Changing disk QoS causes segfault with IO-Threads enabled (oVirt 4.3.0.4-1.el7)
by jloh＠squiz.net 23 Apr '24

23 Apr '24

We recently upgraded to 4.3.0 and have found that when changing disk QoS settings on VMs whilst IO-Threads is enabled causes them to segfault and the VM to reboot. We've been able to replicate this across several VMs. VMs with IO-Threads disabled/turned off do not segfault when changing the QoS. Mar 1 11:49:06 srvXX kernel: IO iothread1[30468]: segfault at fffffffffffffff8 ip 0000557649f2bd24 sp 00007f80de832f60 error 5 in qemu-kvm[5576498dd000+a03000] Mar 1 11:49:06 srvXX abrt-hook-ccpp: invalid number 'iothread1' Mar 1 11:49:11 srvXX libvirtd: 2019-03-01 00:49:11.116+0000: 13365: error : qemuMonitorIORead:609 : Unable to read from monitor: Connection reset by peer Happy to supply some more logs to someone if they'll help but just wondering whether anyone else has experienced this or knows of a current fix other than turning io-threads off.

Hi All, I am unable to install oVirt on RHEL7.5, to install it I am taking reference of below link, https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/install-guide/chap-Installing_oVirt.html But though it is not working for me, couple of dependencies is not getting installed, and because of this I am not able to run the ovirt-engine, below are the depencies packages that unable to install, Error: Package: collectd-write_http-5.8.0-6.1.el7.x86_64 (@ovirt-4.2-centos-opstools) Requires: collectd(x86-64) = 5.8.0-6.1.el7 Removing: collectd-5.8.0-6.1.el7.x86_64 (@ovirt-4.2-centos-opstools) collectd(x86-64) = 5.8.0-6.1.el7 Updated By: collectd-5.8.1-1.el7.x86_64 (epel) collectd(x86-64) = 5.8.1-1.el7 Available: collectd-5.7.2-1.el7.x86_64 (ovirt-4.2-centos-opstools) collectd(x86-64) = 5.7.2-1.el7 Available: collectd-5.7.2-3.el7.x86_64 (ovirt-4.2-centos-opstools) collectd(x86-64) = 5.7.2-3.el7 Available: collectd-5.8.0-2.el7.x86_64 (ovirt-4.2-centos-opstools) collectd(x86-64) = 5.8.0-2.el7 Available: collectd-5.8.0-3.el7.x86_64 (ovirt-4.2-centos-opstools) collectd(x86-64) = 5.8.0-3.el7 Available: collectd-5.8.0-5.el7.x86_64 (ovirt-4.2-centos-opstools) collectd(x86-64) = 5.8.0-5.el7 Help me to install this.

27 Mar '23

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1472356 There are 2 drives in my install that oVirt is claiming as multipath. I have tried blacklisting at /etc/multipath/ but that hasn't worked. Any better solutions? I need these 2 drives to be non-multipathed.

Network Address Change
by Paul.LKW 28 Dec '22

28 Dec '22

Hi All: I just has a case, I need to change the oVirt host and engine IP address due to data center decommission I checked in the hosted-engine host there are some files I could change ; in ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf ca_subject="O=simple.com, CN=1.2.3.4" gateway=1.2.3.254 and of course I need to change the ovirtmgmt interface IP too, I think just change the above line could do the tick, but where could I change the other host IP in the cluster ? I think I have to be lost all the host as once changed the hosted-engine host IP as it is in diff. sub net. Does there any command line tools could do that or someone has such experience could share? Best Regards, Paul.LKW

looking for some ISV backup software which integrates the backup API
by Nathanaël Blanchet 08 Jun '22

08 Jun '22

Hello, We are about to change our backup provider, and I find it is a great chance to choose a full supported ovirt backup solution. I currently use this python script vm-backup-scheduler (https://github.com/wefixit-AT/oVirtBackup) but it is not the workflow officially suggested by the community (https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/storage/backup-re…) I've been looking for a long time an ISV who supports such an API, but the only one I found is this one : Acronis Backup Advanced suggested here https://access.redhat.com/ecosystem/search/#/ecosystem/Red%20Hat%20Enterpri… I ran the trial version, but it doesn't seem to do better than the vm-backup-scheduler script, and it doesn't seem to use the backup API (attach a clone as a disk to an existing vm). Can you suggest me some other ISV solutions, if they ever exist... or share me your backup experience?

