Problems Installing host on brand new 4.4 cluster
by David Johnson 20 Jan '21

20 Jan '21

Hi all, I am standing up a brand new cluster on new hardware. The ovirt controller is installed and appears to be running fine. When I attempt to add the new host, I get the flag that says "Non Operational", and the exclamation mark with the message "Host has no default route". I have confirmed that I have bidirectional ssh connections between the controller and the new host. Selinux is disabled. Firewall is disabled. I can get to the host console via the link in the GUI Compute|Hosts page. This looks like a common symptom of a host of problems, but there is nothing to readily indicate what the actual problem is. In the ovirt-engine log, I found this entry: "Host 'ovirt-host-03' is set to Non-Operational, it is missing the following networks: 'ovirtmgmt'" This seems self-explanatory, but I see no way to add the missing network to the host. Thank you in advance for your help Regards, David Johnson * <http://www.linkedin.com/in/pojoguy>*

Install of RHV 4.4 failing - "Host is not up, please check logs, perhaps also on the engine machine"
by james.freeman＠a24.io 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

Hi all I am in the process of migrating a RHV 4.3 setup to RHV 4.4 and struggling with the setup. I am installing on RHEL 8.3, using settings backed up from the RHV 4.3 install (via 'hosted-engine --deploy --restore-from-file=backup.bck'). The install process always fails at the same point for me at the moment, and I can't figure out how to get past it. As far as install progress goes, the local hosted-engine comes up and runs on the node. I have been able to grep for local_vm_ip in the logs, and can SSH into it with the password I set during the setup phase. However the install playbooks always fail with: 2021-01-18 18:38:00,086-0500 ERROR otopi.plugins.gr_he_common.core.misc misc._terminate:167 Hosted Engine deployment failed: please check the logs for the issue, fix accordingly or re-deploy from scratch. Earlier in the logs, I note the following: 2021-01-18 18:34:51,258-0500 ERROR otopi.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.ansible_utils ansible_utils._process_output:109 fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Host is not up, please check logs, perhaps also on the engine machine"} 2021-01-18 18:37:16,661-0500 ERROR otopi.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.ansible_utils ansible_utils._process_output:109 fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "The system may not be provisioned according to the playbook results: please check the logs for the issue, fix accordingly or re-deploy from scratch.\n"} Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/otopi/context.py", line 132, in _executeMethod method['method']() File "/usr/share/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/scripts/../plugins/gr-he-ansiblesetup/core/misc.py", line 435, in _closeup raise RuntimeError(_('Failed executing ansible-playbook')) RuntimeError: Failed executing ansible-playbook 2021-01-18 18:37:18,996-0500 ERROR otopi.context context._executeMethod:154 Failed to execute stage 'Closing up': Failed executing ansible-playbook 2021-01-18 18:37:32,421-0500 ERROR otopi.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.ansible_utils ansible_utils._process_output:109 fatal: [localhost]: UNREACHABLE! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Failed to connect to the host via ssh: ssh: connect to host rhvm.example.org port 22: No route to host", "skip_reason": "Host localhost is unreachable", "unreachable": true} I find the unreachable message a bit odd, as at this stage all that has happened is that the local hosted-engine has been brought up to be configured, and so it is running on virbr0, not on my actual network. As a result, that DNS address will never resolve, and the IP it resolves to won't be up. I gave the installation script permission to modify the local /etc/hosts but this hasn't improved things. I presume I'm missing something in the install process, or earlier on in the logs, but I've been scanning for errors and possible clues to no avail. Any and all help greatly appreciated!

VM Disks order
by Erez Zarum 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

When attaching a disk it is not possible to set the disk order nor modify the order later. Example: A new VM is provisioned with 5 disks, Disk0 is the OS and then later attached disks by order up to Disk4. Removing Disk3 and then later attaching does not promise it will be attached back as Disk3. In most other platforms it is possible to set the order. Am i missing something? if not, is there a plan to add this feature?

