virtio-win driver licensing
by simon＠justconnect.ie 14 Sep '21

14 Sep '21

Hi, Can someone clarify the licensing around virtio-win drivers on oVirt 4.4.8 as the following seems to imply a RedHat paid subscrition is required when installing "virtio-win-guest-tools.exe" "2. Program License Grant. Red Hat grants User a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Program during the term of and on systems with fully-paid applicable Red Hat subscription(s) provided User may not: (a) modify, copy, or create any derivative works of the Program; (b) decompile, disassemble or reverse engineer the Program (except to the extent permitted by applicable law); (c) redistribute, encumber, sell, rent, lease, sublicense, or otherwise transfer rights to the Program (except to the extent permitted herein); or (d) remove or alter any trademark, logo, copyright or other proprietary notices, legends, symbols or labels in the Program. Upon expiration of the term set forth above, User will promptly remove, delete or destroy all copies of the Program in its possession." Kind Regards Simon...

Thank you for restreaming the oVirt Conf to China!
by Janos Bonic 14 Sep '21

14 Sep '21

Hey folks, I'm hoping whoever mentioned in the chat that they are rebroadcasting the conference to China is in this mailing list. I owe you a huge thank you! I tried to figure out how to stream to China, but I failed. If you are interested in helping us set up a direct stream or publish to a platform accessible in China next year, please contact me privately so we can coordinate. Janos

Hi all, Hope you all are doing well. Checkout this new oVirt blog: oVirt Monitoring Alerts via Grafana <https://blogs.ovirt.org/2021/08/ovirt-monitoring-alerts-via-grafana/>. The blog explains how to configure alerts in Grafana for your oVirt environment and provides an example alerts dashboard that you can import, use and edit to your needs. When using alerts significant or critical data changes can be immediately recognized, so don't miss this opportunity to learn how to configure and use this important tool. Feedback, comments and suggestions are more than welcome! -- Aviv Litman BI Associate Software Engineer Red Hat <https://www.redhat.com/> alitman(a)redhat.com <https://www.redhat.com/>

about the cloud-init options on the vm portal
by Tommy Sway 13 Sep '21

13 Sep '21

It seems that the options for cloud-init in the VM portal interface are only host name and SSH key, other options that can be seen in the administrator interface are not visible. Is there a solution to this problem? Thanks!

Cannot Start VM After Pausing due to Storage I/O Error
by bob.franzke＠mdaemon.com 13 Sep '21

