[Users] VNC Console
by ml ml
Hello List,
i am running ovirt 3.3.3-2.el6. It looks really cool and nice.
However, the VNC Console drives me Crazy. I can seem to get a proper Key
Mapping.
My VNC Keyboard Layout is set to "en-us" and i am booting a live cd, also
with en-us key mapping.
However the keys such as / or = are not working and its driving me carzy
that i am failing on this simple task.
Can anyone help? What Client do you use in Mac and Windows?
Is there anything else i need to take care of?
Thanks,
Mario

Re: [Users] oVirt or RHEV ?
by Martijn Grendelman
Hi Dave (and everyone else who responded),
Thank you for your explanations. It was the objectiveness I was looking
for, even though you work for Red Hat :-) At least the benefits of RHEV
are way more clear to me now, which is what I needed.
The choice is still a tough one, expecially since the oVirt users
mailing list is one of most helpful ones I know.
Thanks again,
Martijn.

Hi René,
Sorry for top-posting, but I just wanted to say that this was a really
helpful answer, and it actually made me rethink yesterday's decision:-).
Thank you very much.
Cheers,
Martijn.

[Users] SPICE behind NAT
by Alan Murrell
I have setup a test All-In-One install but it is behind a Linux NAT
firewall (IPTables). I have been reading about Spice-Proxy and know the
basics of setting it up (install squid, configure the ovirt engine
SpiceProxyDefault), however I just wanted to know how I would do this in
a NAT situation? Would I install Squid on the firewall? When I
configure SpiceProxyDefault on the ovirt-engine, I set it to use the
internal IP of the firewall/Squid? Anything else I would possibly need
to do?

[Users] Constant lopping log of task activity
by Matt Warren
I'm seeing a constant loop of task issues in the vdsm.log
Host is a CentOS 6.5 server otherwise setup as a db lab server.
Engine is a CentOS 6.5 vm running on vmware esx host.
The host has local storage only. Not sure if related, but I've been trying
to attach a Win2k8-hosted NFS share for ISO's and failing. I can manually
mount it just fine from the host os, but the ovirt-engine complains of
privileges errors.
I also had trouble getting the host recognized in ovirt dues to a messed
up sudoers file. With that sorted, it added and report fine.
Any troubleshooting tips?

[Users] Will this two node concept scale and work?
by ml ml
Hello List,
my aim is to host multiple VMs which are redundant and are high available.
It should also scale well.
I think usually people just buy a fat iSCSI Storage and attach this. In my
case it should scale well from very small nodes to big ones.
Therefore an iSCSI Target will bring a lot of overhead (10GBit Links and
two Paths, and really i should have a 2nd Hot Standby SAN, too). This makes
scalability very hard.
This post is also not meant to be a iscsi discussion.
Since oVirt does not support DRBD out of the box i came up with my own
concept:
http://oi62.tinypic.com/2550xg5.jpg
As far as i can tell i have the following advantages:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
- i can start with two simple cheap nodes
- i could add more disks to my nodes. Maybe even a SSD as a dedicated
drbdresource.
- i can connect the two nodes directly to each other with bonding or
infiniband. i dont need a switch or something between it.
Downside:
---------------
- i always need two nodes (as a couple)
Will this setup work for me. So far i think i will be quite happy with it.
Since the DRBD Resources are shared in dual primary mode i am not sure if
ovirt can handle it. It is not allowed to write to a vm disk at the same
time.
The Concept of Linbit (
http://www.linbit.com/en/company/news/333-high-available-virtualization-a...)
seems to much of an overhead with the iSCSI Layer and pacemaker setup. Its
just too much for such a simple task.
Please tell me that this concept is great and will work and scale well.
Otherwise i am also thankful for any hints or critical ideas.
Thanks a lot,
Mario

Or not ;-)
Would it be possible (and doable) to migrate from oVirt to RHEV?
If we start out with oVirt, but after some time we decide that RHEV
would be a better fit after all, would it be possible to hook up
existing oVirt/VDSM hosts to a RHEV engine, or am I thinking way too
simple now?
Cheers,
Martijn.

Thank you, this is what I thought.
It's still a hard decision. If the stability and "testedness" of RHEL is
anything to go by, it's not reassuring at all (although it may be better
than Fedora, I don't know), although I must say that RedHat support is
helpful at times.
Thanks again, I think I know enough :-)
