soft negative affinity
by Kapetanakis Giannis 22 Apr '15

22 Apr '15

Hi, Can someone comment on this? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1207255 I've defined a soft negative affinity group for two VMs. To my understanding if the there are at least 2 nodes available in the cluster then the VMs SHOULD start on different nodes. This does not happen. They start on the same node. If I make it hard then it works. However I don't want to make it hard since if there is only one node available in the cluster then one vm will stay down. regards, Giannis

Options not being passed fence_ipmilan, Ovirt3.5 on Centos 7.1 hosts
by Mike Lindsay 22 Apr '15

22 Apr '15

Hi All, I have a bit of an issue with a new install of Ovirt 3.5 (our 3.4 cluster is working fine) in a 4 node cluster. When I test fencing (or cause a kernal panic triggering a fence) the fencing fails. On investigation it appears that the fencing options are not being passed to the fencing script (fence_ipmilan in this case): Fence options under GUI(as entered in the gui): lanplus, ipport=623, power_wait=4, privlvl=operator from vdsm.log on the fence proxy node: Thread-818296::DEBUG::2015-04-21 12:39:39,136::API::1209::vds::(fenceNode) fenceNode(addr=x.x.x.x,port=,agent=ipmilan,user=stonith,passwd=XXXX,action=status,secure=False,options= power_wait=4 Thread-818296::DEBUG::2015-04-21 12:39:39,137::utils::739::root::(execCmd) /usr/sbin/fence_ipmilan (cwd None) Thread-818296::DEBUG::2015-04-21 12:39:39,295::utils::759::root::(execCmd) FAILED: <err> = 'Failed: Unable to obtain correct plug status or plug is not available\n\n\n';

oVirt 3.5 problem with gluster, can't set the group and can't find ovirt packages
by Lars Nielsen 22 Apr '15

22 Apr '15

Hey again :) I have a problem with ovirt 3.5. I am trying to setup oVirt 3.5 and using gluster following this guide: http://community.redhat.com/blog/2014/10/up-and-running-with-ovirt-3-5/ However when I run the install command: yum install -y ovirt-hosted-engine-setup I get the output: No package overt-hosted-engine-setup available Error nothing to do. But I have run: yum localinstall -y http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release35.rpm I get no error, and I have checked the log files. And when I run this command: gluster volume set engine group virt I get this output: Unable to open file ‘/var/lib/glusterd/groups/virt’. Error: No such file or directory Hope some one can help. Thanks in advance - Lars Nielsen

storage issue's with oVirt 3.5.1 + Nexenta NFS
by Maikel vd Mosselaar 22 Apr '15

22 Apr '15

Hi, We are running ovirt 3.5.1 with 3 nodes and seperate engine. All on CentOS 6.6: 3 x nodes 1 x engine 1 x storage nexenta with NFS For multiple weeks we are experiencing issues of our nodes that cannot access the storage at random moments (atleast thats what the nodes think). When the nodes are complaining about a unavailable storage then the load rises up to +200 on all three nodes, this causes that all running VMs are unaccessible. During this process oVirt event viewer shows some i/o storage error messages, when this happens random VMs get paused and will not be resumed anymore (this almost happens every time but not all the VMs get paused). During the event we tested the accessibility from the nodes to the storage and it looks like it is working normal, at least we can do a normal "ls" on the storage without any delay of showing the contents. We tried multiple things that we thought it causes this issue but nothing worked so far. * rebooting storage / nodes / engine. * disabling offsite rsync backups. * moved the biggest VMs with highest load to different platform outside of oVirt. * checked the wsize and rsize on the nfs mounts, storage and nodes are correct according to the "NFS troubleshooting page" on ovirt.org. The environment is running in production so we are not free to test everything. I can provide log files if needed. Kind Regards, Maikel

Move/Migrate Storage Domain to new devices
by Dael Maselli 22 Apr '15

22 Apr '15

Hi, I have a data storage domain that use one FC LUN. I need to move all data to a new storage server. I tried by move single disks to a new storage domain but some cannot be moved, I think because they are thin-cloned by template. When I worked with LVM I use to do a simple pvmove leaving the VG intact, is there something similar (online or in maintenance) in oVirt? Can I just do a pvmove from the SPM host o it's going to destroy everything? Thank you very much. Regards, Dael Maselli. -- ___________________________________________________________________ Dael Maselli --- INFN-LNF Computing Service -- +39.06.9403.2214 ___________________________________________________________________ * http://www.lnf.infn.it/~dmaselli/ * ___________________________________________________________________ Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch ___________________________________________________________________
