VM - HDD vs SSD virtual disks
by duparchy＠esrf.fr 08 Mar '24

08 Mar '24

Hi, In Windows 11 VMs, virtual disks are reported as "HDD" whereas the underlying storage is SSD (ISCSI Storage Array). This may lead to unnecessary defragmentation and other "optimizations". Is there something to do to flag virtual disks as being "SSD" ? It is also detected as "Thin-provisioned". Which is also false. From the VM point of view we create our disks as "preallocated". Thin-provisioning is handled at the underlying storage array level. I don't think that it's a good idea to cascade to thin-provisioning features, that are of different nature and don't act together.

Fail to web-console Hosted Engine
by ponarin.sv＠gmail.com 07 Mar '24

07 Mar '24

Good afternoon. I'm mocking up Red virtualization in the HostedEngine+Iscsi configuration. I installed the Engine on one host, added Iscsi storage to store the Engine, I try to log into the Engine’s web console, but the page does not load -ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED. I can't ping anything from Engine. I can only log into Engine from the host via shh or vm-console. Engine statu : {"vm": "up", "health": "good", "detail": "Up"} What errors can there be? Entries in /etc/hosts have been made. After pinging and looking at the arp tables of everything I could, I realized that the problem was in the connection between the ovirtmgmt interface of the Host and the eth0 Engine. But I haven’t figured out how to fix this yet. Sorry for my English - it's my second language.

oVirt cockpit installation
by Fedele Stabile 07 Mar '24

07 Mar '24

Good morning everyone, I ask for the correct procedure to install oVirt. At the moment I only have one server available, so I install the iso on this server ovirt-node-ng-installer-4.5.5-2023113015.el8 via the cockpit web interface as a second step I have to install the vm for the engine then I configure the storage gluster for the virtual machines. It's correct? N.B. It is my intention to add two more ovir nodes as they become available. Fedele

Snapshot chain inconsistency
by Giulio Casella 05 Mar '24

05 Mar '24

Hi, I encountered an issue in removing a snapshot. Trying to remove a snapshot of a VM with two disks I got an error in engine.log (and removal fails): 2024-03-05 15:23:10,568+01 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.MergeStatusCommand] (EE-ManagedExecutorService-commandCoordinator-Thread-1) [a597e182-955b-40ce-8e16-7d9fc7e62b21] Failed to live merge.

oVirt installation error in its dependency

Dear Support, I have tried to install oVirt in Standalone engine mode, after set the entire configuration it starts the installation without pop up any error, however in the finish it comes up with a message as shows below. It seems to be everything ok unlike the package dependecy which I don't have any idea on how to overcome this. Anyone there could throw me some idea ? --== END OF CONFIGURATION ==-- [ INFO ] Stage: Setup validation [WARNING] Less than 16384MB of memory is available --== CONFIGURATION PREVIEW ==-- Application mode : both Default SAN wipe after delete : False Host FQDN : [name_of_myserver] Firewall manager : firewalld Update Firewall : True Set up Cinderlib integration : False Configure local Engine database : True Set application as default page : True Configure Apache SSL : True Keycloak installation : True Engine database host : localhost Engine database port : 5432 Engine database secured connection : False Engine database host name validation : False Engine database name : engine Engine database user name : engine Engine installation : True PKI organization : fec.unicamp.br Set up ovirt-provider-ovn : True DWH installation : True DWH database host : localhost DWH database port : 5432 DWH database secured connection : False DWH database host name validation : False DWH database name : ovirt_engine_history Configure local DWH database : True Grafana integration : True Grafana database user name : ovirt_engine_history_grafana Keycloak database host : localhost Keycloak database port : 5432 Keycloak database secured connection : False Keycloak database host name validation : False Keycloak database name : ovirt_engine_keycloak Keycloak database user name : ovirt_engine_keycloak Configure local Keycloak database : True Configure VMConsole Proxy : True Configure WebSocket Proxy : True Please confirm installation settings (OK, Cancel) [OK]: [ INFO ] Stage: Transaction setup [ INFO ] Stopping engine service [ INFO ] Stopping ovirt-fence-kdump-listener service [ INFO ] Stopping dwh service [ INFO ] Stopping vmconsole-proxy service [ INFO ] Stopping websocket-proxy service [ INFO ] Stage: Misc configuration (early) [ INFO ] Stage: Package installation [ ERROR ] DNF Problem 1: package ovirt-vmconsole-proxy-1.0.9-3.el9.noarch from centos-ovirt45 requires ovirt-vmconsole = 1.0.9-3.el9, but none of the providers can be installed -

