win 2008 kvm import
by Grant Pasley 05 Jun '15

05 Jun '15

hi all, i am going to migrate a production windows 2008 image that is currently running on kvm over to ovirt 3.5.2 this weekend. are there any tips, any do's and dont's i should be aware of before doing this? should i install the windows guest tools before moving over or once done? what about having to install the virtio drivers when doing and new windows vm in order to see the disks, how is this achieved with an already created kvm image? -- thanks and regards, grant pasley. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com

error starting vm - configure network
by Gonzalo Amadio 04 Jun '15

04 Jun '15

I have just installed ovirt AIO. I configure local datacenter, local storage. Created a new vm. Attached a cd. But when I want to "Run once", so I can install de OS, i get these events and the vm shuts immediately down: 2015-jun-04, 13:21 Failed to run VM debTest2 (User: admin@internal). 2015-jun-04, 13:21 Failed to run VM debTest2 on Host local_host. 2015-jun-04, 13:20 VM debTest2 is down with error. Exit message: XML error: listen network 'vdsm-ovirtmgmt' had no usable address. 2015-jun-04, 13:20 VM debTest2 was started by admin@internal (Host: local_host). I suppose I have to configure network. But don't know how to proceed. Thank you for your help. -- Gonzalo Amadio La simplicidad es la sofisticación suprema

by Grant Pasley 04 Jun '15

04 Jun '15

hi all, i have ovirt 3.5.2 allinone running on centos 6.6 and have noticed that when i reboot the physical host server the vm's do not start up again automatically, i have to start them manually. i have worked with kvm and vm manager to date and know where to set the auto start there, but cannot seem to find this option in ovirt? -- thanks and regards, grant pasley. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com

oVirt Engine in a container
by Fabian Deutsch 04 Jun '15

04 Jun '15

Hey, if you are using docker or atomic, then you might be interested that you can get a fully configured and running oVirt Engine (based on CentOS and oVirt 3.5) from the docker repositories. I'm not the first one who gave it a go, Moran [also] [did] this. My work is similar to his, I just tried to leverage some enhancements which popped up in the last 6 months - mainly the integration with the `atomic` command and a simpler integration with systemd. The image is based on this [Dockerfile] and [this atomic installation script] to perform the engine setup on deployment. With the `atomic` command the usage is quite easy: atomic install fabiand/ovirt-engine-3.5 # or ADMINPW=foo atomic install fabiand/ovirt-engine-3.5 With `docker` it's a few more lines: export IMAGE=docker.io/fabiand/ovirt-engine-3.5 export NAME=ovirt-engine-3.5 # Use a transient (--rm) container to create the real the container docker run --rm -v /:/host \ -e FQDN=$(hostname) \ -e ADMINPASSWORD=${ADMINPW:-ovirt} \ -e NAME=$NAME \ -e IMAGE=$IMAGE \ $IMAGE container/atomic-install.sh After this run you can access oVirt Engine on port 80 and 443 of that host. It would be great if someone could try this - also on a different distribution than Fedora or CentOS - i.e. on Ubuntu? Gentoo? - and provide some feedback. Greetings fabian -- [also](https://community.redhat.com/blog/2014/10/ovirt-dockerized/) [did](https://community.redhat.com/blog/2014/10/ovirt-dockerized-part-2/) [Dockerfile](https://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=ovirt-container-engine.git;a=… [this atomic installation script](https://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=ovirt-container-engine.git;a=blob…

Is it a plausible configuration?
by Kiril L 04 Jun '15

04 Jun '15

Would you please tell me if this configuration is doable or there is something that i am missing? I would like to use only two servers (X and Y) for VDI and Gluster based storage. Hosted engine for oVirt and replicated volumes between X and Y for the gluster storage. Is a third machine Z a must?

In that case will have to wait for a third machine then. So in future there will be something useful for me but i did not get it - what exactly will be different between ovirt 3.5 with quoum enforcment and ovirt 3.6 with Hyper Converged Gluster Support?

ovirt-guest-agent on EL7 not starting up correctly, requires restart

Hello, after deploying a few CentOS7.1 hosts I realized that the ovirt-guest-agent does not start up correctly at system boot, requiring a manual restart. Afterwards it is reporting data to engine. I have only these lines: Jun 03 12:39:39 pipeline.int.m-box.de systemd[1]: Starting oVirt Guest Agent... Jun 03 12:39:40 pipeline.int.m-box.de systemd[1]: Started oVirt Guest Agent.

Virtualised ovirt-engine?
by Christian Ejlertsen 03 Jun '15

03 Jun '15

Hello I'm trying to find out a few things about ovirt, besides that it's an fantastic product. I can find a draft describing virtualising the ovirt engine on the ovirt nodes, but i can't find it described much in other places, not saying it's not there :), but at least my eyes does not find it :) Does anyone have some insight towards this? Thank you very much in advance. - Christian
