when i search for this problem, i found that column "count_threads_as_cores" is added from ovirt-engine 4.4.6.7. and ovirt-dwh 4.4.7.
do i need to update 4.4.3 to 4.4.6( or 4.4.7) then 4.4.6(or 4.4.7) to 4.4.9?

It's because we have to use a proxy. It is configured on the host but
setup does not deliver it into the appliance (temporarily HE). So what
to do? Howto tell setup to use a proxy in HE appliance?
Thank you for hits!

Ensure that all qemu-related packages are coming from centos-advanced-virtualization repo (6.0.0-33.el8s.x86_64).
There is a known issue with the latest packages in the CentOS Stream.
Also, you can set the following alias on the Hypervisours:

I am having a problem with the hosted-engine deployment, and unfortunately after a weekend spent trying to get this far, I am finally stuck, and cannot figure out how to fix this.
I am starting with 1 host, and will have 4 when this is finished. Storage is GlusterFS, hyperconverged, but I am managing that myself outside of oVirt. It's a single-node GlusterFS volume, which I will expand out across the other 4 nodes as well. I get all the way through the initial hosted-engine deployment (via the cockpit interface) pre-storage, then get most of the way through the storage portion of it. It fails at starting the HostedEngine VM in its final state after copying the VM disk to shared storage.
This is where it gets weird.
[ ERROR ] fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Engine VM IP address is while the engine's he_fqdn ovirt.deleted.domain resolves to 192.168.x.x. If you are using DHCP, check your DHCP reservation configuration"}
I've masked out the domain and IP for obvious reasons. However I think this deployment error isn't really the reason for the failure, it's just where it is at when it fails. The HostedEngine VM is starting, but not actually booting. I was able to change the VNC password with `hosted-engine --add-console-password`, and see the local console display with that, however it just displays "The guest has not initialized the display (yet)".
I also did:
# hosted-engine --consoleThe engine VM is running on this hostEscape character is ^]
Yet that doesn't move any further, nor allow any input. The VM does not respond on the network. I am thinking it's just not making it to the initial BIOS screen and booting at all. What would cause that?

Major problems after upgrading 2 (of 4) Red Hat hosts to 4.4.10
by David White
I have a Hyperconverged cluster with 4 hosts.
Gluster is replicated across 2 hosts, and a 3rd host is an arbiter node.
The 4th host is compute only.
I updated the compute-only node, as well as the arbiter node, early this morning. I didn't touch either of the actual storage nodes.That said, I forgot to upgrade the engine.
oVirt Manager thinks that all but 1 of the hosts in the cluster are unhealthy. However, all 4 hosts are online. oVirt Manager (Engine) also keeps deactivating at least 1, if not 2 of the 3 (total) bricks behind each volume.
Even though the Engine thinks that only 1 host is healthy, VMs are clearly running on some of the other hosts. However, in troubleshooting, some of the customer VMs were turned off, and oVirt is refusing to start those VMs, because it only recognizes that 1 of the hosts is healthy -- and that host's resources are maxed out.
This afternoon, I went ahead and upgraded (and rebooted) the Engine VM, so it is now up-to-date. Unfortunately, that didn't resolve the issue. So I took one of the "unhealthy" hosts which didn't have any VMs on it (which was the host that is our compute-only server hosting no gluster data), and I used oVirt to "reinstall" the oVirt software. That didn't resolve the issue for that host.
How can I troubleshoot this? I need:
- To figure out why oVirt keeps trying to deactivate volumes
- From the command line, `gluster peer status` show all nodes connected, and all volumes appear to be healthy
- More importantly, I need to get these VMs that are currently down back online. Is there a way to somehow force oVirt to launch the VMs on the "unhealthy" nodes?
What logs should I be looking at? Any help would be greatly appreciated .

