searching in manager
by Jiří Sléžka 25 May '20

25 May '20

Hi, oVirt 4.3.9.4-1.el7 I am trying to search a vms which has storage domain other than RHEV-SSDStorage so I entered this search string in Manager in Compute / Virtual Machines search form. Storage != "RHEV-SSDStorage" but it looks like all vms are listed. When I try... Storage = "RHEV-SSDStorage" ...it works like expected and only right vms are listed. Also combinations seems does not work. Storage = "RHEV-SlowStorage" or Storage = "RHEV-MidStorage" ...returns 0 rows. Should it work? Cheers, Jiri

how to save stateless disk
by Jiří Sléžka 25 May '20

25 May '20

Hi, I have one vm configured as stateless (useful for example for testing ansible deploying). But now I am in the middle of work and we have planned power outage. If I power down this wm now I will lost my work. It looks like I am unable to create snapshot if vm is in stateless state. Is there any trick how to not loose my stateless state? Is it RFE worth problem? Cheers, Jiri

How to upgrade my cluster to 4.4 without pain (it will be useful not only to me)
by Patrick Lomakin 25 May '20

25 May '20

We have four hosts with self-hosted engines. Installed version of the engine 4.3.9. I have the power reserve to migrate all virtual machines to three hosts and spend on construction on the remaining host. I really want someone to help me make a plan to upgrade and upgrade to version 4.4 without pain. I will describe the configuration in more detail: 4 hosts where ovirt node 4.3.9 was deployed, and then one of them has an ovirt engine with a control panel deployed. In the process the storage was added and everything works fine. In the ovirt settings, when adding a host, I deployed a backup engine (gray crown icon). Backup engine is available on each host and was specially tested when one of the hosts was turned off. "Now as I think it will update and there will be questions immediately." 1. My first step is to remove a free host from the control panel and deploy ovirt node (4.4) on it 2. Next, the question arises: since I have to restore the new engine from backup 4.3.9, will it not show a version incompatibility? 3. If I need to restore the backup, then logically I have to disable all my engines and then restore? 4. When I restore the engine, will my hosts and virtual machines go nowhere? Will hosts with old version 4.3.9 be available? Please do not criticize me and understand correctly - there are over 100 virtual machines with important data. A rough plan could help me minimize serious errors. In addition, I could share my upgrade experience with the real configuration, which could help both developers and administrators. Regards!

Issues encountered performing HE install on 4.3
by Alan G 24 May '20

24 May '20

Hi, I hit a few issues while performing a recent HE install of 4.3. While I managed to find solutions/workarounds to all the problems I thought I might share them here * As defined in the Ansible defaults the temp dir for building the local HE VM is /var/tmp. I was 80M short of the required space and there did not appear to be a (supported) way to specify a different location. I ended up having to do a bind mount of /var/tmp to get me through the install. Would be nice to be able to specify a custom location. * Permissive umask required. Our CIS CentOS 7 build requires that default umask is 027. This breaks the installer as it creates the VM image under /var/tmp as root and cannot then access it as qemu user. As the temp files are cleaned up on failure it took me a while to track this one down. My solution was to temporarily set the umask to 022 for the session while running the installer. It would be nice if the installer either handled this by doing a chmod/chown as required, or at least doing a umask pre-check and failing with a meaningful error. * SSH root login required on host. Again for CIS we have "PermitRoologin no" configured in sshd. This means the add host task fails on the Engine, but instead of a hard failure we get a timeout on the installer. Which left me chasing some imagined routing/bridging/DNS issue. Eventually I realised I could get to the engine logs and found the issue but took several hours. Would be nice if the installer could either support a sudo option or at least perform a root login pre-check and fail with a meaningful error. Thanks, Alan

Same here. I let the installer automatically set the partition configuration. I changed nothing. Same error as you have. On ovirt-node-ng-installer-4.4.0-2020052110.el8
