How to re-import a VM with an invalid timezone?
by hibbsncc1701＠gmail.com 27 Aug '21

27 Aug '21

I've just finished my upgrade to oVirt 4.4.8.4, but I've got one previously working VM that I cannot reimport. (I did a fresh install instead of restoring an engine backup.) It's a Windows VM, and every attempt I make to import it causes the following error: Cannot import VM. Invalid time zone for given OS type. Attribute: vm.vmStatic The interface doesn't give me the option to change the timezone before import. The most that I can get from the logs on either the engine host or SPM host is this: 2021-08-26 17:38:30,793-04 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.exportimport.ImportVmFromConfigurationCommand] (default task-35) [96d9f0ea-99be-477a-b1d1-3781ffbac041] Validation of action 'ImportVmFromConfiguration' failed for user admin@internal-authz.

Thanks.

about the hugepage setting of the KVM server
by Tommy Sway 26 Aug '21

26 Aug '21

Hi: I am running virtual machines on the KVM servers of oVirt env. The virtual machine is running database, which needs to set the memory huge page on the OPERATING system of the virtual machine. If I need to set the huge page on the VIRTUAL machine, do I also need to set huge page on the KVM physical machine? Or just on the virtual machine? What best practices do you recommend? Thank you very much!

Fwd: oVirt 4.4.8 is now generally available
by Sandro Bonazzola 26 Aug '21

26 Aug '21

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: *Sandro Bonazzola* <sbonazzo(a)redhat.com> Date: Thursday, August 19, 2021 Subject: oVirt 4.4.8 is now generally available To: oVirt Users <users(a)ovirt.org> oVirt 4.4.8 is now generally available The oVirt project is excited to announce the general availability of oVirt 4.4.8 , as of August 19th, 2021. This release unleashes an altogether more powerful and flexible open source virtualization solution that encompasses hundreds of individual changes and a wide range of enhancements across the engine, storage, network, user interface, and analytics, as compared to oVirt 4.3. Important notes before you install / upgrade Please note that oVirt 4.4 only supports clusters and data centers with compatibility version 4.2 and above. If clusters or data centers are running with an older compatibility version, you need to upgrade them to at least 4.2 (4.3 is recommended). Please note that in RHEL 8 / CentOS 8 several devices that worked on EL7 are no longer supported. For example, the megaraid_sas driver is removed. If you use Enterprise Linux 8 hosts you can try to provide the necessary drivers for the deprecated hardware using the DUD method (See the users’ mailing list thread on this at https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/ thread/NDSVUZSESOXEFJNPHOXUH4HOOWRIRSB4/ ) Documentation - If you want to try oVirt as quickly as possible, follow the instructions on the Download <https://ovirt.org/download/> page. - For complete installation, administration, and usage instructions, see the oVirt Documentation <https://ovirt.org/documentation/>. - For upgrading from a previous version, see the oVirt Upgrade Guide <https://ovirt.org/documentation/upgrade_guide/>. - For a general overview of oVirt, see About oVirt <https://ovirt.org/community/about.html>.

Injecting VirtIO drivers : Query
by KK CHN 25 Aug '21

25 Aug '21

Hi, I am in the process of importing multi disk Windows VMs from HyperV environment to my OpenStack Setup( Ussuri version, glance and QEMU-KVM ) I am referring online documents as in the trailing lines. But Is this relevant to inject VirtIO drivers to the Windows VMs ( as the articles date back to 2015) . Some where it mentions when you perform P2V migration its necessary. Is this VirtIO injection is necessary in my case ? I am exporting from HyperV and importing to OpenStack. 1. Kindly advise me the relevance of VirtIO injection and is it applicable to my requirements. 2. Is there any uptodate reference materials link for performing Windows Multidisk VM importing to OpenStack(ussurin, glance and KVM) . Or Am I doing an impossible thing by beat around the bush ? These are the links which I referred but it too old : So the relevance of the contents still applicable ? ( Windows VMs are Windows 2012 Server, 2008 and 2003 which I need to import to OpenStack) https://superuser.openstack.org/articles/how-to-migrate-from-vmware-and-hyp… https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/kbs/details?targetId=kA00e000000k… Kris

