Upgrading self-Hosted engine from 4.3 to oVirt 4.4

by Adam Xu

Hi ovirt I just try to upgrade a self-Hosted engine from 4.3.10 to 4.4.1.4. I followed the step in the document: https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/upgrade_guide/#SHE_Upgrading_from_4-3 the old 4.3 env has a FC storage as engine storage domain and I have created a new FC storage vv for the new storage domain to be used in the next steps. I backup the old 4.3 env and prepare a total new host to restore the env. in charter 4.4 step 8, it said: "During the deployment you need to provide a new storage domain. The deployment script renames the 4.3 storage domain and retains its data." it does rename the old storage domain. but it didn't let me choose a new storage domain during the deployment. So the new enigne just deployed in the new host's local storage and can not move to the FC storage domain. Can anyone tell me what the problem is? Thanks -- Adam Xu

I have an issue with new installation. The server name is changing all the time and it keep disconnecting me. Plus it is impossible to log in as admin. The install went through without any issues, but it seems something is wrong. Server: engine01.xxxx.com Log in with your server user account.

routing policy problem in ovirt 4.4

by g.vasilopoulos＠uoc.gr

Hello I created a cluster of ovirt 4.4 with 5 servers, I have a diferent gateway, ovirtmgmt and display network. In 4.4 routing is managed from network manager. Network manager seems to "forget" and recreate the route each time. So I cannot connect to the virtual machines console unless I run a ping for about a minute on the display network ip of the hypervisor, so network manager "wakes up" and "recreates" the route. I use this work around but it is not something that a user can do. What is the proper way to do this ? Thank you

New oVirt Install - Host Engine Deployment Fails

by mblanton＠vnet.net

I am attempting a new oVirt install. I have two nodes installed (with oVirt Node 4.4). I have NFS shared storage for the hosted engine. Both nodes are Dell quad core Xeon CPUs with 32GB of RAM. Both have been hypervisors before, XCP-NG and Proxmox. However I'm very interested to learn oVirt now. The hosted engine deployment (through cockpit) fails during the "Finish" stage. I do see the initial files created on the NFS storage. [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Convert CPU model name] [ ERROR ] fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"msg": "The task includes an option with an undefined variable. The error was: 'dict object' has no attribute ''\n\nThe error appears to be in '/usr/share/ansible/roles/ovirt.hosted_engine_setup/tasks/create_target_vm/01_create_target_hosted_engine_vm.yml': line 105, column 16, but may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.\n\nThe offending line appears to be:\n\n# - debug: var=server_cpu_dict\n ^ here\n\nThere appears to be both 'k=v' shorthand syntax and YAML in this task.

I can event SSH into the HostedEngineLocal instance. [root@ovirt-node01]# virsh --readonly list Id Name State ----------------------------------- 1 HostedEngineLocal running Looking at the "Convert CPU model name" task: https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-ansible-hosted-engine-setup/blob/master/ta... set_fact: cluster_cpu_model: "{{ server_cpu_dict[cluster_cpu.type] }}" server_cpu_dict is good, I can find that in the logs, cluster_cpu is undefined. But this is normal correct? The Cluster CPU type is "undefined" until the first host is added to the cluster. The error makes it seems that server_cpu_dict and not cluster_cpu.type is the problem. I'm not sure this is really the problem, but that is the only undefined variable I can find. Any advice or recommendation is appreciated -Thanks in advance

Re: Random hosts disconnects

by Artur Socha

Hi Anton, I am not sure if changing this value would fix the issue. Defaults are pretty high. For example vdsHeartbeatInSeconds=30seconds, vdsTimeout=180seconds, vdsConnectionTimeout=20seconds. Do you still have relevant logs from the affected hosts: * /var/logs/vdsm/vdsm.log* * /var/logs/vdsm/supervdsm.log* Please look for any jsonrpc errors ie. write/read errors or (connection) timeouts. Storage related warnings/errors might also be relevant. Plus system logs if possible: *journalctl -f /usr/share/vdsm/vdsmd* *journalctl -f /usr/sbin/libvirtd* In order to get system logs from particular time period please combine it with the following example using -S -U options: *journalctl -S "2020-01-12 07:00:00" -U "2020-01-12 07:15:00" * I haven't a clue what to look there for besides any warnings/errors or anything else that seems .... unusual.

