Install hosted engine using fcoe
by kyles＠aasteel.com
We're building a new cluster, but it utilizes fcoe for our storage. Is there a way to install the hosted engine using fcoe? I am unable to see our LUNs in the ovirt node currently as fcoe isn't enabled.

Deploy ovirt-csi in the kubernetes cluster
by ssarang520＠gmail.com
Hi,
I want to deploy ovirt-csi in the kubernetes cluster. But the guide only has how to deploy to openshift.
How can I deploy the ovirt-csi in the kubernetes cluster? Is there any way to do that?

how to search event not matching a user
by Gianluca Cecchi
Hello,
every event in Advanced view has a field "User".
I'm trying to compose a search in web admin of events with user different
from myuser@internal
It seems I'm not able to get what I want.
I also tried to base attempts on an old 2019 thread (on 4.3.6) where this
queries worked:
Disks: name=engine* or name=host*
Disks: alias=engine* or alias=host*
but now on 4.4.8 gives nothing even if matched.
Any hint and also documentation reference about the correct syntax to use
in 4.4.x?
Thanks,
Gianluca

What happened to oVirt engine-setup?
by Richard W.M. Jones
A while back I had oVirt 4.4.7 installed which I used for testing.
For some reason that installation has died in some way, so I'm trying
to install a fresh new oVirt 4.4.10.
Last time I installed ovirt, it was very easy - I provisioned a couple
of machines, ran engine-setup in one, answered a few questions and
after a few minutes the engine was installed.
Somehow this has changed and now it's really far more complicated,
involving some ansible things and wanting to create VMs and ssh
everywhere.
Can I go back to the old/easy way of installing oVirt engine? And if
so, what happened to the instructions for that?
Rich.

Host needs to be reinstalled after configuring power management
by Andrew DeMaria
Hi,
I am running ovirt 4.3 and have found the following action item immediately
after configuring power management for a host:
Host needs to be reinstalled as important configuration changes were
applied on it.
The thing is - I've just freshly installed this host and it seems strange
that I need to reinstall it.
Is there a better way to install a host and configure power management
without having to reinstall it after?
Thanks,
Andrew

Cinderlib RBD ceph template issues
by Sketch
This is on oVirt 4.4.8, engine on CS8, hosts on C8, cluster and DC are
both set to 4.6.
With a newly configured cinderlib/ceph RBD setup. I can create new VM
images, and copy existing VM images, but I can't copy existing template
images to RBD. When I do, I try, I get this error in cinderlib.log (see
below), which sounds like the disk already exists there, but it definitely
does not. This leaves me unable to create new VMs on RBD, only migrate
existing VM disks.

no snaphot but engines complains there is one when trying to remove disk
by Nathanaël Blanchet
Hi all,
A colleague launched this morning a snapshot creation, there was no
error message but he wasn't able to start the vm anymore, with this
issue : VM PSI-SYB-DEV is down with error. Exit message: Unable to get
volume size for domain a5be6cae-f0c8-452f-b7cd-70d0e5eed710 volume
109fac1e-c2e3-4ba6-9867-5d1c94d3a447..
I tried many things but nothing works: it is impossible to remove this
disk, or copy it, or clone the vm :
Cannot detach Virtual Disk. The disk is already configured in a
snapshot. In order to detach it, remove the disk's snapshots.
There is no snaphost listed into webui or api (so not snapshot id),
while disk_snapshots exists into the associated storage domain.
So I tried to remove disks snapshot direvctly with API followind the
DELETE method
|DELETE /api/storagedomains/{storage_id}/disksnapshots/{image_id}|
[Cannot remove Disk Snapshot. VM\'s Snapshot does not exist.]
In conclusion: vm_disks can't be removed because of the non existent
associated vm's snapshot id.
I tried to remove vm_snapshots disks references directly into the
postgres DB but I didn't find the correct table.
What can I do now?
Your precious help is welcome.

oVirt 4.4.10 Async update #2
by Sandro Bonazzola
On January 26th 2022 the oVirt project released an async update to the
following packages:
- ovirt-engine 4.4.10.6
Fixing the following bugs:
- [BZ 2044277 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2044277>] -
Replace ovirt-engine-extension-logger-log4j with internal ovirt-engine
implementation
Package ovirt-engine-extension-logger-log4j has been obsoleted and
replaced by internal ovirt-engine implementation in oVirt Engine 4.4.10.6.
During upgrade from previous oVirt versions to oVirt 4.4.10
ovirt-engine-extension-logger-log4j package is uninstalled if it was
previously installed.
If you used ovirt-engine-extension-logger-log4j in previous oVirt
versions, you will need to manually remove existing
ovirt-engine-extension-logger-log4j
configuration files and configure the new feature of sending log records
to remote syslog service according to the Administration Guide.
Also after successful upgrade to oVirt 4.4.10 you can manually uninstall
log4j12 package without breaking oVirt setup:
$ dnf remove log4j12
- [BZ 2044257 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2044257>] - Bump
snmp4j library version to remove dependency on log4j
oVirt Engine 4.4.10.6 is requiring snmp4j >= 3.6.4, which no longer
depends on log4j library

Problems with OVirt 4.3 on old IBM HS22 blades
by manieq.net＠gmail.com
Hi all,
I'm pretty new to OVirt so forgive me if this problems is trivial...
I received an old IBM BladeCenter H chassis with a few HS22 blades. Some of them are successfully working in my Ovirt farm, but some not. The NonOperational nodes are not used because of missing Westmere model. I use 4.3.10 wersion because 4.4 did not supported some old HW (net adapters, IIRC).
The problem is that many blades are almost identical. For example ("Hosts" page --> "General" tab --> "Hardware" section):
* BLADE 1 (not working):
Manufacturer:IBM
Family:System x
Product Name:BladeCenter HS22 -[7870H4G]-
Version:07
UUID:e36b6686-d111-11df-9dce-e41f13cb90d0
Serial Number:06FP476
CPU Model Name:Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5670 @ 2.93GHz
CPU Type:Intel Nehalem IBRS SSBD Family
CPU Sockets:2
CPU Cores per Socket:6
CPU Threads per Core:2 (SMT Enabled)
* BLADE 2 (working fine):
Manufacturer: IBM
Family: System x
Product Name: BladeCenter HS22 -[7870H4G]-
Version: 07
UUID: 30f2fcc8-d0ce-11df-bc12-e41f13cb90cc
Serial Number: 06FP469
CPU Model Name: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5670 @ 2.93GHz
CPU Type: Intel Westmere IBRS SSBD Family
CPU Sockets: 2
CPU Cores per Socket: 6
CPU Threads per Core: 2 (SMT Enabled)
They have same CPU, same HW model, even S/N shows they were produced in the same time. How is it possible to identify X5670 so differently? Any hints/suggestions what to check/change?
"Software" section of BLADE 2 (the good one):
OS Version: RHEL - 7 - 8.2003.0.el7.centos
OS Description: oVirt Node 4.3.10
Kernel Version: 3.10.0 - 1127.8.2.el7.x86_64
