[Users] Samples Portal for Ovirt
by Shahar Havivi 07 Feb '13

07 Feb '13

Hey, I've recently developed sample User portals written on top of the SDK (Python and Java), and Ruby on top of rbovirt (partial REST bindings on top of the oVirt engine). All these examples are placed in the samples-userportal git: http://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=samples-portals.git Each language portal have its own README file that explain how to run the server, the Ruby and Python are self serving application, the java portal is hosted in JBoss. You can use them as additional examples on how to use the SDK for basic VM operations, Shahar Havivi.

[Users] Install problems
by Jonathan Archer 07 Feb '13

07 Feb '13

Hi All, Just wondering if anyone could shed some light on an issue I'm seeing? I've followed the instructions on the wiki to try and get an ovirt setup running. (F17 minimal, updated, add repo, yum install ovirt-engine, engine-setup) All that seemed to go OK, and the database creation etc seemed to be fine, however starting the ovirt-engine service seems to have failed to start, was getting a http 503 error on trying the web interface. Looking deeper into it, it seems that jboss-as seems to be failing to start with some errors around logging. when I run systemctl start ovirt-engine.service i get the following in the logs: Feb 6 14:33:52 host1 engine-service.py[25212]: Started engine process 25213. Failed to configure handler FILE on Logger '' in context org.jboss.logmanager.LogContext@afc824e: Handler FILE has no class name Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError at org.jboss.as.server.Main.main(Main.java:73) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:57) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:601) at org.jboss.modules.Module.run(Module.java:260) at org.jboss.modules.Main.main(Main.java:291) Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: The LogManager was not properly installed (you must set the "java.util.logging.manager" system property to "org.jboss.logmanager.LogManager") at org.jboss.logmanager.Logger.getLogger(Logger.java:60) at org.jboss.logmanager.log4j.BridgeRepositorySelector.<clinit>(BridgeRepositorySelector.java:42) ... 7 more Feb 6 14:33:53 host1 systemd[1]: ovirt-engine.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=1 Feb 6 14:33:53 host1 engine-service.py[25230]: The engine PID file "/var/run/ovirt-engine.pid" contains 25213, but that process doesn't exist.

[Users] MAC in use when importing/cloning a VM
by Nicolas Ecarnot 06 Feb '13

06 Feb '13

Hi, When importing VMs into our export domain, they appear in a list that allows me to restore them. The restore window allows to clone instead of restoring, especially in case of a pure import. Many imports went all right, but some recent one failed due to a MAC address already in use somewhere. The import window does not seem to give a way to change the network setup of the VM, even if it is imported and not started. I don't know how to modify the interface setup of a vm before importing/cloning it? -- Nicolas Ecarnot

[Users] error using cli on ovirt 3.1

I'm trying to setup a way to restart a large group of windows vms on a schedule. I'm getting a connection failure that seems related to the use of https but I'm not sure. error: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'source_address' I ran: ovirt-shell -A <path to server cert/certfile exported from browser> -c and my .ovirtshellrc is: [ovirt-shell] username = "admin@internal" url = https://my.internal.url/api #insecure = False #filter = False #timeout = -1 password = ********************** I tried putting the ca_cert = <path to cert> but that clearly was not allowed in .ovirtshellrc ideas? -- -- James P.

[Users] Community feedback on the new UI-plugin Framework
by Oved Ourfalli 06 Feb '13

06 Feb '13

Hey all, We had an oVirt workshop this week, which included a few sessions about the new oVirt UI Plugin framework, including a Hackaton and a BOF session. I've gathered some feedback we got from the different participants about the framework, and what they would like to see in the future of it. 1. People liked the fact that it is a simple framework, allowing you to do nice extensions rapidly, without the need to know complex technologies (simple javascript knowledge is all you need to know). 2. People want the framework to provide tools for adding UI components (main/sub tabs, dialogs, etc.) that aren't URL based, but are based on components we currently have in oVirt, such as grids, key-value pairs (such as the general sub-tab), action buttons in these custom tabs and etc. The main reason for that is to easily develop a plugin with an oVirt-like look-and-feel. Chris Morrissey from Netapp showed a very nice plugin he wrote that did have an oVirt-like look-and-feel, but it wasn't easy.... and it required him to to develop something specific for the plugin to interact with, in the 3rd party application (something similar to the work we did in the oVirt-Foreman UI-plugin). 3. Support adding tasks to the system - plugins may trigger asynchronous tasks behind the scene, both oVirt and external ones. oVirt tasks and their progress will be reflected in the tasks management view, but if the flows contain external tasks as well, then it would be hard to track through the oVirt UI. 4. Plugin management * The ability to see what plugins are installed... install new plugins and remove existing ones. * Change the plugin configuration through webadmin * Distinguish between public plugin configuration entries (entries the user to change), to private ones (entries it can't). I guess that this point will be relevant for engine-plugins as well (once support for such plugins will be available) so we should consider providing a similar solution for both. Also, Chris pointed out that it should be taken into consideration as well when working on supporting HA-oVirt-engine, as plugins are vital part of the oVirt environment. If you find the feedback above true, or you have other comments that weren't mentioned here, please share it with us! Thank you, Oved P.S: I guess the slides will be uploaded sometime next week (I guess someone would have asked it soon... so now you have your answer :-) )
