Re: Issue deploying self hosted engine on new install
by Robert Webb 10 Dec '19

10 Dec '19

Just wanted to close this out. Now that I have solved my NFS issues, I completed a clean install of oVirt node on two Dell R410's and ran the self hosted engine wizard on one of them. The install went flawless and I now have a working setup. Thanks for the time and patience from everyone who helped. ________________________________________ From: Robert Webb <rwebb(a)ropeguru.com> Sent: Tuesday, December 10, 2019 8:10 AM To: Yedidyah Bar David Cc: Nate Revo; users(a)ovirt.org Subject: [ovirt-users] Re: Issue deploying self hosted engine on new install I have a thread going reference the NFS permission issue.

Clusters: Clarification needed on the ballooning memory feature and its affects on the physical hosts memory
by donagh.moran＠oracle.com 10 Dec '19

10 Dec '19

Hi For test purposes I'm configuring cluster with ballooning enabled and memory over-commit set to 200% with one host (total memory 128600 MB) connected. I then create 4 linux based VM's and I set the following on each: memory size: 62000MB, max memory: 248000MB (default value set when memory size is set) and a guaranteed memory value of 31000MB (default value set when memory size is set). This all works as expected, I can start 4 VM's with a total memory size that double the physical memory available on the host. What I don't understand is when I view the general info on my host I see that the available memory is much higher than expected. Physical Memory:128600 MB total, 11574 MB used, 117026 MB free. When researching the set up required to test this feature I came across this post https://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2017-October/084675.html. It states the hosts memory load needs to exceed 80%. I was hoping that the allocation of physical memory to each VM would satisfy this condition but I am not sure it does. I have a few questions on this Should setting the physical memory to each VM would satisfy the greater than 80% conditions? Given we have guaranteed memory for each VM of 31000MB should the total of 124000Mb exceed the free memory on the host? Does the hosts used physical memory only represent each VM's disk 4Gb virtual size? Will the hosts free memory only decrease as the VM's consume storage? Any clarification on the above questions would be most appreciated. Regards Donagh

Re: Cannot obtain information from export domain
by Strahil 10 Dec '19

10 Dec '19

Hi can you describe your actions? Usually the export is like this: 1. You make a backup of the VM 2. You migrate the disks to the export storage domain 3. You shut down the VM 4. Set the storage domain in maintenance and then detach it from the oVirt 5. You atttach it to the new oVirt 6. Once the domain is active - click on import VM tab and import all VMs (defining the cluster you want them to be running on) 7. Power up VM and then migrate the disks to the permanent storage.

Still having NFS issues. (Permissions)
by Robert Webb 10 Dec '19

10 Dec '19

So I have doubled checked everything I can think of and am still having issues. I have an NFS Storage Domain attached and I can now create, modify, and remove VM's with no issues. The issue I am having is when it is time to power on the VM. The issue is that when oVirt tries to access the image, access is being denied. I have double checked the documentation against my setup and it all looks right. I have the VDSM user and KVM group created with id's of 36. New files are being created with permissions of 755, just as the documentation describes. What I have found out though, is that in order for oVirt to have access to the files, the "other" permission has to be a 7. So effectiviely I need to have 757, rwx, on the files. Is there a user that I am missing from the documentation, or a user on oVirt that should be in a group, that isn't? Someone previously mentioned the sanlock user, but I do not see anything special that is required for it. This is my last hurdle before really being able to dig into oVirt.

Importing a Virtual Machine from a KVM Host
by Dirk Streubel 09 Dec '19

09 Dec '19

Hello everbody, i am just a little bit confused about importing Qemu Images from my KVM Host. At home, and at work i am using a ovirt engine in a VM. The Version is 4.3.7 and on bare metal my host. Everything works fine but i have the same problem at home and on work. I want to import my qcow2 Images from a KVM Host but i will not work. The command virsh -r -c 'qemu+tcp://root@host1.example.org/system' list --all shows me akk my VMs. But when i want to load the images in the GUI, nothing happens. I follow this instruction: https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/virt/KvmToOvirt.h… After that, i take a look on the official 4.3 Rhev Documentation from Red Hat. There stand this: Log in to the proxy host and generate SSH keys for the vdsm user. sudo -u vdsm ssh-keygen So, i have no proxy host. So i want to do this on my ovirt-engine. Is this right? Next thing: the user vdsm is locked on the ovirt-engine machine and the host. So, do i have to unlocked the account of the user vdsm or what is the best way. My Problem is i found nothing that would help me to solve this problem. Maybe somebody here do me a favour and help me to solve this "challenge" Regards Dirk
