Network question: mirrored port?
by Chris Adams
I have a couple of traffic-monitoring servers that get a copy of all
traffic on a VLAN via a mirrored port on the switch, connected to a
dedicated port on each server. Is there a good way to run that type of
traffic into a VM?

Is there any limit/performance considerations to keeping a disk snapshot fo=

info about ovirtmgmt bridge config in master
by Gianluca Cecchi
Hello,
I'm configuring an all-in-one environment in a Qemu-KVM VM with CentOS 6.5
using nested virtualization.
All seems ok except the hypervisor part that goes in timeout during setup
and after reboot remains in "Unassigned" state.
I notice that under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts directory I don't have
the ifcfg-ovirtmgmt file but only the old ifcfg-eth0 and in fact I only
have bridge
[root@ovirtita ~]# brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
;vdsmdummy; 8000.000000000000 no
Ha anything changed for master and ovirtmgmt network or does this mean that
during setup something has gone wrong and that I can try to manually create
ovirtmgmt bridge config...?
If this can interfer, in my case I don't have dns set up but only entry in
/etc/hosts.
With previous versions and this one I got a warning but previously this
didn't compromise hypervisor part in all-in-one environments..

Ovirt and Fedora 20
by Jamie Bohr
I followed the instructions on
http://www.ovirt.org/Quick_Start_Guide#Install_oVirt_Engine_.28Fedora_.2F...
for installing ovirt on a Fedora 20 instance. I
expanded jboss-as-web-7.0.2.Final into /opt/jboss-as-web-7.0.2.Final and
ran "engine-setup --jboss-home=/opt/jboss-as-web-7.0.2.Final".
Everything appeared fine however the web interface will not start, the
following appear in the console.log file:
Could not load Logmanager "org.jboss.logmanager"
I looked for that error in reference to ovirt but did not find anything
relevant, hoping someone on this list can point me in the right direction.
Sorry if this was double posted, it was not in my sent item and it was late
yesterday when I thought I sent it.

Not sure why kernel issued above error but looks like the cause of

VM Snapshot Problem
by Punit Dambiwal
Hi All,
I am facing one strange problem with the snapshot of the VM...let me
explain ....
I have one vm called “vm1” & i have created the following snapshots :-
1) 2014-08-20 First Snapshot
2) 2014-08-21 Second Snapshot
3) 2014-08-22 Third Snapshot
Now if i try to restore the VM(means commit) with Third Snapshot...other
two snapshots will exists..
But if I restore the VM with First Snapshot...VM will restore successfully
but it destroy the other 2 snapshosts (Second Snapshot & Third Snapshot)..that
means both the other snapshots will be disappear....
Please let me know is this the limitation of Ovirt or it's any setting
problem...
Thank you.
