CPU Compatibility with 4.5.4-1.el8 (4.7)
by mark.williams＠nist.gov 27 Jul '23

27 Jul '23

Having issue adding oVirt host using AlmaLinux 8/9 with systems using the sandybridge CPU Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 0 @ 2.90GHz. Error give CPU not compatible with Ovirt "compatibility type 4.7". Works with creating another Cluster at "compatibility type 4.3", but not 4.7. These host were re-purposed from RHV 4.3 Cluster. Any thoughts?

Connection to ovirt-imageio has failed
by masth.ganesh＠gmail.com 26 Jul '23

26 Jul '23

I am trying to upload an ISO onto the OLVM and I get the "connection to ovirt-imageio has failed" message when I test the connection. I have uploaded the certificates onto the web browser but for some reason I am unable to test the connection successfully. I have tried it on other browsers like Edge and Firefox as well.

Ovirt_Provider_Citrix-Xen
by rj.indramaya＠gmail.com 23 Jul '23

23 Jul '23

Hi All, First of all apology If i'm doing it wrong way. I could not find any solution so I hoped I'll get some answers here. In my Organization I started exploring the Ovirt-Engine, While I have created multiple VMs and all working fine I started facing one issue as in my organization we had Citrix Xen server which is out of date so I started working on migrating them directly to Ovirt-enigne. so I tried to add my Xen-server as a provider but its failing to load or connect with the Citrix-Xen. Let me know how should I move forward, Thanks in advance, people are amazing.

oVirt Host EL9 with UEFI Secure Boot
by Jorge Visentini 21 Jul '23

21 Jul '23

Hi there! Is this information still valid? To use Enterprise Linux 9 on virtualization hosts, the UEFI Secure Boot option must be disabled due to *Bug 2081648 - dmidecode module fails to decode DMI data <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2081648>*. I read that it was fixed in *python-dmidecode-3.12.3-1.el9* but we still use *python-3.11*. Is this bug only for hosted-engine or for standalone too? BR. -- Att, Jorge Visentini +55 55 98432-9868

Processors compatibility matrix oVirt
by Jorge Visentini 21 Jul '23

21 Jul '23

Do you have any documentation or compatibility matrix between oVirt and processors? How can I know if a processor is compatible? I ask because in the *lscpu* command I see 2 sockets, but in the *engine* I only see 1 socket. BR. -- Att, Jorge Visentini +55 55 98432-9868

ovirt with rocky linux kvm
by cynthiaberbery＠outlook.com 21 Jul '23

21 Jul '23

Hello, after installing multiple machines as rocky linux, Ovirt was chosen to be used to manage this infra. But adding these machines as "hosts" on ovirt always give: Error while executing action: Cannot add Host. Connecting to host via SSH has failed, verify that the host is reachable (IP address, routable address etc.) You may refer to the engine.log file for further details. Is rocky kvm supported on ovirt 4.3.10.4-1.el7? Do you have any contact with a supporting company/team for ovirt to check their support plan?

How to re-enroll a host with an active workload whose certificate expired
by David Johnson 20 Jul '23

20 Jul '23

Good evening all, I have a three host installation with a separate dedicated bare metal system for the engine, running Ovirt 4.5.2.4-1.el8. This afternoon, the engine lost communication with one of the hosts. The engine log says the certificate is expired. The official solution appears to be to put the host into maintenance mode then re-enroll it. Unfortunately, because the certificate is expired, the engine cannot switch to maintenance mode or control the VM's to shut them down. Error while executing action: Cannot switch Host to Maintenance mode. Host still has running VMs on it and is in Non Responsive state. See log excerpt below What is the correct way to update/reinstate a certificate in a running cluster when the engine does not acknowledge the host is operational due to an expired certificate? Thank you. *David Johnson* Log excerpt: 2023-07-20 16:27:46,904-05 INFO [org.ovirt.vdsm.jsonrpc.client.reactors.ReactorClient] (SSL Stomp Reactor) [] Connecting to /192.168.2.18 2023-07-20 16:27:46,904-05 INFO [org.ovirt.vdsm.jsonrpc.client.reactors.ReactorClient] (SSL Stomp Reactor) [] *Connected to /192.168.2.18:54321 <http://192.168.2.18:54321>* 2023-07-20 16:27:46,912-05 ERROR [org.ovirt.vdsm.jsonrpc.client.reactors.Reactor] (SSL Stomp Reactor) [] *Unable to process messages Received fatal alert: certificate_expired* 2023-07-20 16:27:46,914-05 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.monitoring.HostMonitoring] (EE-ManagedScheduledExecutorService-engineScheduledThreadPool-Thread-52) [] Unable to RefreshCapabilities: VDSNetworkException: VDSGenericException: VDSNetworkException: Received fatal alert: certificate_expired 2023-07-20 16:27:47,356-05 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.monitoring.HostMonitoring] (EE-ManagedScheduledExecutorService-engineScheduledThreadPool-Thread-34) [] Unable to RefreshCapabilities: ClientConnectionException: SSL session is invalid 2023-07-20 16:27:47,356-05 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.lock.InMemoryLockManager] (EE-ManagedScheduledExecutorService-engineScheduledThreadPool-Thread-34) [] Trying to release exclusive lock which does not exist, lock key: 'f69d35b2-7666-4ac6-8645-2f119cf2ce1cVDS_INIT' 2023-07-20 16:27:47,356-05 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.vdsbroker.GetCapabilitiesAsyncVDSCommand] (EE-ManagedScheduledExecutorService-engineScheduledThreadPool-Thread-34) [] Command 'org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.vdsbroker.GetCapabilitiesAsyncVDSCommand' return value 'org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.vdsbroker.VDSInfoReturn@7d03f4f0' 2023-07-20 16:27:47,356-05 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.vdsbroker.GetCapabilitiesAsyncVDSCommand] (EE-ManagedScheduledExecutorService-engineScheduledThreadPool-Thread-34) [] HostName = ovirt-host-03 2023-07-20 16:27:47,356-05 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.vdsbroker.GetCapabilitiesAsyncVDSCommand] (EE-ManagedScheduledExecutorService-engineScheduledThreadPool-Thread-34) [] Command 'GetCapabilitiesAsyncVDSCommand(HostName = ovirt-host-03, VdsIdAndVdsVDSCommandParametersBase:{hostId='f69d35b2-7666-4ac6-8645-2f119cf2ce1c', vds='Host[ovirt-host-03,f69d35b2-7666-4ac6-8645-2f119cf2ce1c]'})' execution failed: org.ovirt.vdsm.jsonrpc.client.ClientConnectionException: *SSL session is invalid*

First time user/setup
by jmred88＠gmail.com 20 Jul '23

20 Jul '23

Could someone explain to me the proper documentation I should be using for a standalone setup? I have one host with local storage/resources and would like that to both host and manage my VMs but I keep getting into the weeds with which documentation to follow.
