Engine crash, storage won't activate, hosts won't shutdown, template locked, gpu passthrough failed
by M R 09 Oct '17

09 Oct '17

Hello! I have been using Ovirt for last four weeks, testing and trying to get things working. I have collected here the problems I have found and this might be a bit long but help to any of these or maybe to all of them from several people would be wonderful. My version is ovirt node 4.1.5 and 4.1.6 downloaded from website latest stable release at the time. Also tested with CentOS minimal +ovirt repo. In this case, 3. is solved, but other problems persist. 1. Power off host First day after installing ovirt node, it was able to reboot and shutdown clean. No problems at all. After few days of using ovir, I have noticed that hosts are unable to shutdown. I have tested this in several different ways and come to the following conclusion. IF engine has not been started after boot, all hosts are able to shutdown clean. But if engine is started even once, none of the hosts are able to shutdown anymore. The only way to get power off is to unplug or press power button for a longer time as hard reset. I have failed to find a way to have the engine running and then shutdown host. This effects to all hosts in the cluster. 2. Glusterfs failed Every time I have booted hosts, glusterfs has failed. For some reason, it turns inactive state even if I have setup systemctl enable glusterd. Before this command it was just inactive. After this command, it will say "failed (inactive). There is still a way to get glusterfs working. I have to give command systemctl start glusterd manually and everything starts working. Why do I have to give manual commands to start glusterfs? I have used this for CentOS before and never had this problem before. Node installer is that much different from the CentOS core? 3. Epel As I said that I have used CentOS before, I would like to able to install some packets from repo. But even if I install epel-release, it won't find packets such as nano or htop. I have read about how to add epel-release to ovirt node from here: https://www.ovirt.org/release/4.1.1/#epel I have tested even manually edit repolist, but it will fail to find normal epel packets. I have setup additional exclude=collectd* as guided in the link above. This doesn't make any difference. All being said I am able to install manually packets which are downloaded with other CentOS machine and transferred with scp to ovirt node. Still, this once again needs a lot of manual input and is just a workaround for the bug. 4. Engine startup When I try to start the engine when glusterfs is up, it will say vm doesn't exist, starting up. Still, it won't startup automatically. I have to give several times command hosted-engine --vm-start. I wait for about 5minutes until I give it next time. This will take usually about 30minutes and then randomly. Completely randomly after one of the times, I give this command engine shoots up and is up in 1minute. This has happened every time I boot up. And the times that I have to give a command to start the engine, has been changing. At best it's been 3rd time at worst it has been 7th time. Calculating from there it might take from 15minutes to 35minutes to get the engine up.Nevertheless, it will eventually come up every time. If there is a way to get it up on the first try or even better, automatically up, it would be great. 5. Activate storage Once the engine is up, there has been a problem with storage. When I go to storage tab, it will show all sources red. Even if I wait for 15~20minutes, it won't get storage green itself. I have to go and press active button from main data storage. Then it will get main storage up in 2~3munutes.Sometimes it fails it once, but will definitely get main data storage up on the seconds try. And then magically at the same time all other storages instantly go green. Main storage is glusterfs and I have 3 NFS storages as well. This is only a problem when starting up and once storages are on green they stay green. Still annoying that it cannot get it done by itself. 6.Template locked I try to create a template from existing VM and it resulted in original VM going into locked state and template being locked. I have read that some other people had a similar problem and they were suggested to restart engine to see if it solves it. For me it has been now a week and several restarts of engine and hosts, but there is still one VM locked and template locked as well. This is not a big problem, but still a problem. Everything is grey and cannot delete this bugged VM or template. 7. unable to use GPU I have been trying to do GPU passthrough with my VM. First, there was a problem with qemu cmd line, but once I figure out a way to get commands, it maybe is working(?). Log shows up fine, but it still doesn't give functionality I¨m looking for. As I mentioned in the other email that I have found this: https://www.mail-archive.com/users@ovirt.org/msg40422.html . It will give right syntax in log, but still, won't fix error 43 with nvidia drivers. If anybody got this working or has ideas how to do it, would really like to know how it's done properly. I have also tested with AMD graphics cards such as vega, but as soon as drivers have installed, I will get a black screen. Even if I restart VM or hosts or both. I will only see black screen and unable to use VM at all. I might be able to live with the other six things listed above, but this one is a bit of a problem for me. My use of VMs will eventually need graphical performance and therefore I will have to get this working or find an alternative to ovirt..I have found several things that I really like in ovirt and would prefer to use it.

