Discard is not supported by underlying storage
by Julio Cesar Bustamante 24 May '18

24 May '18

Hi there, I have tried o add a ID LUN from IBM Storage DS3524 by fiber channel, but it appeared this message " Discard is not supported by underlying storage". What am I doing wrong ? Should I do anything else previously?. The version Ovirt manager is 4.2.0.2-1. -- Julio Cesar Bustamante.

Then in any VM that you want to be on this network set NICs VNIC profile that is connected to 192.168.1.x via UI: Virtual Machines -> Desired VM -> Network Interfaces -> nicX -> Edit -> Profile -> Select profile that is connected to 192.168.1.x -> Save. If the VM is up and running you need to first unplug the interface save it and then change profile and plug it in again. Hopefully this helps.

Obtain dynamic inventory onto local machine using ovirt4.py for self-hosted engine
by 03ce007＠gmail.com 23 May '18

23 May '18

I have successfully deployed self-hosted-engine (4.2) on centos (7.4) server. the server address is ovirt where the self-hosted engine running on it has fdqn as engine.ovirt. I have ovirt,ini configured on server acan run the ovirt4.py from the server to obtain the vms in groups. But I want to control the vms using ansible from my macbook and run ansible playbooks locally. so I have downloaded the ovirt.ini and ovirt4.py from server and tried running it, but had no success. Is there something special needs setting up for 'self-hosted-ovirt-engine' as oppose to vanilla ovirt-engine which will allow me to control vms from my macbook? thanks.

oVirt upgrade node from 4.1.9 to 4.2.3
by rcasebier＠adicio.com 23 May '18

23 May '18

My engine is upgraded and running 4.2.3. I am testing out upgrading my first local storage node. I installed the 4.2 release repo and ran a yum update. I had to manually install the following packages form CentOS (yum install udisks2 lshw iotop libvirt-daemon-config-network virt-install python-prettytable) for some reason these dependencies did not exist in the oVirt repo's. I was able to run yum update after fixing this issue and my host was installed with 4.2.3. After a reboot, it failed to boot, the host failed to start the login service and the authorization manager. Has anyone run into this issue?

Using remote viewer outside lan
by Aziz 23 May '18

23 May '18

Hi all, I am able to access my VMs from LAN using remote Viewer, however this is not working from outside LAN, my setup is as follow: 1. Controller in a separate HW machine 2. Host in a server When checking the console.vv file, I see that it includes the local IP address of the host + port 5900. Is there a way to force ovirt to generate a console.vv file with public IP port when the user tries to connect from Internet and another file with lan IP when the user tries to connect from LAN. Any hint on how to set this feature up ? Best regards

Second host deployment fails on self-hosted-engine
by 03ce007＠gmail.com 23 May '18

23 May '18

I have self-hosted-engine (4.2) deployed successfully on cento (7.4) server. The physical server has 'ovirt' as hostname and the self-hosted engineVM deployed and running on it has 'engine.ovirt' as fdqn. I want to deploy another host on engineVM and I am using pre-baked oVirt.Infra role example playbook that has two host defined. But when I run it against the engineVM it fails with 'Connecting to host via SSH has failed' error. Below is the snippet from engine.log Failed to establish session with host 'host2': SSH connection timed out connecting to 'root(a)1.2.3.6' Validation of action 'AddVds' failed for user admin@internal-authz. Reasons: VAR__ACTION__ADD,VAR__TYPE__HOST,$server 1.2.3.6,VDS_CANNOT_CONNECT_TO_SERVER I thought, the example playbook should run and deploy two hosts on already deployed engineVM. Do i need to update the example playbook?

ovirt and gluster disk config
by william.dossett＠gmail.com 23 May '18

23 May '18

Hey, been a few years since I looked at ovirt. 3 years probably and at the time I was looking for compute and storage all in one -and was advised not to basically. So Hyperconvergence is now a thing and want to try it out. I was looking at the blog - up and running with ovirt 4.1, but it seems that is mostly for a lab setup. I've got some real hardware I am going to try this out on as a PoC, 5 Dell R720s with 12 TB raw storage in each. Just wondered if there was a guide to the hardware setup of my storage that I am missing? Should I configure the storage as hardware RAID before I start installing the Nodes? I did setup glusterfs cluster 3 years ago as well but memory fails me on how I had the RAID controller setup if at all. Thanks

attempting to upgrade ovirt host which fails.
by Edward Clay 23 May '18

23 May '18

Hello, Today I began upgrading my ovirt 4.1 to 4.2 by updating the engine following the steps in the 4.2 readme. This went well and the upgrade completed. What I've run into is I have attempted to install the ovirt release 4.2 on the host and then ran a yum upgrade on it while in maintenance mode. I rebooted the system and can put the host into active mode but in the ovirt compute host screen is showing that updates are available. No mater what I do to tell it to check for updates it still shows available updates. If I install updates they fail. I see events like the following in the graphical interface. Check for available updates on host host1 was completed successfully with message 'found updates for packages ovirt-host'. Host host1 was switched to Maintenance mode Host host1 upgrade was started Failed to upgrade Host host1 How can I resolve this issue?

Shameless networking question
by Peter Harman 23 May '18

23 May '18

Ovirt Community, First off: thank you - these emails have helped me to get Ovirt running. I barely know what I am doing but learning quickly. I am trying to do a network separation and confusing myself. I have two physical networks (10.10.x.x/16 and 192.168.1.x/24) my ovirt management is bridged on 10.10.x.x. My (currently single) Hosts have at least one physical NIC connecting to each network. I am trying to get to the point there the VMs are on the 192.168.1.x network and the 10.10.x.x network. The goal is to join the VMs to a AD domain on 192.168.1.x but keep access as limited as possible to the 10.10.x.x network. I've been on a googlethon over the past few days and still don't understand the best practice - or even a working practice - to accomplish this goal.

