Hi There Hope you are well. We have two clusters with two ovirt-engines. On the one cluster's ovirt -engine the vm_dynamic tables is almost 3.5 GB big, is that normal ? We are on the latest engine software. Regards Nar

Host has available update for ovirt-host, but nothing found
by Gianluca Cecchi 07 May '19

07 May '19

I have 4.3.3 on engine and hosts in 4.3.3 with plain CentOS, updated from 4.3.2 on 2/5. Since the day after, 3/5, I get the event Check for available updates on host ov200 was completed successfully with message 'found updates for packages ovirt-host'. and also the icon at side of host in web admin gui. But: [root@ov200 ~]# yum update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks, product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager, : vdsmupgrade This system is not registered with an entitlement server.

What to do? Do I have to install the ovirt-host package anyway? Thanks in advance, Gianluca

silent install failing in 4.3.3.5-1 due to question on fqdn of host
by Brian Kircher 07 May '19

07 May '19

Anyone happen to know if I can get the following into an answer file for a silent deployment? It’s asking to confirm or change from the fqdn of the host doing the HE install. Default is fine, but I have to connect in to the screen to answer this before it will continue. Default hostname changed to generic in below log. Forward and reverse are both working via dns.

Re: Best arquitecture for 2 location
by Strahil 07 May '19

07 May '19

You may use gluster with geo-replucation, but that doesn't support gluster updates from remote to local side, so the second location is your DR site and nothing else should be running. Maybe Simone/Sahina can clarify the ovirt part of the setup.

Evary location has 3 host with a storage system. What is the best arquitecture for this scenario?. My problem is that I don know how to recover the manager if its storage is down. With a backup/recover? How I remove the old manager when I recover the storage? > > Cheers > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list -- users(a)ovirt.org > To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave(a)ovirt.org > Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/site/privacy-policy/ > oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ > List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/O2TACPYDX3OYK…

replaced ovirt certs, now i'm locked out with unable to find valid certification path
by michael＠wanderingmad.com 07 May '19

07 May '19

I followed the guide here to replace the self-signed certs with 3rd party certs, and now i'm getting this error on signin: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target do i need to have the .p12 in place also? I extracted the .key and .cer from the existing PFX, and copied them to all the places in the article, renaming the .cer to .pem as neded and I always get that error. Yes, I did copy to the java directory and ran the program to update the trust store, and I can list out the trust store and see it listed. Has there been a recent change in how it handles certs? I tried it with the blank password for the certstore, with "changeit" and also changing the password to "123456" and none work.

Problem with restoring engine
by Andreas Elvers 06 May '19

06 May '19

Hello today I tried to migrate the hosted engine from our Default Datacenter (NFS) to our Ceph Datacenter. The deployment worked with the automatic "hosted-engine --deploy --restore-from-file=backup/file_name" command. Perfect. Only thing is: I messed up with the cluster name. The name should be Luise01 but I entered Luise1. Duh... Now I want to bring the engine back to the Default Datacenter. Easy thing. Just repeat the same steps again. 1. Enable global ha maintenenace 2. Stop and disable the engine 3. create the engine backup 4 ... continue with all the steps from chapter 13.1.8 RHEV Docs 4.3 Beta. Everything looked great. The ansible playbook was running, then asking for the storage domain. I entered the NFS path. It got registered, but then the ansible playbook errors out with [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Add VM] [ ERROR ] Error: Fault reason is "Operation Failed". Fault detail is "[Cannot attach Virtual Disk. The target Data Center does not contain the Virtual Disk.]". HTTP response code is 409. [ ERROR ] fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Fault reason is \"Operation Failed\". Fault detail is \"[Cannot attach Virtual Disk. The target Data Center does not contain the Virtual Disk.]\". HTTP response code is 409."} [ ERROR ] Failed to execute stage 'Closing up': Failed executing ansible-playbook [ INFO ] Stage: Clean up [ INFO ] Cleaning temporary resources I see that there is a bug report on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1649424 Any idea how to get around this error ? Additionally I now have a HostedEngineLocal (shut off) on that node... How do I remove it? engine-cleanup ? Have to get some sleep. best regards.

NonResponsive Host and unknown VMs
by Alexis Grillon 06 May '19

06 May '19

Hello, Context : (probably) After a failed deletion of snapshot during a backup (it had been somes times since i got this problem), one of my host has gone Nonresponsive, and with him, all the VMs who was stored on it or run on it. Instead of removing the problem snapshot (usually it does the trick). I did reboot the host (and without maintenance, it wasn't available) On the Host log, it seems there's nothing wrong, on the Engine log, there's mostly a "ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.dal.dbbroker. auditloghandling.AuditLogDirector] (EE-ManagedThreadFactory-engineScheduled-Thread-10) [] EVENT_ID: VDS_BROKER_COMMAND_FAILURE(10,802), VDSM xxx command Get Host Capabilities failed: Message timeout which can be caused by communication issues", without further informations. One last thing, it seems gluster is working well but the command "gluster volume status" goes timeout (nothing from log seems wrong) Of course, the host ping from the engine, and the engine ping from the host. You'll find on the bottom of the mail more informations about the setup. Here are a few questions if someone can help : - Should i open a bug on that (looks a lot like https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1404082 but i can't do all the test of this bug) ? - Should i be worried about the gluster timeout (the engine is on it) / should i move the gluster point of the unresponsive host on another, and remove the unresponsive host from the pool to fix that ? - i guess that if i fix the unresponsivness of the host, it'll fix the vm (that one is an easy one i hope !) - Once i will have found why the host is unresponsive, and if i can't fix it (have to reinstall it by example), how can i remove the host and the affected vms from the cluster (nearly everything is unavailable on them, maintenance for storage and host are unavailable) ? Any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you. Informations about the setup : ovirt 4.2.8.2 Gluster has been created on system before the installation of ovirt (but is well working this way). Mostly, storage of VMs are made with NFS mount on host, not on a gluster exception made for the engine. The unresponsive host is the arbiter brick of the gluster volumes. I can wipe the unresponsive host, but the cluster is a production cluster, i can't shutdown everything :) ---- Cordialement, Alexis Grillon Pôle Humanités Numériques, Outils, Méthodes et Analyse de Données.

Cascade Lake CPU in oVirt
by Matthias Leopold 06 May '19

06 May '19

Hi, do I get it right that hypervisor hosts with Cascade Lake CPU could be used in oVirt, but would be recognized as "Skylake"? Cascade Lake specific features could only be used in VMs after CL is supported by libvirt (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1677209) and this libvirt is imported in oVirt? We're thinking about buying new hardware and I want to be sure it can be used... thx matthias

Q35 in pre 4.3 updated environments?
by Gianluca Cecchi 06 May '19

06 May '19

Hello, having some environments born before 4.3.0 and Q35 introduction. Now on 4.3.3, but of course existing VMs seem not impacted and retain their machine type, eg a dumpxml gives: <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-i440fx-rhel7.6.0'>hvm</type> Any advise if I want to update any of them to Q35 (supposing their installed OS does support that kind of hw emulation, of course)? Apart from shutdown, edit, system, advanced parameters, change, save and boot? This question leads me to something strange I have noticed: updating cluster to 4.3, when 4.3.0 was released, seems not to have changed default "Emulated Machine" type for it. In fact if I go in my cluster, I see it still with value "pc-i440fx-rhel7.6.0", even if its compatibility version is 4.3. Is this expected? If I edit the cluster I don't see an option to change to q35. My cpu type is "Intel Westmere IBRS SSBD Family", could it influence this situation in any way? Thanks in advance, Gianluca
