Hello, I tried several times to upgrade my ovirt-engine 3.5.5 to 3.6. Every time the setup stops at updating the DB-schema. The log revealed when this happpens: The setup ist complaining about a duplicated key - here is the part of the log. Of course there is only one network in the interface. Can anybody help me getting a solution?

cloud-init and sealing of template
by Gianluca Cecchi 04 Dec '15

04 Dec '15

Hello, is it correct that even if I use cloud-init I have to seal my candidate VM before making it a template? In that case what is the correct approach to pre-seal a CentOS 7 VM? Also, for operating system like Fedora >=20 and/or RHEL/CentOS 7 should I unconfigure NetworkManager before sealing them, using classic network service, or what? Thanks in advance, Gianluca

Upgrading engine 3.5.5-1.el6 to latest patches issue (and resolved)
by Scott Worthington 02 Dec '15

02 Dec '15

Hello, This is just an informational e-mail for others who are updating their 3.5 systems on CentOS 6.7 who may experience the same issue that I experienced. I am upgrading a stand alone 3.5.5-1.el6 engine on CentOS 6.7 (no High Availability cruft) to the latest patches just recently released. The DWH and report engine are also installed on this same stand alone system. I did a 'yum update' and the following was downloaded & updated: Dec 02 08:26:26 Updated: postgresql-libs-8.4.20-4.el6_7.x86_64 Dec 02 08:26:27 Updated: ovirt-engine-lib-3.5.6.2-1.el6.noarch Dec 02 08:26:28 Updated: ovirt-engine-setup-base-3.5.6.2-1.el6.noarch Dec 02 08:26:29 Updated: ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-ovirt-engine-common-3.5.6.2-1.el6.noarch Dec 02 08:26:30 Updated: ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-websocket-proxy-3.5.6.2-1.el6.noarch Dec 02 08:26:31 Updated: ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-ovirt-engine-3.5.6.2-1.el6.noarch Dec 02 08:26:33 Updated: postgresql-8.4.20-4.el6_7.x86_64 Dec 02 08:26:35 Updated: postgresql-server-8.4.20-4.el6_7.x86_64 Dec 02 08:26:35 Updated: ovirt-engine-setup-3.5.6.2-1.el6.noarch Dec 02 08:26:36 Updated: ovirt-engine-websocket-proxy-3.5.6.2-1.el6.noarch Dec 02 08:26:36 Updated: ovirt-engine-extensions-api-impl-3.5.6.2-1.el6.noarch Dec 02 08:26:37 Updated: ovirt-engine-sdk-python-3.5.6.0-1.el6.noarch Dec 02 08:26:41 Updated: ovirt-guest-tools-iso-3.5-8.fc22.noarch Dec 02 08:26:50 Updated: 1:java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.37-1.13.9.4.el6_7.x86_64 Here is where I ran into an issue.. Running an 'engine-setup' to load the latest patches caused this: [ INFO ] Cleaning async tasks and compensations [ INFO ] Checking the Engine database consistency [ INFO ] Stage: Transaction setup [ INFO ] Stopping dwh service [ INFO ] Stopping reports service [ INFO ] Stopping engine service [ INFO ] Stopping ovirt-fence-kdump-listener service [ INFO ] Stopping websocket-proxy service [ ERROR ] dwhd is currently running.

In fact, there was nothing obviously 'ovirt' related running. To get the "engine-setup" to work, I thought that perhaps something was stuck running. So I did... service ovirt-engine stop service ovirt-engine-dwhd stop service ovirt-engine-reportsd stop service ovirt-engine-websocket-proxy stop Followed by... engine-setup ...and still got the error that the DWH was still running. Not to waste time, I figured that a reboot might clear and/or reset out some process that I am not aware of. I did not want anything ovirt engine related starting up, so I examined what was running on start up: chkconfig --list | grep ovirt | grep on Which returned (sorry for wraps, it's thunderbird): ovirt-engine 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off ovirt-engine-dwhd 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off ovirt-engine-reportsd 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off ovirt-fence-kdump-listener 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off ovirt-websocket-proxy 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off I turned these off on boot: chkconfig ovirt-engine off chkconfig ovirt-engine-dwhd off chkconfig ovirt-engine-reportsd off chkconfig ovirt-fence-kdump-listener off chkconfig ovirt-websocket-proxy off Rebooted the server, logged back in, and 'engine-setup' ran flawlessly. After the upgrade, I turned the services back on for the next reboot: chkconfig ovirt-engine on chkconfig ovirt-engine-dwhd on chkconfig ovirt-engine-reportsd on chkconfig ovirt-fence-kdump-listener on chkconfig ovirt-websocket-proxy on Hope that helps someone else.