VM remote noVNC console
by Alex K 06 Oct '17

06 Oct '17

Hi all, I am trying to get the VM console of a VM through SSH socks proxy. This is a scenario I will frequently face, as the ovirt cluster will be available only though a remote SSH tunnel. I am trying several console options without success. With SPICE or VNC I get issue with virt-viewer saying "Unable to connect to libvirt with URI [none]' With noVNC I get a separate tab on browser where it is stuck showing "loading". Has anyone success with this kind of remote console access? Thanx, Alex

LVM structure

Hello, I'm still coping with my qemu image corruption, and I'm following some Redhat guidelines that explains the way to go : - Start the VM - Identify the host - On this host, run the ps command to identify the disk image location : # ps ax|grep qemu-kvm|grep vm_name - Look for "-drive file=/rhev/data-center/00000001-0001-0001-0001-00000000033e/b72773dc-c99c-472a-9548-503c122baa0b/images/91bfb2b4-5194-4ab3-90c8-3c172959f712/e7174214-3c2b-4353-98fd-2e504de72c75" (YMMV) - Resolve this symbolic link # ls -la /rhev/data-center/00000001-0001-0001-0001-00000000033e/b72773dc-c99c-472a-9548-503c122baa0b/images/91bfb2b4-5194-4ab3-90c8-3c172959f712/e7174214-3c2b-4353-98fd-2e504de72c75 lrwxrwxrwx 1 vdsm kvm 78 3 oct. 2016 /rhev/data-center/00000001-0001-0001-0001-00000000033e/b72773dc-c99c-472a-9548-503c122baa0b/images/91bfb2b4-5194-4ab3-90c8-3c172959f712/e7174214-3c2b-4353-98fd-2e504de72c75 -> /dev/b72773dc-c99c-472a-9548-503c122baa0b/e7174214-3c2b-4353-98fd-2e504de72c75 - Shutdown the VM - On the SPM, activate the logical volume : # lvchange -ay /dev/b72773dc-c99c-472a-9548-503c122baa0b/e7174214-3c2b-4353-98fd-2e504de72c75 - Verify the state of the qemu image : # qemu-img check /dev/b72773dc-c99c-472a-9548-503c122baa0b/e7174214-3c2b-4353-98fd-2e504de72c75 - If needed, attempt a repair : # qemu-img check -r all /dev/... - In any case, deactivate the LV : # lvchange -an /dev/... I followed this steps tens of times, and finding the LV and activating it was obvious and successful. Since yesterday, I'm finding some VMs one which these steps are not working : I can identify the symbolic link, but the SPM neither the host are able to find the LV device, thus can not LV-activate it : # lvchange -ay /dev/de2fdaa0-6e09-4dd2-beeb-1812318eb893/ce13d349-151e-4631-b600-c42b82106a8d Failed to find logical volume "de2fdaa0-6e09-4dd2-beeb-1812318eb893/ce13d349-151e-4631-b600-c42b82106a8d" Either I need two more coffees, either I may be missing a step or something to check. Looking at the SPM /dev/disk/* structure, it looks like very sound (I can see my three storage domains dm-name-* series of links). As the VM can nicely be ran and stopped, does the host activates something more before being launched? -- Nicolas ECARNOT

Hi, I've done all the recommendations in this thread, and I'm still getting the "Paused by System" message just after the transfer starts. Honestly I don't know were else to look at, cause I don't find any log entry or packet capture that give me a hint about what is happening. I'll appreciate any help! Thank you in advance!

