Installing a windows vm from importing an OVA Template
by moizr＠emiratesnbd.com 04 Feb '22

04 Feb '22

We are trying to create a windows vm on OLVM/OVirt. Below are the steps we followed - Exported an OVF of a plain windows vm from vmware. - Imported it as an OVA to OLVM - Start the VM after change OS type to Windows 2016. As soon as we select Windows 2016 the server doesnt start but works when we make it as other OS. We want to automated provisioning and setup of the vm through sysprep but the vm doesnt start once we select OS as Windows on the template or any vm created out of that template.

Unclear how to add local (POSIX) storage
by Richard W.M. Jones 04 Feb '22

04 Feb '22

I'm following the instructions here: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.2/ht… I've also added an extra virtual disk to my host node which appears as /dev/sdb. Although the disk is partitioned, /dev/sdb1 is not created. Is udev broken in oVirt node? I cannot see anywhere in the dialog where you specify the name of the device (eg. "/dev/sdb1"). So how's it supposed to work? It doesn't work, giving an information-free error message: Error while executing action Add Storage Connection: Problem while trying to mount target Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones Read my programming and virtualization blog: http://rwmj.wordpress.com libguestfs lets you edit virtual machines.

Ignore CPU_TYPE_UNSUPPORTED_IN_THIS_CLUSTER_VERSION ?

Erasure Coding Storage Support
by alishirv＠pm.me 04 Feb '22

04 Feb '22

Hello everyone, I'm new to oVirt. I want to set up a cost-efficient and fault-tolerant virtualization environment. Our VMs have low to medium IOPS, 70% of VMs have low IOPS and about 30% of them require about 5K IOPS. All the disks are NVMe. I found that the most cost-efficient storage plan in the current oVirt is a two-way replica with an arbiter and its storage overhead is more than 100%. As far as I know, we can use erasure coding with less storage overhead. Is there any plan to support erasure coding in oVirt? Would you even recommend erasure coding for VM workloads? Best regards, Ali

Hello team! I faced the same mirror issue for two days. I saw you pushed a new iso image and tried it, but still the same. I use this one https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.4/iso/ovirt-node-ng-installer/4.4.1… Error message: ``` ERROR ] fatal: [localhost -> 192.168.222.253]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Failed to download metadata for repo 'ovirt-4.4-centos-gluster8': Cannot prepare internal mirrorlist: No URLs in mirrorlist", "rc": 1, "results": []} ``` Did you merge PR with mirror changes? Best regards, Denis

Hi All, I was adding ovirt host into the cluster(along with the engine deploy option) but somehow due to network issues it failed and then I removed the host from the cluster. But I got the below error. What should I do ? Ovirt Release - 4.4.9 Unconfiguring OVN on host iondelsvr12.iontrading.com might have failed. Please ensure that the host is removed from the OVN Southbound database by using '/usr/share/ovirt-provider-ovn/scripts/remove_chassis.sh iondelsvr12.iontrading.com' manually. Thanks
