Cannot remove template because a disk is based on it
by nicolas＠devels.es 04 Oct '23

04 Oct '23

Hi, We're running oVirt 4.5. We have a template which we'd like to get rid of, there are no VMs based on it. However, trying to remove it oVirt states that: Cannot remove Template. The following Disk(s) are based on it: (b54ee1cb-ed64-4db4-bd3d-eac8b22ea095) . When opening the 'Disks' subtab in the template, it appears a disk (screenshot attached). However, when opening the oVirt Storage->Disks option, I cannot find the disk by the ID, not even ordering the ID column and trying to find it visually. Can anyone point to the problem and a possible solution/workaround? Thanks.

Unable to add KVM (ubuntu flavour)hypervisors on Ovirt engine.
by spp16121991＠gmail.com 26 Sep '23

26 Sep '23

Hi all, I am a noob in KVM. I am a VMware engineer. I have created a lab environment to where i have hosted KVM as nested hypervisors within esxi. I have a vsan environment. I want to create a similar KVM environment. hence, i have deployed 3 kvm hypervisors (nested) i have deployed Ovirt-manager ( equivalent to vcenter) to host/manage my KVM hypervisors. to deploy Ovirt-manager, i installed ovirt packages in centos VM. Because ovirt pacjages are not available in ubuntu, hence choose centos. next is i want to add kvm hypervisors on ovirt manager similar to how we add esxi hosts to vcenter. That is where i am failing. From my limited understanding in KVM, ovirt is looking for yum package manager , KVM are ubuntu flavoured, hence it has apt package manager. What my ask is, can this be fixed? is there a file i need to edit in ovirt-engine.? Can Ovirt-manager host KVM of ubuntu flavour? Please advise. Checked the ovirt logs: Here is the log excerpts: ---------------------------------------------- } ], "python3-oauthlib" : [ { "name" : "python3-oauthlib", "version" : "3.1.0-1ubuntu2", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-openssl" : [ { "name" : "python3-openssl", "version" : "19.0.0-1build1", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-pexpect" : [ { "name" : "python3-pexpect", "version" : "4.6.0-1build1", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-pkg-resources" : [ { "name" : "python3-pkg-resources", "version" : "45.2.0-1ubuntu0.1", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-problem-report" : [ { "name" : "python3-problem-report", "version" : "2.20.11-0ubuntu27.27", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-ptyprocess" : [ { "name" : "python3-ptyprocess", "version" : "0.6.0-1ubuntu1", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-pyasn1" : [ { "name" : "python3-pyasn1", "version" : "0.4.2-3build1", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-pyasn1-modules" : [ { "name" : "python3-pyasn1-modules", "version" : "0.2.1-0.2build1", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-pymacaroons" : [ { "name" : "python3-pymacaroons", "version" : "0.13.0-3", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-pyrsistent" : [ { "name" : "python3-pyrsistent", "version" : "0.15.5-1build1", "arch" : "amd64", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-requests" : [ { "name" : "python3-requests", "version" : "2.22.0-2ubuntu1.1", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-requests-unixsocket" : [ { "name" : "python3-requests-unixsocket", "version" : "0.2.0-2", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-secretstorage" : [ { "name" : "python3-secretstorage", "version" : "2.3.1-2ubuntu1", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-serial" : [ { "name" : "python3-serial", "version" : "3.4-5.1", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-service-identity" : [ { "name" : "python3-service-identity", "version" : "18.1.0-5build1", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-setuptools" : [ { "name" : "python3-setuptools", "version" : "45.2.0-1ubuntu0.1", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-simplejson" : [ { "name" : "python3-simplejson", "version" : "3.16.0-2ubuntu2", "arch" : "amd64", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-six" : [ { "name" : "python3-six", "version" : "1.14.0-2", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-software-properties" : [ { "name" : "python3-software-properties", "version" : "0.99.9.12", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-systemd" : [ { "name" : "python3-systemd", "version" : "234-3build2", "arch" : "amd64", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-twisted" : [ { "name" : "python3-twisted", "version" : "18.9.0-11ubuntu0.20.04.2", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-twisted-bin" : [ { "name" : "python3-twisted-bin", "version" : "18.9.0-11ubuntu0.20.04.2", "arch" : "amd64", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], "python3-update-manager" : [ { "name" : "python3-update-manager", "version" : "1:20.04.10.11", "arch" : "all", "category" : "python", "origin" : "Ubuntu", "source" : "apt" } ], ============================== "duration" : 2.05353, "event_loop" : null, "uuid" : "f72c96ea-2491-4612-807e-37da9d563d4d" } } } 2023-09-15 03:18:41 EDT -

Impossibile to install a new system
by Andrea Chierici 22 Sep '23

22 Sep '23

Dear all, I've been struggling with a new ovirt installation for several weeks but I seem to have no luck at all. I've tried both starting from a centos8 stream system and a ovirt-node, but the engine installation always breaks here: TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Wait for the host to be up] I keep getting the same problem, it looks like the engine is not "migrated" to the public ip and is stuck on the natted address that the installation process is using during the preliminary phase. Here is a message that seems to confirm my theory: 2023-09-19 15:43:29,259+0200 DEBUG otopi.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.ansible_utils ansible_utils._process_output:109 {'msg': "The task includes an option with an undefined variable. The error was: 'local_vm_ip' is undefined\n\nThe error appears to be in '/usr/share/ansible/collections/ansible_collections/ovirt/ovirt/roles/hosted_engine_setup/tasks/sync_on_engine_machine.yml': line 2, column 3, but may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.\n\nThe offending line appears to be:\n\n---\n- name: Set the name for add_host\n ^ here\n", '_ansible_no_log': False} 2 I know the problem the development of ovirt is facing lately, but I am simply wondering: is there a way to install ovirt 4.5.4 today or is it all already lost??! Any kind of help would be really appreciated. Thanks, Andrea -- Andrea Chierici - INFN-CNAF Viale Berti Pichat 6/2, 40127 BOLOGNA Office Tel: +39 051 2095463 SkypeID ataruz --

oVirt 4.5.4-1: engine-setup does not renew certificates
by Lars Stolpe 15 Sep '23

15 Sep '23

Hi, I wanted to add short names to the webgui apache certificate. I followed these instructions: „Engine can be accessed using alternate host names (or IP addresses) that can configured by adding a new configuration file (for example /etc/ovirt-engine/engine.conf.d/99-custom-sso-setup.conf) with following content: SSO_ALTERNATE_ENGINE_FQDNS="alias1.example.com alias2.example.com" The list of alternate names has to be listed separated by spaces. It's possible to add also IP addresses of engine host, but using IP addresses instead of DNS names is not considered to be a good practise. Run engine-setup to generate new certificates.“ Certificates where not renewed. How do i get engine-setup to renew the apache certificate? oVirt: 4.5.4-1 Regards, Lars

Version 4.5. How should I properly replace a failed host?
by ziyi Liu 12 Sep '23

12 Sep '23

gluster uses 2+1 arbitration mode My host is damaged and I need to reinstall the system. The host fqdn still uses the old fqdn. What should I do? I found some historical information. Is it still usable for the new version? Found gluster-ansible in GitHub https://github.com/gluster/gluster-ansible/blob/master/playbooks/hc-ansible… See the instructions and configure node_prep_inventory.yml and node_replace_inventory.yml to restore. Execute ansible-playbook -i node_prep_inventory.yml -i node_replace_inventory.yml tasks/replace_node.yml My data disk /dev/sdb has also been initialized by me. Can this ansible script help me create a new partition, create a mount, and complete the recovery of the gluster node?
