[Engine-devel] oVirt automated test suites
by Shu Ming 25 May '12

25 May '12

Hi, I need a reasonable test suites to test VDSM APIs. I know most of tests are done from the engine side manually. But I think we need a reasonable test suites to define the typical workflows of engine usage calling into VDSM APIs and make sure all the functions are doing well. As engine publics REST-APIs, an automated test suites can be created on top of the REST-APs without much difficult. Any other comments about this idea? -- Shu Ming<shuming(a)linux.vnet.ibm.com> IBM China Systems and Technology Laboratory

[Engine-devel] CPU Pinning @engine
by Doron Fediuck 24 May '12

24 May '12

Hi All, Currently the VDSM has a CPU pinning hook. We'd like to add better support of it into the engine itself. Here's a design draft to cover it: http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Features/Design/cpu-pinning Please review and comment if needed. Thanks! -- /d Never say "OOPS!" always say "Ah, Interesting!"

[Engine-devel] restapi: New params for import VM/Template
by Gilad Chaplik 23 May '12

23 May '12

Hi All, I am adding the ability to import a VM or a Template to a storage-domain, when this VM or Template already exists in the destination storage domain. Until now, Backend failed this. Now I want to enable the user to specify that he wishes this VM/Template will be created again by a different name, i.e - cloned. [feature page: http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Features/ImportMoreThanOnce] I plan to achieve this using a new parameter, but I want to reach an agreement about this parameter's name. I thought simply to call it "clone". Another thing that I'll do in the patch-set is add the currently-missing ability to specify whether the snapshots of the VM, which is being imported, will be collapsed into a single snapshot (we have this ability in GUI). I am also deliberating about the name of this parameter. I thought about "collapse_snapshots" (same as in GUI). Does anyone think "clone" and "collapse_snapshots" are inappropriate and has better suggestions? Thanks, Gilad

[Engine-devel] network features review
by Livnat Peer 22 May '12

22 May '12

Hi All, This is a summary of comments we(*) gathered while reviewing the current network related functionality in oVirt, we'll open the relevant RFE/Bugs but wanted to share first to get comments: Default Gateway: ---------------- current status - In the UI/API we expose to the user the possibility to configure the default gateway for the host. We expose this option only when editing the management network. comments - Apparently we do not configure the host default gateway but the network gateway. 1. We need to fix the phrasing to gateway (not default gateway) 2. Why do we block it for networks which are not the management network 3. We need to support configuring the host default gateway. Non VM (Bridge-less) Network: ----------------------------- current status - During bootstrap we configure the management network on the host. We did not implement configuring bridge-less management network during bootstrap. comments - 1. Supporting bridge-less network is a new feature,the design of this feature did not include changing the bootstrap process which make this feature non-useful when it comes to management network. Today one can edit a network only when it is not attached to clusters, at this point you can change the management network to be non-VM network, the problem is that we configure the management network on the host during bootstrap and we do not get a parameter if to create a bridge or not (we always create a bridge). What we end up with is - we can't change the management network once we added clusters/hosts but if changing it before attaching a cluster we ignore it in the bootstrap process. Check connectivity: -------------------- current status - The 'check connectivity' functionality is available only when editing the management network, it validates that we did not loose connectivity to the host, if we did the changes are rolled backed automatically. comments - 1. Sometimes when changing configuration of another network we can 'damage' the connectivity to the host. We want to expose the check connectivity functionality on any network configuration change. VLAN tagging of management Network ----------------------------------- current status - The user can set a VLAN tag on the management network. comments - 1. Any configuration of the management network needs support in the bootstrap process (see explanation above for bridge-less network) 2. In case of VLAN tagging it is even more complicated, when adding a host to oVirt we add it's address and it can not be changed after the host was added to the system. in the bootstrap process we set the management network on the nic oVirt engine used to ssh through, unless the VLAN device is already configured and the IP used for the ssh is already on this VLAN (for which it will work) we can't set the network to be on another IP address. Rollback network configuration: -------------------------------- current status - We have the option to make changes to the host network configuration and not persist the changes (they won't survive machine reboot) comments - 1. We are missing the functionality of rolling back the changes (without rebooting the machine), this functionality is the complementary behavior of 'save network configuration'. Predefined bonds: ----------------- current status - In the bootstrap process we create bonds0-5 on the hosts and then we use them when creating a bond on the host comments - 1. Creating the bonds in the host during the bootstrap process is not needed and we can let the user choose the bond name (limited to bondX) and create bonds only upon request. Editing Network properties while Network is attached to cluster/s ------------------------------------------------------------------ current status - Changing the network properties is blocked if the network is attached to a cluster. comments - 1. We should relax this approach. to start with we can enable editing when there are no active hosts in the cluster/s. doing more than the above requires substantially more work both in VDSM and engine. Thank you, Livnat (*) we == {Dan Kenigsberg, Igor Lvovsky, Mike Kolesnik, Moti Asayag, Muli Salem, Alona Kaplan, Livnat Peer} (**) We have even longer list for the UI changes needed, for them we'll open bugs directly to avoid another long email.

[Engine-devel] oVirt and Quantum
by Gary Kotton 22 May '12

22 May '12

Hi, As part of a POC we have integrated Quantum (http://wiki.openstack.org/Quantum) into oVirt (http://www.ovirt.org/) This has been tested with the OVS and Linux Bridge plugins. The details of the integration can be found at - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Quantum_and_oVirt. Any comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Gary