Advice on upgrading oVirt 4.2 CentOS 7.x cluster to oVirt 4.5 Rocky Linux 8.9
by ovirt＠the-dawg.net 29 Feb '24

29 Feb '24

I have multiple aging clusters that I now need to upgrade both the host OS and the oVirt release. I have seen the notes about upgrading 4.2 to 4.3 and then being able to upgrade to 4.5, but what's not so clear is how to upgrade the host nodes' OS versions. After thinking about it, I wonder if this method is sane. Any advice or guidance is greatly appreciated. 1) spin up a new cluster running oVirt 4.5.x on the latest Rocky Linux release. 2) shutdown VMs on the original cluster 3) detach the domain storage 4) snapshot the domain storage (for rollback) 5) import the domain on the new cluster. 6) reload the OS on the original cluster to the new OS release (no local storage) 7) add those hosts to the new cluster

Snapshots and mess with Storage
by thorsten.bolten＠googlemail.com 29 Feb '24

Hi, I experienced a weird Failure. I hope I explain it understandable and not too hard to read We had issues with our backups, that they can't finalize Here is a Thread someone having the same issue. https://forums.veeam.com/ovirt-kvm-f62/veeam-rhv-12-1-command-removeimageti… so I made some investigations and recognized, it seems to be an Issue with Snapshot 1. I created a Snapshot https://paste.fo/c0b8e77a3400 what works 2. Then I tried to deleted the snapshot, what didn't work https://paste.fo/013e5632e0d6 So I logged in to a node and checked several things First strange thing was, I can see pvs vgs etc, I am used, that ovirt hides them in the System (on one of those nodes it's still the case) but anyways [root@ovnb05 ~]# pvs WARNING: Couldn't find device with uuid uHJs0a-T7R3-2H8E-15W9-cGqW-ZN1e-xsdCsb.

virtio-scsi. SSD vs HDD

HI, Is there a way to set a disk as being SSD (which really is). Or, better, set an entire Storage Domain being SSD ? This would prevent the schedule optimization to be automatically ON in Windows. and maybe enable other underlying optimization (TRIM ?)

Hi team, I am using Ovirt 4.4 and ISCSI as my storage domain. Some of my VMs have actual sizes showing more than virtual size and when we look inside the Vm the used space is much less than the actual size. What could be an issue here and how can we resolve the same? Any help will be highly appreciated.

Locked VHDD - Help To Unlock/Delete
by Matthew J Black 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

Hi All, I've gone and made a (bad) mistake. When creating a new VM I accidentally selected the wrong Storage Domain for the VM's VHDD; a Storage Domain with less space available than the size of the new (thick provisioned) VHDD. So now I want to delete that VHDD (and possibly the accompanying VM) and start over. However, the VHDD is "Locked" and I can't figure out a way to delete it (or Unlock it, or delete the VM, or Unattach the VHDD, etc, etc, etc). I can't find anything online so hopefully someone here can help me out. For the record I have full Admin access to *all* physical and virtual resources and I don't mind doing things via CLI (which I suspect is what's going to be required). I'm also familia with SQL (MariaDB, MS-SQL) but not Postgres, so if this is going to required manipulating the oVirt DB then so-be-it, I can do that as well. Thanks in advance Cheers Dulux-Oz

ovirt-45-upstream GPG Key Error
by Matthew J Black 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

