--------------060904020206020404060005 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1"; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I ran into this problem when I tried to use engine-iso-uploader, but reading on the lists makes it sound like it may be a more general problem. There was a bug that caused this, but that was back in the ver. 3.0/3.1 days, and doesn't seem common since then. Back on Dec 24 I was able to upload an ISO file OK, so I am not sure what has changed since then. I am running a test setup, fully up to date: office2a host w/ glusterfs Centos 6 office4a host w/ glusterfs Centos 6 ov-eng01 engine on Centos 6 VM (not hosted on oVirt) office9 KVM host (not oVirt) for ov-eng01 whether I log in to ov-eng01 by ssh or execute the command from the console, I get: # engine-iso-uploader list -v Please provide the REST API password for the admin@internal oVirt Engine user (CTRL+D to abort): ERROR: Problem connecting to the REST API. Is the service available and does the CA certificate exist? checking on some things suggested on a thread about engine-iso-uploader back in March, I get: # ls -la /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ca.pem -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 4569 Nov 10 15:13 /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ca.pem # cat /var/log/ovirt-engine/ovirt-iso-uploader/ovirt-iso-uploader/20140117112938.log 2014-01-17 11:29:44::ERROR::engine-iso-uploader::512::root:: Problem connecting to the REST API. Is the service available and does the CA certificate exist? The thread back in March gave a work-around to upload ISO images directly, so I am not "blocked" from uploading images, but I would like to get things working "right", as I am afraid the problem will "turn around and bite me" down the road.

[Users] Engine installation issue
by Nauman Abbas 20 Jan '14

Hello all, I can't seem to run engine setup on my machine. I get the following error. Googled around, can't find a solution [ INFO ] Creating PostgreSQL database [ INFO ] Configuring PostgreSQL [ ERROR ] Failed to execute stage 'Misc configuration': Command '/bin/systemctl' failed to execute [ INFO ] Yum Performing yum transaction rollback [ INFO ] Stage: Clean up Log file is located at /var/log/ovirt-engine/setup/ovirt-engine-setup-20140115032633.log [ INFO ] Stage: Pre-termination [ INFO ] Stage: Termination [ ERROR ] Execution of setup failed It happened to me on two machines which kinda makes me think someone else also must have come across this. A little help would be great. Regards Nauman Abbas Assistant System Administrator (LMS), Room No. A-207, SEECS, National University of Sciences & Technology, + 92 321 5359946

[Users] vlan on mgmt network
by Juan Pablo Lorier 19 Jan '14

19 Jan '14

Hi William, You can have several logical networks on the same interface. If ovirtmgmt is not a vm network you can even mix tagged and untagged networks (if not, you can't mix). You don's have to do anything besides creating the logical networks in ovirt and assign them to the interface, ovirt takes care of creating the virtual interfaces it needs. What you can't do is have more than one logical network per vlan (I think there's a feature request on this, I know I've asked it on the list:-) ). Regards,

[Users] Move disk to new AIO?
by Blaster 19 Jan '14

19 Jan '14

I have my current ovirt 3.3.2 AIO setup running on old hardware that I wish to move to new hardware. All my VMs and associated virtual disks are on a single physical disk. I can’t seem to find a nice way to “export” that disk and VMs, remove it, and re-import the whole mess into a new hypervisor. (at least w/o not having to bounce it all off of another NFS datastore…) I don’t want to cluster them as they are significantly different hardware, and I want to keep them as separate environments anyways…

[Users] Migration from NFS backed VM to iSCSI LUN without exporting them on the Ovirt Export Share
by squadra 18 Jan '14

18 Jan '14

Hello folks, since the nfs discussion remembered me that i got some vm left to migrate... here some kind of special question. i am open for non-bestpractice hacky solutions, too Situation is: - 2 Ovirt Cluster - Same DC - one NFS backed, one iSCSI backed - NFS Share and iSCSI Share are exported from the same phys. Machine - Bot DC use the same filer, just different Luns / Protocolls so, i thought about something simple like just move vm folder from a to b and do a little bit database voodoo? anyone did something like this yet? or is storage live migration already working for this? the docs didnt tell me very much about this. Cheers, Juergn -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology!