OVS switch type for hosted-engine

Is it possible to setup a hosted engine using the OVS switch type instead of Legacy? If it's not possible to start out as OVS, instructions for switching from Legacy to OVS after the fact would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Devin

USB3 redirection
by Rik Theys 19 Apr '22

19 Apr '22

Hi, I'm trying to assign a USB3 controller to a CentOS 7.4 VM in oVirt 4.1 with USB redirection enabled. I've created the following file in /etc/ovirt-engine/osinfo.conf.d: 01-usb.properties with content os.other.devices.usb.controller.value = nec-xhci and have restarted ovirt-engine. If I disable USB-support in the web interface for the VM, the xhci controller is added to the VM (I can see it in the qemu-kvm commandline), but usb redirection is not available. If I enable USB-support in the UI, no xhci controller is added (only 4 uhci controllers). Is there a way to make the controllers for usb redirection xhci controllers?

OVN routing and firewalling in oVirt
by Gianluca Cecchi 19 Apr '22

19 Apr '22

Hello, how do we manage routing between different OVN networks in oVirt? And between OVN networks and physical ones? Based on architecture read here: http://openvswitch.org/support/dist-docs/ovn-architecture.7.html I see terms for logical routers and gateway routers respectively but how to apply to oVirt configuration? Do I have to choose between setting up a specialized VM or a physical one: is it applicable/advisable to put on oVirt host itself the gateway functionality? Is there any security policy (like security groups in Openstack) to implement? Thanks, Gianluca

OVN and change of mgmt network
by Gianluca Cecchi 26 Jan '21

26 Jan '21

Hello, I previously had OVN running on engine (as OVN provider with northd and northbound and southbound DBs) and hosts (with OVN controller). After changing mgmt ip of hosts (engine has retained instead the same ip), I executed again on them the command: vdsm-tool ovn-config <ip_of_engine> <nel_local_ip_of_host> Now I think I have to clean up some things, eg: 1) On engine where I get these lines below systemctl status ovn-northd.service -l . . . Sep 29 14:41:42 ovmgr1 ovsdb-server[940]: ovs|00005|reconnect|ERR|tcp: 10.4.167.40:37272: no response to inactivity probe after 5 seconds, disconnecting Oct 03 11:52:00 ovmgr1 ovsdb-server[940]: ovs|00006|reconnect|ERR|tcp: 10.4.167.41:52078: no response to inactivity probe after 5 seconds, disconnecting The two IPs are the old ones of two hosts It seems that a restart of the services has fixed... Can anyone confirm if I have to do anything else? 2) On hosts (there are 3 hosts with OVN on ip 10.4.192.32/33/34) where I currently have this output [root@ov301 ~]# ovs-vsctl show 3a38c5bb-0abf-493d-a2e6-345af8aedfe3 Bridge br-int fail_mode: secure Port "ovn-1dce5b-0" Interface "ovn-1dce5b-0" type: geneve options: {csum="true", key=flow, remote_ip="10.4.192.32"} Port "ovn-ddecf0-0" Interface "ovn-ddecf0-0" type: geneve options: {csum="true", key=flow, remote_ip="10.4.192.33"} Port "ovn-fd413b-0" Interface "ovn-fd413b-0" type: geneve options: {csum="true", key=flow, remote_ip="10.4.168.74"} Port br-int Interface br-int type: internal ovs_version: "2.7.2" [root@ov301 ~]# The IPs of kind 10.4.192.x are ok. But there is a left-over of an old host I initially used for tests, corresponding to 10.4.168.74, that now doesn't exist anymore How can I clean records for 1) and 2)? Thanks, Gianluca