glusterfs not starting
by eevans＠digitaldatatechs.com 25 Aug '21

25 Aug '21

I have an ovirt 4.3 on 3 Centos 7 with Gluster 9. Another Centos 7 server is the Ovirt node, but only for management and file sharing. Everything was fine until a power outage. Now node2 glusterfs will not spawn the listening port for the brick.. All nodes are connected, but just no brick port for the brick on this node due to glusterfsd not starting . I pointed to the volume file: glusterfs --volfile=dds_cluster.kvm02.digitaldatatechs.com.gluster_bricks-kvm02_bricks-brick1-brick1.vol and even the entire path: glusterfs --volfile=/var/lib/glusterd/vols/dds_cluster/dds_cluster.kvm02.digitaldatatechs.com.gluster_bricks-kvm02_bricks-brick1-brick1.vol I really need some help with this and it will be greatly appreciated. Please direct replies to eevans6913(a)gmail.com. My mail server is down.

One important thing, you run the virt-sysprep command on the KVM host indicating the VM name to seal, you do not run it inside a VM. It is not like the sysprep command on a Windows machine.

Using oVirt's own template encapsulation option, however, does not require you to log in to the VM to run similar commands. It's just that using the Virt-Sysprep tool gives you more autonomy and options to choose from, whereas oVirt's own template encapsulation options are fixed and you can't personalize more options. > > > > Am I getting that right? Yes, ovirt manages your environment and such does for you some of the operations to ease you from doing it manually. When you create a template in ovirt you may or may not set the sealing option. In the bottom line it will run virt-sysprep with the parameters we thought are right.

I had a gluster issue and got it resolved, but now the ovirt-image-repository is unattached in the storage domain section. I was able to import the images but want to make sure its something that just points to another problem I don't know about. Any help is appreciated.

If so, can I still run it on KVM Server fn the oVirt platform? It seems that a lot of oVirt's configuration information is not stored in QUEMU's configuration file like ordinary KVM SERVER, but in the database. Does this still work? -----Original Message----- From: Marcos Sungaila <marcos.sungaila(a)oracle.com> Sent: Wednesday, August 25, 2021 12:55 AM To: Liran Rotenberg <lrotenbe(a)redhat.com>; Tommy Sway <sz_cuitao(a)163.com> Cc: users(a)ovirt.org Subject: RE: [External] : [ovirt-users] Re: what difference between the Cloud-Init Network Protocol options ? One important thing, you run the virt-sysprep command on the KVM host indicating the VM name to seal, you do not run it inside a VM. It is not like the sysprep command on a Windows machine.

Using oVirt's own template encapsulation option, however, does not require you to log in to the VM to run similar commands. It's just that using the Virt-Sysprep tool gives you more autonomy and options to choose from, whereas oVirt's own template encapsulation options are fixed and you can't personalize more options. > > > > Am I getting that right? Yes, ovirt manages your environment and such does for you some of the operations to ease you from doing it manually. When you create a template in ovirt you may or may not set the sealing option. In the bottom line it will run virt-sysprep with the parameters we thought are right.

Re: [External] : about the network name rules on CentOS/Redhat 8 and the cloud-init network interface name

Thank you! But where to set in on oVirt Platform when I create the VM ? -----Original Message----- From: Marcos Sungaila <marcos.sungaila(a)oracle.com> Sent: Tuesday, August 24, 2021 9:10 PM To: Tommy Sway <sz_cuitao(a)163.com>; users(a)ovirt.org Subject: RE: [External] : [ovirt-users] about the network name rules on CentOS/Redhat 8 and the cloud-init network interface name The naming convention is called BiosDevName and was introduced in kernel 2.6.27. It is defined by the OS kernel you are using in the guest. It is not related to oVirt itself or the KVM host. In my case, I install my VMs passing "biosdevname=0 net.ifnames=0" during the OS installation process, so all my VMs have ethX name style to make it easier to use cloud-init and other scripts.

As you all know, to use the client's network card name in cloud-init, you must fill in the exact name of the network card interface. This was easy in version 7 and before, which usually started with EN0. After version 8, however, the naming conventions for network cards changed a lot. In my own test environment, for example, I started with ENS3. I'm not sure what naming convention it uses, which would make it impossible to specify nic information using cloud-init. Could you help me explain how to deal with this problem? Thank you very much!
