[Users] SOLVED: Recovering VMs when the engine is lost
by Joern Ott 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

Hello Itamar and Ayal, I tried to recover the VMs by using the first method (converting the master into an export domain) but after the changes, I couldn't add the export domain as it was "an incompatible version". Therefore I explored the other way of restoring: - First, I copied the master/vms folder from the master storage to my local host (and renamed al the .ovf to .xml so I can double click them and view them in an xml browser on my stupid Windows) - As we store the ovirt NFS export folder on /data/ovirt, I connected to all nodes and moved the $UUID folder from /data/ovirt to /data/old. - I added all the cpu nodes and NFS storages to the new cluster - I recreated the virtual machines based on the xml files in the specs and our internal vm specifications with exactly the same MAC address (we specify our own) and disk sizes, having the disks residing on the same storages as the old disks - Looking at the xml file of the new VMs I figured out the folders and file names of the new disks and then moved the old disks over: cd /data/ovirt/$UUID/images/$FOLDERUUID mv /data/old/images/$OLDFOLDERUUID/$OLDDISKUUID ./$DISKUUID mv /data/old/images/$OLDFOLDERUUID/$OLDDISKUUID.meta ./$DISKUUID.meta mv /data/old/images/$OLDFOLDERUUID/$OLDDISKUUID.lease ./$DISKUUID.lease - After doing this, the new VM starts nicely using the disks with all the content on them Of course, you can also choose other storages for the new disks, but then you have to rsync -avS the sparse files over to the new storage and this takes hours for 600G disks. Caveats: There were a few machines I actually created from a template. In the XML files for those machines, we had the wrong MAC addresses for the nics. I assume, that these were the ones generated during the template clone and not the final ones I set after cloning the VMs. But as we have nice host specifications as yaml files for every host, I was relying more on them than on the XML. In the end, it took me around 3 minutes of manual work to recreate the vm, move the disks over and start the vm. Automating that with a bit of yaml and xml parsing magic and recreating the VMS automatically via script could lead to recreating a vm in under 1 minute (except when moving disks from storage to storage).

[Users] node to engine connection

Hi all, I want to ask if the node is ever initiating connections to the engine, or if the communication is started by the engine only? Best regards, Cristian Falcas

[Users] ovirt-node install hangs
by Alexandre Santos 28 Nov '12

28 Nov '12

Hi, I'm trying to install the ovirt-node iso image on a SATA disk and when it gets to the screen where it shows 25% completed the kernel hangs. I can't connect using a serial console to see what has happened. If I reboot using a usb linux disk I see that the SATA disk has been formated and the partitions that existed before disappeared, being there just one partition of type "ee" If I use a 8 GB usb pen-drive instead of the SATA disk, the installation comes to an end and I reboot but then I get some error about not getting /dev/mapper/by-name/Root and the boot fails to a dracut shell. Any ideas? BTW, this happens with both 2.5.1 and 2.5.2 Alex

The problem I have with USB install is when installation is finished and I = want to use my node, the root FS (or any required FS) is not found.

I *think* this is a feature of being registered to ovirt-engine. Once you are registered, you can't change the network through the TUI anymore. If you're not registered with Engine, please elaborate a bit and I'll try to figure out what is going on. What you're saying makes sense. The problem I had was that my node was boot= ing with DHCP and the IP changed. When I got to the engine / web administra= tor, my Host was not detected and I couldn't change it's IP, only the hostn= ame...

I *think* this is a feature of being registere= d to ovirt-engine.  Once you are registered, you can't change the n= etwork through the TUI anymore. If you're not registered with Eng= ine, please elaborate a bit and I'll try to figure out what is going on.= What you're saying makes sense. The problem I had was that my node = was booting with DHCP and the IP changed. When I got to the engine / web ad= ministrator, my Host was not detected and I couldn't change it's IP, only t= he hostname... On the TUI I can't change the IP because I'm registered but = can't change it also on the engine. Is this correct?

[Users] Native USB redirection does not work - (remote-viewer) did not claim interface 0 before use
by Sigbjorn Lie 28 Nov '12

28 Nov '12

Hi, I receive the following errors when I attempt to use native USB redirection in RHEV 3.1 beta. It's a smart card reader I am attempting to redirect into a virtual Windows 7 x64 machine. Is this a known error? I've also posted this message to the spice-devel list. Not sure which list is the correct list for this issue.

[Users] Debian VM.

Hello everyone. After installing debian as virtual machine during the boot I got the following error: Loadin Linux 2.6.32-5-686 .... unaligned pointer 0x8ef20002 Aborted. Press and key to exit. In research, I found that this error is a problem of KVM. In such cases, there is something that can be done? -- “Encarada do ponto de vista da juventude, a vida parece um futuro indefinidamente longo, ao passo que, na velhice, ela parece um passado deveras curto. Assim, a vida no seu início se apresenta do mesmo modo que as coisas quando as olhamos através de um binóculo usado ao contrário; mas, ao seu final, ela se parece com as coisas tal qual são vistas quando o binóculo é usado de modo normal. Um homem precisa ter envelhecido e vivido bastante para perceber como a vida é curta”. (Poema de Arthur Schopenhauer)

Hi all, i can't start the ovirt engine anymore. The error is: Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine. Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit. It seems that the error appears when the parameter -XX:+UseCompressedOops is set. If I run the java command wothour it, the program starts. java -version java version "1.7.0_09-icedtea" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (fedora-2.3.3.fc17.1-i386) OpenJDK Client VM (build 23.2-b09, mixed mode) The machine is: uname -a Linux wikitiki.mindsoft.com 3.6.7-4.fc17.i686 #1 SMP Tue Nov 20 20:13:04 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Is this some missconfiguration on my part?
