Using NFS on Gluster
by Indivar Nair
Hi All,
We would like to set up a 2 node mirrored Gluster Storage using the
ovirt installation tools, but use it as an NFS storage.
We want to do this for 2 reasons -
1. We have a high-speed link between both the Gluster Nodes which we would
like to use for brick replication rather than ovirt node's 1G link
2. We have fast SSD disks on the ovirt nodes which we would like to use for
local NFS Caching (FS Caching) on the VM Images.
In short, we would like to manage Gluster stroage using the ovirt web
interface, but access the Gluster storage as an NFS Server.
How can we do this?
Thanks.
Regards,
Indivar Nair

Hi Andrea,
My guess is that while node2 was in maintenance , node3 brick(s) have died, or there were some pending heals.
For backup, you can use anything that works for KVM, but the hard part is to get the configuration of each VM. If the VM is running, you can use 'virsh dumpxml domain' to get the configuration of the running VM, but this won't work for VM that are off.
Why firewalld was not stopped - my guess is a rare bug that is hard to reproduce.
Best Regards,
Strahil Nikolov

Changing Ovirt hosted engine memory
by Dionysis K
Hello! i am new user to ovirt and i was trying to increase the memory of the hosted engine from 5120 MB to 10240 MB and the reports on the events are those bellow, the environment the hosted engine runs is on 3 ovirt nodes with version 4.2.8 and the hosted engine is updates with the latest version, any ideas how to set up things

Re: OVirt Gluster Fail
by Strahil
Hi Andrea,
The cluster volumes might have sharding enabled and thus files larger than shard size can be recovered only via cluster.
You can try to restart gluster on all nodes and force heal:
1. Kill gluster processes:
systemctl stop glusterd
/usr/share/glusterfs/scripts/stop-all-gluster-processes.sh
2. Start gluster:
systemctl start glusterd
3. Force heal:
for i in $(gluster volume list); do gluster volume heal $i full ; done
sleep 300
for i in $(gluster volume list); do gluster volume heal $i info summary ; done

How to create a template from VM Portal
by Wood Peter
Hi,
How do I create a template from a VM in "VM Portal"?
I'm using version 4.2.8.2 and I don't see the option to convert a VM to a
template anywhere. The documentation refers to the Administration Portal
interface.
Is it possible to create a template from the "VM Portal" or one must login
to "Administration Portal"?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,

API POST ovf file instead of libvirt KVM regular xml
by Nathanaël Blanchet
Hi all,
I've got a ovf file where I need to reuse nic defintions. I want to post them to the REST API, but in API documentation, I'm only able to find examples with libvirt definition.
So my question is : does ovf file are supported to be directly posted or is there a way to convert ovf file to libvirtxml so as to post them to the API?
Thank you.

Gluster event logging
by Ron Jerome
I'm running oVirt 4.3.2, and just upgraded gluster to 5.5. I see that the gluster event daemon now works, however the events are not being processed by the ovirt engine. On the engine side I'm seeing:
"engine.log:2019-03-25 17:14:04,707-04 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.services.GlusterEventsWebHookServlet] (default task-198) [] Error processing event data" in the engine log.
On the gluster servers in event.log, I'm seeing:
"[2019-03-25 17:14:04,704] WARNING [utils - 272:publish_to_webhook] - Event push failed to URL: http://ovirt-engine:80/ovirt-engine/services/glusterevents, Event: {"event": "CLIENT_CONNECT", "message": {"brick_path": "/gluster_bricks/ISO/ISO", "client_identifier": "10.10.15.12:49120", "client_uid": "CTX_ID:d988b64d-2996-44c4-88ed-ee768c9e0c21-GRAPH_ID:0-PID:43711-HOST:ovirt2-PC_NAME:ISO-client-2-RECON_NO:-0", "server_identifier": "10.10.15.12:49155", "subdir_mount": "(null)"}, "nodeid": "9a6ea54e-c692-45bd-889b-ed20c6fb1145", "ts": 1553548444}, Status Code: 500"
How can I determine why these events are not getting processed?

Hosted Engine Storage migration
by joel+ovirt＠robisons.us
Hello listmembers!
I'm in search of some steps to use to migrate my Hosted-Engine from one NFS storage domain to another different NFS storage domain. One of the possible ways to accomplish this task may already be a feature with oVirt 4.1, I'm using 4.2
https://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2017-January/078739.html (New feature in 4.1?)
Will someone elaborate the steps to use this new feature and how I could use it to accomplish this task? the bug link in the email linked above has a comment (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1409112#c12) - does this mean I need to redeploy the hosted-engine? I'm not able to follow as I'm new to oVirt and still learning the ins and outs and design if I'm on the wrong path here please correct me.
Thank you,
-Joel
