Out-of-sync networks can only be detached
by Sakhi Hadebe 27 Feb '23

27 Feb '23

Hi, I have a 3-node oVirt cluster. I have configured 2 logical networks: ovirtmgmt and public. Public logical network is attached in only 2 nodes and failing to attach on the 3rd node with the below error Invalid operation, out-of-sync network 'public' can only be detached. Please have been stuck on this for almost the whole day now. How do I fix this error? -- Regards, Sakhi Hadebe

VDSM Host command Get Host Capabilities failed: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target
by Vasudev.ippili＠broadcom.com 24 Feb '23

We have a situation where nodes are left in Unassigned state. SSL certificate was expired and even after cert update the nodes are not coming out of Unassigned state. Its not even going in maintenance mode as there are VMs on it (although they are not responding right now). Anyway we can remove the node from HE and add it back?

Re: Self-hosted engine 4.5.0 deployment fails

I would run the deploy again, wait until the engine is up and then from the server you are deploying the engine on # virsh list obtain the virtual machine number from the above command, in the example below we assume the number is 1 # virsh console 1 login as root wait for all packages to finish updating: tail -f /var/log/dnf.rpm.log then: # dnf downgrade postgresql-jdbc once that's done the deployment of the engine should get past the [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.engine_setup : Check if Engine health page is up] step.

Changing the Cluster Compatibility Version in hyperconverged environment
by lexxthefox＠gmail.com 25 Jan '23

25 Jan '23

Hi! I'm sorry if it is a noob question but it is very important for me. We are researching oVirt in our company and hope to use existing environment where there's no SAN/NAS solution. Just a bunch of servers. We were able to set up a hyperconverged installation with oVirt 4.4 a while ago and now I'm resuming research and trying to upgrade it to 4.5. I was able to upgrade HE and Hosts. What's left is to upgrade Cluster Compatibility Version from 4.5 to 4.7. I don't seem to find a way to do it as when I try to Edit cluster I get this error: "Cluster Compatibility Version". Upgrade Guide on https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/upgrade_guide/ does not have entries for hyperconverged set up. So I don't know where to look for information on this topic. Is it possible to achieve my goal at all? Can "frozen" Cluster Compatibility Version cause problems in the long run? I can rebuild the whole setup now when it is still being reviewed and planed. But if we start using it actively it won't be possible. I'm afraid that this could be a show-stopper in the long run. Thanks in advance!

oVirt + TrueNAS: Unable to create iSCSI domain - I am missing something obvious
by David Johnson 20 Jan '23

20 Jan '23

Good morning folks, and thank you in advance. I am working on migrating my oVirt backing store from NFS to iSCSI. *oVirt Environment:* oVirt Open Virtualization Manager Software Version:4.4.4.7-1.el8 *TrueNAS environment:* FreeBSD truenas.local 12.2-RELEASE-p11 75566f060d4(HEAD) TRUENAS amd64 The iSCSI share is on a TrueNAS server, exposed to user VDSM and group 36. oVirt sees the targeted share, but is unable to make use of it. The latest issue is "Error while executing action New SAN Storage Domain: Volume Group block size error, please check your Volume Group configuration, Supported block size is 512 bytes." As near as I can tell, oVirt does not support any block size other than 512 bytes, while TrueNAS's smallest OOB block size is 4k. I know that oVirt on TrueNAS is a common configuration, so I expect I am missing something really obvious here, probably a TrueNAS configuration needed to make TrueNAS work with 512 byte blocks. Any advice would be helpful. *David Johnson*

But it still does not work better. I don't see any other unvalid certificates in /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/, so I don't know which certificate is invalid for ovsdb. Thanks for any advice.

