Hosted Engine Restore Issues
by Alan G 10 May '19

10 May '19

Hi, Trying to re-deploy Hosted Engine into a new storage domain. "hosted-engine --deploy --noansible" has completed and the engine is up, but I cannot remove the existing hosted_storage domain to allow the new one to be imported. I cannot remove the domain until the old HostedEngine VM is removed, but I cannot remove that as it has Delete Protection enabled. Any attempt to remove delete protection errors with "There was an attempt to change Hosted Engine VM values that are locked". How is this process supposed to work? Thanks, Alan

OvfUpdateIntervalInMinutes restored to original value too early?
by Andreas Elvers 10 May '19

10 May '19

I'm having a problem with restore. It fails while "Wait for OVF_STORE disk content". Looking at the ansible output and at the bug report https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1644748 isn't the original value of 60 minutes for OvfUpdateIntervalInMinutes restored too early?

It's hard > enough for me to not break ovirt in crazy ways This has nothing to do with ovirt. You could use rdiff-backup on any running machine, be it virtual or bare metal. It's just a way to use a combination of diff and rsync to backup machines. Indeed, I was using it with my vmware-based systems and, when I migrated them to ovirt, the backups just continued working. > Get Outlook for Android -derek -- Derek Atkins 617-623-3745 derek(a)ihtfp.com www.ihtfp.com Computer and Internet Security Consultant

Re: oVirt and NetApp NFS storage
by Strahil 10 May '19

10 May '19

I know 2 approaches. 1. Use NFS hard mounting option - it will never give error to sanlock and it will be waiting until NFS is recovered (never tries this one, but in theory might work) 2. Change the default sanlock timeout (last time I tried that - it didn't work) . You might need help from Sandro or Sahina for that option.

Ansible oVirt.image-template role
by Jeremy Tourville 10 May '19

10 May '19

I am trying to run an Ansible playbook that doesn't appear to run correctly. I have followed the example from this blog - https://evaryont.me/blog/2018/09/getting-started-with-vagrant-and-ovirt-fro… The playbook finishes with an ok status but the template never gets built in Ovirt. I have taken logs from three locations hoping to spot the error: * [root@ansible ansible]#ansible-playbook -vvvv runsetup.yml * [root@ansible ansible]# less /var/log/ansible.log * [root@engine ~]# tail -f /var/log/messages (while the playbook is being run. The server Ansible is my control node and Engine is my managed host. Can anyone help me interpret the attached logs in an effort to further troubleshoot? Thanks!

I saw you are using gluster v5.3 . Any reason not to update to 5.5 ? It is quite more stable than 5.3 and some enhancements were done.

Re: Migrating Domain Storage Gluster
by Strahil 10 May '19

If this is replica 2 arbiter 1 (old name replica 3 arbiter 1) or a plain replica 3 volume - you don't need the downtime. Just stop the bricks on one of the nodes. Mount (and verify) those SSDs on the same location and use the gluster's reset brick option. Wait for the heal to complete and repeat with the other node(s).

Ovirt nodeNG RDMA support?
by michael＠wanderingmad.com 09 May '19

09 May '19

When I was able to load CentosOS as a host OS, Was able to use RDMA, but it seems like the 4.3x branch of nodeNG is missing RDMA support? I enabled rdma and started the service, but gluster refuses to recognize that RDMA is available and always reports RDMA port as 0 and when I try to make a new drive with tcp,rdma transport options, it always fails.

Need VM run once api

This is a multipart message in MIME format. --=_alternative 00361B2065257E90_= Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Hi Experts, We are integrating ovirt with our internal cloud. Here we installed cloudinit in vm and then converted vm to template. We deploy template with initial run parameter Hostname, IP Address, Gateway and DNS. but when we power ON initial, run parameter is not getting pushed to inside the vm. But its working when we power on VM using run once option on Ovirt portal. I believe we need to power ON vm using run once API, but we are not able get this API. Can some one help on this. I got reply on this query last time but unfortunately mail got deleted.
