How to list all snapshots?
by jorgevisentini＠gmail.com 14 Feb '25

14 Feb '25

Hello everyone! First, I would like to thank everyone involved in this wonderful project. I leave here my sincere thanks! Does anyone know if it is possible to list all snapshots automatically? It can be by ansible, python, shell... any way that helps to list them all without having to enter Domain by Domain. Thank you all!

snapshot solution: Existing snapshots that were taken after this one will be erased.
by dhanaraj.ramesh＠yahoo.com 29 Jan '25

29 Jan '25

Hi Team, when I want to commit the older snapshots I'm getting warning stating " Existing snapshots that were taken after this one will be erased.". is there any way we can retain the latest snapshots as is in the chain? I knew cloning and template export options are there to secure that latest snapshot data but these are will consume additional space in storage and take time.

Restart oVirt-Engine
by Jeremey Wise 09 Jan '25

09 Jan '25

How ,without reboot of hosting system, do I restart the oVirt engine? # I tried below but do not seem to effect the virtual machine [root@thor iso]# systemctl restart ov ovirt-ha-agent.service ovirt-imageio.service ovn-controller.service ovs-delete-transient-ports.service ovirt-ha-broker.service ovirt-vmconsole-host-sshd.service ovsdb-server.service ovs-vswitchd.service [root@thor iso]# # You cannot restart the VM " HostedEngine " as it responses: Error while executing action: HostedEngine: - Cannot restart VM. This VM is not managed by the engine. Reason is I had to do some work on a node. Reboot it.. it is back up.. network is all fine.. Cockpit working fine... and gluster fine.. But oVirt-Engine refuses to accept the node is up. -- p <jeremey.wise(a)gmail.com>enguinpages

Host deploy failure: Configure OVN for oVirt
by stephan.badenhorst＠fnb.co.za 05 Jan '25

05 Jan '25

Good day, I am running into a problem during host deploy via the oVirt engine GUI since upgrading to ovirt-engine-4.5.5-1.el8. The "Configure OVN for oVirt" task seem to fail when trying to run the vdsm-tool ovn-config command. Host deploy used to work fine when the engine was on version 4.5.4. Anyone that can guide me on the right path to get past this issue? Does not seem to be a new problem - https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/IDLGSBQFX35EHH… Log extract: 2024-02-01 14:48:19 SAST - TASK [ovirt-provider-ovn-driver : Configure OVN for oVirt] ********************* . . .

Uploading .iso image with REST API creates <id>.meta with wrong DISKTYPE value
by markul11＠protonmail.com 12 Dec '24

12 Dec '24

When creating file (.iso image) with the web GUI the .meta file has DISKTYPE=ISOF, but when using REST, DISKTYPE=DATA and the file is not listed on the "Attach CD" drop down when creating a new vm. Using API is the only way for me cos I can't find a fix to a connection problem from Firefox/Fedora 39 to the web GUI, so all transfers end up as "suspended by the system". I am using the following POST to crate the file: curl -k -u "admin@internal:secretpw" -X POST \ -H "Content-Type: application/xml" \ -d '<disk><name>Rocky-9-latest-x86_64-boot.iso</name><alias>Rocky-9-latest-x86_64-boot.iso</alias>\ <description>Rocky-9-latest-x86_64-boot.iso</description>\ <provisioned_size>1068498944</provisioned_size><format>raw</format>\ <storage_domains><storage_domain><name>isos</name>\ </storage_domain></storage_domains></disk>' \ https://ovirtsvc.adm.cnt.uksw.edu.pl/ovirt-engine/api/disks The resulting <id>.meta is: CAP=1068498944 CTIME=1732282300 DESCRIPTION={"DiskAlias":"Rocky-9-latest-x86_64-boot.iso","DiskDescription":"Rocky-9-latest-x86_64-boot.iso"} DISKTYPE=DATA [...] FORMAT=RAW [...]TYPE=SPARSE VOLTYPE=LEAF EOF