Low Performance (KVM Vs VMware Hypervisor) When running multi-process application

by Rav Ya

Hello Everyone, Please advice. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance. Test Setup: 1. oVirt Centos 7.8 Virtulization Host 2. Guest VM Centos 7.8 (Mutiqueue enabled 6 vCPUs with 6 Rx Tx Queues) 3. The vCPUs are configured for host pass through (Pinned CPU). The Guest VM runs the application in userspace. The Application consists of the parent process that reads packets in raw socket mode from the interface and forwards then to child processes (~vCPUs) via IPC (shared memory – pipes). *The performance (throughput / CPU utilization) that I get with KVM is half of what I get with VMware.* Any thoughts on the below observations? Any suggestions? - KVM Guest VMs degraded performance when running multi-process applications. - High FUTEX time (Seen on the Guest VM when passing traffic). - *High SY: *System CPU time spent in kernel space (Seen on both Hypervisor and the Guest VMs only when running my application.) -Rav Ya

UPN suffix and my SAM account do not have the sames domains

by dominique.deschenes＠gcgenicom.com

I have a SSO authentication question. In my Active Directory, my UPN suffix login and my SAM account do not have the sames domains. Example : UPN : dominique.test(a)abc.com Sam account : domtest(a)local.lan On the VM portal, I am able to connect with dominique.test(a)abc.com but not with domtest(a)local.lan (I have the following message:server_error: Cannot resolve principal 'domtest(a)local.lan' If I connect to the VM PORTAL with dominique.test(a)abc.com, when I click on "RDP Console" to get the link, the login of the RDP is dominique.test(a)local.lan. So I have to manually change the login to dominique.test(a)abc.com. Is it possible to use the Sam account domtes(a)local.lan instead of the UPN ? if not, is it possible to adjust the consol.rdp configuration and include the domain abc.com instead of local.lan ? In research I found this, but I don't have access.

Re: Random hosts disconnects

by Anton Louw

Hi Everybody, Did some digging around, and saw a few things regarding “vdsHeartbeatInSeconds” I had a look at the properties file located at /etc/ovirt-engine/engine-config/engine-config.properties, and do not see an entry for “vdsHeartbeatInSeconds.type=Integer”. Seeing as these data centers are geographically split, could the “vdsHeartbeatInSeconds” potentially be the issue? Is it safe to increase this value after I add “vdsHeartbeatInSeconds.type=Integer” into my engine-config.properties file?

Ovirt legacy migration policy is missing

by ovirtand-cnj342＠yahoo.com

Hello, We have many cases of failed migrations, and reducing the load on the respective VMs made migration possible. Using "Suspend workload when needed" did not help either with the migrations, which only worked when stopping services on the VMs, thus reducing load. I was therefore trying to tweak the migration downtime setting. The suggested way of doing this is by using the Legacy migration policy. That being said, I am unable to find the Legacy migration policy in the VM Host tab, nor in the cluster's "Migration policy" tab. I cannot find any mention of it being left out of our current version (4.3.6.1) - moreover, the setting "Use custom migration downtime" (only available when using the Legacy migration policy) does exist in the interface - but I cannot find the Legacy policy itself. The only policies present are Minimal downtime (default for cluster), Post-copy migration and Suspend workload when needed. Is there a way to make the Legacy migration policy available if it's missing? Thanks! Best regards, Andy PS. Setting DefaultMaximumMigrationDowntime=20000 as default did not have any effect, presumably because the system uses one of the 3 pre-defined policies and ignores the "default"

Removal of deprecated init-scripts (network-scripts)

by Ales Musil

Hello, network-scripts for host networking were deprecated since oVirt 4.4. It will be removed completely in the 4.4.3 release. There is no action required for setups that did not change the configuration to use network-scripts backend (net_nmstate_enabled = false). Users that did disable nmstate should redeploy all affected hosts before 4.4.3. Also can you please tell us what was the reason to use network-scripts, if that is the case? Thank you.

Enable a cluster node to run the hosted engine

by rap＠isogmbh.de

Hi there, currently my team is evaluating oVirt and we're also testing several fail scenarios, backup and so on. One scenario was: - hyperconverged oVirt cluster with 3 nodes - self-hosted engine - simulate the break down of one of the nodes by power off - to replace it make a clean install of a new node and reintegrate it in the cluster Actually everything worked out fine. The new installed node and related bricks (vmstore, data, engine) were added to the existing Gluster storage and it was added to the oVirt cluster (as host). But there's one remaining problem: The new host doesn't have the grey crown, which means it's unable to run the hosted engine. How can I achieve that? I also found out that the ovirt-ha-agent and ovirt-ha-broker isn't started/enabled on that node. Reason is that the /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf doesn't exist. I guess this is not only a problem concerning the hosted engine, but also for HA VM's. Thank you for any advice and greetings, Marcus

Disconnected Server has closed the connection.

by info＠worldhostess.com

It seems that the installation is all done, but I have a problem. it takes very long to open the web pages, plus it disconnect all the time. it is impossible to do anything. I can ping the hostname as I set up a sub-domain for it. to be honest, I am new to this and it took me days to get to this point. I think there are some issues with my network settings. if there are any oVirt experts that can check my installation and give me advice about how to improve it, it will be greatly appreciated.