Hi All, We just picked up a GPG Key error when running `dnf install ovirt-engine-appliance` in preparation of a fresh oVirt v4.5.5 install on RL v9.3: ~~~ oVirt upstream for CentOS Stream 9 - oVirt 4.5 79 kB/s | 1.6 kB 00:00 Importing GPG key 0x24901D0C: Userid : "oVirt <infra(a)ovirt.org>" Fingerprint: 3C98 E81D B93D EA6D 54DE 690E 44E4 75CB 2490 1D0C From : /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-oVirt-4.5 Is this ok [y/N]: y Key imported successfully Import of key(s) didn't help, wrong key(s)? Public key for ovirt-engine-appliance-4.5-20231201120201.1.el9.x86_64.rpm is not installed. Failing package is: ovirt-engine-appliance-4.5-20231201120201.1.el9.x86_64 GPG Keys are configured as: file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-oVirt-4.5 ~~~ An error? An issue with the repo definition? Can it safely be ignored (normally I'd say "No" but its from the oVirt Tam's own repo...)? Is the fingerprint above the correct one (and for that matter, where is the GPG Key's Fingerprint recorded on the oVirt Website so that we can check compliance ourselves)? Anyway, thought I'd let people know (further details can be provide upon request) Cheers Dulux-Oz

Using External CA
by Brent Saner 26 Feb '24

26 Feb '24

Hello all- I am looking for a methodology to force oVirt to use certs/keys managed and deployed externally. These are automated by our various automation systems and are configured to match our security policies. Rogue and/or non-transparent and/or standalone CAs in our org do not comply with our security policy. If I pre-deploy certificates and keys, does oVirt engine still need to be a CA? Similarly, our encryption policy requires use of RSA 4096 or ED25519 for SSH. This, as I understand it, is also not compatible with the RSA 2048 generated/used by the engine's internal CA. Is SSHing to this new host using this key necessary, or can I externally enroll a new host into a cluster or - if not - use different SSH key via the engine (likely derived from the above/below-mentioned certs, which may be RSA 4096)? Essentially, could I: 1. Pre-provision certificates and keys in /etc/pki/ovirt-*/ with the appropriate filenames<https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/infra/pki.html#fi…> 2. Run engine-setup for the first time (using an answers file)? Will engine-setup balk at the existence of those files, silently overwrite them, or use them? Thanks in advance.

VM disk went un-allocated after storage migration
by rootpentester20＠gmail.com 25 Feb '24

25 Feb '24

Hi Team, I am using Ovirt 4.4, I added new storage LUN and did a storage migration of one VM disk which had 400GB of data. AFter migration, the disk became un-allocated in windows and now it's asking to re-initialize, I am afraid that data has been lost. Is there a way we can recover it back? Thanks

many VMs in my Ovirt 4.4 infra show actual sizes greater than the virtual size of disks plus used space from inside of the VM is much less than actual size. Thanks

4.5.5. install ovirt engine stops error node-ansible-async_wrapper.py [16052] still running 55070.
by antonio.riggio＠mail.com 22 Feb '24

22 Feb '24

I noticed when doing the install of the engine it cant be done in the cockpit i dont see the tab in the frame so I did the install command line no problem with that. During the install of the engine it disconnects and in the messages it just continues with node-ansible-async_wrapper.py [16052] still running 55070. Any idea what this means ? How can I get this to install. I have done 4.3 installs in past with no problems.

importing local storage domain problem
by Gianluca Cecchi 21 Feb '24

21 Feb '24

Hello, I had a lab environment in 4.4.10, composed of only one host and local storage DC and with an external engine. I had 3 disks on this system, with OS in the first one and local storage domains in the second and third one. I detached the storage domains (I forgot to remove them afterwards) from the original env Afterwards I created a completely new engine on 4.5 (not using any backup) and then I reutilized the host installing the OS in the first disk overwriting the previous env. I have mounted the filesystems for the storage domains on the second and third disk as before, but I see that if I try to execute "import storage domain", the local type is not there. And if I select "new storage domain" I receive the error operation canceled Error while executing action New Local Storage Domain: Error in creating a Storage Domain. The selected storage path is not empty (probably contains another Storage Domain). Either remove the existing Storage Domain from this path, or change the Storage path). Is there any file I can delete from the directory tree that reproduces the "removal" action I forgot? Or any workarounds? Thanks in advance, Gianluca

Does oVirt is exposed to CVE-2024-1597 ? To be exposed, the jdbc driver needs to be used with PreferQueryMode=SIMPLE. Is that the situation ?