It seems to working fine, but I have some question about it. - I would like to make an own cluster and datacenter. Is it possible to remove a host and re-add to an another cluster while it is running the hosted engine? - Is it possible to remove default datacenter without any problems? - I have a productive ovirt cluter that is based on 3.5 series. It is using a shared nfs storage. Is it possible to migrate VMs from 3.5 to 4.1 with detach shared storage from the old cluster and attach it to the new cluster? - If yes what will happend with the VM properies? For example mac addresses, limits, etc. Those will be migrated or not?

Guess no one wants to stick around late on a Friday night. :-D I'm an ovirt newb here. I've been going through the docs setting up 4.1 on Scientific Linux 7.4. For the most part everything is going well once I learn how to do it. I'm, however, stuck on power management. I have multiple networks: 192.168.1.x is my BMC/ilo network. The security team wants as few entry points into this as possible and wants as much segregation as possible. 192.168.2.x is my "management" access network. For my other machines on this network this means admin-SSH/rsyslog/SaltStack configuration management/ect. 192.168.3.x is my high speed network where my NFS storage sits and applications that need the bandwidth do their thing. 10.10.86.x is my "public" access All networks are configured on the Host network settings. Mostly confident I got it right...at least each network/IP matches the right interface. ;-) Right now I only have the engine server and one hyper-visor. On either host I can ssh into the command line and run fence_ipmilan -a 192.168.1.x -l USER -p PASS -o status -v -P" it works, all is good. However, when I try to add it in the ovirt interface I get an error. :-/ Edit Host -> Power Management: Address: 192.168.1.14 User Name: root Password: SorryCantTellYou Type: ipmilan Options: <blank> Test Test failed: Failed to run fence status-check on host '192.168.2.14'.

Hello, Today I updated my ovirt engine v3.5 and all my hosts on one datacenter (centos 7.4 ones). and suddenly my vdsm and vdsm-network services stopped working. btw: My other DC is centos 6 based (managed from the same ovirt engine), everything works just fine there. vdsm fails dependent on vdsm-network service, with lots of RPC error.

Currenty everything is down. I am ok to install a new ovirt engine if somehow I can restore my virtual servers. I can also split centos 6 and centos 7 ovirt engine's.

iSCSI VLAN host connections - bond or multipath & IPv6
by Ben Bradley 01 Oct '17

01 Oct '17

Hi All I'm looking to add a new host to my oVirt lab installation. I'm going to share out some LVs from a separate box over iSCSI and will hook the new host up to that. I have 2 NICs on the storage host and 2 NICs on the new Ovirt host to dedicate to the iSCSI traffic. I also have 2 separate switches so I'm looking for redundancy here. Both iSCSI host and oVirt host plugged into both switches. If this was non-iSCSI traffic and without oVirt I would create bonded interfaces in active-backup mode and layer the VLANs on top of that. But for iSCSI traffic without oVirt involved I wouldn't bother with a bond and just use multipath. From scanning the oVirt docs it looks like there is an option to have oVirt configure iSCSI multipathing. So what's the best/most-supported option for oVirt? Manually create active-backup bonds so oVirt just sees a single storage link between host and storage? Or leave them as separate interfaces on each side and use oVirt's multipath/bonding? Also I quite like the idea of using IPv6 for the iSCSI VLAN, purely down to the fact I could use link-local addressing and not have to worry about setting up static IPv4 addresses or DHCP. Is IPv6 iSCSI supported by oVirt? Thanks, Ben

Re: [ovirt-users] 4.2 downgrade

What's my chances/best way if possible to roll back to 4.0 (or 4.1 for that matter). There is no roll back to oVirt installation. That being said, I believe the Alpha quality is good. It is not feature complete and we of course have more polishing to do, but it's very usable and we will continue to ship updates to it. Let us know promptly what issues you encounter.