How to delete leftover of a failed live storage migration disk
by Gianluca Cecchi 23 May '18

23 May '18

Hello, I had an error during live storage migration of a disk. The destination image was created but the process was not completed, because of a bug in the original version of sw. Then I updated sw but if I try to run again the move of the same disk to the same destination storage domain I get VDSM command HSMGetAllTasksStatusesVDS failed: Cannot create Logical Volume: ('679c0725-75fb-4af7-bff1-7c447c5d789c', 'd2a89b5e-7d62-4695-96d8-b762ce52b379') On destination storage domain, that is empty, from web admin gui I see only the 2 OVF_STORE disks. From OS point of view using lvs I see the leftover LV that oVirt complains not able to create (I suppose because already existent due to the former error) # lvs 679c0725-75fb-4af7-bff1-7c447c5d789c/d2a89b5e-7d62-4695-96d8-b762ce52b379 LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin Data% Meta% Move Log Cpy%Sync Convert d2a89b5e-7d62-4695-96d8-b762ce52b379 679c0725-75fb-4af7-bff1-7c447c5d789c -wi------- 55.00g I know that I should use the "vdsClient -s 0 deleteVolume " command from the SPM host. the syntax should be # vdsClient -s 0 deleteVolume --help Error using command: list index out of range deleteVolume <sdUUID> <spUUID> <imgUUID> <volUUID>,...,<volUUID> <postZero> [<force>] Deletes an volume if its a leaf.

Is it the LV name corresponding, so in my case d2a89b5e-7d62-4695-96d8-b762ce52b379 ? The result of the vdsCLient command should be the removal of LV also? Thanks in advance for any insight or link to details... Gianluca

info about reinstall dead node
by Gianluca Cecchi 23 May '18

23 May '18

Hello, I have an host dead in a 4.1.9 environment (broken raid controller compromised both internal disks, don't ask me how it could happen...). I have replaced controller/disks and reinstalled ng-node on the same hw with the same parameters and same version (but ovirtmgmt bridge not present yet, only a bond0 that has to become backed up by the ovirtmgmt bridge when installed). In web admin gui it had been set as not responsive when failed. Now I cannot reinstall it as new. If I try to put it into maintenance it is correctly rebooted but then it remains non responsive. I think I have to "force remove" in some way the previous instance of this node, but the option is greyed out... How can I clean the node and then try to install as new again? Thanks, Gianluca

First host within Self-Hosted engine stays in non-responsive state
by 03ce007＠gmail.com 23 May '18

23 May '18

I am trying to setup self-hosted-engine (4.2) on a single machine running centos 7.4. I ran hosted-engine deploy script and it ran all the way through but failed on last task (at "Wait for the local bootstrap VM to be down at engine eyes") while creating the local engine VM.

update from 4.1.9 to 4.2.3 and OVN doubt
by Gianluca Cecchi 23 May '18

23 May '18

Hello, at beginning of 2017 I configured OVN in my oVirt 4.1.0 setup, with the previosulsy described notes, I think the ones here: http://www.ovirt.org/blog/2016/11/ovirt-provider-ovn/ At that time OVN was not directly integrated in oVirt setup. Then I applied the updates in minor releases and coming at 4.1.9 level in late January this year. Now I plan to update to 4.2.3. I have doubts related to OVN setup. Will the new 4.2.3 OVN setup conflict with my current 4.1.x setup? WHat do I have to answer in setup related questions and prompt? In fact now, after enabling 4.2 repo and updating the setup itself, during the procedure (that I Canceled right now) I receive these questions: # engine-setup . . .

oVirt: engine backup
by femi adegoke 23 May '18

23 May '18

Reading this: https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/self-hosted/chap-Backing_up_and_Restori… It says the node must be in maintenance mode. I was having a discussion on IRC & they were using this (see link) to backup, it makes no mention of maint mode https://scottlinux.com/2015/08/20/create-daily-rhevm-backups/ https://access.redhat.com/solutions/797463 Question: must the node be in maint mode before engine is backed up?

Hi everyone, I will be restarting several production systems within the following hour to apply security updates. The following services may be unreachable for some period of time: - www.ovirt.org - project website - resources.ovirt.org - package repositories - gerrit.ovirt.org - code review - jenkins.ovirt.org - CI master It will not be possible to submit/review patches, clone repositories or run CI jobs during this period. Package repositories and the website will also be unreachable for a short period of time. I will announce you once the maintenance is complete. -- Regards, Evgheni Dereveanchin

Nginx proxy for Ovirt
by Aziz 22 May '18

22 May '18

Hi All, I'm trying to setup nginx as a reverse proxy in order to access ovirt remotely without having to add the fqdn in SSO_ALTERNATE_ENGINE_FQDNS , the idea is that nginx will handle the fqdn translation from my external FQDN (external.fqdn.net ) to ovirt's fqdn (lab.vdi.net) Is there a way to achieve scenario ? Thank you in advance ? Aziz

Use local ansible to talk to engineVM and other vm
by 03ce007＠gmail.com 22 May '18

22 May '18

I have a self-hosted-engine (4.2) running on a centos 7.4 server. I have downloaded ovirt ansible roles from ansible-galaxy and can run them from the server where the engineVM is running and able to deploy new vms, clusters, dc, etc. I have seen the use of ovirt4.py file to target and group hosts which you can target for specific plays. However, the box where self-hosted-engine is running is a physical server but I am looking to run ansible from my local machine instead to manage vms running on engineVM. Is there a way to achieve this? Thank you in advance.
