[Users] GlusterFS Distributed Replicate
by gregoire.leroy＠retenodus.net 20 Dec '13

20 Dec '13

Hello, As I said in a previous email, I have this configuration with Ovirt 3.3 : 1 Ovirt Engine 2 Hosts Centos 6.5 I successfully setup GlusterFS. I created a distributed replicate volume with 2 bricks : host1:/gluster and host2:/gluster. Then, I created a storage storage_gluster POSIXFS with the option glusterfs and I gave the path "host1:/gluster". First, I'm rather surprised I have to specify an host for the storage as I wish to have a distribute replicated storage. I expected to specify both hosts. Then I create a VM on this storage. The expected behaviour if I shutdown host1 should be that my VM keeps running on the second brick. Yet, not only I lose my VM but host2 is in a non operationnal status because one of its data storage is not reachable. Did I miss something in the configuration ? How could I get the wanted behaviour ? Thanks a lot, Regards, Grégoire Leroy

I've been able to find prebuilt virt-io drivers and spice agents for Windows. Are there any repositories for prebuilt qemu-agent and ovirt agents for Windows?

[Users] Clarification - Thin Disk

Up to now for me a thin disk is space that is allocated on demand. But if I create VM from a template and use type "Thin" it must be a little bit different. The newly created VM will operate on the frozen template data plus some delta file that stores the changed block. Is that right? Shouldn't that be a "linked-disk"? Extra question: Why can't I move a (thin provisioned) template disk and instead have to copy it and delete it afterwards? Thanks in advance.

Hello, when editing a VM I see in console section that there is an option defined as: VirtIO Console Device Enabled By default the checkbox is not selected. I didn't find clear references to what this option enable/disable inside the guest... Thanks in advance for any clarification. Gianluca

[Users] Bridge w/o IP address?
by Blaster 19 Dec '13

19 Dec '13

I want to put multiple VMs on the same hypervisor, some will be Internet facing, some will be internal facing. I obviously don't want the hypervisor to be an attack vector, so I don't want the HV to have an IP address on the DMZ network. Is this configuration as simple as creating another another bridge like the ovirtmgmt bridge, not giving it an IP address, and adding it to the DMZ facing hosts?

[Users] Ubuntu & Debian guest agent
by Sven Kieske 19 Dec '13

19 Dec '13

Hi, I'm currently investigating the use of the guest agent on the above mentioned operating systems (12.04.3 lts server for Ubuntu and Debian 7). The wiki pages seem outdated to me, as it states for Ubuntu: "There are binary packages available on launchpad PPA. These packages are just for demo." AFAIK there should be somewhere a package with production ready agent at least for Ubuntu(I saw this mentioned somewhere)? ATM I'm running engine 3.3.1 but plan to upgrade to 3.3.2, once RC gets released on Monday. Are there any known limitations in combining different agent/vdsm/engine versions? Can someone point me to some more accurate and up-to-date information than these? http://www.ovirt.org/Ubuntu/GuestAgent http://www.ovirt.org/Debian/GuestAgent http://www.ovirt.org/Category:Ovirt_guest_agent http://www.ovirt.org/Ovirt_guest_agent Thanks in advance -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Regards Sven Kieske Systemadministrator Mittwald CM Service GmbH & Co.
