Any plans on oVirt Major release with new feature?
by De Lee
Hi,
I would like to know if there is any plans for major release with new feature for consider alternative of other hypervisor?
I've been using the oracle ovirt for couple of years pretty good one. I would like know the future of oVirt as well along with feature plans.

How to re-enroll (or renew) host certificates for a single-host hosted-engine deployment?
by Derek Atkins
Hi,
I've got a single-host hosted-engine deployment that I originally
installed with 4.0 and have upgraded over the years to 4.3.10. I and some
of my users have upgraded remote-viewer and now I get an error when I try
to view the console of my VMs:
(remote-viewer:8252): Spice-WARNING **: 11:30:41.806:
../subprojects/spice-common/common/ssl_verify.c:477:openssl_verify: Error
in server certificate verification: CA signature digest algorithm too weak
(num=68:depth0:/O=<My Org Name>/CN=<Host's Name>)
I am 99.99% sure this is because the old certs use SHA1.
I reran engine-setup on the engine and it asked me if I wanted to renew
the PKI, and I answered yes. This replaced many[1] of the certificates in
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs on the engine, but it did not update the
Host's certificate.
All the documentation I've seen says that to refresh this certificate I
need to put the host into maintenance mode and then re-enroll.. However I
cannot do that, because this is a single-host system so I cannot put the
host in local mode -- there is no place to migrate the VMs (let alone the
Engine VM).
So.... Is there a command-line way to re-enroll manually and update the
host certs? Or some other way to get all the leftover certs renewed?
Thanks,
-derek
[1] Not only did it not update the Host's cert, it did not update any of
the vmconsole-proxy certs, nor the certs in /etc/pki/ovirt-vmconsole/, and
obviously nothing in /etc/pki/ on the host itself.

python-nmstate 2.2.27 and ovirt network setup
by Bill James
We have a ovirt-host-4.5.0-3.el9.x86_64 cluster.
I just recently ran yum update and it upgraded python-nmstate from
python3-libnmstate-2.0.0-2.el9.noarch to python3-libnmstate-
2.2.27-2.el9_4.x86_64.
This broken ovirt's ability to update the network config:

that VERSION file, along with many other files, are not in 2.2.27 version
of python-nmstate rpm.
My fix was to downgrade the rpm.
dnf install python3-libnmstate-2.0.0-2.el9.noarch
I'm sure that's not the best solution as I can no longer run dnf update.
Ideas?

Re: 4.5.4 Hosted-Engine: change hosted-engine storage
by Novak, Sam
I'm in the midst of deploying a new EL9 hosted-engine for an existing
cluster and it has been an absolute nightmare, and I haven't found any
documentation or guidance to account for this type of scenario, which is
odd, considering that the EOL for Cent 8 was announced a while ago. I know
this is all best effort type work, and I'm very appreciative of that effort,
but it's really making me re-think my use case unfortunately.

Re: Failed to read or parse '/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/engine.p12'
by Novak, Sam
Yeah I has to convert all of my P12's to use AES
cd /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/
for E in $(ls *.p12); do
openssl pkcs12 -in $E -out $E.key -nocerts -nodes -passin file:pass.txt
openssl pkcs12 -in $E -out $E.crt -nokeys -nodes -passin file:pass.txt

aes-256-cbc -certpbe aes-256-cbc -passin file:pass.txt
done
You'll also need to make sure you set the file owners and permissions like
the original files.

Problem importing storage domain from oVirt 4.3.10 to 4.5.5
by Sumit Basu
Hi,
I want to import a FC storage domain from an oVirt 4.3.10 setup to a fresh installed oVirt 4.5.5.
I could move domain to maintenance, detach, remove from 4.3.10 and import with activate option to 4.5.5 for one FC LUN fine.
When i tried for the second FC lun - during import,activate i get "Error while executing action Attach Storage Domain: Internal Engine Error" and in engine.log i get " Query 'GetUnregisteredDisksQuery' failed: null',
and on the standalone engine, i get :-
2024-06-26 07:15:07,277+05 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.storage.domain.AttachStorageDomainToPoolCommand] (default task-102) [] An error occurred while fetching unregistered disks from Storage Domain id 'a5a72b44-f9bc-4e5b-ab43-ca2b1d97b429'

I have checked using "Scan Disk" on the FC lun before exporting from 4.3.10 and there were no floating disks. I have checked if any of the VM's on the domain have any of their disks on any other storage domain - there are none.
On the host used for importing the domain, i get :-

4.5.4 with Ceph only storage
by Maurice Burrows
Hey ... A long story short ... I have an existing Red Hat Virt / Gluster hyperconverged solution that I am moving away from.
I have an existing Ceph cluster that I primarily use for OpenStack and a small requirement for S3 via RGW.
I'm planning to build a new oVirt 4.5.4 cluster on RHEL9 using Ceph for all storage requirements. I've read many online articles on oVirt and Ceph, and they all seem to use the Ceph iSCSI gateway, which is now in maintenance, so I'm not real keen to commit to iSCSI.
So my question is, IS there any reason I cannot use CephFS for both hosted-engine and as a data storage domain?
I'm currently running Ceph Pacific FWIW.
Cheers

Error importing OVA on Ovirt-4.5.4 - no value for $TERM is defined
by raulmevi2＠hotmail.com
Hello,
I'm facing an issue where, in a new fresh installed Oracle OLVM - Ovirt 4.5.4, self-hosted engine with NFS shared storage.
That an .OVA file cannot be imported.
Steps to reproduce:
- Created test virtual machine in an NFS storage domain, installed it, allright working fine.
- Shutdown test VM
- Export test VM to a purposedly created directory /home/vdsm, whose owner is vdsm:kvm with full permissions.
- Export .OVA file concludes successfully and the file is created at that location
Then, in the exact same server, same datacenter.
- Rename source VM so it doesn't conflict because the same name (same result if I delete the source VM)
- try to import the .OVA. using the GUI. It finds successfully the file at the specified location and begins the procedure
-# up to a given point, it fails without more indications at the web GUI. No more info at the "events" than "Failed to import vm Test to Datacenter".
Fiddling into the logs, I was able to find in the hosted-engine VM, at /var/log/ovirt-engine/ova the log that goes by "ovirt-ova-external-data-ansible-DATE-HostFQDN-uuid.log" an error that specifiies
stdout_lines" : [ "tput: No value for $TERM and no -T specified", "tput: No value for $TERM and no -T specified", "tput: No value for $TERM and no -T specified"
I tinkered with the ansible role that calls a python script called "get_ova_data.py" (located at /usr/share/ovirt-engine/ansible-runner-service-project/project/roles-/ovirt-ova-external-data/)
I tried to define the variable TERM into null or into xterm but then it fails in another manner complaining about that variable.
By surfing the webs, it seems something calls "tput" like if it was in console mode but then it breaks.
Can I have some help with this, please?
Thanks