Gluster quorum issue on 3-node HCI with extra 5-nodes as compute and storage nodes

by thomas＠hoberg.net

Yes, I've also posted this on the Gluster Slack. But I am using Gluster mostly because it's part of oVirt HCI, so don't just send me away, please! Problem: GlusterD refusing to start due to quorum issues for volumes where it isn’t contributing any brick (I've had this before on a different farm, but there it was transitory. Now I have it in a more observable manner, that's why I open a new topic) In a test farm with recycled servers, I started running Gluster via oVirt 3node-HCI, because I got 3 machines originally. They were set up as group A in a 2:1 (replica:arbiter) oVirt HCI setup with 'engine', 'vmstore' and 'data' volumes, one brick on each node. I then got another five machines with hardware specs that were rather different to group A, so I set those up as group B to mostly act as compute nodes, but also to provide extra storage, mostly to be used externally as GlusterFS shares. It took a bit of fiddling with Ansible but I got these 5 nodes to serve two more Gluster volumes 'tape' and 'scratch' using dispersed bricks (4 disperse:1 redundancy), RAID5 in my mind. The two groups are in one Gluster, not because they serve bricks to the same volumes, but because oVirt doesn't like nodes to be in different Glusters (or actually, to already be in a Gluster when you add them as host node). But the two groups provide bricks to distinct volumes, there is no overlap. After setup things have been running fine for weeks, but now I needed to restart a machine from group B, which has ‘tape’ and ‘scratch’ bricks, but none from original oVirt ‘engine’, ‘vmstore’ and ‘data’ in group A. Yet the gluster daemon refuses to start, citing a loss of quorum for these three volumes, even if it has no bricks in them… which makes no sense to me. I am afraid the source of the issue is concept issues: I clearly don't really understand some design assumptions of Gluster. And I'm afraid the design assumptions of Gluster and of oVirt (even with HCI), are not as related as one might assume from the marketing materials on the oVirt home-page. But most of all I'd like to know: How do I fix this now? I can't heal 'tape' and 'scratch', which are growing ever more apart while the glusterd on this machine in group B refuses to come online for lack of a quorum on volumes where it is not contributing bricks.

What is the purpose of memory deflation in oVirt memory ballooning?

by pub.virtualization＠gmail.com

Hi, guys Why does momd(ballooning manager in oVirt) explicitly deflate the balloon when host gets plenty of memory? as far as I know, momd is supporting memory ballooning with setMemory API to inflate/deflate the balloon in guest and I've just checked the memory change in the guest after inflating the balloon. as expected, memory(total, free, available) in the guest was reduced just after inflating the balloon, but it was "automatically" restored to its initial memory after a few seconds. So, here I'm wondering why deflation is additionally required even though it can be restored automatically just after seconds. Thanks.

oVirt disk disappeared after importing iSCSI domain

by gantonjo-ovirt＠yahoo.com

Hi all oVirt experts. So, I managed to f.. up a VM today. I had one VM running on a oVirt 4.3 cluster, where the disk was located on an iSCSI data domain. I stopped the VM, put the storage domain in maintenance mode, detached adn removed the storage domain from the ovirt 4.3 cluster. Then I imported the storage domain to our new oVirt 4.4.1 cluster, let the process convert it from V4 to V5 format and activated the storage domain in the new cluster. Entering the information page for the imported storage domain, I expected to see "Import VM" and "Import Disk" menus, but these menues did not appear as they did for other storage domains that I successfully had moved from old to new cluster. Clicking "Scan Disks" did not help either. So, now I am stuck with a storage domain where the VM's disk is located, but oVirt is not able to see the disk. What can I do to recover the lost disk from the storage domain? Any CLI commands available in ovirt 4.4.1 would be nice. Thanks in advance for your quick and good help.

Disconnected Server has closed the connection.

by info＠worldhostess.com

It seems that the installation is all done, but I have a problem. it takes very long to open the web pages, plus it disconnect all the time. it is impossible to do anything. I can ping the hostname as I set up a sub-domain for it. to be honest, I am new to this and it took me days to get to this point. I think there are some issues with my network settings. if there are any oVirt experts that can check my installation and give me advice about how to improve it, it will be greatly appreciated. I have done an "Installing oVirt as a self-hosted engine using the Cockpit web interface"

Multiple GPU Passthrough with NVLink (Invalid I/O region)

by Vinícius Ferrão

Hello, here we go again. I’m trying to passthrough 4x NVIDIA Tesla V100 GPUs (with NVLink) to a single VM; but things aren’t that good. Only one GPU shows up on the VM. lspci is able to show the GPUs, but three of them are unusable: 08:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GV100GL [Tesla V100 SXM2 16GB] (rev a1) 09:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GV100GL [Tesla V100 SXM2 16GB] (rev a1) 0a:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GV100GL [Tesla V100 SXM2 16GB] (rev a1) 0b:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GV100GL [Tesla V100 SXM2 16GB] (rev a1) There are some errors on dmesg, regarding a misconfigured BIOS: [ 27.295972] nvidia: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel.

