oVirt + TrueNAS: Unable to create iSCSI domain - I am missing something obvious
by David Johnson 20 Jan '23

20 Jan '23

Good morning folks, and thank you in advance. I am working on migrating my oVirt backing store from NFS to iSCSI. *oVirt Environment:* oVirt Open Virtualization Manager Software Version:4.4.4.7-1.el8 *TrueNAS environment:* FreeBSD truenas.local 12.2-RELEASE-p11 75566f060d4(HEAD) TRUENAS amd64 The iSCSI share is on a TrueNAS server, exposed to user VDSM and group 36. oVirt sees the targeted share, but is unable to make use of it. The latest issue is "Error while executing action New SAN Storage Domain: Volume Group block size error, please check your Volume Group configuration, Supported block size is 512 bytes." As near as I can tell, oVirt does not support any block size other than 512 bytes, while TrueNAS's smallest OOB block size is 4k. I know that oVirt on TrueNAS is a common configuration, so I expect I am missing something really obvious here, probably a TrueNAS configuration needed to make TrueNAS work with 512 byte blocks. Any advice would be helpful. *David Johnson*

hi, i have standalone ovirt-engine 4.4.4 (centos8 stream) few hosts (mix of old centos 8.2, centos 8 stream, rocky linux) can you confirm if this upgrade path is ok? first round - update engine to 4.4.10 - update OS on engine to last centos 8 stream (can i upgrade to some point in time recommended for 4.4.10?) - update hosts to ovirt 4.4.10 - update OS on hosts to last centos 8 stream and rocky linux 8.6 special case in first round - centos 8.2 - migrate OS on hosts from centos 8.2 to rocky linux 8.6 - update hosts to ovirt 4.4.10 second round - update engine to 4.5.4 - update hosts to ovirt 4.5.4 - update OS on hosts - centos 8 stream - is ALREADY on last update from first round - update OS on hosts - rocky linux - from 8.6 to 8.7 Marek

noVNC console error : Something went wrong, connection is closed
by dvx.mellin＠gmail.com 03 Jan '23

Hello everyone, Context : oVirt 4.4.9.3-1.el8 glusterfs 8.6 Self-hosted engine Problem: Since I update my certificates (with engine-setup) because of the warning that my certs will expire soon, I can't open the noVNC console anymore. In the logs on engine, I have these : in /var/log/messages : ovsdb-server[510110]: ovs|04628|jsonrpc|WARN|ssl:[::ffff:<ip_node_1>]:51214: receive error: Protocol error ovsdb-server[510110]: ovs|04629|reconnect|WARN|ssl:[::ffff:<ip_node_1>]:51214: connection dropped (Protocol error) journal[516217]: 2022-12-21 11:31:27,800+0100 ovirt-websocket-proxy: INFO msg:871 handler exception: [SSL: SSLV3_ALERT_CERTIFICATE_UNKNOWN] sslv3 alert certificate unknown (_ssl.c:897) ovirt-websocket-proxy.py[509812]: ovirt-websocket-proxy[516217] INFO msg:871 handler exception: [SSL: SSLV3_ALERT_CERTIFICATE_UNKNOWN] sslv3 alert certificate unknown (_ssl.c:897) ovsdb-server[510110]: ovs|04632|stream_ssl|WARN|SSL_accept: error:1417C086:SSL routines:tls_process_client_certificate:certificate verify failed in /var/log/openvswitch/ovsdb-server-sb.log : 2022-12-21T10:31:22.540Z|04626|stream_ssl|WARN|SSL_accept: error:1417C086:SSL routines:tls_process_client_certificate:certificate verify failed 2022-12-21T10:31:22.541Z|04627|jsonrpc|WARN|Dropped 1 log messages in last 8 seconds (most recently, 8 seconds ago) due to excessive rate 2022-12-21T10:31:22.541Z|04628|jsonrpc|WARN|ssl:[::ffff:<ip_node_1>]:51214: receive error: Protocol error 2022-12-21T10:31:22.542Z|04629|reconnect|WARN|ssl:[::ffff:<ip_node_1>]:51214: connection dropped (Protocol error) I've tried these commands (found here : https://access.redhat.com/solutions/6877501) : /usr/share/ovirt-engine/bin/pki-enroll-pkcs12.sh --name="ovirt-provider-ovn" --password=mypass --subject="<subject_engine>" --keep-key /usr/share/ovirt-engine/bin/pki-enroll-pkcs12.sh --name="ovn-ndb" --password=mypass --subject="<subject_engine>" --keep-key /usr/share/ovirt-engine/bin/pki-enroll-pkcs12.sh --name="ovn-sdb" --password=mypass --subject="<subject_engine>" --keep-key systemctl restart ovirt-provider-ovn.service systemctl restart ovn-northd.service Still not work, so I've seen that some certificates was still not renewed : /usr/share/ovirt-engine/bin/pki-enroll-pkcs12.sh --name="vmconsole-proxy-helper" --password=mypass --subject="<subject_engine>" --keep-key /usr/share/ovirt-engine/bin/pki-enroll-pkcs12.sh --name="vmconsole-proxy-host" --password=mypass --subject="<subject_engine>" --keep-key /usr/share/ovirt-engine/bin/pki-enroll-pkcs12.sh --name="vmconsole-proxy-user" --password=mypass --subject="<subject_engine>" --keep-key And restart every ovirt services. But it still does not work better. I don't see any other unvalid certificates in /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/, so I don't know which certificate is invalid for ovsdb. Thanks for any advice. Best regards, Michael

