I'm using oVirt 3.3.3 beta1 after upgrade from 3.3.2 on fedora 19 ovirt beta repo It seems bug referred by Vijay (1017289) is still marked as "assigned", but actually it is for rhel 6. Bug referred by Dan (1022961) is marked as "blocked" but I don't see any particular updates since late november. But it is for rhevm, so I think it is for rhel 6... So what is the situation for fedora 19 and oVirt in upcoming 3.3.3? And upcoming fedora 19/20 and 3.4? I ask because I see that in my qemu command line generated by oVirt there is: for virtio (virtio-blk) disk -drive file=/rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/node01.mydomain:gvdata/d0b96d4a-62aa-4e9f-b50e-f7a0cb5be291/images/a5e4f67b-50b5-4740-9990-39deb8812445/53408cb0-bcd4-40de-bc69-89d59b7b5bc2,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=raw,serial=a5e4f67b-50b5-4740-9990-39deb8812445,cache=none,werror=stop,rerror=stop,aio=threads for virtio-scsi disk -drive file=/rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/node01.mydomain:gvdata/d0b96d4a-62aa-4e9f-b50e-f7a0cb5be291/images/c1477133-6b06-480d-a233-1dae08daf8b3/c2a82c64-9dee-42bb-acf2-65b8081f2edf,if=none,id=drive-scsi0-0-0-0,format=raw,serial=c1477133-6b06-480d-a233-1dae08daf8b3,cache=none,werror=stop,rerror=stop,aio=threads So it is referred as mount point and not gluster:// way Also, the output of "mount" command on hypervisors shows: node01.mydomain:gvdata on /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/node01.mydomain:gvdata type fuse.glusterfs (rw,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other,max_read=131072) fusectl on /sys/fs/fuse/connections type fusectl (rw,relatime) and it seems indeed fuse mount, so not using libgfapi... output of "lsof -Pp pid" where pid is the qemu process shows libgfapi....: qemu-syst 2057 qemu mem REG 253,0 99440 541417 /usr/lib64/libgfapi.so.0.0.0 (btw: strange version 0.0.0 for a release.. not so reassuring ;-) # ll /usr/lib64/libgfapi.so.0* lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 17 Jan 7 12:45 /usr/lib64/libgfapi.so.0 -> libgfapi.so.0.0.0 -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 99440 Jan 3 13:35 /usr/lib64/libgfapi.so.0.0.0 ) At page http://www.gluster.org/category/qemu/ there is a schema about mount types and benchmarks 1) FUSE mount 2) GlusterFS block driver in QEMU (FUSE bypass) 3) Base (VM image accessed directly from brick) ( qemu-system-x86_64 –enable-kvm –nographic -smp 4 -m 2048 -drive file=/test/F17,if=virtio,cache=none => /test is brick directory ) I have not understood if we are in Base (best performance) or FUSE (worst performance) thanks in advance for clarifications and possible roadmaps...

[Users] Horrid performance during disk I/O
by Blaster 17 Jan '14

17 Jan '14

This probably more appropriate for the qemu users mailing list, but that list doesn’t get much traffic and most posts go unanswered… As I’ve mentioned in the past, I’m migrating my environment from ESXi to oVirt AIO. Under ESXi I was pretty happy with the disk performance, and noticed very little difference from bare metal to HV. Under oVirt/QEMU/KVM, not so much…. Running hdparm on the disk from the HV and from the guest yields the same number, about 180MB/sec (SATA III disks, 7200RPM). The problem is, during disk activity, and it doesn’t matter if it’s Windows 7 guests or Fedora 20 (both using virtio-scsi) the qemu-system-x86 process starts consuming 100% of the hypervisor CPU. Hypervisor is a Core i7 950 with 24GB of RAM. There’s 2 Fedora 20 guests and 2 Windows 7 guests. Each configured with 4 GB of guaranteed RAM. Load averages can go up over 40 during sustained disk IO. Performance obviously suffers greatly. I have tried all combinations of having the guests on EXT 4, BTRFS and using EXT 4 and BTRFS inside the guests, as well as direct LUN. Doesn’t make any difference. Disk IO sends qemu-system-x86 to high CPU percentages. This can’t be normal, so I’m wondering what I’ve done wrong. Is there some magic setting I’m missing?

[Users] Management server
by Koen Vanoppen 16 Jan '14

16 Jan '14

Dear All, Our setup at work now is: 1 management server and 7 hyper visors. All the systems have centos 6.4 on it. Now my question is: Because of the fact that all the systems have centos on it, we can't use the reports portal and the dwh-portal. Would it be possible to add a second management server to our already existing setup (fedora 19), without !*breaking*! our existing setup, so this one can provide us with the reports and dwh-portal and can also serve as a "Back-Up" management server. If so, how do we handle this? Kind regards, Koen

[Users] ovirt-engine-reports rpm for CentOS and oVirt 3.3
by Nicolas Ecarnot 16 Jan '14

16 Jan '14

Good morning or whenever, I read what RPM I have to install here http://www.ovirt.org/Ovirt_Reports but I can not find any RPM for CentOS 6. I strongly searched around the web and in the different repo folders, as well as in the mailing list msgs, and it seems the production of RPM for CentOS has been disabled for whatever reason. Is there a private recipe to create them or get them an unofficial way (reports, dwh, jasperreports...) Thank you. -- Nicolas Ecarnot

[Users] oVirt node - network config not persisted
by Federico Alberto Sayd 16 Jan '14

16 Jan '14

Hello: I have been testing some hosts with ovirt-node (3.0.1-1.0.2.el6) and when I reboot the node the network config is not persisted. I have seen that this was commented in this list, some time ago. Was this fixed in 3.0.3-1 release? There is a 3.0.3-1.1 image in http://resources.ovirt.org/releases/3.3/iso/, but is only Fedora Core. No el6/Centos image? Thank you Federico

Hello guys. I´m using 3.2 ovirt and suddenly one of my VM started to migrate. The problem is that it´s is Stuck in this process and I can not do nothing on it. I take a look on engine.log and there is nothing there showing a problem, if a try to cancel migration, it says "2014-01-15 10:08:37,129 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.CancelMigrateVmCommand] (ajp--127.0.0.1-8702-3) CanDoAction of action CancelMigrateVm failed.