On a new 4.3.1 oVirt Node installation, when trying to deploy HCI (also when trying adding a new gluster volume to existing clusters) using Cockpit, an error is displayed "gluster-ansible-roles is not installed on Host. To continue deployment, please install gluster-ansible-roles on Host and try again". There is no package named gluster-ansible-roles in the repositories: [root@localhost ~]# yum install gluster-ansible-roles Loaded plugins: enabled_repos_upload, fastestmirror, imgbased-persist, package_upload, product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager, vdsmupgrade This system is not registered with an entitlement server. You can use subscription-manager to register. Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * ovirt-4.3-epel: mirror.horizon.vn No package gluster-ansible-roles available. Error: Nothing to do Uploading Enabled Repositories Report Cannot upload enabled repos report, is this client registered? This is due to check introduced here: https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/98023/1/dashboard/src/helpers/AnsibleUtil.js Changing the line from: [ "rpm", "-qa", "gluster-ansible-roles" ], { "superuser":"require" } to [ "rpm", "-qa", "gluster-ansible" ], { "superuser":"require" } resolves the issue. The above code snippet is installed at /usr/share/cockpit/ovirt-dashboard/app.js on oVirt node and can be patched by running "sed -i 's/gluster-ansible-roles/gluster-ansible/g' /usr/share/cockpit/ovirt-dashboard/app.js && systemctl restart cockpit"

deprecating export domain?
by Charles Kozler 30 Aug '20

30 Aug '20

Hello, I recently read on this list from a redhat member that export domain is either being deprecated or looking at being deprecated To that end, can you share details? Can you share any notes/postings/bz's that document this? I would imagine something like this would be discussed in larger audience This seems like a somewhat significant change to make and I am curious where this is scheduled? Currently, a lot of my backups rely explicitly on an export domain for online snapshots, so I'd like to plan accordingly Thanks!

Hi! I have installed oVirt using the iso ovirt-node-ng-installer-4.3.2-2019031908.el7. I the did run the Host-engine deployment through Cockpit.

How to connect to a guest with vGPU ?
by Josep Manel Andrés Moscardó 29 May '20

29 May '20

Hi, I got vGPU through mdev working but I am wondering how I would connect to the client and make use of the GPU. So far I try to access the console through SPICE and at some point in the boot process it switches to GPU and I cannot see anything else. Thanks. -- Josep Manel Andrés Moscardó Systems Engineer, IT Operations EMBL Heidelberg T +49 6221 387-8394

Vm suddenly paused with error "vm has paused due to unknown storage error"
by Jasper Siero 17 Feb '20

17 Feb '20

Hi all, Since we upgraded our Ovirt nodes to CentOS 7 a vm (not a specific one but never more then one) will sometimes pause suddenly with the error "VM ... has paused due to unknown storage error". It happens now two times in a month. The Ovirt node uses san storage for the vm's running on it. When a specific vm is pausing with an error the other vm's keeps running without problems. The vm runs without problems after unpausing it.

Good day for all. I have some issues with Ovirt 4.2.6. But now the main this of it: I have two Centos 7 Nodes with same config and last Ovirt 4.2.6 with Hostedengine with disk on NFS storage. Also some of virtual machines working good. But, when HostedEngine running on one node (srv02.local) everything is fine. After migrating to another node (srv00.local), i see that agent cannot to check livelinness of HostedEngine. After few minutes HostedEngine going to reboot and after some time i see some situation.

But, installation was unsuccesfull, before i didnt install ovirt-hosted-engine-ha on this node. I dont see in documentation that its need bofore installation of new hosts. But this is for information and checking. After installing ovirt-hosted-engine-ha node was installed with HostedEngine support. But the main issue not changed. Thanks in advance for help.