Testing ovirt 4.4.1 Nested KVM on Skylake-client (core i5) does not work

by wodel youchi

Hi, I've been using my core i5 6500 (skylake-client) for some time now to test oVirt on my machine. However this is no longer the case. I am using Fedora 32 as my base system with nested-kvm enabled, when I try to install oVirt 4.4 as HCI single node, I get an error in the last phase which consists of copying the VM-Manager to the engine volume and boot it. It is the boot that causes the problem, I get an error about the CPU : *the CPU is incompatible with host CPU: Host CPU does not provide required features: mpx* *This is the CPU part from virsh domcapabilities on my physical machine* <cpu> <mode name='host-passthrough' supported='yes'/> <mode name='host-model' supported='yes'> *<model fallback='forbid'>Skylake-Client-IBRS</model> * <vendor>Intel</vendor> <feature policy='require' name='ss'/> <feature policy='require' name='vmx'/> <feature policy='require' name='pdcm'/> <feature policy='require' name='hypervisor'/> <feature policy='require' name='tsc_adjust'/> <feature policy='require' name='clflushopt'/> <feature policy='require' name='umip'/> <feature policy='require' name='md-clear'/> <feature policy='require' name='stibp'/> <feature policy='require' name='arch-capabilities'/> <feature policy='require' name='ssbd'/> <feature policy='require' name='xsaves'/> <feature policy='require' name='pdpe1gb'/> <feature policy='require' name='invtsc'/> <feature policy='require' name='ibpb'/> <feature policy='require' name='amd-ssbd'/> <feature policy='require' name='skip-l1dfl-vmentry'/> </mode> <mode name='custom' supported='yes'> <model usable='yes'>qemu64</model> <model usable='yes'>qemu32</model> <model usable='no'>phenom</model> <model usable='yes'>pentium3</model> <model usable='yes'>pentium2</model> <model usable='yes'>pentium</model> <model usable='yes'>n270</model> <model usable='yes'>kvm64</model> <model usable='yes'>kvm32</model> <model usable='yes'>coreduo</model> <model usable='yes'>core2duo</model> <model usable='no'>athlon</model> <model usable='yes'>Westmere-IBRS</model> <model usable='yes'>Westmere</model> <model usable='no'>Skylake-Server-IBRS</model> <model usable='no'>Skylake-Server</model> <model usable='yes'>Skylake-Client-IBRS</model> <model usable='yes'>Skylake-Client</model> <model usable='yes'>SandyBridge-IBRS</model> <model usable='yes'>SandyBridge</model> <model usable='yes'>Penryn</model> <model usable='no'>Opteron_G5</model> <model usable='no'>Opteron_G4</model> <model usable='no'>Opteron_G3</model> <model usable='yes'>Opteron_G2</model> <model usable='yes'>Opteron_G1</model> <model usable='yes'>Nehalem-IBRS</model> <model usable='yes'>Nehalem</model> <model usable='yes'>IvyBridge-IBRS</model> <model usable='yes'>IvyBridge</model> <model usable='no'>Icelake-Server</model> <model usable='no'>Icelake-Client</model> <model usable='yes'>Haswell-noTSX-IBRS</model> <model usable='yes'>Haswell-noTSX</model> <model usable='yes'>Haswell-IBRS</model> <model usable='yes'>Haswell</model> <model usable='no'>EPYC-IBPB</model> <model usable='no'>EPYC</model> <model usable='no'>Dhyana</model> <model usable='yes'>Conroe</model> <model usable='no'>Cascadelake-Server</model> <model usable='yes'>Broadwell-noTSX-IBRS</model> <model usable='yes'>Broadwell-noTSX</model> <model usable='yes'>Broadwell-IBRS</model> <model usable='yes'>Broadwell</model> <model usable='yes'>486</model> </mode> </cpu> *Here is the lscpu of my physical machine* # lscpu Architecture: x86_64 CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit Byte Order: Little Endian Address sizes: 39 bits physical, 48 bits virtual CPU(s): 4 On-line CPU(s) list: 0-3 Thread(s) per core: 1 Core(s) per socket: 4 Socket(s): 1 NUMA node(s): 1 Vendor ID: GenuineIntel CPU family: 6 Model: 94 Model name: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6500 CPU @ 3.20GHz Stepping: 3 CPU MHz: 954.588 CPU max MHz: 3600.0000 CPU min MHz: 800.0000 BogoMIPS: 6399.96 Virtualization: VT-x L1d cache: 128 KiB L1i cache: 128 KiB L2 cache: 1 MiB L3 cache: 6 MiB NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-3 Vulnerability Itlb multihit: KVM: Mitigation: Split huge pages Vulnerability L1tf: Mitigation;

oVirt HCI issue: GlusterD refusing to start due to quorum issues for volumes where it isn’t contributing any brick

