Michael, I am interested in the ovirt-shell and I might have missed some earlier discussions. The wiki doesn't say much about how to install it. My questions are: 1. Is this part of ovirt-engine install? 2. Can it entirely replace the engine? Do you have a 'how to get started' page?

[Users] installing ovirt engine on CentOS

Hi, I want to install oVirt on a one-node-CentOS. So I found these two guides that I wanted to follow: http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Installing_ovirt-engine_from_rpm http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Installing_VDSM_from_rpm But then I got stuck on this step: # yum install -y ovirt-engine The errors I received was some packages had to low version number, and some was missing. ---- snip ---- Error: Package: ovirt-engine-jboss-deps-3.0.0_0001-1.6.fc16.x86_64 (ovirt-engine-stable) Requires: hsqldb >= 1:1.8.0.10-9 Available: 1:hsqldb-1.8.0.10-8.el6.x86_64 (base) hsqldb = 1:1.8.0.10-8.el6 Error: Package: ovirt-engine-log-collector-3.0.0_0001-1.6.fc16.x86_64 (ovirt-engine-stable) Requires: python(abi) = 2.7 Installed: python-2.6.6-29.el6.x86_64 (@anaconda-CentOS-201112091719.x86_64/6.2) python(abi) = 2.6 Error: Package: ovirt-engine-jboss-deps-3.0.0_0001-1.6.fc16.x86_64 (ovirt-engine-stable) Requires: jakarta-commons-discovery >= 1:0.4-7 Available: 1:jakarta-commons-discovery-0.4-5.4.el6.noarch (base) jakarta-commons-discovery = 1:0.4-5.4.el6 Error: Package: ovirt-engine-tools-common-3.0.0_0001-1.6.fc16.x86_64 (ovirt-engine-stable) Requires: jakarta-commons-configuration Error: Package: ovirt-engine-tools-common-3.0.0_0001-1.6.fc16.x86_64 (ovirt-engine-stable) Requires: jakarta-commons-jxpath Error: Package: ovirt-engine-3.0.0_0001-1.6.fc16.x86_64 (ovirt-engine-stable) Requires: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.14)(64bit) ---- snip ---- Is there a way to install oVirt on CentOS 6.2 or RHEL 6.2?

[Users] Question for data domains
by Dominic Kaiser 09 Mar '12

09 Mar '12

Hello all, I had a question yesterday about storage domains having a permissions denied error. Something I forgot to ask is can you use a data domain like a master data domain? Meaning can you spin up virtual machines system drives on a non master data domain?

If you still want to use the ovirt-engine then this isn't an option, but if you want to handle all the management yourself than this will work. "Li, David" <LiD(a)cloudshield.com> wrote: Hi, Is it possible to bypass VDSM but use libvirt directly to manage ovirt node? David

[Users] having problem with a storage node
by Dominic Kaiser 08 Mar '12

08 Mar '12

I am using openfiler for my baremetal storage node. It is an NFS share all permissions are right. I currently have a master data node setup the same way and working fine. I was trying to use this data NFS as another storage node to create virtual disks on to run vms. I can attach fine and create disks fine but cannot run a vm. Here is the error: VM fs1 is down. Exit message internal error process exited while connecting to monitor: qemu-kvm: -drive file=/rhev/data-center/c10c25e0-526a-11e1-a5e4-87fa674ffb5d/60a1dff7-f112-433b-b49d-94a14b9ce3f1/images/cfecc532-9a2e-45f5-af71-190b8447c47d/100321d7-f575-4b3b-9af5-d25d765e779f,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=raw,serial=f5-af71-190b8447c47d,cache=none,werror=stop,rerror=stop,aio=threads: could not open disk image /rhev/data-center/c10c25e0-526a-11e1-a5e4-87fa674ffb5d/60a1dff7-f112-433b-b49d-94a14b9ce3f1/images/cfecc532-9a2e-45f5-af71-190b8447c47d/100321d7-f575-4b3b-9af5-d25d765e779f: Permission denied . Again permissions are set fine vdsm owns them and can access and create disks just cannot run the vm.

[Users] missing iso files?
by Joe Pruett 08 Mar '12

08 Mar '12

the docs imply that the virtio and guest tools isos should be installed in the premade iso storage area, but nothing was setup on my install. furthermore the files that should be in /usr/share are not there either. is this something that isn't in ovirt, but only in rhev? or did something mess up in my install?
