quota_name field length missmatch in db schema
by Pavel Šipoš 11 Jan '19

11 Jan '19

Hi! We have a problem with Quotas whose name has a length grater than 60 characters. Such quotas can be created (or renamed) through oVirt-shell but cannot be managed through the oVirt Engine interface. E.g. VMs in that quota can't be started, created, quota comment can't be added... It turns out that the problem is with the engine database definition of "audit_log" table, that declares "quota_name" column as "character varying(60)". However "quota.quota_name" is defined as "character varying(65)". I think this is a bug and should be fixed in the future. Error example: PL/pgSQL function insertauditlog(integer,timestamp with time zone,integer,character varying,integer,text,uuid,character varying,uuid,character varying,uuid,character varying,uuid,character varying,uuid,character varying,uuid,character varying,uuid,character varying,uuid,character varying,character varying,uuid,uuid,character varying,text,boolean,uuid,text) line 9 at SQL statement; nested exception is org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: value too long for type character varying(60) Regards, Pavel

JSON internal error setting bonding using vdsm-client
by Callum Smith 10 Jan '19

10 Jan '19

Dear All, I’m getting the error: “(code=32603, message=Internal JSON-RPC error: {‘reason’: “‘unicode’ object has no attribute ’sort’”}) when trying to apply networking configuration with vdsm-client -f bond.json Host setupNetworks bond.json contains: { “networks”: {}, “bondings”: { “bond0”: { “nics”: “eno1+eno2”, “options”: “mode=4” } }, “options”: {} } Of course python is handling all the arguments as unicode entities rather than strings. Any idea what might be wrong?

File level restore of a VM backup located in export domain in Overt
by kevin.doyle＠manchester.ac.uk 10 Jan '19

10 Jan '19

Hi I would like to create backups of VM's using cron. I have installed and ran https://github.com/wefixit-AT/oVirtBackup This works well and saves an image to the export domain I created. I can also carry out a full restore from this by importing from the export domain and selecting the backup. The question I have is how to do a single file recovery from the backup image. I would like to restore /etc/hosts just as an example. What command would I use ? I am not sure of the layout of the export domain directory ── dom_md │ ├── ids │ ├── inbox │ ├── leases │ ├── metadata │ └── outbox ├── images │ └── 622eb98e-f10b-4e96-bec5-8f0a7e7745fe │ ├── b47ce8e1-f552-47f8-af56-33a3b8ce7aed │ └── b47ce8e1-f552-47f8-af56-33a3b8ce7aed.meta └── master ├── tasks └── vms └── c6e6c49c-c9bc-4683-8b19-d18250b5697b └── c6e6c49c-c9bc-4683-8b19-d18250b5697b.ovf The largest file is found is in images folder so I assume this is the backup image ? ./images/622eb98e-f10b-4e96-bec5-8f0a7e7745fe: total 2.7G drwxr-xr-x. 2 vdsm kvm 99 Jan 10 11:48 . drwxr-xr-x. 3 vdsm kvm 50 Jan 10 11:48 .. -rw-rw----. 1 vdsm kvm 50G Jan 10 11:51 b47ce8e1-f552-47f8-af56-33a3b8ce7aed -rw-r--r--. 1 vdsm kvm 269 Jan 10 11:48 b47ce8e1-f552-47f8-af56-33a3b8ce7aed.meta # file b47ce8e1-f552-47f8-af56-33a3b8ce7aed b47ce8e1-f552-47f8-af56-33a3b8ce7aed: x86 boot sector; partition 1: ID=0x83, active, starthead 32, startsector 2048, 2097152 sectors; partition 2: ID=0x8e, starthead 170, startsector 2099200, 102758400 sectors, code offset 0x63 Any help would be appreciated, I am new to Ovirt regards Kevin

VMs Hung On Booting From Hard Disk
by Douglas Duckworth 09 Jan '19

09 Jan '19

Hi I have deployed 10 VMs in our oVirt cluster using Ansible. Thanks everyone for helping get it working. However, I randomly run into issues where the OS won't load after completing kickstart installation. As you can see the disks are attached while we are booting to it however I keep getting a hang at "booting from hard disk." The kickstart, kernel, and everything else for this VM, matches others. I am unsure why this problem occurs. I have attached repeating vdsm errors from the host which has the VM.

It might be a good idea to move the host to maintenance before the change, and ensure connectivity from the bond to oVirt Engine, because the change will be rolled back, if connectivity is lost. >Thanks!
