Huge queue for OST check patch job
by Marcin Sobczyk 16 Jul '20

16 Jul '20

Hi All, 'check-patch' pipeline for OST has currently a huge queue of jobs to be executed, some stuck since 14 hrs [1]. When testing patches for OST please consider trimming down the triggered pipelines like this [2], and marking the patch with "WIP" until it's ready. Also, when doing a whole series of patches, getting them in more quickly will help a lot too. Thanks, Marcin [1] https://jenkins.ovirt.org/view/oVirt%20system%20tests/job/ovirt-system-test… [2] https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/110304/6/stdci.yaml

Backups are expected to disappear, they are temporary objects used to manage the backup process. Once the backup process was finished you can do nothing with the backup object, and you cannot fetch the same backup data again. > and I couldn't try incremental. > The fact that the backup disappeared should not prevent the next backup. After you create a backup, you need to poll backup status until the backup is ready. while backup.phase != BackupPhase.READY: time.sleep(1) backup = backup_service.get()# to_checkpoint_id will be used as If the backup does not end in ready state, it failed, and you cannot do anything with this backup. When the backup is ready, you can fetch the to_checkpoint_id created for this backup. checkpoint_id = backup.to_checkpoint_id At this point you need to persist the checkpoint id. This will be used to create the incremental backup.

Please check the event log to understand the failure. Eyal, can you show how to get the error from the backup using the SDK, in a way that can be used by a program? e.g. a public error code that can be used to decide on the next step, and an error message that can be used for displaying error to users of the backup application. This should be added to the backup_vm.py example. Nir

code merges in ovirt-engine repo
by Michal Skrivanek 15 Jul '20

15 Jul '20

Hi all, we’re moving to 4.4.z development now and we need to keep a closer eye on automation results and making sure the build is not broken. For these reasons we’re considering moving to a similar model as vdsm, having a smaller set of people with merge rights to make sure the patches get in in the right order and they meet our sanity standards (OST, bug’s TM) Any objections/comments? Thanks, michal

Re: [ovirt-users] Using ovirt imageio

The most up to date information is here: https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/storage/increment… However the extents API is also outdated in the feature page. We are working on updating it. So here is example: First you must start backup with from_checkpoint_id argument: backup = backups_service.add( types.Backup( disks=disks, from_checkpoint_id="checkpoint-id", ) ) > "checkpoint-id" is the checkpoint created in the last backup. This starts a backup in in incremental mode. Dirty extents are available only in this mode. Then you start a transfer for download, using the backup id: transfer = imagetransfer.create_transfer( connection, disk, types.ImageTransferDirection.DOWNLOAD, backup=types.Backup(id=backup_uuid)) The transfer.transfer_url is the URL to download from, for example: https://host:54322/images/53787351-3f72-44a1-8a26-1323524fac4a Connect to host:54322 and send this request: GET /images/53787351-3f72-44a1-8a26-1323524fac4a/extents?context=dirty And parse the return json list, containing objects like: [ {"start": 0, "length": 65536, "dirty": true}, {"start": 65536, "length": 1048576, "dirty": false}, ... ] For example code of using the imageio API, see imageio http backend: https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-imageio/blob/d5aa0e1fe659f1bf1247516f83c71e0… https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-imageio/blob/d5aa0e1fe659f1bf1247516f83c71e0… We are adding a ImageioClient API that makes it easier to consume without writing any HTTP code: https://gerrit.ovirt.org/c/110068 With this you can use: with ImageioClient(transfer.transfer_url, cafile=args.cafile) as client: for extent in client.extent("dirty"): if extent.dirty: print("##dirty start={} length={}".format(extent.start, extent.length)) client.write_to(sys.stdout.buffer, extent.start, extent.length) print() This will stream the dirty extents to stdout. Not very useful as is, but illustrates how you can consume the data. Here is an example writing extents to a sparse stream format: https://gerrit.ovirt.org/c/110069 For complete backup example code see: https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine-sdk/blob/master/sdk/examples/backup_v… Note the new imagetransfer helper module: https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine-sdk/blob/master/sdk/examples/helpers/… Nir e-mail: l.kolacinski(a)storware.eu > <m.helbert(a)storware.eu> > > > > > *[image: STORWARE]* <http://www.storware.eu/> > > > > *ul.