[Users] VM locked - snapshot deletion
by Neil Schulz 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

I tried creating a snapshot and it failed. I attempted to create another snapshot and it failed as well. I shutdown the VM and tried creating a snapshot, which failed as well. I went to the Snapshot tab and seen the failed snapshots show up and have the Status OK. I tried to delete a snapshot but it is now hung as Locked. I cannot do anything with this virtual machine now. I see this throughout the engine.log: INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.CommandMultiAsyncTasks] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-84) Task with DB Task ID 752072ed-444b-4e17-b7ff-f5b673b4c4bc and VDSM Task ID 98fa364e-38d7-422b-8126-1321f29908a9 is in state Polling. End action for command 77662498-d73d-48d7-b9c3-21b53e2673ba will proceed when all the entitys tasks are completed. Anyone know a fix for this? Thank you, Neil

Re: [Users] Fwd: Re: Help: Problem uploading the ISO file on engine
by David Li 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

The ovirt-iso-uploader log only has one line: 2014-01-13 19:08:05::INFO::engine-iso-uploader::1067::root:: Start uploading CentOS-6.4-x86_64-netinstall.iso This is version 3.3.2-1.el6 My immediate question is how I can kill the upload process without rebooting the engine box? So I can try to reproduce the problem again. It's probably in a "sleep but not interrupt" state. None of the usual kill -9 commands worked. My NFS ISO domain has also been put in the "inactive" state most likely due to this problem. Thanks.

[Users] Showing stacktrace info in GUI error dialog
by Einav Cohen 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

Hi, this is about patch [1] - showing server-side-exception stacktrace info in GUI error dialog. a couple of notes about this patch: (1) I find it a little strange that server-side exceptions are not logged in the server side and are / will be displayed only on the client-side - this needs to be fixed first. (2) once everything is logged on the server side, we can debate whether it makes sense to put the full exception stack-trace *also* in the GUI error pop-up. I think that it is not completely necessary (since if there is a server side exception, the user is likely to go to the server side log anyway to get the full picture / context), but if it is (and I'd like to hear your opinion about that) - we shouldn't show the entire exception in the dialog once the dialog is displayed - that's too much information to absorb. We should show whatever we are showing today, and also something like a "More Details" collapsible section (collapsed by default) that, when expanded, displays the full exception details. comments are welcome. ---- Thanks, Einav [1] http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/23096/

Does anyone know if there are a possibility to increment list elements on ovirt-shell? Because I'm trying to list disk on one storagedomain but it list me only first 100 elements. e.g.:list disks storagedomains-identifier STORNAME | egrep '^name' > /root/disks-name-on-STORNAME.txt p.s I faund on http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.ovirt.infra/3050 that for python api there is an option to pass to "list" function: api.vms.list(max=200) but I cannot find equivalent for ovirt-shell Best regards a

[Users] [ANN] new fedora20 nightlies rpms for oVirt are available for download
by Eyal Edri 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

fyi, oVirt infra has added support for nighlies rpms for various oVirt projects for fedora 20. the following has be done: - All ovirt projects were added f20 nightlies on jenkins.ovirt.org. (replaced f18, which is NOT built nightly anymore). - One jenkins f19 slave (vm02) was upgraded to f20, and we also have a bare metal host running f20 as well. - Nightlies rpms can be downloaded on the repos [1] - Nightlies publish & cleanup scripts were updated on the resources.ovirt.org to support f20. I didn't update any ovirt-node* job, since i'm not familiar with them. if you would like to build f20 builds, just add the 'fedora20' label to the relevant jobs. Eyal.

[Users] Looking for oVirt volunteer speakers!
by Dave Neary 14 Jan '14

14 Jan '14

Hi everyone, Over the next few weeks, we are running a number of one-day events with some colleagues around the open source datacenter and cloud. I would *love* to have some user case studies to present at these events - please let me know if you are local, and would be willing to talk about how you use oVirt. Jan 29: London, UK: London Cloud Summit: http://lanyrd.com/2014/lcs2014/ Feb 5: Ghent, BE: Infrastructure.Next: http://community.redhat.com/blog/2013/12/announcing-infrastructure-next/ There are also a number of conferences coming up at which I would love to have oVirt related content - please consider putting in a proposal for one of these (let me know if you do): * DevNation 2014: San Francisco, April 13-16: http://www.devnation.org/#cfp (Call for papers closes tomorrow!) - I would love to see a presentation on developing an oVirt UI plug-in, or on orchestration & deployment on top of oVirt. * OSCON 2014: Portland, OR, July 20-24: http://www.oscon.com/oscon2014 The CfP closes in 2 weeks, and again, I would love to see a user case study showing oVirt in a real-world usage as a credible open source virt management solution. For both of these, I should be able to help cover costs for travel (not trans-atlantic) - please, again, let me know if you're interested. Thanks!
