What does the ovirtmgmt service do & how do I work withit in regards to networking
by louisb＠ameritech.net 20 Apr '22

20 Apr '22

I've installed ovirt 4.4.10 several times and found myself not being able to reach out to the internet to perform updates to the OS or ovirt. When installing ovirt I've accepted the defaults and found that networking on my server has stopped working. I've also noticed that the ovirtmgmt service has taken over the network port/NIC that I've assigned in the DNS. My server has six/6 NIC's installed but after the install of ovirt with the defaults I'm unable to perform another network functions other than go to ovirt. How do i get ovirt to co-exist on the server as it relates to networking. I just have the OS & GUI installed and then ovirt. I've checked the firewall and not found anything out the ordinary. When this happens what can I do to get things back to normal, the ability to apply OS and ovirt updates? I'm going to install ovirt again making sure that I don't take the default regarding the firewall, maybe this will help? Thanks

NVIDIA vgpu mdev/mediated devices are getting deleted/removed after VM shutdown with ovirt
by sandipt＠nvidia.com 19 Apr '22

19 Apr '22

Hi Team, NVIDIA vgpu mdev/mediated devices are getting deleted/removed after VM shutdown with ovirt. How I can make them persistent even after VM shutdown/poweroff ? I want to set some vgpu parameter in file /sys/bus/mdev/devices/vgpu-id/nvidia/vgpu_params for testing to mdev. But can't do as uuid of mdev are not persistent. mdev are not there in /sys/bus/mdev/devices/ after VM shutdown. We were using RHV/Red Hat Virtualization Host 4.4.10 host with NVIDIA vGPU. virsh commands are helping. Can you please help?

USB3 redirection
by Rik Theys 19 Apr '22

19 Apr '22

Hi, I'm trying to assign a USB3 controller to a CentOS 7.4 VM in oVirt 4.1 with USB redirection enabled. I've created the following file in /etc/ovirt-engine/osinfo.conf.d: 01-usb.properties with content os.other.devices.usb.controller.value = nec-xhci and have restarted ovirt-engine. If I disable USB-support in the web interface for the VM, the xhci controller is added to the VM (I can see it in the qemu-kvm commandline), but usb redirection is not available. If I enable USB-support in the UI, no xhci controller is added (only 4 uhci controllers). Is there a way to make the controllers for usb redirection xhci controllers?

OVN routing and firewalling in oVirt
by Gianluca Cecchi 19 Apr '22

19 Apr '22

Hello, how do we manage routing between different OVN networks in oVirt? And between OVN networks and physical ones? Based on architecture read here: http://openvswitch.org/support/dist-docs/ovn-architecture.7.html I see terms for logical routers and gateway routers respectively but how to apply to oVirt configuration? Do I have to choose between setting up a specialized VM or a physical one: is it applicable/advisable to put on oVirt host itself the gateway functionality? Is there any security policy (like security groups in Openstack) to implement? Thanks, Gianluca

OVN in oVirt : practical use cases
by ravi k 17 Apr '22

17 Apr '22

Hello, I was exploring OVN in oVirt and got thinking as to where it's practical use cases are? Folks who've implemented it in their production environments, can you please explain how you are using OVN in your environment. It seemed to be a bit complex for implementing and maintaining. It might be complex to me because I'm still fairly new to it. So is the OVN/OVS implementation geared towards teams that build the backend functionalities for virtualization softwares like VMware NSX etc? Hence my question asking if there are any practical benefits to using OVN/OVS in a regular virtualization environment. For example, if we're a financial or automobile setup where we use oVirt for provisioning VMs, what extra value does OVN/OVS add if we were to use it. Regards, Ravi

