How to debug a failed Run Once launch
by Shareef Jalloq 30 Mar '20

30 Mar '20

Hi, I'm trying to create a Windows Server 2019 VM and having found the virtio-win package that needed to be installed am facing the next hurdle. I've followed the documentation and I'm using the Run Once option with the following boot options: Attach Floppy: virtio-win_servers_amd64.vfd Attach CD: Win 2029 ISO CD-ROM at top of Predefined Boot Sequence Clicking OK starts the VM but it immediately fails with a Failed Launching pop up. How do I go about debugging this? Shareef.

Error installing single hyperconverged host using CentOS7
by wodel youchi 29 Mar '20

29 Mar '20

Hi, I am using the latest version of oVirt 4.3.9 I am using nested KVM for a LAB. the CentOS is updated with the latest packages available. The goal of my LAB is to test DR on hypervonerged environment, Why using a CentOS host rather than the oVirt-node, because of the my Internet connection, which is not great, I find simple to just update the new packages on the host rather than update all of the host's image. I installed a CentOS host using the basic profile, then I added the oVirt repository and then installed the needed packages, and by the way the oVirt documentation on hyperconverged setup doesn't mention gluster-ansible-roles as a prerequisite. The Gluster phase is done correctly, but the deployment of the VM Engine fails every time at the same task : TASK [ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Get local VM IP I repeated the deployment three times and I get the same result. Then I tested with ovirt-node and it worked fine. You can find the logs of my last attempt attached. Regards.

cannot manually migrate vm's
by eevans＠digitaldatatechs.com 29 Mar '20

29 Mar '20

I upgraded from 4.3.8 to 4.3.9. Before the migration, I could manually migrate vm's and also it would automatically load balance the hosts. Now I cannot manually migrate and I have one server with no vm's and 2 with several. If I put a host into maintenance mode, it will migrate the vm's off to other hosts, but before I noticed it would move vm's around to load balance and now it does not. Not sure if this is a bug or not. How it happens: When I right click on a vm and click migrate, the migrate screen flashes on screen then disappears. Same behavior if I highlight the vm and click the migrate button at the top of the vm screen. It's not critical, but something that needs corrected. Any help or advice is very much appreciated. Thanks.

Cinderlib db not contained in engine-backup
by Thomas Klute 29 Mar '20

29 Mar '20

Dear oVirt users, I just noticed that the ovirt_cinderlib database does not seem to be contained in the archive file created by engine-backup. Is it missing there? Or is there any other way to restore the data of the ovirt_cinderlib database in case a restore the engine-backup would be required? Best regards, Thomas

Import storage domain with different storage type?
by Rik Theys 28 Mar '20

28 Mar '20

Hi, We have an oVirt environment with a FC storage domain. Multiple LUNs on a SAN are exported to the oVirt nodes and combined in a single FC storage domain. The SAN replicates the disks to another storage box that has iSCSI connectivity. Is it possible to - in case of disaster - import the existing, replicated, storage domain as an iSCSI domain and import/run the VM's from that domain? Or is import of a storage domain only possible if they are the same type? Does it also work if multiple LUNs are needed to form the storage domain? Are there any special actions that should be performed beyond the regular import action? Regards, Rik -- Rik Theys System Engineer KU Leuven - Dept. Elektrotechniek (ESAT) Kasteelpark Arenberg 10 bus 2440 - B-3001 Leuven-Heverlee +32(0)16/32.11.07 ---------------------------------------------------------------- <<Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors>>

Doubts related to single HCI and storage network
by Gianluca Cecchi 28 Mar '20

28 Mar '20

Hello, I deployed HCI 4.3.9 with gluster and single node from the cockpit based interface. During install I specified the storage network, using 1) For the mgmt network and hostname of the hypervisor 172.16.0.30 ovirt.mydomain 2) for the storage network (even if not used in single host... but in case of future addition..) 10.50.50.11 ovirtst.mydomain.storage all went good. And system runs quite ok: I was able to deploy an OCP 4.3.8 cluster with 3 workers and 3 masters... a part from erratic "vm paused" messages for which I'm going to send a dedicated mail... I see in engine.log warning messages of this kind: 2020-03-27 00:32:08,655+01 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.gluster.GlusterVolumesListReturn] (DefaultQuartzScheduler2) [15cbd52e] Could not associate brick 'ovirtst.mydomain.storage:/gluster_bricks/engine/engine' of volume '40ad3b5b-4cc1-495a-815b-3c7e3436b15b' with correct network as no gluster network found in cluster '9cecfa02-6c6c-11ea-8a94-00163e0acd5c' I would have expected the setup to create a gluster network as it was part of the initial configuration.... could this be a subject for an RFE? What can I do to fix this warning? Thanks, Gianluca

