We deploy template with initial run parameter Hostname, IP Address, Gateway and DNS. but when we power ON initial, run parameter is not getting pushed to inside the vm.

Hi, OK thanks! I saw that after upgrading to 4.0.5 from 4.0.4 the DB already dropped with around 500MB directly and is now at 2GB smaller.

Unable to backend oVirt with Cinder

------=_Part_51316288_608143832.1472587678781 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I've got Cinder configured and pointed at Ceph for it's back end storage. I can run ceph commands on the cinder machine and cinder is configured for noauth and I've also tried it with Keystone for auth. I can run various cinder commands and it'll return as expected. When I configure it in oVirt it'll add the external provider fine, but when I go to create a disk it doesn't populate the volume type field, it's just empty. The corresponding command for cinder: cinder type-list and cinder type-show <name> returns fine and it is public. Ovirt and Cinder are on the same host so it isn't a firewall issue.

It should not take a full hour to migrate as we already made incremental synchronization with the current system but better keep some margin. The system will then take over delivery of the mails but might be a bit slow at first as it needs to reindex all the archived mails (which might take a few hours). To manage your subscriptions and delivery settings you can do this easily on the much nicer web interface (https://lists.ovirt.org) There is a notion of account so you don't need to login separately for each ML.= You can Sign In using Fedora, GitHub or Google or create a local account if you prefer. Please keep in mind signing in with a different method would create separate accounts (which cannot be merged at the moment). But you can easily link your account to other authentication methods in your settings (click on you name in the up-right corner -> Account -> Account Connections). As for the original mail archives, because the previous system did not have stable URLs, we cannot create mappings to the new pages. We decided to keep the old archives around on the same URL (/pipermail), so the Internet links would still work fine. Hope you'd be happy with the new system. \_o< --AUFHCWPQQknM84fF2kF4uGjIv4blC9bMv-- --IfGqXrbgT9wNNdIsvS8kI8WdhEQHlgkiq Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEcpcqg+UmRT3yiF+BVen596wcRD8FAlmwx0MACgkQVen596wc RD9LTQ/+LtUncsq9K8D/LX8wqUTd6VyPwAD5UnAk5c3H/2tmyVA0u7FIfhEyPsXs Z//LE9FEneTDqDVRi1Dw9I54K0ZwxPBemi71dXfwgBI7Ay0ezkbLWrA168Mt9spE tHAODEuxPt2to2aqaS4ujogrkp/gvEP8ILoxPEqoTPCJ/eDTPAu/I1a2JzjMPK3n 2BBS6D8z0TLAf7w1n72TsgX2QzJW57ig/0HELyjvat2/K8V3HSrkwiKlsdULQDWe zB+aMde7r6UoyVKHqlu4asTl2tU/lGZ+e31Hd9Bnx1/oZOJdzslGOhEo9Qoz6763 AHWU9LKiK4NtxYHj2UQTWhndr8PiTtTmR73eIDmkb0cuRXxzjl9VQbwYJ0Kbrmfp attTqpc2CnEojTNXUUNSmNxotZoYXZiX8ZvjPfSgRVr15TUYujzlOfG+lUynbQMV 9rQ9/m58wgwYUymMpOIsRGaIcAKzjm+WpuuVnO+bS2AfmcBkGMQRoIhfV+3SkS8q kT9cDXgcDZOzVFcnZZB4EjbycMcPgZDcoHxU88VdYH+jFJYvvb21esgswVF/wJ2Z uEI/chp4+ADaQhl8ehZNWMSZq125v6SeirPhBNgLG7zFVZI1S9Tm/6qFmH+ajQY7 nCk1X9HZlB1ubex1X+HibRz9QKOilkMgkADyJ4yMDckwYj93sx0= =l6uN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --IfGqXrbgT9wNNdIsvS8kI8WdhEQHlgkiq--