Emulex OneConnect 10Gb NICs on Ovirt 4.4.10
by thkam＠hua.gr 16 Apr '22

16 Apr '22

Hi We have a large number of HP servers where we use Ovirt and we are having problems upgrading the nodes to Ovirt 4.4.10 More specifically the servers have the Emulex OneConnect 10Gb NICs and what we did in previous Ovirt node installations was to download the driver rpm (e.g. kmod-be2net-12.0.0.0-8.el8_5.elrepo.x86_64.rpm) and then install it using "rpm -ivh ... " and carrying out "modprobe be2net" For 4.18.0-365 we could not find a separate rpm but it looks like this was included in kernel-modules-4.18.0-365.el8.x86_64.rpm (https://centos.pkgs.org/8-stream/centos-baseos-x86_64/kernel-modules-4.18.0…) which is already installed. "modprobe be2net" produces no errors but the network interfaces do not show up in "ip -a" even after reboot. Are we missing something here, or is our infrastructure unusable with 4.4.10? Things were working for 4.4.9. Thanks!

Storage domain out of space need help
by louisbohm＠gmail.com 15 Apr '22

15 Apr '22

Running Oracle VM (Ovirt 4.3) on Oracle Linux 7.8. Storage Domain (comprised of local disks in RAID10) is out of space. We have 2 VMs on this physical host. One of them is up (the important one). One of them is down. The VM that is down is a test VM and if there is a way I can delete it from the disk and recover the disk space. I can also purchase more physical disks and add them to the system but then how do I grow the Storage domain if its state is INACTIVE? I also have a second physical server running Linux acting as a NFS server. I would happily add the NFS space to this Storage domain and move the TEST vm to the NFS space. Can some one help explain how I can fix this with out destroying the currently working VM? I have created a backup of the data on the VM but it would be very painful if I had to rebuild it. Thanks,

Confused Newby - RHEL 9.0Beta
by Trevor Monaghan 14 Apr '22

14 Apr '22

Hello Friends at oVirt, I set up a MINI PC as to host with the modest aim of hosting a couple of VMs. I mainly decided on Red Hat for its easy of use when setting up RAID1 with a pair of NVme SSDs. vSphere does not support RAID Ubuntu the option of setting up RAID is not available or hard to locate even after Googling into for hours... Never mind, now set up with RHEL 9.0Beta I was not able also to learn if it requires upgrading to RHV 4.4 Then I came across oVirt and became confused between both with Cokpit that is also mentioning that Ovirt can be an addon. At the moment RHEL 9.0Beta works fine and could do without breaking the system. Is there a need to upgrade it to RHV 4.4? As the existing Virtualisaton of RHEL 9.0Beta is rather light or perhaps I need oVirt to access its full potentional? What confuses me is that Red Hat indicates RHV 4.4 to be a great enterprise solution however based on the features available to me when Cokpit is used is rather contradictory when compared to other technologies available even for free. It could be amazing to hear from you, Wish you well, Trevor

That's really strange.Do you see any errors in the HE logs (after the situation get better)?

I have a hyper-converged Ovirt cluster with a hosted-engine, and whenever I reboot/shutdown one of the nodes for testing (a node that is not hosting the engine VM of course) the engine goes crazy and too slow, and starts losing network connecting to the remaining (healthy) nodes in the cluster, and I can hardly SSH into it. Ping also has too many drops while another node is down. Once that faulty node is up again the engine works very fine, but this is really limiting my ability to make further Ovirt HA tests before moving to production. I though maybe the promiscuous mode on the physical host causes this, but never faced this with nester-virtualization with VMware, and turning-off promiscuous mode isn’t an option either… what do you think please?

Cannot remove Snapshot. Related operation is currently in progress. Please try again later.
by Martin Marusinec 13 Apr '22

13 Apr '22

Hello, my storage got disconnected during the image migration, resulting is stuck migration. Task had been cleaned with restart of vdsdm service, but lead to stuck disk image. The VM got powered down in the meantime, and currently I cannot do anything with it, I always get a message like "Cannot.... Related operation is currently in progress." I already used the unlock_entity.sh script, it cleaned something, but did not help me. I cannot delete the VM, delete the disk, delete the snapshots. I even deleted the wrong snapshot from disk. All I need is it get rid of the VM and its disk, as I can restore it from the backup. Could you please somebody try to navigate me how to solve the problem?