by thomas＠hoberg.net

Sorry if it's a duplicate: I go an error on post... And yes I posted it on the Gluster slack first, but I am using Gluster only because the marketing on oVirt HCI worked so well... I got 3 recycled servers for an oVirt test environment first and set those up as 3-node HCI using defaults mostly, 2 replica + 1 arbiter, 'engine', 'vmstore' and 'data' volumes with single bricks for each node. I call these group A. Then I got another set of five machines, let's call them group B, with somewhat different hardware characteristics than group A, but nicely similar between themselves. I wanted to add these to the farm as compute nodes but also use their storage as general GlusterFS storage for a wider use. Group B machines were added as hosts and set up to run hosted-engine, but they do not contribute bricks to the normal oVirt volumes 'engine', 'vmstore' or 'data'. With some Ansible trickery I managed to set up two dispersed volumes (4 data: 1 redundancy) on group B 'scratch' and 'tape', mostly for external GlusterFS use. oVirt picked them up automagically, so I guess they could also be used with VMs. I expect to get more machines and adding them one-by-one to dispersed volumes with a fine balance between capacity and redundancy made me so enthusiastic about oVirt HCI in the first place... After some weeks of fine operation I had to restart a machine from group B for maintenance. When it came back up, GlusterD refuses to come online, because it doesn't have "quorum for volumes 'engine', 'vmstore' and 'data'".... It's a small surprise it doesn't *have* quorum, what's a bigger surprise is that it *asks* for quorum in a volume where it's not contributing any bricks. What's worse is that it then refuses to start serving its bricks for 'scratch' and 'tape', which are now growing apart without any chance of healing. How do I fix this? Is this a bug (my interpretation) or do I fundamentlly misunderstand how Gluster as a hyper scale out file system is supposed to work with potentially thousands of hosts contributing each dozens of bricks to each of hundreds of volumes in a single name space?

OVN Geneve tunnels not been established

by Konstantinos B

Hi all We have a small installation based on OVIRT 4.3. 1 Cluster is based on Centos 7 and the other on OVIRT NG Node image. The environment was stable till an upgrade took place a couple of months ago. As such we had to re-install one of the Centos 7 node and start from scratch. Even though the installation completed successfully and VMs are created, the following are not working as expected: 1. ovn geneve tunnels are not established with the other Centos 7 node in the cluster. 2. Centos 7 node is configured by ovirt engine however no geneve tunnel is established when "ovn-sbctl show" is issued on the engine. 3. no flows are shown on the engine on port 6642 for the ovs db. Does anyone have any experience on how to troubleshoot OVN on ovirt? Thank you

Failed to create a new VM in ovirt due to "The host did not satisfy internal filter Memory" error

by KISHOR K

Hi All, I'm new to Ovirt and not having a perfect experience with Ovirt yet. I ran into a strange issue today when I tried to create a new VM with 32GB in ovirt. VM creation basically due to an error, pasted below. Cannot run VM. There is no host that satisfies current scheduling constraints. See below for details:, The host host-01 did not satisfy internal filter Memory., The host host-01 did not satisfy internal filter Memory. After some troubleshooting, I found that there was enough available memory (around 120 GB free ) in the host to host new VM and there were around 10 VMs already running on this host. But, I noticed that ovirt is actually scheduling and creating VM based on "Max free Memory for scheduling new VMs" value, which seems to be set/updated based on total allocated memory for all VMs running on the host and it's not really the then consumed memory by running VMs. Can anyone help to explain if it is some kind of bug in ovirt or it expected behavior? If it is expected behavior, is there any possibility to change it to make sure VM is created based on actual free memory? Thanks a lot in advance for your support. /Kishore /Kishore

Diskless oVirt Nodes

by harryo.dk＠gmail.com

Hi, why does my ovirt hypervisor node crash when i pull the hypervisor boot drive? The following thread claims that the oVirt node hypervisor should lodad into memory, so boot disk failure shouldn't have any impact on a running node. https://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2014-December/029771.html Only memory failure should have a impact, and if RAM fails there is a possibility that the hypervisor OS would have crashed regardless. If you load the hypervisor OS into memory there will be moved/combined a point of failure (the boot disk) with another(the RAM). RAM=memory

Hyperconverged set up with Gluster and 6 Nodes

by Holger Petrick

Dear All, in all documentation to set up oVirt in a Hyperconverged system with Gluster says that it must have 3 Enterprise nodes. In our test environment we set up successfully with oVirt wizard an oVirt cluster with gluster + Arbiter and hosted engine. Is it also possible to build a cluster with 6 nodes? The wizard gives only the option to add 3 nodes. Is this kind of design supported? My idea is, first to set up the Gluster, then install the oVirt nodes and deploy the engine. Would this work? Any documentation avaiable? Thanks Holger