Unable to access ovirt Admin Screen from ovirt Host
by louisb＠ameritech.net 07 Dec '24

07 Dec '24

I've reinstalled ovirt 4.4 on my server remotely via cockpit terminal. I'm able to access the ovirt admin screen remotely from the laptop that I used for the install. However, using the same URL I'm unable to gain access to the admin screen. Following the instruction in the documentation I've modified the file: /etc/ovirt-engine/engine.conf.d/99-custom-sso-setup.conf, to reflect the DNS name and I enter in the IP address. But I'm still unable to access the screen from the server console. What else needs to change in order to gain access from the server console? Thanks

oVirt slow backups from ISCSI storage domain to nfs target
by Don Dupuis 29 Nov '24

29 Nov '24

Hi I am using oVirt 4.4.10.7 with vms on iscsi Lenovo DE-6600F(nvme interfaced ssds). Backing up thin vms performance is fine, but with preallocated disks, backups to nfs storage with 200Gb interface is only transferring qcow2 image to nfs at 140MiB per sec. Why is qemu-nbd so slow with preallocated images? Does anyone have any issues related to this? Any help would be appreciated. I have made iscsid.conf changes, linux kernel boot changes, and still the same performance. Thanks Don

Yes, I added the certificate generated from this link: https://engine_address/ovirt-engine/services/pki-resource?resource=ca-certi… to the browser, and one generated from GUI during connection test (i can click the link there and a certificate will be generated - but it's exactly the same certificate). I tested on Chrome and Firefox.

oVirt: Migration recommendation to move from CentOS Stream 8 to 9
by dadamysus＠proton.me 27 Nov '24

27 Nov '24

I have inherited the admin duty to maintain a a small oVirt cluster featuring 2 nodes running oVirt 4.5.4 based on the CentOS Stream (using the official Node ISOs) running on physical machines, including a hosted engine. Sadly, the documentation is a bit on the "light side" and the official oVirt documentation can be overwhelming at times. As CentOS Stream 8 is no longer supported we would like to migrate the nodes to either CentOS Stream 9 using the NG node ISOs or to Rocky Linux 9 - but I guess using the official ISOs seems like the smoothest path. Still, I would like to know what the general steps are to migrate without setting up a entirely fresh cluster. Is it possible to migrate by setting up an CentOS Stream 9 node in the existing cluster and to deploy a new engine from there? Is it possible to migrate VMs without downtime in this process? Ideally, does anyone have some kind of step-by-step guide to get from CentOS Stream 8 to 9 using the oVirt Node ISOs? Or is it possible to upgrade the existing nodes to CentOS Stream 9 and deploy a new hosted engine from there without creating an entirely new node? And yeah, I have already searched this list for answers (https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/BE5BS4MJSJ4F4M…) but that thread lacks some the mentioned details.

Engine loosing VM contact and forcing reboot
by Kalil de A. Carvalho 23 Nov '24

23 Nov '24

Hello all. We are having a problem with some VM's Ubuntu 22.04, that oVirt engine loses contact with the VM and rebooting it. What is strange is that it happens just to a group of machines. We received this message when one vm is rebooted: VM SRV-01 was configured with 102092MiB of memory while the recommended value range is 64MiB - 65536MiB In our cluster we have enough memory per host but we already found out this other message: failed to set up stack guard page: Cannot allocate memory We already put the memory size and guarantee memory with the same value. We tried to look after any log but nothing helped give us a ideia what was going on. The unique thing that we thought is that VM's are using UEFI but we do not know it can cause this situation. Any of you already passed through this situation? -- Atenciosamente, Kalil de A. Carvalho

