Restart hosted-engine However online reading says that this won't work because the storage domain= info is stored in different places. Is there a procedure or anything for = how to do this?

cloud-init issues on fedora ovirt
by Pat Pierson 16 Sep '14

16 Sep '14

I am running ovirt 3.4.3 on a Fedora 19 manager and have 1 node running Fedora 19 as well. I am attempting to get cloud-init to work on a CentOS VM but I am running into issues. I can see where in the log it mounts /dev/sr1 to /tmp/tmp_random_location and where it reads the meta-data.json and user_data from that location but after it unmounts it moves on to /var/lib/cloud/data/instance-id and returns "No instance datasource found! Likely bad things to come!" Has anyone seen this before? Am I missing something? -- Patrick Pierson

Gluster command [<UNKNOWN>] failed on server
by Nathan Stratton 16 Sep '14

16 Sep '14

I gave up on trying to import my gluster config into ovirt so I tried a fresh install and just set the gluster peers without creating any volumes. However none of my hosts will activate, when I try I get: Gluster command [<UNKNOWN>] failed on server virt01a. The only thing I see in vdsm.log is: Thread-3542::DEBUG::2014-09-14 14:35:26,946::__init__::467::jsonrpc.JsonRpcServer::(_serveRequest) Calling 'GlusterHost.list' in bridge with {} Nothing else, can anyone point me into the right direction on how to debug this with so little information? ><> nathan stratton | vp technology | broadsoft, inc | +1-240-404-6580 | www.broadsoft.com

Can't understand Template Sub Version
by John Xue 16 Sep '14

16 Sep '14

Hi, All I'm using oVirt Engine Version: 3.4.3-1.el6, but I can't understand this function. I have 3 question: 1 How to change a vm to use other template sub version? I don't want to build a new vm from new template version. 2 How to update a pool to use other template sub version? I'm using non latest version, and shutdown all vm of this pool, but I still can't change template version. 3 How to create a pool with disable stateless function? In the property of template vm, I'm sure I don't enable "stateless". But in the testing, I found all the vm are stateless vm. How to disable it, or I'll lost all config and personal data. Thank you very much! -- Regards, John Xue

Move ovirt-engine to a new server
by Neil 16 Sep '14

16 Sep '14

Hi guys, Please could someone try assist me. I'm starting to lose hair over this :) I'm trying to migrate my current engine to a new host with the same OS and hostname. Centos 6.5, ovirt-engine-3.4.3-1.el6.noarch I've installed all the packages, I run engine-setup and go through the options keeping the details the same as before, I then restore my config back to /etc/ovirt-engine as well as to /etc/pki/ovirt-engine, but when it gets to trying to restore my database I get the following error... [root@backup dbscripts]# ./restore.sh -u postgres -f /mnt/fw-ovirt-backup/engine-db-2014-09-15-16-48.sql psql: FATAL: Ident authentication failed for user "postgres" Database engine does not exist, please create an empty database named engine. [root@backup dbscripts]# su - postgres -c "psql -d template1 -c 'drop database engine;'" DROP DATABASE [root@backup dbscripts]# su - postgres -c "psql -d template1 -c 'create database engine owner engine;'" CREATE DATABASE [root@backup dbscripts]# ./restore.sh -u postgres -f /mnt/fw-ovirt-backup/engine-db-2014-09-15-16-48.sql psql: FATAL: Ident authentication failed for user "postgres" Database engine does not exist, please create an empty database named engine. or even [root@backup dbscripts]# ./restore.sh -u engine -f /mnt/fw-ovirt-backup/engine-db-2014-09-15-16-48.sql psql: FATAL: Ident authentication failed for user "engine" Database engine does not exist, please create an empty database named engine. This is my pg_hba.conf as well.. # TYPE DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD # "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only local all all ident host engine engine 0.0.0.0/0 md5 host engine engine ::0/0 md5 # IPv4 local connections: host all all 127.0.0.1/32 ident # IPv6 local connections: host all all ::1/128 ident I've done this a couple time before and haven't encountered this issue, so it seems rather odd. Thanks. Regards. Neil Wilson.