Hyperconverged setup - storage architecture - scaling
by Leo David 10 Jan '20

10 Jan '20

Hello Everyone, Reading through the document: "Red Hat Hyperconverged Infrastructure for Virtualization 1.5 Automating RHHI for Virtualization deployment" Regarding storage scaling, i see the following statements: *2.7. SCALINGRed Hat Hyperconverged Infrastructure for Virtualization is supported for one node, and for clusters of 3, 6, 9, and 12 nodes.The initial deployment is either 1 or 3 nodes.There are two supported methods of horizontally scaling Red Hat Hyperconverged Infrastructure for Virtualization:* *1 Add new hyperconverged nodes to the cluster, in sets of three, up to the maximum of 12 hyperconverged nodes.* *2 Create new Gluster volumes using new disks on existing hyperconverged nodes.You cannot create a volume that spans more than 3 nodes, or expand an existing volume so that it spans across more than 3 nodes at a time* *2.9.1. Prerequisites for geo-replicationBe aware of the following requirements and limitations when configuring geo-replication:One geo-replicated volume onlyRed Hat Hyperconverged Infrastructure for Virtualization (RHHI for Virtualization) supports only one geo-replicated volume. Red Hat recommends backing up the volume that stores the data of your virtual machines, as this is usually contains the most valuable data.* ------ Also in oVirtEngine UI, when I add a brick to an existing volume i get the following warning: *"Expanding gluster volume in a hyper-converged setup is not recommended as it could lead to degraded performance. To expand storage for cluster, it is advised to add additional gluster volumes." * Those things are raising a couple of questions that maybe for some for you guys are easy to answer, but for me it creates a bit of confusion... I am also referring to RedHat product documentation, because I treat oVirt as production-ready as RHHI is. *1*. Is there any reason for not going to distributed-replicated volumes ( ie: spread one volume across 6,9, or 12 nodes ) ? - ie: is recomanded that in a 9 nodes scenario I should have 3 separated volumes, but how should I deal with the folowing question *2.* If only one geo-replicated volume can be configured, how should I deal with 2nd and 3rd volume replication for disaster recovery *3.* If the limit of hosts per datacenter is 250, then (in theory ) the recomended way in reaching this treshold would be to create 20 separated oVirt logical clusters with 12 nodes per each ( and datacenter managed from one ha-engine ) ? *4.* In present, I have the folowing one 9 nodes cluster , all hosts contributing with 2 disks each to a single replica 3 distributed replicated volume. They where added to the volume in the following order: node1 - disk1 node2 - disk1 ...... node9 - disk1 node1 - disk2 node2 - disk2 ...... node9 - disk2 At the moment, the volume is arbitrated, but I intend to go for full distributed replica 3. Is this a bad setup ? Why ? It oviously brakes the redhat recommended rules... Is there anyone so kind to discuss on these things ? Thank you very much !

ovirt-imagio-proxy upload speed slow
by Dev Ops 18 Sep '19

18 Sep '19

I am working on integrating a backup solution for our ovirt environment and having issues with the time it takes to backup the VM's. This backup solution is simply taking a snapshot and making a clone and backing the clone up to a backup server. A VM that is 100 gig takes 52 minutes to back up. The same VM doing a file backup using the same product, and bypassing their rhv plugin, takes 14 minutes. So the throughput is there but the ovirt imageio-proxy process seems to be what manages how images are uploaded and is officially my bottle neck. Load is not high on the engine or kvm hosts. I had bumped up the Upload image size from 100MB to 10gig weeks ago and that didn't seem to help. [root@blah-lab-engine ~]# engine-config -a |grep Upload UploadImageChunkSizeKB: 10240000 version: general [root@bgl-vms-engine ~]# rpm -qa |grep ovirt-image ovirt-imageio-proxy-1.4.6-1.el7.noarch ovirt-imageio-common-1.4.6-1.el7.x86_64 ovirt-imageio-proxy-setup-1.4.6-1.el7.noarch I have seen bugs reported to redhat about this but I am running above the affected releases. engine software is 4.2.8.2-1.el7 Any idea what we can tweak to open up this bottleneck?
