by Lev Veyde
oVirt 4.4.6 Sixth Release Candidate is now available for testing
The oVirt Project is pleased to announce the availability of oVirt 4.4.6
Sixth Release Candidate for testing, as of April 29th, 2021.
This update is the sixth in a series of stabilization updates to the 4.4
series.
How to prevent hosts entering emergency mode after upgrade from oVirt 4.4.1
Note: Upgrading from 4.4.2 GA or later should not require re-doing these
steps, if already performed while upgrading from 4.4.1 to 4.4.2 GA. These
are only required to be done once.
Due to Bug 1837864 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1837864> -
Host enter emergency mode after upgrading to latest build
If you have your root file system on a multipath device on your hosts you
should be aware that after upgrading from 4.4.1 to 4.4.6 you may get your
host entering emergency mode.
In order to prevent this be sure to upgrade oVirt Engine first, then on
your hosts:
1.
Remove the current lvm filter while still on 4.4.1, or in emergency mode
(if rebooted).
2.
Reboot.
3.
Upgrade to 4.4.6 (redeploy in case of already being on 4.4.6).
4.
Run vdsm-tool config-lvm-filter to confirm there is a new filter in
place.
5.
Only if not using oVirt Node:
- run "dracut --force --add multipath” to rebuild initramfs with the
correct filter configuration
6.
Reboot.

Unable to provide network acces to second cluster in DC
by Miguel Garcia
I have created the following DC and cluster structure in my ovirt server
- Data Center Public
- - cluster-public1
- - cluster-public2
Also created a couple Logical Network for DC-Public
- - prodvlan
- - havlan
And added 4 host (two for each cluster because processor type) and each host has ports added to both logical networks (besides ovirtmgmt)
When I create a new vm in cluster public1 and add nics I'm able to list prodvlan and havlan but when I try to create the vm for cluster public2 no logical networks are listed.
Any idea how to get logical networks listed for cluster public2?
Thanks in advance

Restoring hosted engine from backup fails on new FC storage domain creation
by Juhani Rautiainen
Hi!
I started the upgrade from 4.3->4.4. Now I'm stuck as restoring the
backup fails to create the correct storage domain for Hosted Engine.
How can I create one? Error from ansible task is:
[ ERROR ] ovirtsdk4.Error: Fault reason is "Operation Failed". Fault
detail is "[Domain format is different from master storage domain
format]". HTTP response code is 400.
[ ERROR ] fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg":
"Fault reason is \"Operation Failed\". Fault detail is \"[Domain
format is different from master storage domain format]\". HTTP
response code is 400."}
And from UI I can see that what has been created is a data domain. Not
data (master) domain as old one was. Now I'm stuck here. This is a
fibre channel system where I'm trying to do this if it is relevant.
What I could find from the logs is this:

prevent creation of another master. No luck with that.

Import VM with Xen Based in Ovirt
by hemaa＠emiratesnbd.com
Hi All,
I am trying to migrate a VM from a Xen Based virtualization to Ovirt with the import option in GUI
But I am not able to list any stopped VMs on the Xen host. So what I did is I started the VM and got it listed. Then selected the VM and moved to right hand section. Clicked on next button. But then it gave an error
"All chosen VMs couldn't be retrieved by the external system and therefore have been filtered. Please see log for details."
When I check the libvirt logs in xen hypervisor I see error as below. There is no other errors in engine logs or vdsm logs
2021-04-22 08:52:36.796+0000: 30219: error : do_connect:116 : internal error: failed to connect to xend
2021-04-22 08:52:36.830+0000: 30219: error : virNodeSuspendSupportsTarget:332 : internal error: Cannot probe for supported suspend types
2021-04-22 08:52:36.830+0000: 30219: warning : xenHypervisorMakeCapabilities:2550 : Failed to get host power management capabilities
2021-04-22 08:52:36.832+0000: 30220: error : virConnectListAllDomains:6803 : this function is not supported by the connection driver: virConnectListAllDomains
This is the same error I got when I tried importing a running VM as well. Any idea on what could be a possible reason behind this?

Faild ovirt-websocket-proxy.
by jesado74＠gmail.com
Hello again.
After getting the hosted-engine vm back, now I have the following problem. I can't use the graphic console. The websocket-proy fails me. Surely when I update the certificates I have missed some intermediate step, but I do not know how to follow.
Anyone know of a link to follow the certificate change procedure in the websocket-proxy service.
Thank you.
PS: Here I leave the output of the service:

Brick didn't come up after planned Poweroutage
by Marcel d'Heureuse
Hi Guys,
We hat a planned power outage and we have stopped all VMS and try to keep
the servers alive as long as possible.
Some Servers made a Reboot by itself but the IPMI interface was not
reachable for the engine. The some hosts have made a restart.
Now all systems running and all 180 VMs too. But one Brick of the hosted
engine didn't come up.
Did you have an idea. Please find attached some screenshots.
Our Hosted Engine has 6 bricks on 6 different Servers.
A restart of the Host didn't work. The Server Restart of glusterd didn't
work.
I hope you have some more Ideas?
Thanks