vdsClient is removed and replaced by vdsm-client
by Irit Goihman 16 Apr '18

16 Apr '18

Hi All, vdsClient will be removed from master branch today. It is using XMLRPC protocol which has been deprecated and replaced by JSON-RPC. A new client for vdsm was introduced in 4.1: vdsm-client. This is a simple client that uses JSON-RPC protocol which was introduced in ovirt 3.5. The client is not aware of the available methods and parameters, and you should consult the schema [1] in order to construct the desired command. Future version should parse the schema and provide online help. If you're using vdsClient, we will be happy to assist you in migrating to the new vdsm client. *vdsm-client usage:* vdsm-client [-h] [-a ADDRESS] [-p PORT] [--unsecure] [--timeout TIMEOUT] [-f FILE] namespace method [name=value [name=value] ...] Invoking simple methods: # vdsm-client Host getVMList ['b3f6fa00-b315-4ad4-8108-f73da817b5c5'] For invoking methods with many or complex parameters, you can read the parameters from a JSON format file: # vdsm-client Lease info -f lease.json where lease.json file content is: { "lease": { "sd_id": "75ab40e3-06b1-4a54-a825-2df7a40b93b2", "lease_id": "b3f6fa00-b315-4ad4-8108-f73da817b5c5" } } It is also possible to read parameters from standard input, creating complex parameters interactively: # cat <<EOF | vdsm-client Lease info -f - { "lease": { "sd_id": "75ab40e3-06b1-4a54-a825-2df7a40b93b2", "lease_id": "b3f6fa00-b315-4ad4-8108-f73da817b5c5" } } EOF *Constructing a command from vdsm schema:* Let's take VM.getStats as an example. This is the entry in the schema: VM.getStats: added: '3.1' description: Get statistics about a running virtual machine. params: - description: The UUID of the VM name: vmID type: *UUID return: description: An array containing a single VmStats record type: - *VmStats namespace: VM method name: getStats params: vmID The vdsm-client command is: # vdsm-client VM getStats vmID=b3f6fa00-b315-4ad4-8108-f73da817b5c5 *Invoking getVdsCaps command:* # vdsm-client Host getCapabilities Please consult vdsm-client help and man page for further details and options.

Passing VLAN trunk to VM
by Simon Vincent 26 Mar '18

26 Mar '18

Is it possible to pass multiple VLANs to a VM (pfSense) using a single virtual NIC? All my existing oVirt networks are setup as a single tagged VLAN. I know this didn't used to be supported but wondered if this has changed. My other option is to pass each VLAN as a separate NIC to the VM however if I needed to add a new VLAN I would have to add a new interface and reboot the VM as hot-add of NICs is not supported by pfSense.

oVIRT 4.1 / iSCSI Multipathing
by Devin Acosta 05 Mar '18

05 Mar '18

I am using the latest release of oVIRT 4.1.3, and I am connecting a Dell Compelent SAN that has 2 fault domains each on a separate VLAN that I have attached to oVIRT. From what I understand I am suppose to go into “iSCSI Multipathing” option and add a BOND of the iSCSI interfaces. I have done this selecting the 2 logical networks together for iSCSI. I notice that there is an option below to select Storage Targets but if I select the storage targets below with the logical networks the the cluster goes crazy and appears to be mad. Storage, Nodes, and everything goes offline even thought I have NFS also attached to the cluster. How should this best be configured. What we notice that happens is when the server reboots it seems to log into the SAN correctly but according the the Dell SAN it is only logged into once controller. So only pulls both fault domains from a single controller. Please Advise. Devin

when creating VMs, I don't want hosted_storage to be an option
by Mike Farnam 09 Feb '18

Hi All - Is that a way to mark hosted_storage somehow so that it’s not available to add new VMs to? Right now it’s the default storage domain when adding a VM. At the least, I’d like to make another storage domain the default. Is there a way to do this? Thanks