Speed Issues
by Christian Reiss 27 Mar '20

Hey folks, gluster related question. Having SSD in a RAID that can do 2 GB writes and Reads (actually above, but meh) in a 3-way HCI cluster connected with 10gbit connection things are pretty slow inside gluster. I have these settings: Options Reconfigured: cluster.server-quorum-type: server cluster.quorum-type: auto cluster.shd-max-threads: 8 features.shard: on features.shard-block-size: 64MB server.event-threads: 8 user.cifs: off cluster.shd-wait-qlength: 10000 cluster.locking-scheme: granular cluster.eager-lock: enable performance.low-prio-threads: 32 network.ping-timeout: 30 cluster.granular-entry-heal: enable storage.owner-gid: 36 storage.owner-uid: 36 cluster.choose-local: true client.event-threads: 16 performance.strict-o-direct: on network.remote-dio: enable performance.client-io-threads: on nfs.disable: on storage.fips-mode-rchecksum: on transport.address-family: inet cluster.readdir-optimize: on cluster.metadata-self-heal: on cluster.data-self-heal: on cluster.entry-self-heal: on cluster.data-self-heal-algorithm: full features.uss: enable features.show-snapshot-directory: on features.barrier: disable auto-delete: enable snap-activate-on-create: enable Writing inside the /gluster_bricks yields those 2GB/sec writes, Reading the same. Reading inside the /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/ dir reads go down to 366mb/sec while writes plummet to to 200mb/sec. Summed up: Writing into the SSD Raid in the lvm/xfs gluster brick directory is fast, writing into the mounted gluster dir is horribly slow. The above can be seen and repeated on all 3 servers. The network can do full 10gbit (tested with, among others: rsync, iperf3). Anyone with some idea on whats missing/ going on here? Thanks folks, as always stay safe and healthy! -- with kind regards, mit freundlichen Gruessen, Christian Reiss

bare-metal to self-hosted engine
by kim.kargaard＠noroff.no 27 Mar '20

27 Mar '20

Hi, We currently have an ovirt engine running on a server. The server has CentOS installed and the ovirt-engine installed, but is not a node that hosts VM's. I would like to move the ovirt-engine to a self-hosted engine and it seems like this articles is the one to follow: https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/self-hosted/chap-Migrating_from_Bare_Me… Am I correct that I can migrate from a bare-metal CentOS server engine to a self-hosted VM of the engine and is the documentation above the only documentation I will need to complete this process? Kind regards Kim

Orphaned ISO Storage Domain
by bob.franzke＠mdaemon.com 26 Mar '20

26 Mar '20

Greetings all, Full disclosure, complete OVIRT novice here. I inherited an OVIRT system and had a complete ovirt-engine back in December-January. Because of time and my inexperience with OVIRT, I had to resort to hiring consultants to rebuild my OVIRT engine from backups. That’s a situation I never want to repeat. Anyway, we were able to piece it together and at least get most functionality back. The previous setup had a ISO storage domain called ‘ISO-COLO’ that seems to have been hosted on the engine server itself. The engine hostname is ‘mydesktop’. We restored the engine from backups I had taken of the SQL DB and various support files using the built in OVIRT backup tool. So now when looking into the OVIRT console, I see the storage domain listed. It has a status of ‘inactive’ showing in the list of various storage domains we have setup for this. We tried to ‘activate’ it and it fails activation. The path listed for the domain is mydesktop:/gluster/colo-iso. On the host however there is no mountpoint that equates to that path: [root@mydesktop ~]# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on devtmpfs 47G 0 47G 0% /dev tmpfs 47G 12K 47G 1% /dev/shm tmpfs 47G 131M 47G 1% /run tmpfs 47G 0 47G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup /dev/mapper/centos-root 50G 5.4G 45G 11% / /dev/sda2 1014M 185M 830M 19% /boot /dev/sda1 200M 12M 189M 6% /boot/efi /dev/mapper/centos-home 224G 15G 210G 7% /home tmpfs 9.3G 0 9.3G 0% /run/user/0 The original layout looked like this on the broken engine: [root@mydesktop ~]# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/centos_mydesktop-root 50G 27G 20G 58% / devtmpfs 24G 0 24G 0% /dev tmpfs 24G 28K 24G 1% /dev/shm tmpfs 24G 42M 24G 1% /run tmpfs 24G 0 24G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup /dev/mapper/centos_mydesktop-home 25G 45M 24G 1% /home /dev/sdc1 1014M 307M 708M 31% /boot /dev/mapper/centos_mydesktop-gluster 177G 127G 42G 76% /gluster tmpfs 4.7G 0 4.7G 0% /run/user/0 So it seems the orphaned storage domain is just point to a path that does not exist on the new Engine host. Also noticed some of the hosts are trying to aces this storage domain and getting errors: The error message for connection mydesktop:/gluster/colo-iso returned by VDSM was: Problem while trying to mount target 3/17/2010:47:05 AM Failed to connect Host vm-host-colo-2 to the Storage Domains ISO-Colo. 3/17/2010:47:05 AM So it seems hosts are trying to be connected to this storage domain but cannot because its not there. Any of the files from the original path are not available so I am not even sure what we are missing if anything. So what are my options here. Destroy the current ISO domain and recreate it, or somehow provide the correct path on the engine server? Currently the storage space I can use is mounted with /home, which is a different path than the original one. Not sure if anything can be done with the disk layout at this point to correct this on the engine server itself to get the gluster path back. Right now we cannot attach CDs to VMs for booting. No choices show up for use when doing a ‘run once’ on an existing VM so I would like to get this working so I can fix a broken VM that I need to boot off of ISO media. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

