oVirt CLI tool for automation tasks
by munnadawood＠gmail.com 29 Jun '26

29 Jun '26

We recently migrated from VMware to oVirt. I am looking for any CLI tool well suited for my automation tasks like VM create, clone, migrate 100s of Virtual machines in oVirt cluster. with VMware I was using govc (vSphere CLI built on top of govmomi). Another option I read is powercli, quite unsure if it works with oVirt. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thanks!

Hosted Engine Deployment timeout waiting for VM
by Jonas Liechti 09 Feb '26

09 Feb '26

Hello users, I am currently trying to deploy the self-hosted engine via the web interface but it seems stuck at the task "Wait for the local VM" (https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-ansible-collection/blob/master/roles/hosted_…) I am unsure what to look at for getting more info as I haven't worked a lot with Ansible before. Do you have any idea how to debug? The temporary IP is added to /etc/hosts and I can also login to the VM via SSH: [root@server-005 ~]# cat /etc/hosts 192.168.1.97 ovirt-engine-test.admin.int.rabe.ch # temporary entry added by hosted-engine-setup for the bootstrap VM 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 10.128.16.5 server-005.admin.int.rabe.ch 10.128.16.6 server-006.admin.int.rabe.ch 10.128.16.7 server-007.admin.int.rabe.ch #10.128.32.2 ovirt-engine-test.admin.int.rabe.ch 10.132.16.5 server-005.storage.int.rabe.ch 10.132.16.6 server-006.storage.int.rabe.ch 10.132.16.7 server-007.storage.int.rabe.ch [root@server-005 ~]# ssh ovirt-engine-test.admin.int.rabe.ch root(a)ovirt-engine-test.admin.int.rabe.ch's password: Web console: https://ovirt-engine-test.admin.int.rabe.ch:9090/ or https://192.168.1.97:9090/ Last login: Mon Apr 18 11:33:53 2022 from 192.168.1.1 [root@ovirt-engine-test ~]# ip a 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 ::1/128 scope host valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 00:16:3e:58:7a:a3 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.1.97/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global dynamic noprefixroute eth0 valid_lft 2313sec preferred_lft 2313sec inet6 fe80::216:3eff:fe58:7aa3/64 scope link valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever Thank you for any tips for debugging.

In that case, you have to go through setting size and adding nic after vm boot. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance/

Unable to upload or download iso via admin portal

Hi, I'm having a trouble on fresh 4.4.10.7 installation (on oracle linux), I'm not able to upload or download any file using storage domain upload image function. I've imported CA certificate and have tried on several browsers (firefow, chrome,edge), on different computers (and browsers are green - claiming that I'm securely connected), but I'm always getting error regarding CA certificate when I test connection, or when I try to upload ISO image. I've tried to upload ISO image via cli commands (upload_disk.py), and that scenario was successful, however this method It is not very convenient for my co-workers. I have 5 physical hosts, one is dedicated to run ovirt-engine, and other 4 are kvm hypervisors.

Installing oVirt on RHEL vs CentOS Stream, Alma or Rocky Linux
by Richard W.M. Jones 06 Oct '25

06 Oct '25

I'm still struggling to get oVirt installed. It absolutely will not install on RHEL 8, the documentation here is flat out wrong: https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/installing_ovirt_as_a_standalone_manage… javapackages-tools is not a module that exists in RHEL 8. Apparently it's a CentOS PowerTools module. Since original CentOS no longer really exists either, does anyone have any opinions or experience with installing oVirt on any of: - CentOS Stream 8 - Alma Linux 8.5 - Rocky Linux Alma in particular looks like a straight replacement for old CentOS.

Re: Unable to create a network bond in OLVM

Hey, I had the same issue with Oracle Linux Virtualization. There is a known bug which prevents using bonds. If you’re on Oracle Linux, you can use kernel version kernel-uek-0:5.15.0-103.114.4.el8uek, which is known to work. (Anything above that has not worked, below that works fine too). Unfortunately I don’t know anything about other OSes. Best regards, Mark

oVirt Chat
by Jean-Louis Dupond 26 Feb '25

26 Feb '25

Hi all, As we want to bring some more action in the community and some collaboration, we would like to setup some new place to communicate for oVirt. The current IRC channel is quite dead, and I think IRC is not what we want to use anymore. Therefor the idea was to setup a Matrix Server/Channels or a Mattermost instance. I think both have their advantages and disadvantages, but might be nice to hear some feedback from the community. What would you prefer as a place to communicate with each other? - Matrix channel on matrix.org - Matrix server with multiple channels - Mattermost instance Or perhaps some other idea's? :) Please let me know so this can be setup! Thanks Jean-Louis