[Users] New user to oVirt, and I haz a sad so far...
by Will Dennis (Live.com) 18 Jan '14

18 Jan '14

Hi all, ready for a story? (well, more of a rant, but hopefully it will be a good UX tale, and may even be entertaining.) Had one of the groups come to me at work this week and request a OpenStack setup. When I sat down and discussed their needs, it turns out that they really only need a multi-hypervisor setup where they can spin up VMs for their research projects. The VMs should be fairly long-lived, and will have persistent storage. Their other request is that the storage should be local on the hypervisor nodes (they plan to use Intel servers with 8-10 2TB drives for VM storage on each node.) They desire this in order to keep the VM I/O local - they do not have a SAN of any sort anyhow, and they do not care about live migration, etc. In any case, knowing that they did not want to afford a VMware setup (which is what I'm used to using), I proposed using oVirt to fill their needs, having heard and read up on it a bit (It's "open-source VMware", right?) even though I had not used it before (I have however made single-node KVM hypervisors for their group before, utilizing Open vSwitch, libvirt, virt-manager etc., so I'm not completely ignorant of KVM/libvirt etc.) In any case, I took one of their older servers which was already running CentOS 6.5, installed the requisite packages on it, and in short order had an engine server up and running (oVirt 3.3.2). That seems to have been the easy part :-/ Now came the installation of a hypervisor node. I downloaded and burned an ISO of the latest oVirt node installer (ovirt-node-iso-3.0.3-1.1.vdsm.fc19.iso) and tried to install it on one of their target Intel servers. On the 1st try I got to the end of the setup TUI, invoked the Install link, and was promptly thrown an error (sorry, but forgot what it was, something like "press X for a command prompt, or Reboot".) No problem, I rebooted, selected booting off the CD again, waited until the TUI came up, and when I tried to move past the first screen, it threw me out to a login prompt. OK, enough of that (the server takes a long time to reboot, and then boot off the CD) - I then thought I would try it on a VMware Workstation VM (yes, I get the irony, but VMware wkstn can handle nested virt, so it's a great testbed platform for OpenStack, etc.) because that would install a heck of a lot faster. That went a lot better - got the oVirt node 3.0.3 installed on the first try. More pain was soon to follow, however. I logged in and started configuring the node. The TUI was easy enough - much like an ESXi node ;) I set the NIC to IPv4 static, entered in the correct IP info, registered a DNS name for the IP I had assigned, and then tested pinging the engine, all was good. I then moved on to the section where you define the engine. I entered in the FQDN of the engine, verified the key fingerprint, and clicked the "Save and Register" link at the bottom. That seemed to work, so I completed the rest of the TUI, and then looked at the oVirt engine web UI. There was my new node, ready for authorization. I clicked the link to authorize it, and after a while, the UI came back with "Install Failed" status. Hmmm. So I went back to the node's TUI, and now some of the screens said that the IP addr was unconfigured? I went then to the Network screen, and sure enough, the NIC at the bottom showed "Unconfigured". WTF? So I went and entered in the correct info back in the IPv4 section, and then arrowed down to the Save link and clicked it - and the next screen said something like "No info needing changes, nothing to do." Whaaaa? Went back to the network setup screen, NIC still showing "Unconfigured" even though the IPv4 info still was there. I did a ping test at this point from the Ping link on the network setup page, and what do you know - I could still ping IP's (the engine, the default gw, etc.) But as I moved around the TUI, other screens still said that the network was unconfigured. Went back to the Web UI of the engine, put the host in Maint, then tried to Activate it, still no go - Install Failed. Even though I had configured the node to allow remote access and set a password, and also verified via nmap that TCP port 22 on the node was indeed listening, when I tried to SSH into the node as admin, I immediately got a "connection closed" message, so that failed as well. Went back to the node's network setup page, set the IPv4 to "Disabled", saved it, then went back and set it back to "Static" then re-entered the IPv4 info. Clicked the Save link, it went thru the setup again, came back with a success, verified with ping etc. that networking was working on the node. The engine web UI still said that it could not connect to the node however. So I put the node in Maint, and then removed it. I went back to the node, went to the Engine setup page, and re-did the screen to define the engine on the node. I notice that after I did this, however, that the node screens went back to saying that the network was unconfigured. Grrrrrr. But the node was back in the engine's Web UI, however no joy this time either - "Install failed" again. Well, the hell with this, said I - I removed the node again from the engine, and went and installed Fedora 19 minimal install on the VM, so I could use the directions found in http://www.ovirt.org/Quick_Start_Guide#Install_Fedora_Host and give that a try. (At least I can see what's going on with the node's OS using F19.) Installing F19 on the VM was a breeze, then logged in as root and did the "yum localinstall http://ovirt.org/releases/ovirt-release-fedora.noarch.rpm" which ran fine. I then stopped firewalld, and set it not to run at boot (which is what we typically do anyhow for internal research servers.) Then went over to the engine UI, and manually added the node. Oh happy day - the node seemed to install OK - it had the status of "Installing" for quite some time, and I looked at the processes on the F19 node, and could see python installer programs running via an SSH session from the engine. HOWEVER, at the end of the process, the Web UI reported a status of "Non Responsive", even though the F19 node looks OK (it had sanlock, supervdsmServer, vdsm processes running.) So thinking that it may take an after-install reboot, I did that, waited until the node came back up again, then clicked in the engine web UI and executed the "Confirm 'Host has been rebooted'" command, but still no good - the node remains in "Non Responsive" status. So I have no idea on how to proceed now, and what methods I can use to try and debug the connectivity problem between the engine and node. And there's many miles to go in setting up the whole environment. Maaaaaybe OpenStack would be easier ;-P No, I will press on and try to get this thing working... It seems it works for others, and looks like the right fit for the job. Just wish it was easier to get up and running. Oh yes, I tried reading the docs - go to http://www.ovirt.org/Quick_Start_Guide#Install_Hosts and click on the link for "see the oVirt Node deployment documentation." Not too helpful... (Bug report has been opened.) Thanks for reading, and any clues on getting a node up and running gratefully accepted... - Will

