Re: [ovirt-users] Unable to import hosted engine storage domain in 3.6RC with FC storage
by Elad Ben Aharon
Hi Christopher,
Thanks for raising the issue. It sounds like the issue you are referring to
is related to the fix of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1261996
.
Adding some more people who should be involved.

You can help us by testing existing online images ensuring they works with
cloud-init
or creating one yourself and report your success to devel(a)ovirt.org.
We'll be happy to upload the images once these are ready.
Do you like Debian and do you have some programming skill?
Help us getting VDSM running on it! We started releasing highly
experimental packages and it's a good time for giving them a try.
You can follow the progress here: http://www.ovirt.org/VDSM_on_Debian

VM's in wrong state
by Johan Kooijman
Hi all,
Since a couple of days I have one node with non responsive VM's. The node
is OK and the VM's are working actually, just show the wrong state.
I'll find out why it happened, but for now I need to correct the state. Any
ideas on how to do that?

migration procedures
by Brett Stevens
Hi Guys.
We've been using a single instance all in one ovirt 3.5 with local storage
with quite some success for about 6 months. We are a small school and have
managed to secure some funding for a decent setup 2 x compute and 2 x
storage clusters. I want a separate, non vm manager (so as to provide a
host for gluster arbiter nodes ) along with some other functions (nagiso
etc)
So my real question, has anyone migrated a similar system? any ideas on how
to get the current vms over to the new infrastructure. I can do shutdown
and move, but it would be great if I can join the two and live migrate
somehow.
I'd like to use 3.6 when available if that is possible.
thanks

Re: [ovirt-users] Admin <at> internal inlog problems with clean install 3.6RC

I'm having the same problem with the latest packages for 3.6 RC. I've
tried reinstalling a number of times, setting up with and without an
answer file, and I always get a login denied error.

"user unlock" options with multiple different dates, passwords of

happening during the middle of a hosted-engine setup, which throws
everything off. I've also done clean re-installs a number of times.
Early last week, when the release candidate first came out, I did not
have this issue. I was able to complete the install without any problems.
Has anyone found a way to get around this if it starts happening?

So I got around issue with 'Enable Gluster Service' missing from cluster
diagram. I am trying to create a new data center and remove previously
created gluster hosts. However, I get the above error. I have seen posts

Is there a way to forcefully remove?
Thank you.

Questions about 3.6RC
by jaumotte, styve
Hi everybody,
We have planned to migrate from xen open source to ovirt and we study the differences between 3.5.4 version and 3.6. I have some questions about this differences :
- In 3.6RC, we don't see anymore the HostedEngine virtual machine in ovirt. My install is correct or this feature is not available anymore ?
- In 3.6RC, my windows virtual machine status show an orange exlamation point which indicates " Actual operating system type differs from the configuration ". I don't know what is wrong, the operating system is correct and my vm works well.
Thanks for your answers,
S.J
