Customization of Ovirt VM Portal
by Alessio B. 17 Jun '21

17 Jun '21

Hello to all, please is there a way to customize the VM portal? In my case I need to hide the "VNC console" value from the dropdown list inside of selected VM properties and leave only "VNC Console Browser". The user profile is "UserRole" Thank you very much!

RFC8482 and engine-setup
by Strahil Nikolov 14 Jun '21

14 Jun '21

Hello All, recently I have changed my firewall and DNS server and I have noticed that engine-setup warns with: Failed to resolve engine.localdomain using DNS, it can be resolved only locally. The command used was: 'dig +noall +answer FQDN ANY' It seems that according to RFC8482, ANY is deprecated and DNS can return anything.Once such example is the output of 'dig wikipedia.org ANY' . What are our options now ? I guess we can query for A and AAAA records ? Extra info: https://blog.cloudflare.com/rfc8482-saying-goodbye-to-any/ Best Regards,Strahil Nikolov

fresh ovirt node 4.4.6 fail on firewalld both host and engine deployment
by Charles Kozler 09 Jun '21

09 Jun '21

Hello - Deployed fresh ovirt node 4.4.6 and the only thing I did to the system was configure the NIC with nmtui During the gluster install the install errored out with gluster-deployment-1620832547044.log:failed: [n2] (item=5900/tcp) => {"ansible_loop_var": "item", "changed": false, "item": "5900/tcp", "msg": "ERROR: Exception caught: org.fedoraproject.FirewallD1.Exception: ALREADY_ENABLED: '5900:tcp' already in 'public' Permanent and Non-Permanent(immediate) operation"} The fix here was easy - I just deleted the port it was complaining about with firewall-cmd and restarted the installation and it was all fine During the hosted engine deployment when the VM is being deployed it dies here [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Open a port on firewalld] [ ERROR ] fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "ERROR: Exception caught: org.fedoraproject.FirewallD1.Exception: ALREADY_ENABLED: '6900:tcp' already in 'public' Non-permanent operation"} Now the issue here is that I do not have access to the engine VM as it is in a bit of a transient state since when it fails the current image that is open is discarded when the ansible playbook is kicked off again I cannot find any BZ on this and google is turning up nothing. I don't think firewalld failing due to the firewall rule already existing should be a reason to exit the installation The interesting part is that this only fails on certain ports. i.e when I reran the gluster wizard after 5900 failed, the other ports are presumably still added to the firewall, and the installation completes Suggestions? -- *Notice to Recipient*: https://www.fixflyer.com/disclaimer <https://www.fixflyer.com/disclaimer>

Update of plain CentOS hosts very slow
by Gianluca Cecchi 09 Jun '21

09 Jun '21

Hello, I have a 4.4.5 environment that I'm upgrading to 4.4.6. I'm upgrading plain CentOS hosts from the GUI. They are in 4.4.5, so in particular CentOS 8.3 and as part of the upgrade they have to be put to 8.4. In the past I used "yum update" on the host but now it seems it is not the correct way. But the ansible part related to package updates seems to be very slow. It gives the impression that it is doing it one by one and not as a whole when you run "yum update" Now it is about 30 minutes that the update is going on and my internet speed is for sure very high. In messages of host I see every single line suche this ones: Jun 8 11:09:30 ov300 python3[3031815]: ansible-dnf Invoked with name=['rsyslog-relp.x86_64'] state=latest lock_timeout=300 conf_file=/tmp/yum.conf allow_downgrade=False autoremove=False bugfix=False disable_gpg_check=False disable_plugin=[] disablerepo=[] download_only=False enable_plugin=[] enablerepo=[] exclude=[] installroot=/ install_repoquery=True install_weak_deps=True security=False skip_broken=False update_cache=False update_only=False validate_certs=True disable_excludes=None download_dir=None list=None releasever=None Jun 8 11:09:32 ov300 python3[3031828]: ansible-dnf Invoked with name=['runc.x86_64'] state=latest lock_timeout=300 conf_file=/tmp/yum.conf allow_downgrade=False autoremove=False bugfix=False disable_gpg_check=False disable_plugin=[] disablerepo=[] download_only=False enable_plugin=[] enablerepo=[] exclude=[] installroot=/ install_repoquery=True install_weak_deps=True security=False skip_broken=False update_cache=False update_only=False validate_certs=True disable_excludes=None download_dir=None list=None releasever=None Any clarification?

Rootless Podman container not displaying in oVirt Manager
by David White 09 Jun '21

09 Jun '21

I deployed a rootless Podman container on a RHEL 8 guest on Saturday (3 days ago). At the time, I remember seeing some selinux AVC "denied" messages related to qemu-guest-agent and podman, but I didn't have time to look into it further, but made a mental note to come back to it, because it really smelled like a bug to me. So, I came back to it this afternoon, and now I see nothing when I look for `ausearch -m AVC` I restarted the `quemu-guest-agent` service with systemctl, and ran `ausearch -m AVC` again, hoping to see some results, but I still don't. I really wish that I had at least copied the AVC message I saw on Saturday for later investigation, but I fully expected to be able to find that information again today. Regardless, I have a rootless container running on the guest VM. When I login to the oVirt Manager and navigate to the VM -> Containers, I don't see anything listed. On Saturday, I thought this was a bug with selinux and qemu-guest-agent. But now, I have no idea. Any thoughts? Sent with ProtonMail Secure Email.

Booting VMs from RHEL ISOs fail
by David White 09 Jun '21

09 Jun '21

Ever since I deployed oVirt a couple months ago, I've been unable to boot any VMs from a RHEL ISO. Ubuntu works fine, as does CentOS. I've tried multiple RHEL 8 ISOs on multiple VMs. I've destroyed and re-uploaded the ISOs, and I've also destroyed and re-created the VMs. Every time I try to boot a VM to a RHEL 8 ISO, the console just tells me that "No boot device" was found. Can anyone think of any reason why other ISOs would work, when RHEL ISOs do not work? How can I troubleshoot this further? I really need to get a server up and running with Podman.