[Users] Create VLAN for WAN traffic
by Neil Schulz 17 Jan '14

17 Jan '14

I'm not very knowledgeable in VLANs. Sorry for the lack of knowledge in advance. Is it possible to create a VLAN for WAN traffic, to separate it from the internal network? I'd imagine so. It was a automated and simple process when use XenServer. I'm trying to switch from Xen to oVirt and when trying to recreate this, I'm unable to ping out from the VM. This leads me to believe the VLAN was created incorrectly. I created ifcfg-br1 on the host and through the engine, created the logical network with VLAN tagging 20. Does the interface, ifcfg-br1, require a public IP, any IP address, no ip address? (Sorry, never created a VLAN for WAN traffic as it was automated in XenServer) From there I have the VM installed and configured with a public IP address, however, only get Destination Host Unreachable, meaning it has no route out. I am banging my head on the desk trying to figure this out. Can anyone give me any assistance? Thank you, Neil

[Users] Ovirt DR setup
by Hans Emmanuel 17 Jan '14

17 Jan '14

Hi all , I would like to know about the possibility of setup Disaster Recovery Site (DR) for an Ovirt cluster . i.e if site 1 goes down I need to trigger the site 2 to come in to action with the minimal down time . I am open to use NFS shared storage or local storage for data storage domain . I know we need to replicate the storage domain and Ovirt confs and DB across the sites , but couldn't find any doc for the same , isn't that possible with Ovirt ? *Hans Emmanuel* *NOthing to FEAR but something to FEEL......*

Is it possible to use leased dedicated servers as ovirt nodes? In my mind it seems likely, but input from the community would be appreciated. I'm envisioning a controller node running on a dedicated server leased from a provider and multiple compute nodes running on several different providers spread out over the net. I don't require any migration capability for the purposes of this. I manage a large farm of servers, and if this works like I think it would, I believe it would speed up deployment of new servers and also provide a better central management platform. If this is possible, what would be the requirements, pitfalls, etc.? Thanks in advance. -- *NADA Convention & Expo*: January 24-27, 2014 - New Orleans, LA - Booth 5001 <http://www.bbb.org/south-east-florida/business-reviews/advertising-agencies…><http://www.bbb.org/south-east-florida/business-reviews/advertising-agencies…>

[Users] Attach NFS storage to multiple datacenter
by Tobias Fiebig 17 Jan '14

17 Jan '14

Heho, for some reason i currently have two active datacenters in ovirt 3.3 which should be cold migrated to one new datacenter. Is there a simple way to attach an nfs-storage to all datacenters, so it can be used to migrate the virtual machines? I was sadly unable to find documentation on this issue online... With best Regards, Tobias

