Re: [External] : Importing KVMs and QCOW
by Abe E 11 Mar '22

Thanks for the reply. Yes I was able to make it work in the end, for some reason Ovirt didnt recognize the QCOW or Raw files as they were, so instead I took the vmdk my vendor provided me and converted it to qcow and ovirt then recognized it correctly.

Hi All, During the ova import process, preallocated disk policy is selected and the VM is imported successfully. Unfortunately the disks remain as Thin Provisioned - is this a known bug and is there a workaround? Kind Regards Simon...

Long shot on VM failing to start
by simon＠justconnect.ie 10 Mar '22

10 Mar '22

We are moving to an oVirt 4.4.9 environment from a 4.3.4.3 environment and have run into a major issue. The method for migration to the new system is to shutdown a VM on the old system, build a new VM on the new system with the same IP/name etc. This has worked for several VMs so far but the latest new build failed and we had to roll back - i.e. start the old VM. The old VM fails to start with the following message in the VMs libvirt qemu log: libvirtd quit during handshake: Input/output error shutting down, reason=failed Any ideas? Regards Simon...

virt-viewer-x64.msi location
by auricomdyx＠gmail.com 10 Mar '22

10 Mar '22

Hello, I'm trying to download viewer for connecting to VMs, the documentation https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/virtual_machine_management_guide/index.… mentions the URL should be https://your-manager-fqdn/ovirt-engine/services/files/spice/virt-viewer-x64… However substituting my ovirt-engine hostname for "your-manager-fqdn", I get 404. I even SSH directly into hosted engine VM and was not able to locate virt-viewer-x64.msi on the file system. If I go to https://your-manager-fqdn/ovirt-engine/ landing page. The "Console Client Resources" goes to: https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/admin-guide/virt/console-client-resourc… Which is also a 404. Am I supposed to be downloading it from here (weary of unsigned publishers, but looks like the only place where this is located)? https://virt-manager.org/download/ Version is: Version 4.4.10.6-1.el8 Installed on: CentOS Stream 8 (8.5) Install instructions used: https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/installing_ovirt_as_a_self-hosted_engin…

Re: oVirt reboot fails
by Strahil Nikolov 09 Mar '22

09 Mar '22

It seems that you are using EFI and something corrupted the installation. The fastest approach is to delete the oVirt node from the UI, reinstall and readd it back via the UI. I suspect something happened with your OS FS, but it could be a bug in the OS. If it was a regular CentOS Stream system, I wiuld follow https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3486741 Best Regards,Strahil Nikolov On Tue, Mar 8, 2022 at 8:25, dean--- via Users<users(a)ovirt.org> wrote: Rebooting oVirt fails on a RAID array installed on a Cisco UCS C220 M5.

New oVirt self-hosted engine deployment : design ideas
by ravi k 09 Mar '22

09 Mar '22

Hello, We are creating a self-hosted engine deployment and have come up with a draft design. I thought I'll get your thoughts on improving it. It is still a test setup and so we can make changes to make it resilient. We have four hosts, host01..04. I did the self-hosted engine deployment on the first node which created a dc, cluster01 and a storage domain hosted_storage. I added host02 also as a self-hosted engine host to cluster01. Now the questions :-) 1. It is recommended not to use this SD hosted_storage for regular VMs. So I'll create another SD dc_sd01. Should I use this dc_sd01 and cluster01 when creating regular VMs? What's the best practice? 2. It is a bit confusing to get my head around this concept of running regular VMs on these self-hosted engine hosts. Can I just run regular VMs in these hosts and they'll run fine? 3. Please do suggest any other recommendations from experience in terms of designing the clusters, storage domains etc. It'll help as it is a new setup and we have the scope to make changes. Regards, Ravi
