Re: Fix corrupt self-hosted engine
by Alex K 22 Nov '20

22 Nov '20

For the records, After having fixed the major fs issues with guestfish and since the DB was not starting up, I removed everything from DB data dir and recreated it as below: rm -rf /var/opt/rh/rh-postgresql10/lib/pgsql/data/* /opt/rh/rh-postgresql10/root/usr/bin/postgresql-setup --initdb systemctl restart rh-postgresql10-postgresql.service Then proceeded with the restoration, where I requested to provision all missing databases: engine-backup --mode=restore --file=engine-backup.gz --provision-all-databases \ --log=restore.log --restore-permissions Following this, ran engine-setup, as instructed from the restore operation. Gained engine web access and saw the same running VMs were shown as up without issues. I only observed one VM not able to start due to illegal volume, but that's another story.

Hi, After trying to upload an ISO via the web interface, the upload remains in the "paused by system" state. When I click "cancel" in the upload menu the status stops at "finalizing cleanup". Is there an alternative way to delete this disk?

Found a host rebooting - ways to watch?
by Chris Adams 20 Nov '20

20 Nov '20

I just noticed that one of my oVirt physical hosts has been rebooting due to an apparent hardware voltage fault. It's a Dell, and I've got their tools installed and am monitoring status, but the issue clears itself. It has apparently been doing this for a bit now, and we didn't catch it because (a) there weren't any VMs on it (probably were the first time but they were restarted elsewhere fast enough that it wasn't noticed) and (b) it reboots fast enough that at most it pops up in our monitoring system for one pass and then clears so our NOC either didn't see it or assumed it was okay since it cleared. oVirt has been logging alerts when it happens, but seeing that requires someone to log in and check the logs (and we've got a bunch of different systems to manage, including multiple oVirt clusters, so nobody is doing that on a regular basis). We monitor most things with SNMP and/or CLI checks (we have PRTG, Nagios, and LibreNMS for various different things). What are people doing to monitor the health of their oVirt systems? Is it possible to get alerts emailed to admins? Is there any SNMP support in oVirt to allow external systems to monitor its health? This setup is on 4.3.10 if that matters. -- Chris Adams <cma(a)cmadams.net>

Re: EPYC CPU not being detected correctly on cluster
by Lucia Jelinkova 20 Nov '20

20 Nov '20

Hi, oVirt CPU detection depends on libvirt (and that depends on qemu) CPU models. Could you please run the following command to see what libvirt reports? virsh domcapabilities That should give you the list of CPUs known to libvirt with a usability flag for each CPU. If you find out that the CPU is not usable by libvirt, you might want to dig deeper by querying quemu directly. Locate any VM running on the system by sudo virsh list --all Use the name of a VM in the following command: sudo virsh qemu-monitor-command [your-vm's-name] --pretty '{"execute":"query-cpu-definitions"}' That would give you the list of all CPUs supported by qemu and it will list all cpu's features that are not available on your system.

Upgrade hyperconverged self-hosted ovirt from 4.3 to 4.4
by ralf＠os-s.de 20 Nov '20

20 Nov '20

Hi, has anyone attempted an upgrade from 4.3 to 4.4 in a hyperconverged self-hosted setup? The posted guidelines seem a bit contradictive and not complete. Has anyone tried it and could share his experiences? I am currently having problems when deploying the hosted engine and restoring. The host becomes unresponsive and has hung tasks. Kind regards, Ralf

Hello, I needed to rename all domain names from my NFS storage. VM data and seconds data domains was no problem. But when I try to rename the domain from export domain, a red popup on top opens with this message: Uncaught exception occurred. Please try reloading the page. Details: (TypeError) : ZOj(...) is null Please have your administrator check the UI logs I also notice that, when I rename the path an hit enter, it doesn't write anything to the engine.log Is this a known issue?

Can't use ovirt web interface (500 error)
by lorenzobarbati02＠gmail.com 20 Nov '20

20 Nov '20

Hi, After updating to the latest version of ovirt (standalone installed with engine-setup) I am no longer able to use the web ui. After I log in, in fact, I get a modal error entitled "operation canceled" and with content "a request to the server failed, error 500" Looking at the requests it actually receives an error 500 when it goes to make a request to "/ovirt-engine/webadmin/GenericApiGWTService" which replies "The call failed on the server; see server log for details" These are the last lines of the engine.log: https://pastebin.com/uFgZASuW Is anyone experiencing the same problem or know how to fix it?

How do you manage OVN?
by Alex McWhirter 20 Nov '20

20 Nov '20

I'm not sure if I' missing something, but it seems there is no way built in to oVirt to manage OVN outside of network / subnet creation. In particular routing both between networks and to external networks. Of course you have the OVN utilities, but it seems that the provider API is the preffered method of interaction? As far as i can tell, the only utility that can use this API as intended is ManageIQ, which is a bit a behemoth if you only need the OVN portion of things. So is that it then? Interface with the API directly or use ManageIQ? Just curious what others are doing in regards to OVN.

EPYC CPU not being detected correctly on cluster
by Vinícius Ferrão 19 Nov '20

19 Nov '20

Hi I've an strange issue with two hosts (not using the hypervisor image) with EPYC CPUs, on the engine I got this message: The host CPU does not match the Cluster CPU Type and is running in a degraded mode. It is missing the following CPU flags: model_EPYC. Please update the host CPU microcode or change the Cluster CPU Type.