Re: Expand the disk space of the hosting engine
by ziyi Liu 03 Jan '23

Thank you very much, I know the operation steps, but there is still one point that I don’t quite understand, fdisk -l only shows 50G, the actual disk allocation has 100G, how can I display the remaining 50G. The second question is that if the allocated 100G is also full, how should I expand it? I can’t expand it using wei ui

Hi guys. So... the problem is that we can't extend the virtual disk on oVirt... "*Cannot edit Virtual Disk. The operation is not supported for HOSTED_ENGINE disks.*" In my case I also created a 100GB Domain Storage, but the disk is only 58GB and I can't increase it...

Split hosts in a new engine - oVirt 4.4.5
by francesco＠shellrent.com 30 Dec '22

30 Dec '22

Hello everyone! We have less than 500 hosts and ~800 vms handled by our engine and we could benefit from deploy another engine for splitting the workload (in ex.:we perform daily and weekly backup via python script, scheduled snapshot (dell+add). Is there any way for migrating/moving a host from an engine to a new one (same version, ofc)? I thought about export a backup and then import but then I'll have to "select" whihch host to import and remove all the structure (DC/cluster/host/storoge) from the old one... a bit tricky and dangerous, in my opinion. Anyone that has already done this? Thank you for your time and happy holidays! Francesco

Now my hosting engine /var directory is full, and the 15G free space is fully occupied. When creating the hosting engine, I use 100G, but actually only use 50G. What can I do to make /var bigger? disk expansion

USB Redirection - Auto choose devices
by jamie.briscoe＠johnstonnc.com 28 Dec '22

28 Dec '22

Is there a way to auto choose which devices get redirected the the guest? I have a Windows 2022 VM and I can connect to is using the VM portal and Spice (virt-viewer) and it opens fullscreen perfectly. Perfect VDI solution... Except the fact that I have to click in the top menu and choose my usb devices every time I connect to the vm... I need it to save my selections... Any way to do this?

Network Address Change
by Paul.LKW 28 Dec '22

28 Dec '22

Hi All: I just has a case, I need to change the oVirt host and engine IP address due to data center decommission I checked in the hosted-engine host there are some files I could change ; in ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf ca_subject="O=simple.com, CN=1.2.3.4" gateway=1.2.3.254 and of course I need to change the ovirtmgmt interface IP too, I think just change the above line could do the tick, but where could I change the other host IP in the cluster ? I think I have to be lost all the host as once changed the hosted-engine host IP as it is in diff. sub net. Does there any command line tools could do that or someone has such experience could share? Best Regards, Paul.LKW