iSCSI multipath issue

by Nick Kas

Hello evryone, setup ovirt 4.4.1 on CentOS 8.2 as an experiment, and I am trying to get an iSCSI domain working but have issues. The little experimental cluster has 3 hosts. There is an ovirtmgmt network on the default vlan, and two iSCSI network (172.27.0/1.X) with vlans 20/21. ovirtmgmt has all the functions (Data, display, migration etc), and the iSCSI networks nothing yet, and they are not set as required. The SAN device is already serving a few iSCSI volumes to a vmware cluster, so I know things are fine on this end. It has two controllers, and four NICs per controller so a total of 8 NICs, half of the NICS per controller on 172.27.0.X and half on 172.27.1.X. When I create the iSCSI domain, I login to only one of the targets, and add the Volume, all is good and I can use the disc fine. However when I login to more than one of the targets, then I start having issues with the Volume. Even when I enabled multipath in the cluster, and I created a single multipath by selecting both of the 172.27.0/1.X networks, and all the targets, the end result was the same. The hosts have difficulty accessing the volume, they may even swing between 'non-operational' and 'up' if I transfer data to the volume. When I ssh to the hosts and i check things in the command line I also get inconsistent results between hosts, and blocks that appear with lsblk when I first setup iSCSI have dissapeared after I try to actively use the volume. I am new to iSCSI so I am not sure how to debug this. I am not sure if my multipath configuration is correct or not. The documentation on this part was not very detailed. I also tried to remove the domain, and try to experiment with mounting the iSCSI volume from the command line, but I cannot even discover the target from the command line, which is very bizarre. The command iscsiadm --mode discovery --target sendtargets --portal 172.27.0.55 --discover returns the message 'iscsiadm: cannot make connection to 172.27.0.55: No route to host'. Yet through ovirt, and if I select only one target, everything work fine! Any suggestions on how to start debugging this would really be appreciated.

Engine certificate and HTTPS : broken on recent Firefox

by Michaël Couren

Hi, Is there a "verified"* way to add a valid certificate to an oVirt 4.3 engine ? (or suppress HTTP Strict Transport Security) It is no more possible to add a security exception (on latest Firefox 80.0.1 Linux) and I don't want to use 2 browsers (like sanp-chromium just for oVirt...) *"verified" : I mean we have already tried official doc (many months ago) but with no success Thanks -- Cordialement / Best regards, Michaël Couren, ABES, Montpellier, France.

Re: KeyCloak Integration

by Artur Socha

Hi Anton, Just to let you know. I investigated this issue. If you want to use keycloak in version >=10 you would need to define all additional scopes as 'optional client scopes' in your client configuration. In my case, on my test environment, I only had to add 'ovirt-ext=auth:sequence-priority=~' but in your case you may need all listed in error_description: *{"error_description":"Cannot authenticate user Invalid scopes: ovirt-app-api ovirt-ext=revoke:revoke-all ovirt-ext=token-info:authz-search ovirt-ext=token-info:public-authz-search ovirt-ext=token-info:validate ovirt-ext=token:password-access.","error":"access_denied"}* This configuration change is required because it has been changed/fixed how 'unknown' scopes are handled in keycloak. Now keycloak must always be aware of all scopes and previously unknown ones were simply ignored. Here is BZ with details: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1849569 best, Artur On Tue, Jun 23, 2020 at 5:03 PM Artur Socha <asocha(a)redhat.com> wrote: > On Tue, 2020-06-23 at 14:41 +0000, Anton Louw wrote: > > > > Hi Artur, > > > > Apologies for the late response.

Storage Domain won't activate

by Gillingham, Eric J (US 393D)

I recently removed a host from my cluster to upgrade it to 4.4, after I removed the host from the datacenter VMs started to pause on the second system they all migrated to. Investigating via the engine showed the storage domain was showing as "unknown", when I try to activate it via the engine it cycles to locked then to unknown again. /var/log/sanlock.log contains a repeating: add_lockspace e1270474-108c-4cae-83d6-51698cffebbf:1:/dev/e1270474-108c-4cae-83d6-51698cffebbf/ids:0 conflicts with name of list1 s1 e1270474-108c-4cae-83d6-51698cffebbf:3:/dev/e1270474-108c-4cae-83d6-51698cffebbf/ids:0 vdsm.log contains these (maybe related) snippets: --- 2020-09-03 20:19:53,483+0000 INFO (jsonrpc/6) [vdsm.api] FINISH getAllTasksStatuses error=Secured object is not in safe state from=::ffff:137.79.52.43,36326, flow_id=18031a91, task_id=8e92f059-743a-48c8-aa9d-e7c4c836337b (api:52) 2020-09-03 20:19:53,483+0000 ERROR (jsonrpc/6) [storage.TaskManager.Task] (Task='8e92f059-743a-48c8-aa9d-e7c4c836337b') Unexpected error (task:875) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/task.py", line 882, in _run return fn(*args, **kargs) File "<string>", line 2, in getAllTasksStatuses File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/common/api.py", line 50, in method ret = func(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/hsm.py", line 2201, in getAllTasksStatuses allTasksStatus = self._pool.getAllTasksStatuses() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/securable.py", line 77, in wrapper raise SecureError("Secured object is not in safe state") SecureError: Secured object is not in safe state 2020-09-03 20:19:53,483+0000 INFO (jsonrpc/6) [storage.TaskManager.Task] (Task='8e92f059-743a-48c8-aa9d-e7c4c836337b') aborting: Task is aborted: u'Secured object is not in safe state' - code 100 (task:1181) 2020-09-03 20:19:53,483+0000 ERROR (jsonrpc/6) [storage.Dispatcher] FINISH getAllTasksStatuses error=Secured object is not in safe state (dispatcher:87) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/dispatcher.py", line 74, in wrapper result = ctask.prepare(func, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/task.py", line 108, in wrapper return m(self, *a, **kw) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/task.py", line 1189, in prepare raise self.error SecureError: Secured object is not in safe state --- 2020-09-03 20:44:23,252+0000 INFO (tasks/2) [storage.ThreadPool.WorkerThread] START task 76415a77-9d29-4b72-ade1-53207cfc503b (cmd=<bound method Task.commit of <vdsm.storage.task.Task instance at 0x7fe99c27dea8>>, args=None) (thre adPool:208) 2020-09-03 20:44:23,266+0000 INFO (tasks/2) [storage.SANLock] Acquiring host id for domain e1270474-108c-4cae-83d6-51698cffebbf (id=1, wait=True) (clusterlock:313) 2020-09-03 20:44:23,267+0000 ERROR (tasks/2) [storage.TaskManager.Task] (Task='76415a77-9d29-4b72-ade1-53207cfc503b') Unexpected error (task:875) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/task.py", line 882, in _run return fn(*args, **kargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/task.py", line 336, in run return self.cmd(*self.argslist, **self.argsdict) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sp.py", line 317, in startSpm self.masterDomain.acquireHostId(self.id) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sd.py", line 957, in acquireHostId self._manifest.acquireHostId(hostId, wait) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sd.py", line 501, in acquireHostId self._domainLock.acquireHostId(hostId, wait) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/clusterlock.py", line 344, in acquireHostId raise se.AcquireHostIdFailure(self._sdUUID, e) AcquireHostIdFailure: Cannot acquire host id: ('e1270474-108c-4cae-83d6-51698cffebbf', SanlockException(22, 'Sanlock lockspace add failure', 'Invalid argument')) --- Another symptom is in the hosts view of the engine SPM bounces between "Normal" and "Contending". When it's Normal if I select Management -> Select as SPM I get "Error while executing action: Cannot force select SPM. Unknown Data Center status." I've tried rebooting the one remaining host in the cluster no to avail, hosted-engine --reinitialize-lockspace also seems to not solve the issue. I'm kind of stumped as to what else to try, would appreciate any guidance on how to resolve this. Thank You