Re: oVirt New versioon ? Centos 10?
by Geoff O'Callaghan 23 Feb '25

23 Feb '25

In case you're wondering how I built it, there's no real magic. I checked out the repository (https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-node-ng-image) on my alma system. It will likely be a similar result on other Linux systems, but I didn't test any other combinations. I use docker-ce on alma9. Note: The underlying system needs to be a working kvm environment as the build script performs qemu based builds. docker run -v /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel:/kernel -v $PWD:/workspace --device=/dev/kvm --device=/dev/kvm/tun --ulimit=nofile=262144:262144 --privileged -it quay.io/ovirt/buildcontainer:almalinux9 /bin/bash cd /workspace ./build.sh The .github/workflows/build.yml looks *mostly* correct, just some tweaks and it should be able to create build isos - assuming the upload actions etc still work. Personally I do my builds via vscode devcontainers, but that's fundamentally the above docker command. I hope this helps.

Powering oVirt Cluster – UPS with LiFePO4 Batteries and Automatic Shutdown
by Andrei Verovski 19 Feb '25

19 Feb '25

Hi, I have published in my blog https://www.vacuum-tube.eu/wp/?p=908 <https://www.vacuum-tube.eu/wp/?p=908> small guide covering 2 topics: 1) Powering oVirt cluster hardware with budget-level UPS with LiFePO4 batteries. Most today’s budget priced UPS with power up to 10kWt still use lead-acid batteries with very low energy capacity per weight ratio and short lifespan. 2) Automatic shutdown script for all VMs and nodes in case of power line failure. It is not dependent of UPS model and its software agent. In fact, it doesn’t require UPS to have any built-in and agent software at all. Feedback welcome. with best regards Andrei Verovski

Shared disks with sgio and RHEL 9 or derivates
by buettner＠decoit.de 19 Feb '25

19 Feb '25

Hello ovirt Community we are running some ovirt clusters in 4.5.x each with FC backend. Since switching from CentOS 8 to Rockly Linux 9 as ovirt-host, the VMs with a shared LUN and SCSI-PR can no longer be started with the error sgio=unfiltered. This means that the Windows SQL failover clusters, file server failover clusters and so on no longer work. As is known, support for SGIO=filtered has been removed in RHEL 9 and its derivatives. But how can shared discs be passed through to the VMs again so that SCSI-PR works? Is there an alternative? Thanks for your feedback

Hi experts, I have successfully set up my KVM and hosted engine on virtmgmt network ( the KVM has the ip address of 172.18.100.15 and the hosted engine 172.18.100.30) , I have been able to import existing VMs (10.1.10.XXX) using virt-v2v successfully and start them, I can even access the imported VMs using the console. However, When I try to ping or ssh these VMs from the KVM (or anywhere else for that matter) I get host unreachable . the interesting thing is I can still access the non-migrated VMs on the same subnet from the KVM! Examp: the non-migrated VM on 10.1.10.191 is reachable , but the migrated VM on OVIRT at 10.1.10.192 is unreachable from the KVM! My guess is I need to tell virtmgmt to allow traffic between different IP ranges but I am not sure how and where! Any pointers or help is much appreciated. Thanks Masi

How to remove HE vm?
by Jiří Sléžka 16 Feb '25

16 Feb '25

Hi, few months ago I migrated our oVirt setup from self hosted engine to standalone. After that I undeploy HE from hosts. All is working fine but * HE vm is still in list of all vms (sure, shutdown) and cannot be removed through UI * also I would like to remove HE domain * when doing engine-setup I have to use workaround as oVirt is not in global maintenance (and don't need to be as it is standalone deployment now) engine-setup --offline --otopi-environment=OVESETUP_CONFIG/continueSetupOnHEVM=bool:True yes, that are just glitches but I would like to clean it up... Thanks for your recommendations Jiri

Hello everyone! First, I would like to thank everyone involved in this wonderful project. I leave here my sincere thanks! Does anyone know if it is possible to list all snapshots automatically? It can be by ansible, python, shell... any way that helps to list them all without having to enter Domain by Domain. Thank you all!

oVirt New versioon ? Centos 10?
by ecsi＠ecsi.hu 13 Feb '25

13 Feb '25

Hi all! What can we know about this? https://resources.ovirt.org/repos/ovirt/github-ci/ovirt-node-ng-image/ and will there ever be a new version besides the promises? Will there be Centos 10 support? And for those who have already given up on oVirt, what do they use besides proxmox?