qemu-kvm images corruption
by Nicolas Ecarnot 06 Feb '18

06 Feb '18

TL;DR: How to avoid images corruption? Hello, On two of our old 3.6 DC, a recent series of VM migrations lead to some issues : - I'm putting a host into maintenance mode - most of the VM are migrating nicely - one remaining VM never migrates, and the logs are showing : * engine.log : "...VM has been paused due to I/O error..." * vdsm.log : "...Improbable extension request for volume..." After digging amongst the RH BZ tickets, I saved the day by : - stopping the VM - lvchange -ay the adequate /dev/... - qemu-img check [-r all] /rhev/blahblah - lvchange -an... - boot the VM - enjoy! Yesterday this worked for a VM where only one error occurred on the qemu image, and the repair was easily done by qemu-img. Today, facing the same issue on another VM, it failed because the errors were very numerous, and also because of this message : [...] Rebuilding refcount structure ERROR writing refblock: No space left on device qemu-img: Check failed: No space left on device [...] The PV/VG/LV are far from being full, so I guess I don't where to look at. I tried many ways to solve it but I'm not comfortable at all with qemu images, corruption and solving, so I ended up exporting this VM (to an NFS export domain), importing it into another DC : this had the side effect to use qemu-img convert from qcow2 to qcow2, and (maybe?????) to solve some errors??? I also copied it into another qcow2 file with the same qemu-img convert way, but it is leading to another clean qcow2 image without errors. I saw that on 4.x some bugs are fixed about VM migrations, but this is not the point here. I checked my SANs, my network layers, my blades, the OS (CentOS 7.2) of my hosts, but I see nothing special. The real reason behind my message is not to know how to repair anything, rather than to understand what could have lead to this situation? Where to keep a keen eye? -- Nicolas ECARNOT

[vdsm] status update: running containers alongside VMs
by Francesco Romani 05 Jan '18

