Storage balancer project
by nicolas＠devels.es 06 Mar '17

06 Mar '17

Hi, I implemented a storage domain balancer [1], i.e. a script that tries to keep all storage domains under a defined threshold. We use our oVirt infrastructure for teaching so have several hundreds of users and cca. 800 VMs at this time, so something like this is really needed considering that when students create their VMs they tend to create their disks under the same storage domain (normally the first available one). This results in one or two heavily used SDs and the rest underused. I tried to keep it as simple as possible and doesn't have many features, but it seems to work (I tried it under our conditions: About 10 SDs, relatively highly used). If someone want to improve something on it, pull requests are welcome. Might also be an inspiration on [2]. Regards.

Re: [ovirt-users] [Gluster-users] Hot to force glusterfs to use RDMA?

Dear Deepak, thank you for the hints, which gluster are you using? As you can see from my previous email that the RDMA connection tested with qperf. It is working as expected. In my case the clients are servers as well, they are hosts for the ovirt. Disabling selinux is nor recommended by ovirt, but i will give a try.

oVirt Nested Virtualization
by Luca 'remix_tj' Lorenzetto 06 Mar '17

06 Mar '17

Hello, we're installing a small ovirt cluster for hosting some test environments at work. We're interested in testing VM running hypervisors (i.e ovirt itself or a small openstack deployment). Is there any documentation showing how to enable nested virtualization in ovirt? I've seen that while adding an host to the cluster there is the opportunity to flag "Nested Virtualization" option, but i didn't understand if other packages and configs are required. Our environment is running latest ovirt 4.1 installed with ovirt-node-ng.

OVF is standard format for describing a VM: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Virtualization_Format All the VM that have a disk on a storage domain are stored in the OVF_STORE disks using OVF format, so you can restore all the VM from storage if you lost your engine database. Or, if you want to move entire storage domain from one setup to another, you can detach the storage domain from one setup, attach to the other setup, and import all the VMs. The OVF is also used by hosted engine to obtain engine vm setup from storage, and start the engine vm after a host is rebooted. > 3. perfect and clear > Thank you > > 2017-03-05 12:32 GMT+01:00 Nir Soffer <nsoffer(a)redhat.com>: >> >> On Sun, Mar 5, 2017 at 10:08 AM, Marcin Kruk <askifyouneed(a)gmail.com> >> wrote: >> > VDSM side, means RHV HOST side, right? >> > I missed LVM tags, so the command: >> > lvs -o vg_name,name,lv_tags is very helpful, thanks. >> > >> > 1.

Ubuntu VM does not complete reboot cycle without Console Open

This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------A2448A45784238E495EAEAFE Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, I have been observing that Ubuntu Precise VM, if restarted using a crontab at a given time, stops at the OS / Kernel Selection screen and does not complete the reboot. If we issue the reboot command with Console open, the same command works without any issues and the VM boots properly. This issue happens only with Ubuntu Precise and not with Trusty or Xeniel or even with any of Rehat distributions or CentOS. Interestingly, it doesn't happen with VMWare ESXi. I also read somewhere that this issue is with VDSM 3.6 and it seems to continue with VDSM 4 as well. Any suggestions in this regard. -- Thanks & Regards, Anantha Raghava eXzaTech Consulting And Services Pvt. Ltd.

------=_Part_2376072_2003072310.1488785909633 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit hi, I'm trying to figure out how to manage VM permissions with ovirt. >From what I've understood, if you add a user to user role in the system preferences, this user can access every VM and resources on the cluster, with the associated permissions; right ?

VMs imported from libvirt have no cdrom device
by Chris Boot 05 Mar '17

05 Mar '17

Hi, I've imported a number of VMs that I previously was running under a self-hosted libvirt configuration. Most of the VMs at the source did not have a cdrom device (but some did) because I just added one as I needed to. Now that the VMs have been imported into oVirt, none of them have a cdrom device. Even booting with the "Attach CD" option doesn't create a cdrom device. I can't see any way to get oVirt to re-create the missing device. Is there a way for me to add these missing devices to my VMs? I'm running oVirt 4.1 on CentOS 7.3.1611 with a hosted engine setup. VMs were migrated from a Debian Stretch machine running libvirt 3.0.0 with qemu 2.8.0. Thanks, Chris -- Chris Boot bootc(a)bootc.net
