KVM Import with Thin Provisioning
by Alan Griffiths 30 May '17

30 May '17

Hi, I don't seem to be able create thin provision disks when importing from KVM. Once import is complete the disk allocation policy is reported as thin, but the actual size is in fact slightly larger than the virtual size. For example, original qcow2 file size - 6G. Virtual size - 1024G. Imported actual size (according to Engine GUI) 1126G. Is this a known issue? Running 4.0.4. Thanks, Alan

Migrating VMs because previous host became non-operational
by Brett Holcomb 30 May '17

30 May '17

I'm seeing this error "Migrating VM blah-blah because previous host became non-operational. This appears in the WebUI under the task lists and is getting annoying since it disrupts things like creating snapshots. This migration is quite a feat on a single hosted engine installation with only one host so what exactly is going on? I'd be glad to include some logs and have looked at the vdsm logs but have no idea what I'm looking form.

GetStorageDeviceListVDS failed
by Joel Diaz 30 May '17

30 May '17

Good morning oVirt community, I need some assistance. I am running a 3 host, hosted engine, gluster environment. The hosts are running centos 7.3 and the engine is version 4.1.2.3 Since yesterday, every 2 hours, the engine reports the error below on host 2 and 3. event ID 10802 VDSM <host> command GetStorageDeviceListVDS failed: 'gluster_vg_sdb-/dev/mapper/36589cfc000000f05aea0f2b50f8d76e5: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 0: Input/output error' I've attached logs from both hosts. Hosts 3 is the SPM and holds the arbiter brick of all 4 gluster volumes. As always, your help is appreciated. Joel

Re: [ovirt-users] Building oVirt engine on Debian
by shubham dubey 27 May '17

Hi, I got the same problem once and it seems to be related to memory. So first thing is make sure you have at least 4 gb of ram because thats the minimum requirement for ovirt-engine to run. If with 4gb+ ram you still getting error like this then you must have no swap memory turn on. In that case create a swap partition and turn on using 'swapon /dev/swap-partition'. If the error is still there then may be jvm is not able to access the memory at some place due to selinux. So disable the selinux then try again. Regards, Shubham

VDSM fails after a while
by nicolas＠devels.es 26 May '17

26 May '17

Hi, We recently upgraded vdsm on a host using the webadmin. After activating it, it kept failing so we tried to activate it back via 'systemctl start vdsmd'. # systemctl start vdsmd Job for vdsmd.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status vdsmd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details. Having a look at the status of the process I see: # systemctl status vdsmd ● vdsmd.service - Virtual Desktop Server Manager Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/vdsmd.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: start-limit) since vie 2017-05-26 11:02:41 WEST; 14s ago Process: 25018 ExecStartPre=/usr/libexec/vdsm/vdsmd_init_common.sh --pre-start (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) may 26 11:02:40 systemd[1]: Failed to start Virtual Desktop Server Manager. may 26 11:02:40 systemd[1]: Unit vdsmd.service entered failed state. may 26 11:02:40 systemd[1]: vdsmd.service failed. may 26 11:02:41 systemd[1]: vdsmd.service holdoff time over, scheduling restart. may 26 11:02:41 systemd[1]: start request repeated too quickly for vdsmd.service may 26 11:02:41 systemd[1]: Failed to start Virtual Desktop Server Manager. may 26 11:02:41 systemd[1]: Unit vdsmd.service entered failed state. may 26 11:02:41 systemd[1]: vdsmd.service failed. To check what happened I run the vdsm_init_common.sh script by myself and saw: # /usr/libexec/vdsm/vdsmd_init_common.sh --pre-start vdsm: Running mkdirs vdsm: Running configure_coredump vdsm: Running configure_vdsm_logs vdsm: Running wait_for_network vdsm: Running run_init_hooks vdsm: Running upgraded_version_check vdsm: Running check_is_configured Current revision of multipath.conf detected, preserving lvm is configured for vdsm libvirt is not configured for vdsm yet Modules sebool, passwd, libvirt are not configured Error: One of the modules is not configured to work with VDSM. To configure the module use the following: 'vdsm-tool configure [--module module-name]'. If all modules are not configured try to use: 'vdsm-tool configure --force' (The force flag will stop the module's service and start it afterwards automatically to load the new configuration.) vdsm: stopped during execute check_is_configured task (task returned with error code 1). ----- I run the 'vdsm-tool configure --force' command, it ends successfully and after that I can start the vdsmd process. But... after a while it fails again and I need to re-run the same command all the time. Is this a known bug? any temporary workaround? Versions: vdsm-4.19.15-1.el7.centos.x86_64 libvirt-2.0.0-10.el7_3.5.x86_64 Thanks. Regards.