SPM and Task error ...
by Enrico 22 Nov '24

22 Nov '24

Hi all, my ovirt cluster has got 3 Hypervisors runnig Centos 7.5.1804 vdsm is 4.20.39.1-1.el7, ovirt engine is 4.2.4.5-1.el7, the storage systems are HP MSA P2000 and 2050 (fibre channel). I need to stop one of the hypervisors for maintenance but this system is the storage pool manager. For this reason I decided to manually activate SPM in one of the other nodes but this operation is not successful.

dmi identify

21 Nov '24

I’m in the process of switching from oVirt 4.3 to 4.5. VM runring on old hosts are returned as : $ sudo dmidecode -t 1 # dmidecode 3.5 Getting SMBIOS data from sysfs. SMBIOS 2.8 present. Handle 0x0100, DMI type 1, 27 bytes System Information Manufacturer: oVirt Product Name: oVirt Node Version: 7-9.2009.1.el7.centos Serial Number: 31333138-3839-5a43-3238-3438304b4646 UUID: 2a9280d3-ba1c-438e-bd49-186cd470a188 Wake-up Type: Power Switch SKU Number: Not Specified Family: Red Hat Enterprise Linux But when running on new hosts, they are identified as $ sudo dmidecode -t 1 # dmidecode 3.5 Getting SMBIOS data from sysfs.

I think that’s quite annoying as I have lot of tools that check the value 'oVirt Node', is that configurable ? Product Name being RHEL is not a very useful information as it’s not expected to run on anything else.

Host has status "NonResponse"
by p0ntorez1g＠gmail.com 18 Nov '24

18 Nov '24

Hi all, one of my hosts got a “NonResponsive” status. While a virtual machine was migrated there. In fact, there is no machine on the host. I have reinstalled host completely, but can't remove it from the engine. Can you tell me if it is possible to remove the record about this host from the engine? And reconnect a clean host. Thank you very much

oVirt CLI tool for automation tasks
by munnadawood＠gmail.com 15 Nov '24

15 Nov '24

We recently migrated from VMware to oVirt. I am looking for any CLI tool well suited for my automation tasks like VM create, clone, migrate 100s of Virtual machines in oVirt cluster. with VMware I was using govc (vSphere CLI built on top of govmomi). Another option I read is powercli, quite unsure if it works with oVirt. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thanks!

hci, glusterfs, glusterfs mount shows old size after expanding volume (adding brick)
by Jiří Sléžka 12 Nov '24

Hello, I have 3 node HCI cluster (Rocky Linux 8, 4.5.7-0.master.20240415165511.git7238a3766d.el8). I had 2 SSD in each node, each as separate brick. Recently I added third SSD and expanded volume to 3 x 3 topology.

Ceph-only storage for self-hosted engine
by Michael Thomas 11 Nov '24

11 Nov '24

I found this thread from last year that indicates it should be possible to use ceph rbd for the self-hosted engine: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/4VG4AWPQ2FBYEU… In my new hosted-engine deployment, the hosted-engine --deploy menu only shows me options for: Please specify the storage you would like to use (glusterfs, iscsi, fc, nfs)[nfs]: Should I also see options for using ceph rbd, or do I need to start with nfs, and migrate the self-hosted engine to rbd after the initial setup is complete? --Mike