05 Jan '18

Hi everyone, I'm happy to share some progress about the former "convirt"[1] project, which aims to let Vdsm containers alongside VMs, on bare metal. In the last couple of months I kept updating the patch series, which is approaching the readiness to be merged in Vdsm. Please read through this mail to see what the patchset can do now, how you could try it *now*, even before it is merged. Everyone is invited to share thoughts and ideas about how this effort could evolve. This will be a long mail; I will amend, enhance and polish the content and make a blog post (on https://mojaves.github.io) to make it easier to consume and to have some easy-to-find documentation. Later on the same content will appear also on the oVirt blog. Happy hacking! +++ # How to try how the experimental container support for Vdsm. Vdsm is gaining *experimental* support to run containers alongside VMs. Vdsm had since long time the ability to manage VMs which run containers, and recently gained support for [atomic guests](http://www.projectatomic.io/blog/2015/01/running-ovirt-guest-agent-as-privileged-container/). With the new support we are describing, you will be able to manage containers with the same, proven infrastructure that let you manage VMs. This feature is currently being developed and it is still not merged in the Vdsm codebase, so some extra work is needed if you want to try it out. We aiming to merge it in the oVirt 4.1.z cycle. ## What works, aka what to expect The basic features are expected to work: 1. Run any docker image on the public docker registry 2. Make the container accessible from the outside (aka not just from localhost) 3. Use file-based storage for persistent volumes ## What does not yet work, aka what NOT to expect Few things are planned and currently under active development: 1. Monitoring. Engine will not get any update from the container besides "VM" status (Up, Down...) One important drawback is that you will not be told the IP of the container from Engine, you will need to connect to the Vdsm host to discover it using standard docker tools. 2. Proper network integration. Some steps still need manual intervention 3. Stability and recovery - it's pre-alpha software after all! :) ## 1. Introduction and prerequisites Trying out container support affects only the host and the Vdsm. Besides add few custom properties (totally safe and supported since early 3.z), there are zero changes required to the DB and to Engine. Nevertheless, we recommend to dedicate one oVirt 4.y environment, or at least one 4.y host, to try out the container feature. To get started, first thing you need is to setup a vanilla oVirt 4.y installation. We will need to make changes to the Vdsm and to the Vdsm host, so hosted engine and/or oVirt node may add extra complexity, better to avoid them at the moment. The reminder of this tutorial assumes you are using two hosts, one for Vdsm (will be changed) and one for Engine (will require zero changes); furthermore, we assume the Vdsm host is running on CentOS 7.y. We require: - one test host for Vdsm. This host need to have one NIC dedicated to containers. We will use the [docker macvlan driver](https://raesene.github.io/blog/2016/07/23/Docker-MacVLAN/), so this NIC *must not be* part of one bridge. - docker >= 1.12 - oVirt >= 4.0.5 (Vdsm >= 4.18.15) - CentOS >= 7.2 Docker >= 1.12 is avaialable for download [here](https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/linux/centos/) Caveats: 1. docker from official rpms conflicts con docker from CentOS, and has a different package name: docker-engine vs docker. Please note that the kubernetes package from CentOS, for example, require 'docker', not 'docker-engine'. 2. you may want to replace the default service file [with this one](https://github.com/mojaves/convirt/blob/master/patches/centos72/system… and to use this [sysconfig file](https://github.com/mojaves/convirt/blob/master/patches/centos72/syste…. Here I'm just adding the storage options docker requires, much like the CentOS docker is configured. Configuring docker like this can save you some troubleshooting, especially if you had docker from CentOS installed on the testing box. ## 2. Patch Vdsm to support containers You need to patch and rebuild Vdsm. Fetch [this patch](https://github.com/mojaves/convirt/blob/master/patches/vdsm/4.18.15.… and apply it against Vdsm 4.18.15.1. Vdsm 4.18.15.{1,2,...} are supported as well. Rebuild Vdsm and reinstall on your box. [centos 7.2 packages are here](https://github.com/mojaves/convirt/tree/master/rpms/centos72) Make sure you install the Vdsm command line client (vdsm-cli) Restart *both* Vdsm and Supervdsm, make sure Engine still works flawlessly with patched Vdsm. This ensure that no regression is introduced, and that your environment can run VMs just as before. Now we can proceed adding the container support. start docker: # systemctl start docker-engine (optional) # systemctl enable docker-engine Restart Vdsm again # systemctl restart vdsm Now we can check if Vdsm detects docker, so you can use it: still on the same Vdsm host, run $ vdsClient -s 0 getVdsCaps | grep containers containers = ['docker', 'fake'] This means this Vdsm can run containers using 'docker' and 'fake' runtimes. Ignore the 'fake' runtime; as the name suggests, is a test driver, kinda like /dev/null. Now we need to make sure the host network configuration is fine. ### 2.1. Configure the docker network for Vdsm PLEASE NOTE that the suggested network configuration assumes that * you have one network, `ovirtmgmt` (the default one) you use for everything * you have one Vdsm host with at least two NICs, one bound to the `ovirtmgmt` network, and one spare _This step is not yet automated by Vdsm_, so manual action is needed; Vdsm will take care of this automatically in the future. You can use [this helper script](https://github.com/mojaves/convirt/blob/master/patches/vdsm/cont-se…, which reuses the Vdsm libraries. Make sure you have patched Vdsm to support container before to use it. Let's review what the script needs: # ./cont-setup-net -h usage: cont-setup-net [-h] [--name [NAME]] [--bridge [BRIDGE]] [--interface [INTERFACE]] [--gateway [GATEWAY]] [--subnet [SUBNET]] [--mask [MASK]] optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit --name [NAME] network name to use --bridge [BRIDGE] bridge to use --interface [INTERFACE] interface to use --gateway [GATEWAY] address of the gateway --subnet [SUBNET] subnet to use --mask [MASK] netmask to use So we need to feed --name, --interface, --gateway, --subnet and optionally --mask (default, /24, is often fine). For my case the default mask was indeed fine, so I used the script like this: # ./cont-setup-net --name ovirtmgmt --interface enp3s0 --gateway 192.168.1.1 --subnet 192.168.1.0 Thhis is the output I got: DEBUG:virt.containers.runtime:configuring runtime 'docker' DEBUG:virt.containers.command:* calling ['/bin/docker', 'network', 'inspect', 'ovirtmgmt'] Error: No such network: ovirtmgmt DEBUG:virt.containers.command:* called ['/bin/docker', 'network', 'inspect', 'ovirtmgmt'] DEBUG:virt.containers.runtime.Docker:config: cannot load 'ovirtmgmt', ignored DEBUG:virt.containers.command:* calling ['/bin/docker', 'network', 'create', '-d', 'macvlan', '--subnet=192.168.1.0/24', '--gateway=192.168.1.1', '--ip-range=192.168.1.0/24', '-o', 'parent=enp3s0', 'ovirtmgmt'] DEBUG:virt.containers.command:* called ['/bin/docker', 'network', 'create', '-d', 'macvlan', '--subnet=192.168.1.0/24', '--gateway=192.168.1.1', '--ip-range=192.168.1.0/24', '-o', 'parent=enp3s0', 'ovirtmgmt'] DEBUG:virt.containers.runtime:configuring runtime 'fake' You can clearly see what the script did, and why it needed the root privileges. Let's deoublecheck using the docker tools: # docker network ls NETWORK ID NAME DRIVER SCOPE 91535f3425a8 bridge bridge local d42f7e5561b5 host host local 621ab6dd49b1 none null local f4b88e4a67eb ovirtmgmt macvlan local # docker network inspect ovirtmgmt [ { "Name": "ovirtmgmt", "Id": "f4b88e4a67ebb7886ec74073333d613b1893272530cae4d407c95ab587c5fea1", "Scope": "local", "Driver": "macvlan", "EnableIPv6": false, "IPAM": { "Driver": "default", "Options": {}, "Config": [ { "Subnet": "192.168.1.0/24", "IPRange": "192.168.1.0/24", "Gateway": "192.168.1.1" } ] }, "Internal": false, "Containers": {}, "Options": { "parent": "enp3s0" }, "Labels": {} } ] Looks good! the host configuration is completed. Let's move to the Engine side. ## 3. Configure Engine As mentioned above, we need now to configure Engine. This boils down to: Add a few custom properties for VMs: In case you were already using custom properties, you need to amend the command line to not overwrite your existing ones. # engine-config -s UserDefinedVMProperties='volumeMap=^[a-zA-Z_-]+:[a-zA-Z_-]+$;containerImage=^[a-zA-Z]+(://|)[a-zA-Z]+$;containerType=^(docker|rkt)$' --cver=4.0 It is worth stressing that while the variables are container-specific, the VM custom properties are totally inuntrusive and old concept in oVirt, so this step is totally safe. Now restart Engine to let it use the new variables: # systemctl restart ovirt-engine The next step is actually configure one "container VM" and run it. ## 4. Create the container "VM" To finally run a container, you start creating a VM much like you always did, with few changes 1. most of the hardware-related configuration isn't relevant for container "VMs", besides cpu share and memory limits; this will be better documented in the future; unneeded configuration will just be ignored 2. You need to set some custom properties for your container "VM". Those are actually needed to enable the container flow, and they are documented in the next section. You *need* to set at least `containerType` and `containerImage`. ### 4.2. Custom variables for container support The container support needs some custom properties to be properly configured: 1. `containerImage` (*needed* to enable the container system). Just select the target image you want to run. You can use the standard syntax of the container runtimes. 2. `containerType` (*needed* to enable the container system). Selects the container runtime you want to use. All the available options are always showed. Please note that unavailable container options are not yet grayed out. If you *do not* have rkt support on your host, you still can select it, but it won't work. 3. `volumeMap` key:value like. You can map one "VM" disk (key) to one container volume (value), to have persistent storage. Only file-based storage is supported. Example configuration: `containerImage = redis` `containerType = docker` `volumeMap = vda:data` (this may not be needed, and the volume label is just for illustrative purposes) ### 4.2. A little bit of extra work: preload the images on the Vdsm host This step is not needed by the flow, and will be handled by oVirt in the future. The issue is how the container image are handled. They are stored by the container management system (rkt, docker) on each host, and they are not pre-downloaded. To shorten the duration of the first boot, you are advised to pre-download the image(s) you want to run. For example ## on the Vdsm host you want to use with containers # docker pull redis ## 5. Run the container "VM" You are now all set to run your "VM" using oVirt Engine, just like any existing VM. Some actions doesn't make sense for a container "VM", like live migration. Engine won't stop you to try to do those actions, but they will fail gracefully using the standard errors. ## 6. Next steps What to expect from this project in the future? For the integration with Vdsm, we want to fix the existing known issues, most notably: * add proper monitoring/reporting of the container health * ensure proper integration of the container image store with oVirt storage management * streamline the network configuration What is explicitely excluded yet is any Engine change. This is a Vdsm-only change at the moment, so fixing the following is currently unplanned: * First and foremost, Engine will not distinguish between real VMs and container VMs. Actions unavailable to container will not be hidden from UI. Same for monitoring and configuration data, which will be ignored. * Engine is NOT aware of the volumes one container can use. You must inspect and do the mapping manually. * Engine is NOT aware of the available container runtimes. You must select it carefully Proper integration with Engine may be added in the future once this feature exits from the experimental/provisional stage. Thanks for reading, make sure to share your thoughts on the oVirt mailing lists! +++ [1] we keep calling it that way _only_ internally, because it's a short name we are used to. After the merge/once we release it, we will use a different name, like "vdsm-containers" or something like it. -- Francesco Romani Red Hat Engineering Virtualization R & D Phone: 8261328 IRC: fromani