13 Sep '21

Noticed I had a VM that was 'paused' due to a 'Storage I/O error. I inherited this system from another admin and have no idea where to start figuring this out. We have a 4-node Ovirt cluster with a 5 Manager node. The VM in question is running on a host vm-host-colo-4. Best I can tell the VMs run on a gluster replicated volume replicated between all 4 nodes, with node 1 running as an arbiter node for the gluster volume. Other VMs are running on this host 4 so not sure what the issue is with this one VM. When I look at the status of the gluster volume for this host, I see the self-heal info for the bricks is listed as 'N/A' for this host. All the other hosts in the cluster list this info as 'OK'. When I cd into the gluster directory on host 4, I don't see the same things as I do on the other hosts. I am not sure this is an issue but its just different. When running various gluster commands gluster seems to respond. See below: [root@vm-host-colo-4 gluster]# gluster volume info all Volume Name: gl-colo-1 Type: Replicate Volume ID: 2c545e19-9468-487e-9e9b-cd3202fc24c4 Status: Started Snapshot Count: 0 Number of Bricks: 1 x (2 + 1) = 3 Transport-type: tcp Bricks: Brick1: 10.20.101.181:/gluster/gl-colo-1/brick1 Brick2: 10.20.101.183:/gluster/gl-colo-1/brick1 Brick3: 10.20.101.185:/gluster/gl-colo-1/brick1 (arbiter) Options Reconfigured: network.ping-timeout: 30 cluster.granular-entry-heal: enable performance.strict-o-direct: on storage.owner-gid: 36 storage.owner-uid: 36 cluster.choose-local: off features.shard: on cluster.shd-wait-qlength: 10000 cluster.shd-max-threads: 8 cluster.locking-scheme: granular cluster.data-self-heal-algorithm: full cluster.server-quorum-type: server cluster.quorum-type: auto cluster.eager-lock: enable network.remote-dio: off performance.low-prio-threads: 32 performance.io-cache: off performance.read-ahead: off performance.quick-read: off auth.allow: * user.cifs: off transport.address-family: inet nfs.disable: on performance.client-io-threads: off Volume Name: gl-vm-host-4 Type: Distribute Volume ID: a2ba6b29-2366-4a7e-bda8-2e0574cf4afa Status: Started Snapshot Count: 0 Number of Bricks: 1 Transport-type: tcp Bricks: Brick1: 10.20.101.187:/gluster/gl-vm-host-colo-4 Options Reconfigured: network.ping-timeout: 30 cluster.granular-entry-heal: enable network.remote-dio: off performance.strict-o-direct: on storage.owner-gid: 36 storage.owner-uid: 36 auth.allow: * user.cifs: disable transport.address-family: inet nfs.disable: on [root@vm-host-colo-4 gluster]# [root@vm-host-colo-4 gluster]# gluster-eventsapi status Webhooks: http://mydesktop.altn.int:80/ovirt-engine/services/glusterevents +-------------------------+-------------+-----------------------+ | NODE | NODE STATUS | GLUSTEREVENTSD STATUS | +-------------------------+-------------+-----------------------+ | vm-host-colo-1.altn.int | UP | OK | | vm-idev-colo-1.altn.int | UP | OK | | vm-host-colo-2.altn.int | UP | OK | | localhost | UP | OK | +-------------------------+-------------+-----------------------+ [root@vm-host-colo-4 gluster]# gluster volume status gl-vm-host-4 Status of volume: gl-vm-host-4 Gluster process TCP Port RDMA Port Online Pid ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Brick 10.20.101.187:/gluster/gl-vm-host-col o-4 49152 0 Y 33221 Task Status of Volume gl-vm-host-4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ There are no active volume tasks I also get a timeout error when doing a 'gluster volume status' on this node. So while some aspects seem fine with the gluster volume, some don't. Should I restart the glusterd daemon or will that mess things up? I am not sure if this is due to something wrong with the gluster volume or with the vm-host's ability to access the data for the VM disk, meaning a true I/O problem. There are two VMs in this state both running on this host and I am not sure how to proceed to get them running again. Should I force this VM to be on a different host by editing the VM or should I try and make it work on the host its on. As mentioned, many other VMs are running on this host so not sure why these two have an issue. Up front apologies here. I am a network engineer and not a VM/Ovirt expert. This was dropped in my lap due to a layoff and could use some help on where to go from here. Thanks in advance for any help.

Create template from snapshot of vm using MBS disk
by ssarang520＠gmail.com 13 Sep '21

Hi, If I create a template with a snapshot of the vm that uses the mbs disk, the template cannot be used to create a new vm. Is this normal or a bug?

Error when trying to change master storage domain
by Matthew Benstead 12 Sep '21

12 Sep '21

Hello, I'm trying to decommission the old master storage domain in ovirt, and replace it with a new one. All of the VMs have been migrated off of the old master, and everything has been running on the new storage domain for a couple months. But when I try to put the old domain into maintenance mode I get an error. Old Master: vm-storage-ssd New Domain: vm-storage-ssd2 The error is: Failed to Reconstruct Master Domain for Data Center EDC2 As well as: Sync Error on Master Domain between Host daccs01 and oVirt Engine. Domain: vm-storage-ssd is marked as Master in oVirt Engine database but not on the Storage side. Please consult with Support on how to fix this issue. 2021-07-28 11:41:34,870-07 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.irsbroker.IrsProxy] (EE-ManagedThreadFactory-engine-Thread-23) [] Master domain version is not in sync between DB and VDSM.