how to use idrac interface as a vm network
by Nathanaël Blanchet 25 Mar '20

25 Mar '20

Hello, I noticed an idrac interface was available in the host network since an undefined ovirt version. Mine are already plugged as dedicated vlan to administrate host at the lowest level. I tested to use it as a vm network on the same vlan, but it doesn't work. What am I supposed to do with this available interface? PS: on HP hosts, no Ilo interface appears in host network tab -- Nathanaël Blanchet Supervision réseau SIRE 227 avenue Professeur-Jean-Louis-Viala 34193 MONTPELLIER CEDEX 5 Tél. 33 (0)4 67 54 84 55 Fax 33 (0)4 67 54 84 14 blanchet(a)abes.fr

If you want to have a better experience you can test oVirt 4.4.0 Alpha on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.2 beta. Known Issues - After installation open the Default cluster and hit “Save”, for any other new Cluster using CPU autodetection the dialog needs to be explicitly saved after the detection happens, after first host is added. (bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1770697) Installation instructions For the engine: either use appliance or: - Install CentOS Linux 8 minimal from http://centos.mirror.garr.it/centos/8.1.1911/isos/x86_64/CentOS-8.1.1911-x8… - dnf install https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release44-pre.rpm - dnf update (reboot if needed) - dnf module enable -y javapackages-tools pki-deps 389-ds - dnf install ovirt-engine - engine-setup For the nodes: Either use oVirt Node ISO or: - Install CentOS Linux 8 from http://centos.mirror.garr.it/centos/8.1.1911/isos/x86_64/CentOS-8.1.1911-x8… ; select minimal installation - dnf config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools - dnf install https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release44-pre.rpm - dnf update (reboot if needed) - Attach the host to engine and let it be deployed. What’s new in oVirt 4.4.0 Alpha? - Hypervisors based on CentOS Linux 8 (rebuilt from award winning RHEL8), for both oVirt Node and standalone CentOS Linux hosts - Easier network management and configuration flexibility with NetworkManager - VMs based on a more modern Q35 chipset with legacy seabios and UEFI firmware - Support for direct passthrough of local host disks to VMs - Live migration improvements for High Performance guests. - New Windows Guest tools installer based on WiX framework now moved to VirtioWin project - Dropped support for cluster level prior to 4.2 - Dropped SDK3 support - 4K disks support - Exporting a VM to a data domain - Editing of floating disks - Integrating ansible-runner into engine, which allows a more detailed monitoring of playbooks executed from engine - Adding/reinstalling hosts are now completely based on Ansible - The OpenStack Neutron Agent cannot be configured by oVirt anymore, it should be configured by TripleO instead This release is available now on x86_64 architecture for: * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.1 or newer * CentOS Linux (or similar) 8.1 or newer This release supports Hypervisor Hosts on x86_64 and ppc64le architectures for: * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.1 or newer (8.2 beta recommended) * CentOS Linux (or similar) 8.1 or newer * oVirt Node 4.4 based on CentOS Linux 8.1 (available for x86_64 only) See the release notes [1] for installation instructions and a list of new features and bugs fixed. If you manage more than one oVirt instance, OKD or RDO we also recommend to try ManageIQ <http://manageiq.org/>. In such a case, please be sure to take the qc2 image and not the ova image.

Migrate Hosted Engine to new Storage

Hi Everybody, Does anybody know when we will most likely be able to do a live storage migration of the Hosted Engine? I've been battling with the backup and restore way for a couple of days now already, and it is starting to feel like a fruitless exercise.

Hello, I heard some say SPM disappeared since 3.6. nevertheless, SPM still exists in oVirt admin portal or even in RHV's manual. So, I am wondering whether SPM still exists now. And could I know how to get more detailed information for oVirt internals?? is the code review the best way?