How does the Stream based management engine transition to RHV?
by Thomas Hoberg
In the recent days, I've been trying to validate the transition from CentOS 8 to Alma, Rocky, Oracle and perhaps soon Liberty Linux for existing HCI clusters.
I am using nested virtualization on a VMware workstation host, because I understand snapshoting and linked clones much better on VMware, even if I've tested nested virtualization to some degree with oVirt as well. It makes moving forth and back between distros and restarting failed oVirt deployments much easier and more reliable than ovirt-hosted-engine-cleanup.
Installing oVirt 4.10 on TrueCentOS systems, which had been freshly switched to Alma, Rocky and Oracle went relatively well, apart from Oracle pushing UEK kernels, which break VDO (and some Python2 mishaps).
I'm still testing transitioning pre-existing TrueCentOS HCI glusters to Alma, Rocky and Oracle.
While that solves the issue of having the hosts running a mature OS which is downstream of RHEL, there is still an issue with the management engine being based on the upstream stream release: It doesn't have the vulnerability managment baked in, which is required even for labs use in an enterprise.
So I'd like to ask our Redhat friends here: How does this work when releases of oVirt transition to RHV? Do you backport oVirt changes from Stream to RHEL? When bugs are found in that process, are they then fed back into oVirt or into the oVirt-to-RHEV proces?

CentOS 8.4 Linux hosts from 4.4.8 to Rocky Linux 4.4.10
by Gianluca Cecchi
Hello,
after updating the external engine from CentOS 8.4 and 4.4.8 to Rocky Linux
8.5 and 4.4.9 as outlined here:
https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/YUDJRC22SQP...
I went further and updated also the hosts.
Environment is with an external engine and 3 CentOS Linux 8.4 hosts in
4.4.8 with iSCSI storage domain.
Preliminarily I upgraded the engine to 4.4.10 (not yet the just released
async) without problems.
Then, one host at a time:
. put host into maintenance from web admin UI
Management --> Maintenance
. In a terminal f host set proxy for my environment needs
export https_proxy=http://my_proxy:my_proxy_port
export http_proxy=http://my_proxy:my_proxy_port (not sure if this
necessary...)
. in the same terminal execute migration script
./migrate2rocky.sh -r
. executed Management --> SSH Management --> SSH Restart from web admin ui
the host comes on in maintenance mode
. selected Installation --> Check for Upgrade but the host is detected as
already update
. for further security and to be sure that all upgrade steps are applied I
executed
Installation --> Reinstall
I deselected
- activate host after install
- reboot host after install
It went ok so
. executed Management --> SSH Management --> SSH Restart from web admin ui
the host comes on in maintenance mode
. Management --> Activate
. Empty another host moving its VMs to the just updated host and continue
in the same way, also electing as new SPM the updated host
All went smoothly and without VMs disruption.
Let's see how it goes next days with the light workload I have on this
testing environment.
Currently the async 1 of 4.4.10 is not catched up by engine-upgrade-check
command.. I'm going to retry applying again during the next few days.

mdadm vs. JBOD

Hi,
We are currently building a three node hyper-converged cluster based on oVirt Node and Gluster. While discussing the different storage layout we couldn't get to a final decision.
Currently our servers are equipped as follows:
- servers 1 & 2:
- Two 800GB disks for OS
- 100GB RAID1 used as LVM PV for OS
- Nine 7.68TB disks for Gluster
- 60TB RAID 5 used as LVM PV for Gluster
- server 3
- Two 800GB disks for OS & Gluster
- 100GB RAID 1 used as LVM PV for OS
- 700GB RAID 1 used as LVM PV for Gluster
Unfortunately I couldn't find much information about mdadm on this topic. The hyper-convergence guides ([1], [2]) seem to assume that there is either a hardware RAID in place or JBOD is used. Is there some documentation available on what to consider when using mdadm? Or would it be more sensible to just use JBOD and then add redundancy on the LVM or Gluster level?
If choosing to go with mdadm, what option should I choose in the bricks wizard screen (RAID 5 or JBOD)?