Failed to connect to server (code: 1006) connecting to second host noVNC console

by James Loker-Steele

Hi All, Using OLVM and having an issue connecting to a noVNC console on a secondary host. Im getting the Failed to connect. We are using the standalone host as the deployment of the self hosted kept failing, something about the machine not being able to run virtualised machines even though it can. Added a second kvm host to the management engine. Can create new machines, disks etc. Just when trying to connect to the console using noVNC. Any help would be appreciated.

Upgrade 4.3 to 4.4 node to manager communication error

by Pierre pit

I have a communication problem between all the nodes and the manager following the upgrade from 4.3 to 4.4. I followed the procedure of update 4.3 to 4.4 everything worked correctly, according to the import export scripts as well as the installation setup on the new manager in 4.4, all is ok. Only after connection to the manager, all the nodes are in a down state, there is no more communication between the manager newly installed in 4.4 and the nodes still in production in 4.3. In the manager I have this message for all the nodes: ` VDSM virtdell8 command Get Host Capabilities failed: PKIX path validation failed: java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Algorithm constraints check failed on signature algorithm: SHA256withRSA` And on the nodes: ` 2020-09-01 17:38:13,083+0200 ERROR (Reactor thread) [ProtocolDetector.SSLHandshakeDispatcher] ssl handshake: SSLError, address: ::ffff:XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (sslutils:264) vdsm[4400]: ERROR ssl handshake: SSLError, address: ::ffff:XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX` After a search on the forums I found a similar error on version 4.2 only the solution of comment `ssl_excludes` in the `/etc/vdsm/vdsm.conf` file but does not apply to my problem. I unfortunately had to backtrack because it was no longer possible to control ovirt and use the manager for our production. the new machine with the manager in 4.4 is offline while a solution is found Do you know where should I look in order to solve this problem? thank you in advance Pierre

Re: [ovirt 4.2]The snapshot is deleted after restoring the snapshot

by Strahil Nikolov

If you have snapshots like A -> B -> C and you restore A , it is normal to loose B & C. After all when you restore A , B & C never happened.

How to Backup a VM

by Stefan Wolf

Hello to all I try to backup a normal VM. But It seems that I don't really understand the concept. At first I found the possibility to backup with the api https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/administration_guide/#Setting_a_stora.... Create a snapshot of the VM, finding the ID of the snapshot and the configuration of the VM makes sense to me. But at this point, I would download the config an the snapshot and put it to my backup storage. And not create a new VM attach the disk and run a backup with backup programm. And for restoring do the sam way backwards. If i look at other project, there seems do be a way to download the snapshot and configfile, or am I wrong? Maybe someone can explain to me why I should use additional software to install in an additional machine. Or even better someone can explain to me how I don't have to use additional backup software. And to the same topic backup. There is in the documentation the possibility to set up a backup storage It is nearly the same, create a snapshot, or clone the machine and export it to backup storage > Export the new virtual machine to a backup domain. See Exporting a Virtual Machine to a Data Domain in the Virtual Machine Management Guide. Sadly there is just writen what to do, not how, the link points to 404 page. maybe someone can explain to me how to use backup storage thank you very much shb

[ovirt 4.2]The snapshot is deleted after restoring the snapshot

Ovirt Host Crashed

by Darin Schmidt

I am running this as an all in one system for a test bed at home. The system crashed which lead me to have to reinstall the OS (CentOS 8) and I imported the data stores but I cannot find any way to import the VM's that were in the DATA store. I havent had a chance to backup/export the VMs. I havent been able to find anything in the documentation on how to import these VMs. Any suggestions or links to what Im looking for? I had to create a new DATA store as the option for importing a local data store wasnt an option, I assume its because the host was down. THen I imported the old data store.

