Hi Artur,
Thanks for the reply. I have attached the system logs. There was a
disconnect at 10:54, but no error that is different to the rest. I do see a
whole lot of QEMU Guest Agent and block_io errors in the system logs. Not
entirely sure what this means.
After a very quick search on the internet the first one does not seem to be
severe at all - this guest agent provides only some information to VMs
about the host.

The second one is unknown to me at all:

Perhaps someone with more libvirt/qemu background will comment on that.
Checking the vdsm logs at the time or the error, the only entry is the
below:
“2020-09-18 10:55:57,081+0000 WARN (qgapoller/2)

This WARN does not seem to be the cause ... it may be be the result because
VM failed to be dispatched (perhaps due to lack of suitable hosts that got
disconnected at a moment)
I am stumped. Do you think it is worth a shot increasing the vdsConnectionTimeout
and vdsHeartbeatInSeconds to 40 for testing purposes?
I still don't think it will change anything unless your network between
those 2 DC is 'tcp over pigeons' kind of setup :)
Now, more seriously. Even if increasing timeouts would fix the connectivity
I suspect the core issue would still remain ... in the best case scenario
it could be postponed a bit.
Am I correct assuming those 2 DC are located in 2 different physical
locations? If so then I would closely check the network itself first
(including hardware like routers/switches).
Artur
Thanks

Hi Anton,
I am not sure if changing this value would fix the issue. Defaults are
pretty high. For example vdsHeartbeatInSeconds=30seconds,
vdsTimeout=180seconds, vdsConnectionTimeout=20seconds.
Do you still have relevant logs from the affected hosts:
* /var/logs/vdsm/vdsm.log*
* /var/logs/vdsm/supervdsm.log*
Please look for any jsonrpc errors ie. write/read errors or (connection)
timeouts. Storage related warnings/errors might also be relevant.
Plus system logs if possible:
*journalctl -f /usr/share/vdsm/vdsmd*
*journalctl -f /usr/sbin/libvirtd*
In order to get system logs from particular time period please combine it
with the following example using -S -U options:
*journalctl -S "2020-01-12 07:00:00" -U "2020-01-12 07:15:00" *
I haven't a clue what to look there for besides any warnings/errors or
anything else that seems .... unusual.

Hi Everybody,
Did some digging around, and saw a few things regarding “vdsHeartbeatInSeconds”
I had a look at the properties file located at
/etc/ovirt-engine/engine-config/engine-config.properties, and do not see an entry for
“vdsHeartbeatInSeconds.type=Integer”.
Seeing as these data centers are geographically split, could the “vdsHeartbeatInSeconds”
potentially be the issue? Is it safe to increase this value after I add
“vdsHeartbeatInSeconds.type=Integer” into my engine-config.properties file?
Thanks

*Subject:* [ovirt-users] Random hosts disconnects
Hi All,
I have a strange issue in my oVirt environment. I currently have a
standalone manager which is running in VMware. In my oVirt environment, I
have two Data Centers. The manager is currently sitting on the same subnet
as DC1. Randomly, hosts in DC2 will say “Not Responding” and then 2 seconds
later, the hosts will activate again.
The strange thing is, when the manager was sitting on the same subnet as
DC2, hosts in DC1 will randomly say “Not Responding”
I have tried going through the logs, but I cannot see anything out of the
ordinary regarding why the hosts would drop connection. I have attached the
engine.log for anybody that would like to do a spot check.
Thanks