[ANN] oVirt 4.4.4 Second Release Candidate is now available for testing
by Lev Veyde 19 Nov '20

19 Nov '20

oVirt 4.4.4 Second Release Candidate is now available for testing The oVirt Project is pleased to announce the availability of oVirt 4.4.4 Second Release Candidate for testing, as of November 19th, 2020. This update is the fourth in a series of stabilization updates to the 4.4 series. How to prevent hosts entering emergency mode after upgrade from oVirt 4.4.1 Note: Upgrading from 4.4.2 GA or later should not require re-doing these steps, if already performed while upgrading from 4.4.1 to 4.4.2 GA. These are only required to be done once. Due to Bug 1837864 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1837864> - Host enter emergency mode after upgrading to latest build If you have your root file system on a multipath device on your hosts you should be aware that after upgrading from 4.4.1 to 4.4.4 you may get your host entering emergency mode. In order to prevent this be sure to upgrade oVirt Engine first, then on your hosts: 1. Remove the current lvm filter while still on 4.4.1, or in emergency mode (if rebooted). 2. Reboot. 3. Upgrade to 4.4.4 (redeploy in case of already being on 4.4.4). 4. Run vdsm-tool config-lvm-filter to confirm there is a new filter in place. 5. Only if not using oVirt Node: - run "dracut --force --add multipath” to rebuild initramfs with the correct filter configuration 6. Reboot. 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>. Important notes before you try it Please note this is a pre-release build. The oVirt Project makes no guarantees as to its suitability or usefulness. This pre-release must not be used in production. Installation instructions For installation instructions and additional information please refer to: https://ovirt.org/documentation/ This release is available now on x86_64 architecture for: * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.2 or newer * CentOS Linux (or similar) 8.2 or newer This release supports Hypervisor Hosts on x86_64 and ppc64le architectures for: * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.2 or newer * CentOS Linux (or similar) 8.2 or newer * oVirt Node 4.4 based on CentOS Linux 8.2 (available for x86_64 only) See the release notes [1] for installation instructions and a list of new features and bugs fixed.

Self Hosted Engine a single Bare Metal Server
by LS CHENG 19 Nov '20

19 Nov '20

Hi We are planning to set up a single ovirt node for testing. It is a single Bare Metal Server. I wonder if there is any problem setting up a Self Hosted Engine in this Bare Metal (there is no HA but we don't need it in this case)? I know it is probably not the best practice but it is for training and testing purposes. Thank you

Fix corrupt self-hosted engine
by Alex K 19 Nov '20

19 Nov '20

Hi all, I have a corrupt self-hosted engine (with several file system errors, postgres not able to start) and thus it does not give access to the web UI. This happened following an unlucky split brain resolution (I am running 2 nodes). The two hosts are running VMs also which I would like to keep running as they are needed. When trying to boot into rescue mode (using systemd.unit=emergency.target boot parameter) I get a cursor and nothing else. I have backups of engine files with scope all (using the engine-backup tool). What is the best approach to try and fix the engine or redeploy. Thanks for any help. Alex

How to create a backup in event of hardware failure of a single hosted engine?
by ernestclydeachua＠gmail.com 18 Nov '20

18 Nov '20

Hello everyone, Currently we have a single bare metal that hosts oVirt and glusterFS which later on to be converted to a 3 nodes for HCI, currently another bare metal is coming this week and was planning to initially create it as a backup. is it possible to deploy a new hosted engine then create a gluster volume for 1st one as a backup domain then attach it to the new one if hardware failure occurred, or there is another kind of setup that can be done?

Migration VM
by tiziano.pacioni＠par-tec.it 18 Nov '20

18 Nov '20

Hi, I installed a new server, using the ovirt iso, with the target of migrating the VMs coming from another cluster, contained on another ovirt node. I tried to migrate a vm using the Export Domain, once imported on the new node, i see the vm from web dashboard but, from command line “virsh list --all” is absent, the imported vm does not appear in the list. Also if I try to start it, I get the following error: VM X is down with error. Exit message: unsupported configuration: bus must be 0 for ide controller. Can you help me?

Hi Bradley, usually this is not supposed to happen. I can propose you a fast fix: - Set a node into maintenance (via the UI) and then from the "Installation" drop down menu (upper right) click "reinstall" There is a tab for the HostedEngine and you have to mark it as deployed/installed If it doesn't work,ssh to one of the hosts and provide the output of: hosted-engine --vm-status Best Regards В сряда, 18 ноември 2020 г., 08:08:36 Гринуич+2, McNamara, Bradley <bradley.mcnamara(a)seattle.gov> написа: I'm new to oVirt, but not new to virtualization technologies.

Thanks. :-) > If you go in Compute --> Hosts in web admin gui, do the added hosts have a crown icon on the left of their "Name" column? If not, when you added them possibly you overlooked the "Hosted Engine" section in the window, where by default, if I'm not wrong, the value is "None": that means that the added host doesn't contributed to be one of the "Hosted Engine" ones electable to host the engine VM, but only an hyoervisor. Long time ago I opened two bugzillas about this default with some notes for improving a better experience.... If this is the case, you can remove the hosts one by one and add them again selecting "Deploy" in the Hosted Engine section, for how many you would like to contribute to the score and to be able to host the hosted engine VM. HIH, Gianluca

Please check/share /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/* on all hosts, as well as output of 'hosted-engine --vm-status' on all of them. Good luck and best regards, -- Didi
