any artifacts to be archives (isos, rpms, debs, tarballs, ...) and leave them at ./exported-artifacts/ directory, for the build system to collect, removing any previous artifacts if needed. ./check_patch Runs all the tests required for any new patchset in gerrit, for non-merged changes, should be fast to run to get feedback easily ./check_merge Runs all the tests for any change that is going to be merged (right now we are not using gates, so it actually after merge, but the idea is to use this as gate for any merge to the repo). This can be more resource hungry than check_path. That way it will let you use easily any framework that you want to use for your project, but still let it be easy to maintain in the global ci/build system (you can use pip, tox, maven, gradle, autotools, make, rake, ...). This will not allow at first running tests in parallel in jenkins, but we can in the future add that possibility (for example, allowing the user to define more than one check script, like check_patch.mytest1 and check_patch.mytest2 and make jenkins run them in parallel). I started a POC of this process here [1] Using travis yaml files: Using a travis compliant yaml file [2]. That will be less flexible than the above solution and will not allow you to run tests in parallel, though it will let you use travis at any point to offload our ci if needed. =3D=3D Dependencies Using plain text files: Similar to the above scripts solution, I though of adding an extra file, with the same name, to declare the dependencies to run that script. Adding a suffix in case of different requirements for different distros (matching facter fact strings), for example: ./build-artifacts.req Main requirements file, used if no more specific one found. With a newline separated list of packages to install on the environment (jenkins will take care of which package manager to use). ./build-artifacts.req.fc20 Specific requirements for fc20 environment, replaces the general one if present. And the same for the other scripts (check_patch and check_merge). Using travis yaml file: Using a travis compliant yaml file with some extensions to declare the different dependencies for each type and os/distro. That will allow you to have only one extra file in your repo, though you'd have to duplicate some of the requirements as travis only has ubuntu and forces you to run scripts to install dependencies. What do you think? Do you have any better idea? ps. About using an external repository to store the scripts/requirements for the code. The issue with this is that it forces you to bind a code change in the code repo, to a script/dependency change in the scripts repo, and that adds a lot of extra maintenance and source of issues and failures. If you know a way of doing it like that without all the fuss, I'd love to hear it. For example, imagine that you have vdsm and the dependencies are in another repo, now you send a patch to vdsm that requires you to run a specific pep8 version to pass the patch tests, so you have to change the script repo to add that dependency, but doing that you will brake all the other patches tests because they require the older pep8 version, so you have to somehow specify in the vdsm patch that you require a specific commit from the scripts repo to be tested with... Having both in the same repo, allows you to do the code change and the dependency/script change in the same patchset, and test it right away with the correct scripts/deps. It also binds together code and tests to some point, what is nice to have in a product view, because you know for each version which tests it passed and have a better idea of the possible failures for that version.

Hi, I'd like to discuss how to properly report unmanaged networks and how to ask for their removal after org.ovirt.engine.core.common.action.VdcActionType#SetupNetworks is removed. We thought about several possibilities and so far the best one is following one. Reporting unmanaged networks on specific nic: ——————————————————————————————————————————————— We'd like to return new collection under: GET http://localhost:8080/api/hosts/{id}/nics/{id}/unmanagednetworks returning (reporting) unmanaged networks like this: <unmanaged_networks> <unmanaged_network> <nic_name>...</nic_name> <unmanaged_network_name>...</unmanaged_network_name> <vland_id>...</vland_id> </unmanaged_network> <unmanaged_network> ... </unmanaged_network> </unmanaged_networks> Removing unmanagedNetworks: ————————————————————————————— DELETE http://localhost:8080/api/hosts/{id}/nics/{id}/unmanagednetworks/{unmanaged… ======================= any ideas, hints, complaints, recommendations, confirmations are welcomed.

CORS enabled for oVirt REST API
by Jenny Kang 02 Feb '15

02 Feb '15

Hello, As part of my OPW project, I'm trying to build a mobile web UI for oVirt but I'm having some troubles. I cannot access the oVirt REST API because it doesn't allow cross origin resource sharing (CORS). The only way to access the API is to host the UI on the same IP as the engine. If it is enabled then people would be able to run the mobile UI directly from the desktop without hosting it anywhere. Do you have any suggestions on how to access oVirt REST API from another host inside the browser? Any plans on enabling CORS on the REST API? Thank you! Cheers Jenny

oVirt 3.6 Feature: Cumulative Network Usage Statistics
by Lior Vernia 01 Feb '15

01 Feb '15

Hello users and developers, Just put up a feature page for the aforementioned feature; in summary, to report total RX/TX statistics for hosts and VMs in oVirt. This has been requested several times on the users mailing list, and is especially useful for accounting in VDI deployments. You're more than welcome to review the feature page: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Cumulative_RX_TX_Statistics Note that this only deals with network usage - it'll be great if we have similar features for CPU and disk usage! Yours, Lior.

[DB] Diffrent UUIDs for inserted data per installation
by Eli Mesika 29 Jan '15

29 Jan '15

Hi I am trying to cleanup all the data insertion to the engine DB and make it more general The main drive to that is DB version squashing that was done manually and therefor was error prone ... I know that both storage_pool_id (a.k.a DC) and vds_group_id (a.k.a Cluster) needs to get a different UUID per installation. But I had found that UUIDs are generated per installation for also : table | column/s ------------------------------------ [cpu_profiles] : id [gluster_services] : id [mac_pools] : id [permissions] : id, object_id [vm_device]: device_id, vm_id [vm_static] : vm_guid [vnic_profiles] : id Please let me know if any of the above should be generated using the uuid_generate_v1() function on each installation or we can have static IDs for those. Thanks Eli Mesika