Re: Expand the disk space of the hosting engine

Thank you very much, I know the operation steps, but there is still one point that I don’t quite understand, fdisk -l only shows 50G, the actual disk allocation has 100G, how can I display the remaining 50G. The second question is that if the allocated 100G is also full, how should I expand it? I can’t expand it using wei ui

Split hosts in a new engine - oVirt 4.4.5
by francesco＠shellrent.com 30 Dec '22

30 Dec '22

Hello everyone! We have less than 500 hosts and ~800 vms handled by our engine and we could benefit from deploy another engine for splitting the workload (in ex.:we perform daily and weekly backup via python script, scheduled snapshot (dell+add). Is there any way for migrating/moving a host from an engine to a new one (same version, ofc)? I thought about export a backup and then import but then I'll have to "select" whihch host to import and remove all the structure (DC/cluster/host/storoge) from the old one... a bit tricky and dangerous, in my opinion. Anyone that has already done this? Thank you for your time and happy holidays! Francesco

Is there a way to auto choose which devices get redirected the the guest? I have a Windows 2022 VM and I can connect to is using the VM portal and Spice (virt-viewer) and it opens fullscreen perfectly. Perfect VDI solution... Except the fact that I have to click in the top menu and choose my usb devices every time I connect to the vm... I need it to save my selections... Any way to do this?

Network Address Change
by Paul.LKW 28 Dec '22

28 Dec '22

Hi All: I just has a case, I need to change the oVirt host and engine IP address due to data center decommission I checked in the hosted-engine host there are some files I could change ; in ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf ca_subject="O=simple.com, CN=1.2.3.4" gateway=1.2.3.254 and of course I need to change the ovirtmgmt interface IP too, I think just change the above line could do the tick, but where could I change the other host IP in the cluster ? I think I have to be lost all the host as once changed the hosted-engine host IP as it is in diff. sub net. Does there any command line tools could do that or someone has such experience could share? Best Regards, Paul.LKW

VM stuck reading and writing to disk
by Murilo Morais 28 Dec '22

28 Dec '22

Good morning people. I'm experiencing a weird problem. I have a specific VM that the IO simply crashes. This VM, during the backup period, executes mysqldump and tries to compress, after a long period of compacting the JBD2 process appears using 100% of the CPU and also of WA (Wait in the TOP command). Numerous other VMs perform the same process but only this one remains in this state. When JBD2 appears, it is necessary to perform a forced reboot, because it stops practically everything. I'm using CephFS as Storage Backend. In the VM I can get rates of at least 600 Megs, I can generate gigs and more gigs of data without any problem. The VMs are using Virtio instead of Virtio-blk. Hosts are interconnected on 10G SFP+ interfaces, Storages on 40G interfaces. I believe that the problem is not the Storage, as this behavior does not exist in other VMs. What I find strange is that JBD2 goes up and spikes at 100%. What could be happening? Could it be something in the Guest itself?

Certificate expiration w/o warning on all clients. Cluster in zombie state
by Gilboa Davara 28 Dec '22

28 Dec '22

Hello all, Even though I do my best to keep track of the certificate issue date across my different clusters, I somehow missed the vdsm certificate expiration in one of my clusters. Now I have an active cluster with multiple nodes (self-hosted / gluster storage), vdsm service is down on all nodes (due to certificate expiration) - hence, I cannot get the cluster into global maintenance mode (vdsms are down), and I cannot access my engine (to renew the engine certificates / re-enroll hosts). How can manual renew the host certificate? Thanks, Gilboa

Unable to sync network settings on new Ovirt installation
by Patrick Lomakin 24 Dec '22

24 Dec '22

Hi guys! I encountered a network error that I had not encountered before in a previous installation. I need to set up another network in addition to the ovirtmgmt network to migrate virtual machines, because when migrating a large number of machines, the ovirtmgmt network is loaded to its maximum. And as you know and documentation - all or none of the networks must or must not have a QoS rule. After creating the migration network, I added this network QoS rule and also added QoS to the ovirtmgmt network. But I get this kind of error - Error while executing action HostSetupNetworks: Unknown exception. In the logs I noticed the following: {'reason': "(2, 'Error: TC classifier not found.\nWe have an error talking to the kernel\\n', ['/sbin/tc', 'filter', 'replace', 'dev', 'bond0', 'protocol', 'all', 'parent', '1389:', 'pref', '200', 'basic', 'match', 'meta(vlan eq 200)', 'flowid', '1389:c8')"} Who can tell me where to put my energy to find a solution?) Good luck everyone!