Couldn't connect to VDSM within 60 seconds
by pasquale.borrelli＠synlab.it 11 Apr '22

11 Apr '22

Hi, we have 3 hosts and a self-hosted engine VM (ovirt version 4.4.). After rebooting all the hosts, we are unable to start the VM hosted-engine. In particular, the output of 'hosted-engine --vm-start' is as follows: "The hosted engine configuration has not been retrieved from shared storage yet, for more details please check sanlock status." We checked the sanlock, ovirt-ha-agent and broker status but all are "active (running)". Checking the log files, all share the common error "RuntimeError: Couldn't connect to VDSM within 60 second", returned in loop. In the vdsm.log we found this error: " 2022-04-05 16:20:11,786+0200 INFO (periodic/0) [vdsm.api] START repoStats(domains=()) from=internal, task_id=8541000f-e7fd-4b59-8ae6-522c87538688 (api:48) 2022-04-05 16:20:11,786+0200 INFO (periodic/0) [vdsm.api] FINISH repoStats return={} from=internal, task_id=8541000f-e7fd-4b59-8ae6-522c87538688 (api:54) 2022-04-05 16:20:11,789+0200 WARN (periodic/0) [root] Failed to retrieve Hosted Engine HA info, is Hosted Engine setup finished?

Ovirt 4.4.10 lab unstable on ESXi
by Mohamed Roushdy 11 Apr '22

11 Apr '22

Hello, I’m used to having a nested-ESXi on another ESXi, but we are testing Ovirt these days, and we are facing a strange behavior with the engine VM. I have a hyper-converged Ovirt cluster with a hosted-engine, and whenever I reboot/shutdown one of the nodes for testing (a node that is not hosting the engine VM of course) the engine goes crazy and too slow, and starts losing network connecting to the remaining (healthy) nodes in the cluster, and I can hardly SSH into it. Ping also has too many drops while another node is down. Once that faulty node is up again the engine works very fine, but this is really limiting my ability to make further Ovirt HA tests before moving to production. I though maybe the promiscuous mode on the physical host causes this, but never faced this with nester-virtualization with VMware, and turning-off promiscuous mode isn’t an option either… what do you think please?

Ovirt 4.4 - (Restore from 4.3): The provided authorization grant for the auth code has expired. (all Users)
by fabian.mohren＠qbeyond.de 11 Apr '22

11 Apr '22

Hi, we install ovirt 4.4 on a fresh Redhat 8.5 Installation. Next Restore the oVirt Backup (https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/upgrade_guide/#Remote_Upgrading_from_4-3) We use a external Certificate.I copy all certs/key from old installation to the new Manager. No matter with which user I log in - the same error message always appears. Also create a new user - had no success. Same error message Unfortunately there is nothing new in the logfile - except exactly this message. Setting the log level to "DEBUG" for all services did not bring any new or clearer error messages. The time is set correctly - this can almost not be the cause. Unfortunately I have no idea what the cause is and how I can solve this - I hope you have another idea. Thanks & many greetings

Post again after subscribing the mail list. Hi guys I have an all in one ovirt environment which node installed both vdsm and ovirt-engine. I have setup the ovirt environment and it could work well. For some reasons, i have to use this ovirt with node's networking down(i unplugged the network cable) In such case, I noticed that i cannot start a VM anymore. I wonder if there is a configuration switch to enable a ovirt to work with node's networking down ? if not, may i possible to make it work by a easy way ? When i tried to start VM with ovirt API, it responses with: ```bash [root@74d2ab9cb0 ~]# sh start.sh <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <action> <async>false</async> <fault> <detail>[Cannot run VM. Unknown Data Center status.]</detail> <reason>Operation Failed</reason> </fault> <status>failed</status> </action> [root@74d2ab9cb0 ~]# sh start.sh <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <action> <async>false</async> <fault> <detail>[Cannot run VM. Unknown Data Center status.]</detail> <reason>Operation Failed</reason> </fault> <status>failed</status> </action> [root@74d2ab9cb0 ~]# ``` Attached the vdsm and ovirt-engine Thanks Zhijian