[Users] What's the correct way to upload a VM ISO image?
by David Li 17 Jan '14

17 Jan '14

Hi, I am a little confused by the quick start guide. It lists a command to upload the ISO image: engine-iso-uploader upload -i local-iso-share [file1] [file2] .... [fileN] My questions are: 1. Do I have to copy the files (ISO images) from somewhere else to the engine machine before using this cmd? If image files are on a different server, what's the right syntax to upload them? 2. Is "local-iso-share" the name of the ISO domain? For example, should I use "ISO_DOMAIN" if I have the following: ISO Storage Domain Name | Datacenter | ISO Domain Status ISO_DOMAIN | DC-CPA3 | active 3. If I don't use engine-iso-uploader command, instead I prefer to uploading the image myself. What is the right directory for me to put my images in? Is it /var/lib/exports/iso on the machine running the ovirt engine? Thanks. David

Hi all, I would like to get some comparison on NFS & iSCSI storage domain . Which one more suitable for a production setup ? I am planning to use LVM backed DRBD replication . And also is that possible to expand iSCSI storage domain by simply resizing backend LVM ? -- *Hans Emmanuel* *NOthing to FEAR but something to FEEL......*

Hi All, I would like to see, in the webui, all VMs that have snapshots attached to them but I'm not able to construct a search that will work. For one thing there is no 'Snapshot' category so I think that it will be impossible. The use case is that I would like to have a way to see, in the webui, which VMs are running stateless, accidents happen :-( . Joop

[Users] [QE] oVirt 3.4.0 alpha / beta status
by Sandro Bonazzola 17 Jan '14

17 Jan '14

Hi, oVirt 3.4.0 alpha has been released and is actually on QA. An issue has been found in VDSM so we have updated the packages in alpha repositories for Fedora. We had an issue with nightly build for EL6 packages yesterday so EL6 repository is not yet updated. We'll try to sync it today, I'm sorry for the inconvenient. We'll start composing oVirt 3.4.0 beta on 2014-01-20 14:00 UTC from 3.4 branches. The bug tracker [1] shows the following bugs blocking the release: Whiteboard Bug ID Summary gluster 1038988 Gluster brick sync does not work when host has multiple interfaces integration 1054080 gracefully warn about unsupported upgrade from legacy releases network 1054195 [NetworkLabels] Attaching two labeled networks to a cluster result in failure of the latter There are still 280 bugs [2] targeted to 3.4.0. Excluding node and documentation bugs we still have 237 bugs [3] targeted to 3.4.0. Please review them as soon as possible. Maintainers: - Please remember to rebuild your packages before 2014-01-21 12:00 UTC if you want them to be included in 3.4.0 beta. - Please add the bugs to the tracker if you think that 3.4.0 should not be released without them fixed. - Please provide ETA on blockers bugs - Please update the target to 3.4.1 or any next release for bugs that won't be in 3.4.0: it will ease gathering the blocking bugs for next releases. - Please fill release notes, the page has been created here [4] - Please update http://www.ovirt.org/OVirt_3.4_TestDay before 2014-01-23 For those who want to help testing the bugs, I suggest to add yourself as QA contact for the bug. Please also be prepared for upcoming oVirt 3.4.0 Test Day on 2014-01-23! Thanks to all people already testing 3.4.0 alpha!

Hi, I'm giving the new hosted-engine feature a try with the new 3.4.0 alpha build on centos 6.5 hosted-engine --deply seems to fail at the 'Environment setup" [ ERROR ] Failed to execute stage 'Environment setup': Command '/sbin/service' failed to execute Within the logs I believe it seems to be related to vdsm. Logs show "VDS daemon is not running" service vdsm start gives the following error: initctl: Job is already running: libvirtd vdsm: Running mkdirs vdsm: Running configure_coredump vdsm: Running run_init_hooks vdsm: Running gencerts vdsm: Running check_is_configured libvirt is already configured for vdsm sanlock service is already configured vdsm: Running validate_configuration SUCCESS: ssl configured to true.

Older Vdsms did not have those defined, and used only linux bridges. This command is kept as an upgrade tool for the (very few) people who still have such old setups running. Commands in module validate_ovirt_certs: validate-ovirt-certs Validate vdsmcert.pem against cacert.pem. If current cacert.pem is invalidate, it will find a validate certificate file and replace the old cacert.pem with it. And then persist it. Commands in module vdsm-id: vdsm-id Printing host uuid vdsm: failed to execute unified_network_persistence_upgrade, error code 1 vdsm start [FAILED] Any suggestions? Thanks, Andrew