Latest oVirt images
by Michael Thomas 11 Nov '24

11 Nov '24

tl;dr Where can I find a compatible set of host packages and hosted-engine image? What is the recommended combination to use for new installs? First, some background: I've been trying to get a new oVirt 4.5.5 install on Rocky 9 hosts using a hosted engine. My first few attempts failed because the engine image (ovirt-engine-appliance-4.5-20231201120201.1.el9) was still based on CentOS8-stream. Using --ansible-extra-vars=he_pause_before_engine_setup=true I was able to redirect the repos to vault.centos.org. This helped, but still failed when the engine tried to access the host: 2024-11-06 17:05:53,600-0600 DEBUG otopi.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.ansible_utils ansible_utils._process_output:109 {'msg': 'Host is not up, please check logs, perhaps also on the engine machine', '_ansible_no_log': False, 'changed': False} 2024-11-06 17:05:53,700-0600 ERROR otopi.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.ansible_utils ansible_utils._process_output:113 fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Host is not up, please check logs, perhaps also on the engine machine"} ...and the logs on the engine throw a NetworkNotFoundError while trying to set up OVN: "stdout" : "fatal: [hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu] FAILED! => {\"changed\": true, \"cmd\": [\"vdsm-tool\", \"ovn-config\", \"10.110.115.21\", \"hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu\"], \"delta\": \"0:00:02.413890\", \"end\": \"2024-11-08 14:29:54.215138\", \"msg\": \"non-zero return code\", \"rc\": 1, \"start\": \"2024-11-08 14:29:51.801248\", \"stderr\": \"Traceback (most recent call last):\\n File \\\"/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/vdsm/tool/ovn_config.py\\\", line 117, in get_network\\n return networks[net_name]\\nKeyError: 'hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu'\\n\\nDuring handling of the above exception, another exception o ccurred:\\n\\nTraceback (most recent call last):\\n File \\\"/usr/bin/vdsm-tool\\\", line 195, in main\\n return tool_command[cmd][\\\"command\\\"](*args)\\n File \\\"/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/vdsm/tool/ovn_config.py\\\", line 63, in ovn_config\\n ip_address = get_ip_addr(get_network(network_caps(), net_name))\\n File \\\"/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/vdsm/tool/ovn_config.py\\\", line 119, in get_network\\n raise NetworkNotFoundError(net_name)\\nvdsm.tool.ovn_config.NetworkNotFoundError: hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu\", \"stderr_lines\": [\"Traceback (most recent call last):\", \" File \\\"/usr/lib/python3. 9/site-packages/vdsm/tool/ovn_config.py\\\", line 117, in get_network\", \" r eturn networks[net_name]\", \"KeyError: 'hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu'\", \"\", \"During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:\", \"\", \"Traceback (most recent call last):\", \" File \\\"/usr/bin/vdsm-tool\\\", line 195, in main\", \" return tool_command[cmd][\\\"command\\\"](*args)\", \" File \\\"/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/vdsm/tool/ovn_config.py\\\", line 63, in ovn_config\", \" ip_address = get_ip_addr(get_network(network_caps(), net_name))\", \" File \\\"/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/vdsm/tool/ovn_config.py\\\", line 119, in get_network\", \" raise NetworkNotFoundError(net_name)\", \"vdsm.tool.ovn_config.NetworkNotFoundError: hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu\"], \"stdout\": \"\", \"stdout_lines\": []}", Ok, so then I think to myself that I should be using a newer engine image. I installed ovirt-engine-appliance-4.5-20240817071039.1.el9.x86_64.rpm and tried again. But of course that failed because the host and engine now have incompatible versions: [ ERROR ] fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "The host has been set in non_operational status, deployment errors: code 154: Host hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu is compatible with versions (4.2,4.3,4.4,4.5,4.6,4.7) and cannot join Cluster CDS which is set to version 4.8., code 1110: Host hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu's following network(s) are not synchronized with their Logical Network configuration: ovirtmgmt., code 9000: Failed to verify Power Management configuration for Host hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu., fix accordingly and re-deploy."} --Mike

Marcos Yes I understand what you are saying and that is great for a 1Gbps network, I have a 200Gbps network and I am only getting 140MiB/sec.

Marcos, These are not small files, the files I am talking about are about 400GB or bigger. If I do the same thing on another DE6000 with SAS disks, I don't see this issue. Thin provisioned disks are ok on both storage systems, But the 6600F has NVME interfaced SSDs and runs this slow on preallocated disks. For the short term we are just going to go back to thin provisioned as we can't get the backups to finish in the allocated time windows.

