06 Jul '21

Hi, I get the following when trying to migrate my HostedEngine VM to a new node in the cluster, I just did node reinstall via HostedEngine and rebuild of the gluster array on that node, bacause its a replacement for a crashed dead old node. ID: 120 Migration failed due to an Error: Failed to connect to remote libvirt URI qemu+tls://hej3.5ervers.lan/system: Cannot read CA certificate '/etc/pki/CA/cacert.pem': No such file or directory (VM: HostedEngine, Source: hej1.5ervers.lan, Destination: hej3.5ervers.lan)

oVirt 4.4.7 is now generally available
by Sandro Bonazzola 06 Jul '21

06 Jul '21

oVirt 4.4.7 is now generally available The oVirt project is excited to announce the general availability of oVirt 4.4.7 , as of July 6th, 2021. This release unleashes an altogether more powerful and flexible open source virtualization solution that encompasses hundreds of individual changes and a wide range of enhancements across the engine, storage, network, user interface, and analytics, as compared to oVirt 4.3. Important notes before you install / upgrade Please note that oVirt 4.4 only supports clusters and data centers with compatibility version 4.2 and above. If clusters or data centers are running with an older compatibility version, you need to upgrade them to at least 4.2 (4.3 is recommended). Please note that in RHEL 8 / CentOS 8 several devices that worked on EL7 are no longer supported. For example, the megaraid_sas driver is removed. If you use Enterprise Linux 8 hosts you can try to provide the necessary drivers for the deprecated hardware using the DUD method (See the users’ mailing list thread on this at https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/NDSVUZSESOXEFJ… ) Documentation - If you want to try oVirt as quickly as possible, follow the instructions on the Download <https://ovirt.org/download/> page. - For complete installation, administration, and usage instructions, see the oVirt Documentation <https://ovirt.org/documentation/>. - For upgrading from a previous version, see the oVirt Upgrade Guide <https://ovirt.org/documentation/upgrade_guide/>. - For a general overview of oVirt, see About oVirt <https://ovirt.org/community/about.html>.

I have no user registered in the permissions tab of the vm available. ovirt 4.4.1 Thank you.

Re: Question about Template and Storage Domain
by Eyal Shenitzky 04 Jul '21

04 Jul '21

Hi, You are probably creating the VM as a dependent on the template (thin VM), it means that the VM's disk should be created on the same storage domain as the template disk. In order to create the VM with a disk on a different storage domain, you can either create the VM as an independent (clone) or copy the template disk to the storage domain you want to create the VM disk on.

Q: Strange Artifact with Networking After Cloning VM
by Andrei Verovski 04 Jul '21

04 Jul '21

Hi, I have Debian 10 VM under oVirt (HP ProLiant), with NextCloud/Collabora docker. VM is connected to external IP via 3rd Ethernet interface on ProLiant server to the switch/external IP link from ISP. VM doesn't have oVirt mgmt interface. Everything worked fine until my last upgrade which broke NextCloud, so I decided to restore recent backup copy, made with "Clone VM" from oVirt GUI. Now problem arises - network interface is not functional anymore at all, no traffic pass by. I deleted it, and created new one via Edit VM, updated /etc/network/interfaces on Debian, problem remains. ip a within VM shows no problems with networking, but even ping gateway IP and 8.8.8.8 doesn't work. I screenshot settings attached. Launching broken VM (which is a source clone of backup) shows no problems. Thanks in advance for any help. Andrei

Libgfapi considerations
by Jayme 01 Jul '21

01 Jul '21

Are there currently any known issues with using libgfapi in the latest stable version of ovirt in hci deployments? I have recently enabled it and have noticed a significant (over 4x) increase in io performance on my vms. I’m concerned however since it does not seem to be an ovirt default setting. Is libgfapi considered safe and stable to use in ovirt 4.3 hci?

Hi! I have tested also with last version of Ovirt 4.4, and I see that writing speed in 4 times more then with fuse. I think this is important reason to support snapshots with Libgfapi. Regards, Alex
