ovirt with 389 server inactive groups
by Paul Robert Marino
I have ovirt engine running and connected to a 389 server with the
memberof plugin enabled and working properly.
I can add users and assign them to roles without any issues.
when I look at a user I can see all the LDAP groups they are a member of.
when I run engine-manage-domains -action=validate it tells me the
domain is valid.
here is my problem when I try to assign a role to an LDAP group it
looks like it works but in the general tab when under the group it
tells me the status is Inactive.
dose any one know how to enable the group?

[SOLVED] RE: Reactivate a storage domain
by Dwight Schauer
Hello Ovirt users,
Well, I solved the problem. When the NFS volume had filled up that knocked out non Ovirt managed VMs as well including DHCP servers.
I'd been using DHCP for the management network. The Ovirt hypervisors never refreshed when I brought the DHCP servers back. (The management network was no longer connected).
I went into one Ovirt hypervisor, configured it with static, and after a couple of minutes it become the SPM on its own without my involvement and the storage domains came back.
Sincerely,
Dwight Schauer

Subject: [ovirt-users] Reactivate a storage domain
Hello Ovirt users,
How do I unlock a storage domain? The underlying NFS volume had filled up (I corrected that).
I tried to reactivate the storage domain (it had deactivated to the volume filling up) but then it went into a locked state
According to df -h: 8.0T 6.0T 2.1T 75% # 6T used, 2.1T free
Ovirt thinks it only has 6.0T as is full (well, 1GB free, which is now false, but I can't convince it other wise). (I increased the size of the volume after VMs went into pause due to it filling up).
Now no hosts wants to be the SPM... So my ovirt managed data center is down until I reactivate the NFS storage domain (that is the master).
The storage domain reverts back to an inactive state after a while, but whenever I try to reactivate it goes to the locked state.
Sincerely,
Dwight Schauer

list of answer file parameters?
by Jorick Astrego
Hi,
I'm looking everywhere for a full list of "OVESETUP" parameters that can
be used in the installer answerfile.
Searched the red hat manual and found some in:
"3.6. Passwords in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager"
But there are more. I can get it from a finished install but some
parameters only apply to some types of installation.
I found this one form lzap:
https://gist.github.com/lzap/7a8cbb7f44d41e4ad171
But I don't know if it's complete or just for his personal use.
No hurry, I know you are all busy ;-)
Kind regards,

Vm:s can not be started
by Jonas Israelsson
I screwed up massively today when accidentally assigned a new virtual
network (on my host) the same IP-address as on my iscsi SAN subnet and
as a result the whole DC collapsed (I only have one host). Recovering
was not quite as easy since the host network configuration only can be
managed while the host is either in up, down or maintenance mode, and
mine seem to be somewhere in between.
I finally however managed to remove the network from the cluster tab
marking the net on the hosts nic with a "?" and when the host came back
online and I could later also be remove the faulty network from the nic.
All VM:s now where either in mode pause or down, but I could not get
any started to I just powered all of them down.
Now everything DC-wise it up and running again still several VM:s can
not be started. Out of about 30 vm;s I have only managed to get one up
and running.
The following it written to the engine.log when trying to fire up a
non-working VM.

I was on Ovirt 3.4.0-0.13.rc.el6 and right or wrong I decided to
upgrade the engine to a released version and I'm now on 3.4.0-1.el6, it
however made no difference
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

oVirt italian translation
by Giorgio Bersano
Hi oVirt UX team,
we (Gianluca and me) are slowly progressing on the job of having
italian as a fully translated language in oVirt.
One of our problems is that we don't know what will be the outcome of
our work until an italian embedding release will be available.
Probably the first one will not be something to be really proud.
To have a prototipe to get a glance of how it is now would be really
useful, don't care about general quality.
So I asked Sandro if could it be possible to have italian translation
in the 3.5RC release at the point where it is now (almost 35% done)
and then remove it from the official 3.5 release but he said it is not
on his possibilities.
An alternative he suggested was to have a "special" 3.5 development
branch (something like ovirt-3.5-ita) just to give us the opportunity
to get a taste of what it would be in the end.
Please tell us what do you think about.
Thanks, Giorgio.

cancel ticket in ovirt-engine
by mhd
hi....
my scenario: i have multi server installed rhev or ovirt-engine and one
sever installed rhevm or ovirt-engine ..... and i bought thin client which
connect by spice to rhev server and controll them...
i can use thin client for connect to rhev server but the problem every
connect i should make new ticket for spice protocol....
when i run vm by rhevm interface the log for vm in this path
:/var/log/libvirt/qemu/vmname.log is seem run qemu command and enable

Ovirt SSL Question
by Punit Dambiwal
Hi All,
I have one question regarding the SSL settings in Ovirt....let me explain
my environment first :-
1. Ovirt engine :- mgmt.3linux.com
2. Standalone websocket proxy :- web-proxy.3linux.com
3. Our Own Portal :- portal.3linux.com
We have the above architecture...we fetch the VM console from the websocket
proxy to our own portal through API....because still we are using
selfsigned certificate...we need to trust the certificate every
time,whenever we open the VM console... (https://<web-proxy.3linux.com
>:<port>)
When we initiate the VM console through our own web portal the url (
https://portal.3linux.com/content/ovirt/noVNC/vm-console.php?id=6e0caf73-...
we accept the SSL certificate with https://<web-proxy.3linux.com>:<port>
....then it will open as expected but if we didn't accept the certificate
manually...then it through failed to connect:1006 error...
We don't want that every time end user will accept the certificate
manually...as our link to open VM console is different then webproxy....
Now we want to replace the self signed certificate with valid SSL....can
any one tell me where we need to put the certificates and how to generate
the CSR for them and how many SSL we need to purchase to make this thing
workable without accepting the certificate everytime....
Thanks,
Punit

Detecting already existing VM on the attached LUN.
by santosh
Hi,
I had a LUN(say L1) from NetApp storage array attached to RHEV iSCSI
Storage Domain. I had couple of VMs on this storage domain.
I had destroyed this storage domain when LUN became inaccessible for
some reasons. Then I created new Storage Doamin with different LUN(say L2)
and created couple of more VMs on it. Now first LUN (L1) is available.
In this scenario, I have following two questions -
1) Can I attach L1 directly?
2) If I can, will I be able to access VMs present on L1?
Thanks, Santosh.