Images upload - Content Security Policy
by jiri.mikulas＠mibcon.cz 08 Nov '24

Hello I'm using Oracle Linux with ovirt-engine 4.5.5-1.22.el8 Operating System: Oracle Linux Server 8.10 Kernel: Linux 5.15.0-301.163.5.2.el8uek.x86_64 After upgrading from ovirt-engine version 4.5.5-1.21.el8 to version 4.5.5-1.22.el8, there seems to be an issue with uploading images. When trying to test the connection for uploading images using Storage -> Domains -> MyStorage -> Disks -> Upload I debugged network communication in "chrome inspect" and received the error: "Refused to connect to https://ovirt-engine:54323/info/ because it appears in neither the connect-src directive nor the default-src directive of the Content Security Policy." Has anyone encountered this problem? I have the CA certificate properly imported since version 4.5.5-1.21.el8, where the uploads worked normally. Regards Jiri

Adding ISO doesn't work

I have a problem adding ISO. Fresh installation of OracleLinux-R8-U10 with Ovirt Version:4.5.5-1.22.el8 installed on it. I've already gone through all possible forums and threads with a similar problem, but none of them have been solved, and I haven't been able to solve the ISO problem either. Engine is installed as a virtual machine on VMware and manages two KVM hosts (also a fresh install). I replaced the certificates for the test, but it didn't help and I went back to the old configuration. I keep getting a certificate error when running the test, even though I added it to the browser. I tested on different browsers. "Connection to ovirt-imageio service has failed. Ensure that ovirt-engine certificate is registered as a valid CA in the browser." Can I get help here?

Need advice before building a new oVirt Environment
by gbigras＠telesat.com 08 Nov '24

08 Nov '24

My question will be down below but before that here is some background info: I currently have a functioning oVirt env (v4.5.7) with two self-hosted nodes (hand-me-down servers) and shared storage (TrueNAS server) with three data domains: one for the EngineVM (iSCSI), one for the VMs (iSCSI) and one for ISO files (NFS). The powers that be, want to move away from TrueNAS and hand-me-downs and have new servers and a new NAS appliance (most likely NetApp). They are the ones who did not want to spend the money on new gear but now they have changed their minds. I wish that I could have started my oVirt env on the new equipment. This new equipment will take at best 2 months to arrive. In the meantime, I have to create various VMs in my existing environment. Once my new gear arrives, what is the recommended approach: 1 - Start from scratch with a new datacenter/cluster env? Can I migrate VMs from one DC to another? The docs seem to say no. I'm guessing, I would have to export first, then import. 2 - Can my new equipment be part of the same DC but a different cluster? I was thinking that option #2 is the right approach. I could start with storage (ie: new NetApp) as part of the new cluster. Once that is part of the cluster, I can add hosts then finally migrate VMs. What say you? thank you in advance.

Preparing to issue an oVirt release post Red Hat offboarding
by Sandro Bonazzola 01 Nov '24

01 Nov '24

Hi, Oracle fixed CVE-2024-7259 ( https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine/security/advisories/GHSA-8xjm-j7fq-3w… ) in oVirt Engine and would be nice to issue an oVirt Engine release including the fix. As the current master also includes support for new cluster level 4.8, VDSM needs to be released as well providing cluster level 4.8. As you know, Red Hat offboarded the project and as such there are no more people officially assigned to the project from the company, despite a few of the historical developers still spend some of their free time helping out. I can help building the packages and getting them out on my free time but I have no capacity for doing any testing or documentation updates or release notes related to this release. Last oVirt Engine (4.5.6) was also released last February without any formal release announce. Any volunteer to look into differences between current master and current stable release and see if anything else needs to be released other than ovirt-engine and vdsm? Any volunteer to write release notes and update the website accordingly? Any volunteer to run ovirt-system-test on https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine/pull/970 and https://github.com/oVirt/vdsm/pull/422 as OST doesn't run anymore on GitHub? Regards, -- Sandro Bonazzola