Wait for the engine to come up on the target vm

I'm trying to deploy oVirt from a self-hosted engine, but at the last step I get an engine startup error. [ INFO ] TASK [Wait for the engine to come up on the target VM] [ ERROR ] fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"attempts": 120, "changed": true, "cmd": ["hosted-engine", "--vm-status", "--json"], "delta": "0:00:00.181846", "end": "2022-03-28 15:41:28.853150", "rc": 0, "start": "2022-03-28 15:41:28.671304", "stderr": "", "stderr_lines": [], "stdout": "{\"1\": {\"conf_on_shared_storage\": true, \"live-data\": true, \"extra\": \"metadata_parse_version=1\\nmetadata_feature_version=1\\ntimestamp=5537 (Mon Mar 28 15:41:20 2022)\\nhost-id=1\\nscore=3400\\nvm_conf_refresh_time=5537 (Mon Mar 28 15:41:20 2022)\\nconf_on_shared_storage=True\\nmaintenance=False\\nstate=EngineStarting\\nstopped=False\\n\", \"hostname\": \"v2.test.ru\", \"host-id\": 1, \"engine-status\": {\"reason\": \"failed liveliness check\", \"health\": \"bad\", \"vm\": \"up\", \"detail\": \"Up\"}, \"score\": 3400, \"stopped\": false, \"maintenance\": false, \"crc32\": \"4d2eeaea\", \"local_conf_timestamp\": 5537, \"host-ts\": 5537}, \"global_maintenance\": false}", "stdout_lines": ["{\"1\": {\"conf_on_shared_storage\": true, \"live-data\": true, \"extra\": \"metadata_parse_version=1\\nmetadata_feature_version=1\\ntimestamp=5537 (Mon Mar 28 15:41:20 2022)\\nhost-id=1\\nscore=3400\\nvm_conf_refresh_time=5537 (Mon Mar 28 15:41:20 2022)\\nconf_on_shared_storage=True\\nmaintenance=False\\nstate=EngineStarting\\nstopped=False\\n\", \"hostname\": \"v2.test.ru\", \"host-id\": 1, \"engine-status\": {\"reason\": \"failed liveliness check\", \"health\": \"bad\", \"vm\": \"up\", \"detail\": \"Up\"}, \"score\": 3400, \"stopped\": false, \"maintenance\": false, \"crc32\": \"4d2eeaea\", \"local_conf_timestamp\": 5537, \"host-ts\": 5537}, \"global_maintenance\": false}"]} Аfter the installation is completed, the condition of the engine is as follows: Engine status: {"reason": "failed liveliness check", "health": "bad", "vm": "up", "detail": "Up"} After reading the vdsm.logs, I found that qemu-guest-agent failed to connect to the engine for some reason.

Setting a temporary password (hosted-engine --add-console-password --password) and connecting via VNC also failed. Using "hosted-engine --console" also failed to connect The engine VM is running on this host Connected to HostedEngine domain Escaping character: ^] error: internal error: character device <null> not found The network settings are configured using static addressing, without DHCP. It seems to me that this is due to the fact that the engine receives an IP address that does not match the entry in /etc/hosts, but I do not know how to fix it. Any help is welcome, I will provide the necessary logs. Thanks

Gluster storage and TRIM VDO
by Oleh Horbachov 08 Apr '22

08 Apr '22

Hello everyone. I have a Gluster distributed replication cluster deployed. The cluster - store for ovirt. For bricks - VDO over a raw disk. When discarding via 'fstrim -av' the storage hangs for a few seconds and the connection is lost. Does anyone know the best practices for using TRIM with VDO in the context of ovirt? ovirt - v4.4.10 gluster - v8.6
