[Engine-devel] Share Your Thoughts
by Gilad Chaplik 24 Mar '14

24 Mar '14

Dear Devel Community Members, We are having a small discussion on patch: http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/25633/, bug 1065753 - "Maintenance operations on a VM would ask for an optional reason" (adding a note to stop/shutdown VM, that will be cleared when the VM go up). The proposed solution is to add a free text field in the VM entity, and to update it in command's parameters (StopVmParmas.. etc.). I think slightly different, my alternative is to enhance the current free text (comment field) into XML, and allow to add multiple comments that include types. You are welcome to read more about it in the patch's comments. Thoughts? Thanks, Gilad.

I missed this thread. You can put custom files under /usr/share/ovirt-engine/files it will be available for you at: http://<>/ovirt-engine/files Of course we do not support cgi-bin but plain files... but it may address your needs.

i need a php file to execute some bash scripts on the server, but when i integrate the ui-plugin ot the ovirt portal, it does not find path to my .php file. I have the HTML where as .PHP residing in the same location, can someone guide on uploading PHP files on JBOSS server, since ovirt runs on it.. if i want to run a PHP file, where should i save it? -- -Aditya Mamidwar

[Engine-devel] GWT Dev Mode unbearably slow in WebAdmin
by Greg Sheremeta 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Has anyone else noticed that GWT Dev Mode is unbearably slow for WebAdmin? On my machine, it's to the point where I might as well rebuild the entire application for every change and not bother with Dev Mode. Pages take 4 or 5 minutes to render. Sometimes after 5 minutes, I just give up, close everything, and rebuild the app. For now, I want to see if others have this issue. If we confirm that it's widespread, we can discuss ways to mitigate. Greg Sheremeta Red Hat, Inc. Sr. Software Engineer, RHEV Cell: 919-807-1086 gshereme(a)redhat.com

[Engine-devel] Small suggestions for engine-log-collector
by Vojtech Szocs 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Hi guys, based on my testing during last week's oVirt 3.4 RC test day [1], I have a couple of small suggestions for engine-log-collector: 1, in /etc/ovirt-engine/logcollector.conf - I think there's typo: #key-file=/etc/pki/engine/keys/engine_id_rsa should be: #key-file=/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/engine_id_rsa 2, to force password-based ssh auth, one has to do this: engine-log-collector -k "" because running this: engine-log-collector -k returns error message: error: -k option requires an argument however, help for -k option mentions *supplying* the argument: If a identity file is not supplied the program will prompt for a password. so either the help text should mention empty string, or -k option should allow missing argument (this was my initial understanding according to help text) Since these are just small things, I'm wondering if I should create RFE or if Keith/others can say if they are relevant. Thanks, Vojtech [1] http://etherpad.ovirt.org/p/3.4-testday-3

[Engine-devel] hosted engine in 3.4
by Jiri Moskovcak 20 Mar '14

20 Mar '14

Hi, I was testing the hosted-engine in 3.4 and ran into some troubles, so I'm going to share the results to get some help (or ideas how to fix those problems) Minor: 1. You need to have some MAC address with static ip and FQDN, otherwise you have to change /etc/hosts at least for the first part of the setup - I think the setup wizard should be improved to do this workaround automatically 2. When the VM install is complete I would expect the setup wizard to install the engine to the VM automatically - which at least in my case - doesn't happen - I found a mallformed fedora-virt-prerelease.repoo file on the installed vm, which might be the cause: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1075963 Major: 1. once I managed to install the engine to the vm it tried to add the host it was running on to the engine and it failed with a message "Host compatibility version doesn't match the cluster compatibility version", and then it marked the host as non operational which killed the vm with the engine, so the engine actually committed suicide... - the host and the engine were installed from the same repo, so I guess the incompatibility was caused by the CPU family, and even if I made the mistake I think the engine should be a bit more clever and not kill itself --Jirka

by Sandro Bonazzola 19 Mar '14

19 Mar '14

The oVirt team is pleased to announce that the 3.4.0 Second Release Candidate is now available for testing. Release notes and information on the changes for this update are still being worked on and will be available soon on the wiki[1]. Please ensure to follow install instruction from release notes if you're going to test it. The existing repository ovirt-3.4.0-prerelease has been updated for delivering this release candidate and future refreshes until final release. An oVirt Node iso will also be available soon. We decided to postpone Final Release by one week in order to properly test the bugs fixed since last Release Candidate. Help us make this the best release ever, testing it yourself!