Guest don't start : Cannot access backing file
by Lionel Caignec 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

Hi, i've a big problem, i juste shutdown (power off completely) a guest to make a cold restart. And at startup the guest say : "Cannot access backing file '/rhev/data-center/mnt/blockSD/69348aea-7f55-41be-ae4e-febd86c33855/images/8224b2b0-39ba-44ef-ae41-18fe726f26ca/ca141675-c6f5-4b03-98b0-0312254f91e8'" When i look from shell on Hypervisor the device file is red blinking... Trying to change SPM, look device into all hosts, copy disk etc... no way to get my disk back online. It seems ovirt completely lost (delete?) the block device. There is a way to manually dump (dd) the device in command line in order to import it inside ovirt? My environment Storage : SAN (managed by ovirt) Ovirt-engine 4.4.3.12-1.el8 Host centos 8.2 Vdsm 4.40.26 Thanks for help i'm stuck and it's really urgent -- Lionel Caignec

VG issue / Non Operational
by Christian Reiss 18 Jan '21

18 Jan '21

Hey folks, quick (I hope) question: On my 3-node cluster I am swapping out all the SSDs with fewer but higher capacity ones. So I took one node down (maintenance, stop), then removed all SSDs, set up a new RAID, set up lvm and gluster, let it resync. Gluster health status shows no unsynced entries. Uppon going from maintenance to online from ovirt management It goes into non-operational status, vdsm log on the node shows: 2021-01-17 11:13:29,051+0100 INFO (jsonrpc/6) [api.host] START getAllVmStats() from=::1,48580 (api:48) 2021-01-17 11:13:29,051+0100 INFO (jsonrpc/6) [api.host] FINISH getAllVmStats return={'status': {'message': 'Done', 'code': 0}, 'statsList': (suppressed)} from=::1,48580 (api:54) 2021-01-17 11:13:29,052+0100 INFO (jsonrpc/6) [jsonrpc.JsonRpcServer] RPC call Host.getAllVmStats succeeded in 0.00 seconds (__init__:312) 2021-01-17 11:13:30,420+0100 WARN (monitor/4a62cdb) [storage.LVM] Reloading VGs failed (vgs=[u'4a62cdb4-b314-4c7f-804e-8e7275518a7f'] rc=5 out=[] err=[' Volume group "4a62cdb4-b314-4c7f-804e-8e7275518a7f" not found', ' Cannot process volume group 4a62cdb4-b314-4c7f-804e-8e7275518a7f']) (lvm:470) 2021-01-17 11:13:30,424+0100 ERROR (monitor/4a62cdb) [storage.Monitor] Setting up monitor for 4a62cdb4-b314-4c7f-804e-8e7275518a7f failed (monitor:330) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/monitor.py", line 327, in _setupLoop self._setupMonitor() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/monitor.py", line 349, in _setupMonitor self._produceDomain() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/utils.py", line 159, in wrapper value = meth(self, *a, **kw) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/monitor.py", line 367, in _produceDomain self.domain = sdCache.produce(self.sdUUID) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sdc.py", line 110, in produce domain.getRealDomain() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sdc.py", line 51, in getRealDomain return self._cache._realProduce(self._sdUUID) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sdc.py", line 134, in _realProduce domain = self._findDomain(sdUUID) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sdc.py", line 151, in _findDomain return findMethod(sdUUID) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sdc.py", line 176, in _findUnfetchedDomain raise se.StorageDomainDoesNotExist(sdUUID) I assume due to the changed LVM UUID it fails, right? Can I someone fix/change the UUID and get the node back up again? It does not seem to be a major issue, to be honest. I can see the gluster mount (what ovirt mounts when it onlines a node) already, and gluster is happy too. Any help is appreciated! -Chris. -- with kind regards, mit freundlichen Gruessen, Christian Reiss

encrypted GENEVE traffic
by Pavel Nakonechnyi 18 Jan '21

18 Jan '21

Dear oVirt Community, From my understanding oVirt does not support Open vSwitch IPSEC tunneling for GENEVE traffic (which is described on pages http://docs.openvswitch.org/en/latest/howto/ipsec/ and http://docs.openvswitch.org/en/latest/tutorials/ipsec/) Are there plans to introduce such support? (or explicitly not to..) Is it possible to somehow manually configure such tunneling for existing virtual networks? (even in a limited way) Alternatively, is it possible to deploy oVirt on top of the tunneled (i.e. via VXLAN, IPSec) interfaces? This will allow to encrypt all management traffic. Such requirement arises when using oVirt deployment on third-party premises with untrusted network. Thank in advance for any clarifications. :) -- WBR, Pavel +32478910884

Q: Node SW Install from oVirt Engine UI Failed

Hi, I installed fresh CentOS Stream on HP ProLiant and now trying to install Node SW from oVirt Engine WEB UI. Software installation failed but no comprehensive description displayed in WEB UI. Where I can find detailed logs what’s going wrong? On node "sudo dnf repolist —all” lists required repos, with unnecessary disabled. Thanks in advance.
