[ovirt-users] Re: vender_id syntax UserDefinedVMProperties

You also need to have this code hooked in: cd /usr/libexec/vdsm/hooks/before_vm_start/ vi 99_mask_kvm #!/usr/bin/python2 import hooking domxml = hooking.read_domxml() hyperv = domxml.getElementsByTagName('hyperv')[0] smm = domxml.createElement('vendor_id') smm.setAttribute('state', 'on') smm.setAttribute('value', '1234567890ab') hyperv.appendChild(smm) features = domxml.getElementsByTagName('features')[0] kvm = domxml.createElement('kvm') hidden = domxml.createElement('hidden') hidden.setAttribute('state', 'on') kvm.appendChild(hidden) features.appendChild(kvm) hooking.write_domxml(domxml) only problem now is that I cant boot a linux VM with the vendor_is portion there......

I see the code is being generated in the xml with the hook. But I still get error code 43. Someone mentioned doing it with eufi bios and that worked for them. So when I get back from work today, perhaps ill give that a try.  >> >> On Mon, Mar 18, 2019, 6:10 AM Darin Schmidt <darinschmidt(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: >>> >>> I have gotten the system to see the card, its in device manager. The problem seems to be that I cannot use it in the VM because from what I have been finding out is that it gets and error code 43. Nvidia drivers disable the card if it detects that its being used in a VM. I have found some code to use to hook it into the xml before_vm_starts. >>> >>> 99_mask_kvm >>> #!/usr/bin/python2 >>> >>> import hooking >>> domxml = hooking.read_domxml() >>> >>> hyperv = domxml.getElementsByTagName('hyperv')[0] >>> smm = domxml.createElement('vendor_id') >>> smm.setAttribute('state', 'on') >>> smm.setAttribute('value', '1234567890ab') >>> hyperv.appendChild(smm) >>> >>> features = domxml.getElementsByTagName('features')[0] >>> kvm = domxml.createElement('kvm') >>> hidden = domxml.createElement('hidden') >>> hidden.setAttribute('state', 'on') >>> kvm.appendChild(hidden) >>> features.appendChild(kvm) >>> >>> hooking.write_domxml(domxml) >>> >>> >>> I am currently reinstalling the drivers to see if this helps.  >>> >>> kvm off and vender_id is now in the xml code that get generated when the VM is started.