slow performance with export storage on glusterfs

I am using oVirt and RHV, both instalations on version 4.1.7. Hosts have dedicated nics for rhevm network - 1gbps, data storage itself is on FC. GlusterFS cluster lives separate on 4 dedicated hosts. It has slow disks but I can achieve about 200-400mbit throughput in other applications (we are using it for "cold" data, backups mostly). I am using this glusterfs cluster as backend for export storage. When I am exporting vm I can see only about 60-80mbit throughput. What could be the bottleneck here? Could it be qemu-img utility? vdsm 97739 0.3 0.0 354212 29148 ?

Logical network setup with neutron
by Lakshmi Narasimhan Sundararajan 06 Dec '17

06 Dec '17

Hi Team, I am looking at integrating openstack neutron with oVirt. Reading the docs so far, and through my setup experiments, I can see that oVirt and neutron do seem to understand each other. But I need some helpful pointers to help me understand a few items during configuration. 1) During External Provider registration, a) although openstack keystone is currently supporting v3 api endpoints, only configuring v2 works. I see an exception otherwise.I have a feeling only v2 auth is supported with oVirt. b) Interface mappings. This I believe is a way for logical networks to switch/route traffic back to physical networks. This is of the form label:interface. Where label is placed on each Hosts network setting to point to the right physical interface. I did map label "red" when I setup Host networks to a physical Nic. And used "red:br-red, green:br-green" here, wherein my intention is to create a bridge br-red on each Host for this logical network and switch/route packets over the "red" label mapped physical nic on each host. And every vm attached to "red" logical network shall have a vnic placed on "br-red" Is my understanding correct? 2) Now I finally create a logical network using external provider "openstack neutron". Herein "Physical Network" parameter that I totally do not understand. If the registration were to have many interface mappings, is this a way of pinning to the right interface? I cannot choose, red, red:br-red... I can only leave it empty, So what is the IP address of the physical address argument part of logical network creation? "Optionally select the Create on external provider check box. Select the External Provider from the drop-down list and provide the IP address of the Physical Network". What this field means?

Re: [ovirt-users] VDSM multipath.conf - prevent automatic management of local devices

Thanks for the reply. Yes I am aware of that and it seems that's what I will have to do. I have no problem with VDSM managing the file, I just wish it didn't automatically load local storage devices into multipathd. I'm still not clear on the purpose of this automatic management though. From what I can tell there is no difference to hosts/clusters made through this automatic management - i.e. you still have to add storage domains manually in oVirt. Could anyone give any info on the purpose of this auto-management of local storage devices into multipathd in VDSM? Then I will be able to make an informed decision as to the benefit of letting it continue.

Fedora support (was: [ANN] oVirt 4.2.0 Second Beta Release is now available for testing)

We currently have too many problems with fedora to call it even 'Technical Preview', as was done in the past. You can still use the nightly snapshots, and most things work, more-or-less, with some issues having known workarounds. See e.g.: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=1460625&hide_resolved… And also: http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/devel/2017-August/030990.html (not sure that one is still relevant for Fedora 27, didn't check recently). > > On 11/15/2017 9:17 AM, Sandro Bonazzola wrote > > > This release is available now on x86_64 architecture for: > > * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.4 or later > > * CentOS Linux (or similar) 7.4 or later > > > This release supports Hypervisor Hosts on x86_64 and ppc64le architectures > for: > > * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.4 or later > > * CentOS Linux (or similar) 7.4 or later > > * oVirt Node 4.2 (available for x86_64 only) > > tp://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users > > > > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list > Users(a)ovirt.org > http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users > -- Didi

Convert local storage domain to shared

--=_345563be-5719-4ca3-a875-90e8c94299c9 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Dear Users, We have an old ovirt3.5 install with a local and a shared clusters. Meanwhile we created a new data center, that based on 4.1 and it use only shared infrastructure. I would like to migrate an big VM from the old local datacenter to our new, but I don't have enough downtime. Is it possible to convert the old local storage to shared (by share via NFS) and attach that as new storage domain to the new cluster? I just want to import VM and copy (while running) with live storage migration function. I know, the official way for move vms between ovirt clusters is the export domain, but it has very big disks. What can I do?
