Gerrit very slow again - reload takes many seconds
by Nir Soffer 24 Jan '21

24 Jan '21

This is not a new issue, we see this every few months. In the past I think this was solved by restarting gerrit. I compared our gerrit to other installations: https://go-review.googlesource.com/ https://review.opendev.org/ Both reloads in about 1 second. Our gerrit takes 10-15 seconds. Go gerrit is using: 3.3.1-812-g388176bbb4 Openstack is using: 3.2.6-28-g4a9ffec296-dirty We use: 2.16.23 Looking in https://www.gerritcodereview.com/ current version is 3.3.1. Looks like we are using an old version. Nir

OST on Stream
by Michal Skrivanek 22 Jan '21

22 Jan '21

There seems to be multiple issues really 1) First it fails on “unknown state” of ovirt-engine-notifier service. Seems the OST code is not handling service states well and just explodes 2) Either way, the problem is it's stopped. It should be running 3) if you start it manually it gets to the engine-config test and restarts engine. It explodes here again, apparently same reason as #1 4) host installation fails - didi’s https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/ovirt-engine/+/113101/ is fixing it 5) verify_engine_notifier fails when we try to stop it. it’s not running due to #2 and it explodes anyway due to #1 rest seems to work fine except few more #1 issues, so that’s good… Marcin, can you please prioritize #1? Martin, any idea about notifier? Thanks, michal

[ANN] oVirt 4.4.5 Second Release Candidate is now available for testing
by Sandro Bonazzola 22 Jan '21

22 Jan '21

oVirt 4.4.5 Second Release Candidate is now available for testing The oVirt Project is pleased to announce the availability of oVirt 4.4.5 Second Release Candidate for testing, as of January 21st, 2021. This update is the fifth in a series of stabilization updates to the 4.4 series. How to prevent hosts entering emergency mode after upgrade from oVirt 4.4.1 Note: Upgrading from 4.4.2 GA or later should not require re-doing these steps, if already performed while upgrading from 4.4.1 to 4.4.2 GA. These are only required to be done once. Due to Bug 1837864 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1837864> - Host enter emergency mode after upgrading to latest build If you have your root file system on a multipath device on your hosts you should be aware that after upgrading from 4.4.1 to 4.4.5 you may get your host entering emergency mode. In order to prevent this be sure to upgrade oVirt Engine first, then on your hosts: 1. Remove the current lvm filter while still on 4.4.1, or in emergency mode (if rebooted). 2. Reboot. 3. Upgrade to 4.4.5 (redeploy in case of already being on 4.4.5). 4. Run vdsm-tool config-lvm-filter to confirm there is a new filter in place. 5. Only if not using oVirt Node: - run "dracut --force --add multipath” to rebuild initramfs with the correct filter configuration 6. Reboot. Documentation - If you want to try oVirt as quickly as possible, follow the instructions on the Download <https://ovirt.org/download/> page. - For complete installation, administration, and usage instructions, see the oVirt Documentation <https://ovirt.org/documentation/>. - For upgrading from a previous version, see the oVirt Upgrade Guide <https://ovirt.org/documentation/upgrade_guide/>. - For a general overview of oVirt, see About oVirt <https://ovirt.org/community/about.html>. Important notes before you try it Please note this is a pre-release build. The oVirt Project makes no guarantees as to its suitability or usefulness. This pre-release must not be used in production. Installation instructions For installation instructions and additional information please refer to: https://ovirt.org/documentation/ This release is available now on x86_64 architecture for: * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.3 or newer * CentOS Linux (or similar) 8.3 or newer This release supports Hypervisor Hosts on x86_64 and ppc64le architectures for: * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.3 or newer * CentOS Linux (or similar) 8.3 or newer * oVirt Node 4.4 based on CentOS Linux 8.3 (available for x86_64 only) See the release notes [1] for installation instructions and a list of new features and bugs fixed. Notes: - oVirt Appliance is already available for CentOS Linux 8 - oVirt Node NG is already available for CentOS Linux 8 - We found a few issues while testing on CentOS Stream so we are still basing oVirt 4.4.5 Node and Appliance on CentOS Linux.

OST design document
by Marcin Sobczyk 20 Jan '21

20 Jan '21

Hi All, I've prepared a google doc that tries to roughly describe the changes being made/planned in OST project and the rationale behind them. Please find it under this link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vY4K5YhI9wYvArJD6pW3poBxyq-geS4pTYU8-R0… I'm really bad at working with google docs, so if the link doesn't work for you please ping me privately and I'll fix it. Any feedback is very appreciated. Regards, Marcin
