Direct Linux kernel/initrd boot
by Chris Adams
I was looking at using direct Linux kernel/initrd booting for a
particular automation project, but I'm not sure how to use it. The docs
talk about referencing files from an ISO domain, but those are
deprecated (and I don't have one). Can the files be in a regular data
domain? How would I specify which domain to look in?
The docs also say the alternative is to specify a path "on the host",
but I guess that requires the files to be copied to the same path on
every host that could boot the VM?
I guess I can instead make a one-off ISO and upload it to a data domain;
it just would be easier to use direct boot.

Requirements to put to cluster version 4.6
by Gianluca Cecchi
Hello,
I updated all my 3 CentOS 4.4.5 hosts to 4.4.6.
Or at least upgrading them from the GUI I see now they are on CentOS 8.4
and:
[root@ov200 ~]# rpm -qa| grep 4.4.6
ovirt-release44-4.4.6.3-1.el8.noarch
ovirt-host-4.4.6-1.el8.x86_64
ovirt-host-dependencies-4.4.6-1.el8.x86_64
[root@ov200 ~]#
How to see from the webadmin GUI or from the Host Console that they are
indeed 4.4.6?
If I try to set cluster compatibility version to 4.6 I get:
Error while executing action: Cannot change Cluster Compatibility Version
to higher version when there are active Hosts with lower version.
-Please move Host ov300, ov301, ov200 with lower version to maintenance
first.
I don't remember the need of giving downtime to get new cluster version...
Or what are further requirements (and benefits....) to upgrade to 4.6?
Thanks,
Gianluca

Expiration date of certificates
by Demeter Tibor
Dear Listmembers,
How can I exctract the expiration dates all certificates which ovirt are uses?
Also, is there any command or tool in ovirt what I can use to create and deploy new certifications on hosted engine and hosts?
Thanks in advance,

ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(score) Penalizing score by 1600 due to network status
by Christoph Timm
Hi List,
I'm trying to understand why my hosted engine is moved from one node to
another from time to time.
It is happening sometime multiple times a day. But there are also days
without it.
I can see the following in the ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/agent.log:
ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(score)
Penalizing score by 1600 due to network status
After that the engine will be shutdown and started on another host.
The oVirt Admin portal is showing the following around the same time:
Invalid status on Data Center Default. Setting status to Non Responsive.
But the whole cluster is working normally during that time.
I believe that I have somehow a network issue on my side but I have no
clue what kind of check is causing the network status to penalized.
Does anyone have an idea how to investigate this further?
Best regards
Christoph

Gluster bricks error
by Patrick Lomakin
For a long time I have been seeing the same error, which cannot be corrected.After restarting the host which has a Volume of one or more Bricks, the Volume starts with the status "Online", but the Bricks remain "Offline". This leads to having to manually restart Volume, the ovirt-ha and ovirt-broker services, and run the hosted-engine --connect-storage command. And only after that I can start the hosted engine back to normal. I tried this on different server hardware and different operating systems for the host, but the result is the same. This is a very serious flaw that nullifies the high availability in HCI using GlusterFS.Regards!

Create gluster brick in oVirt engine, RAID-parameters
by Dominique D
Hi,
When creating a gluster brick in oVirt (host->Storage Devices->Create Brick), I have to fill in the parameters
of the RAID volume the brick : RAID-type, number of disks and stripe size.
My setup is DELL RAID Controler PERC H710
4 SSD disks raid5
Default stripe for Dell RAID-controller defaults is 64KB.
I have no choice of a Raid 5 and if I choose Raid6, 4 or 3 disk, 64KB or 128KB Stripe. It does not work, (Failed to create brick data_ssd on host xxx of cluster Default). The only option that works is RAID type = None
tried to find information about this, but no luck yet..
I tried ovirt engine 4.4.1.10 and lastest 4.4.7.6
Can I leave this to None ? Performance ?
Thank you

4.4.7 gluster quorum problem
by radchenko.anatoliy＠gmail.com
Hi guys,
one strange thing happens, cannot understand it.
Today i installed last version 4.4.7 on centos stream, replica 3, via cockpit, internal lan for sync. Seems all ok, if reboot 3 nodes together aslo ok. But if i reboot 1 node ( and declare node rebooted through web ui) the bricks (engine and data) remain down on that node. All is clear on logs without explicit indication of the situation except "Server quorum regained for volume data. Starting local bricks" on glusterd.log. After "systemctl restart glusterd" bricks gone down on another node. After "systemctl restart glusterd" on that node all is ok.
Where should i look?
some errors of log that i found:

I've finally installed successfully ovirt 4.4.7 using the default installation. I would like to change the passwords for the following userids: postgres, engine database and data warehouse database. Can someone provide me with information grading the files that contain the password to these items? I would also like to know the best way to change the passwords.
Thanks
