[Users] New virtual disks will NOT reliably be placed where I specified
by Terry Phelps 04 Mar '12

04 Mar '12

I have a new ovirt installation that I am playing with. If it matters, I built it by installing and patching Fedora 16, installing the ovirt-engine RPM and then configuring this same machine as my "node", or host, or whatever you call it. I created 3 NFS shares on this machine for the 3 required domains, and then created those domains in the ovirt-engine. I have uploaded a ISO and created a couple of VMs and they work. HOWEVER, when create a virtual disk for my VMs, I specifiy the "data domain" as its location, and have then found, twice in three tries, that the virtual disk is placed on the "export domain". I am quite sure I am specifying my "data domain" when I create the disk. But then when I click on the VM, and then open the "General" tab, the "Resides on Storage Domain" field says "export". And when I look at the host, the virtual disk really IS in the export domain: [root@oravm2 exportdomain]# find . -type f | xargs ls -l ... -rw-rw---- 1 vdsm kvm 10737418240 Mar 1 09:17 ./0efcc135-2a17-4cfd-ba7d-c3735349d455/images/fda97fda-f0ca-4926-9a3e-af836466b5b1/9167e3a9-1e98-4f11-a99c-616adbe52f95 I can't imagine what I might be doing wrong to make this happen. There is no domain placement when I create the VM, as best I can tell. Placement is given only when I create the virtual disk. Anyone have an idea on this?

[Users] RHEL 5.x on oVirt - high CPU on KVM-host
by Winfried de Heiden 03 Mar '12

03 Mar '12

Running both CentosOS 5.x and RHEL 5.x with all te latest patches gives a rather high CPU-load on the KVM-host, even when the machine is doing nothing. On the virtual server CPU-load is almost 0%. Installingen ktune and chaning the I/O scheduler to cfq gives a small change, CPU-load drops from apr. 26% to 19%. Adding devider=10 to the kernel parameters gives no improvement. Both nic and disk use virtio. It seems to be a kernel problem (there numerous thing to find on the internet) but anyone knows a solution? Winfried

Hi Vang and All. I build this rpm's for testing oVirt in CentOS 6.2, and it's working in my test environment. Today, I checked engine installation on fresh (but updated) CentOs 6.2 without problem. You can try to cleanup ovirt (engine-cleanup) remove all ovirt, vdsm and jboss packages (yum remove ovirt* vdsm* jboss*) clean yum cache and install ovirt-engine again. 03.03.2012 2:01 пользователь "Fong Vang" <sudoyang(a)gmail.com> написал:

Got this error on a Fedora 16 box : virt-v2v: Installation failed because the following files referenced in the configuration file are required, but missing: /usr/share/virtio-win/drivers/i386/Win2008 What is this? Fedora does not have a virtio-win package but has an .iso. Does libguestfs take care of this need? Do we just need to put the .iso somewhere to meet this need? -- Dominic Kaiser Greater Boston Vineyard Director of Operations cell: 617-230-1412 fax: 617-252-0238 email: dominic(a)bostonvineyard.org

Re: [Users] Can anyone help? Spice not connecting - I have spice-xpi installed.
by Morgan Cox 02 Mar '12

02 Mar '12

Hi I have decided to bite the bullet and re-install everything,.... Can someone check and see if this idea seems like it will work... I will have 3 servers - 1. Ovirt engine (Lan address + external address) : name - frontend.server.com - 2. Storage server - debian NFS server (LAN address only) : name - storage1.server.com - 3. Ovirt node (from the node .iso) - I will set up Ovirt on an enternal; IP: name - node1.server.com In order to get the best speed (i.e by using LAN address's) I shall add the 2nd LAN interface on the node as a LAN address - (So it can comminicate with the storage node) .. Should I add the LAN address's of the ovirt node and storage on the frontend to /etc/hosts (i.e not the external IP - 10.0.0.x) ? Or will cause issues (like before) - I want it to send as much traffic via the LAN rather than external network (for speed) (also shall I add the frontend / storage to /etc/hosts on the node ?) Any ideas will be welcomed.

[Users] Can anyone help? Spice not connecting - I have spice-xpi installed.
by Morgan Cox 02 Mar '12

Hi I have been trying for hours to install a vm in Ovirt and having no joy., Spice is not working - I just get a black popup window I am connecting from a Fedora16 desktop - I have spice-XPI installed. can see 'press Shift+f12' to release mouse.... etc. My setup :- I have a 3 server setup - 1. Ovirt engine (Lan address + external address) - 2. Storage node - NFS server (LAN address and external address) - 3. Ovirt node (from the node .iso) - only LAN address The Engine server is a default FC16 install. the node is from the ovirt node .iso. I don't think its firewall related - I tried disabling firewalls on all servers. Once I try spice the icon is greyed out afterwards. In IRC it was suggested to run Bind from server 1 - I have done that and added DNS entrys in the LAN range for all 3 servers - all 3 servers are using bind from server1 as their only nameserver in resolv.conf I am trying to connect from my Fedora16 Desktop When I try to connect I see in /var/log/messages Mar 1 19:34:43 fedora16 spice: Warning: failed to connect: Connection timed out (110) Any ideas how to investigate this further. I am dying to test out a VM but with no spice I am presently unable to... Any ideas will be welcomed - i'm 1/2 thinking about re-installing with all external ips (but that will make transfer speeds slower..)