Mellanox OFED with oVirt

by Vinícius Ferrão

Hello, Anyone had success using Mellanox OFED with oVirt? Already learned some things: 1. I can’t use oVirt Node. 2. Mellanox OFED cannot be installed with mlnx-ofed-all since it breaks dnf. We need to rely on the upstream RDMA implementation. 3. The way to go is running: dnf install mlnx-ofed-dpdk-upstream-libs But after the installation I ended up with broken dnf: [root@c4140 ~]# dnf update Updating Subscription Management repositories. Last metadata expiration check: 0:03:54 ago on Tue 01 Sep 2020 11:52:41 PM -03.

How can Gluster be a HCI default, when it's hardly ever working?

by thomas＠hoberg.net

I've just tried to verify what you said here. As a base line I started with the 1nHCI Gluster setup. From four VMs, two legacy, two Q35 on the single node Gluster, one survived the import, one failed silently with an empty disk, two failed somewhere in the middle of qemu-img trying to write the image to the Gluster storage. For each of those two, this always happened at the same block number, a unique one per machine, not in random places, as if qemu-img reading and writing the very same image could not agree. That's two types of error and a 75% failure rate I created another domain, basically using an NFS automount export from one of the HCI nodes (a 4.3 node serving as 4.4 storage) and imported the very same VMs (source all 4.3) transported via a re-attached export domain to 4.4. Three of the for imports worked fine, no error with qemu-img writing to NFS. All VMs had full disk images and launched, which verified that there is nothing wrong with the exports at least. But there was still one, that failed with the same qemu-img error. I then tried to move the disks from NFS to Gluster, which internally is also done via qemu-img, and I had those fail every time. Gluster or HCI seems a bit of a Russian roulette for migrations, and I am wondering how much it is better for normal operations. I'm still going to try moving via a backup domain (on NFS) and moving between that and Gluster, to see if it makes any difference. I really haven't done a lot of stress testing yet with oVirt, but this experience doesn't build confidence.

HP blade G7, with be2net.

by Remulo

Hello I have some blades with 10GE interface that have / need the Emulex be2net driver, however it is no longer available on Redhat8 / Centos8. Is there any way to install ovirt to work on these machines? Here are some links to problems with Redhat. Emulex NIC using be2net driver https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1229853 https://access.redhat.com/solutions/514353 I did a lot of research and couldn't get a functional driver for ovirt. Thank you. -- Atenciosamente, Rêmulo Ferreira.

How can you avoid breaking 4.3.11 legacy VMs imported in 4.4.1 during a migration?

by thomas＠hoberg.net

Testing the 4.3 to 4.4 migration... what I describe here is facts is mostly observations and conjecture, could be wrong, just makes writing easier... While 4.3 seems to maintain a default emulated machine type (pc-i440fx-rhel7.6.0 by default), it doesn't actually allow setting it in the cluster settings: Could be built-in, could be inherited from the default template... Most of my VMs were created with the default on 4.3. oVirt 4.4 presets that to pc-q35-rhel8.1.0 and that has implications: 1. Any VM imported from an export on a 4.3 farm, will get upgraded to Q35, which unfortunately breaks things, e.g. network adapters getting renamed as the first issue I stumbled on some Debian machines 2. If you try to compensate by lowering the cluster default from Q35 to pc-i44fx the hosted-engine will fail, because it was either built or came as Q35 and can no longer find critical devices: It evidently doesn't take/use the VM configuration data it had at the last shutdown, but seems to re-generate it according to some obscure logic, which fails here. I've tried creating a bit of backward compatibility by creating another template based on pc-i440fx, but at the time of the import, I cannot switch the template. If I try to downgrade the cluster, the hosted-engine will fail to start and I can't change the template of the hosted-engine to something Q35. Currently this leaves me in a position where I can't separate the move of VMs from 4.3 to 4.4 and the upgrade of the virtual hardware, which is a different mess for every OS in the mix of VMs. Recommendations, tips anyone? P.S. A hypervisor reconstructing the virtual hardware from anywhere but storage at every launch, is difficult to trust IMHO.

Upgrade Doc typo.

by carl langlois

Hi, Not sure if this is relevant but in the ovirt doc in the 4.2 to 4.3 upgrade the repo rpm is specified with 4,4 rpm . Thanks Carl [image: image.png]