NMState verification error when setting up a bonding interface
by Maximilian Grüttemeier 20 Feb '24

20 Feb '24

Hello fellow oVirt Users. I am trying to setup a bond interface on my host, but for whatever reason I am unable to do so trough the host network configuration. Actually I do know the issue, and it’s a bit bizarre as I don’t know what causes it. If you take a look at the following snippet of my supervdsm.log file, you will see that the NMstate verification fails due to a difference between the current config and the desired config. The thing is I have not made any of the additional configuration options. I literally installed the OS, installed the oVirt host and tried to setup a network bond. Has anyone experienced this? Does anyone know how to fix this? ``` Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/vdsm/supervdsm_server.py", line 80, in wrapper res = func(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/vdsm/network/api.py", line 193, in setupNetworks _setup_networks(networks, bondings, options) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/vdsm/network/api.py", line 217, in _setup_networks netswitch.configurator.setup(networks, bondings, options, in_rollback) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/vdsm/network/netswitch/configurator.py", line 53, in setup _setup_nmstate(networks, bondings, options, in_rollback) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/vdsm/network/netswitch/configurator.py", line 76, in _setup_nmstate nmstate.setup(desired_state, verify_change=not in_rollback) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/vdsm/network/nmstate/api.py", line 29, in setup state_apply(desired_state, verify_change=verify_change) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/libnmstate/netapplier.py", line 140, in apply plugins, net_state, verify_change, save_to_disk, verify_retry File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/libnmstate/netapplier.py", line 190, in _apply_ifaces_state _verify_change(plugins, net_state) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/libnmstate/netapplier.py", line 197, in _verify_change net_state.verify(current_state) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/libnmstate/net_state.py", line 119, in verify self._ifaces.verify(current_state.get(Interface.KEY)) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/libnmstate/ifaces/ifaces.py", line 805, in verify cur_iface.state_for_verify(), libnmstate.error.NmstateVerificationError: desired ======= --- name: ovirtmgmt type: linux-bridge state: up bridge: options: stp: enabled: false port: - name: bond0 vlan: {} ipv4: enabled: true address: - ip: 10.10.120.1 prefix-length: 16 dhcp: false ipv6: enabled: false mtu: 1500 current ======= --- name: ovirtmgmt type: linux-bridge state: up accept-all-mac-addresses: false bridge: options: group-addr: 01:80:C2:00:00:00 group-forward-mask: 0 hash-max: 4096 mac-ageing-time: 300 multicast-last-member-count: 2 multicast-last-member-interval: 100 multicast-querier: false multicast-querier-interval: 25500 multicast-query-interval: 12500 multicast-query-response-interval: 1000 multicast-query-use-ifaddr: false multicast-router: 1 multicast-snooping: true multicast-startup-query-count: 2 multicast-startup-query-interval: 3125 stp: enabled: false forward-delay: 15 hello-time: 2 max-age: 20 priority: 32768 port: [] ethtool: feature: highdma: true rx-gro: true tx-generic-segmentation: true tx-tcp-segmentation: true tx-vlan-hw-insert: true ipv4: enabled: true address: - ip: 10.10.120.1 prefix-length: 16 dhcp: false ipv6: enabled: false lldp: enabled: false mac-address: AC:16:2D:BD:03:D0 mtu: 1500 wait-ip: any difference ========== --- desired +++ current @@ -2,13 +2,38 @@ name: ovirtmgmt type: linux-bridge state: up +accept-all-mac-addresses: false bridge: options: + group-addr: 01:80:C2:00:00:00 + group-forward-mask: 0 + hash-max: 4096 + mac-ageing-time: 300 + multicast-last-member-count: 2 + multicast-last-member-interval: 100 + multicast-querier: false + multicast-querier-interval: 25500 + multicast-query-interval: 12500 + multicast-query-response-interval: 1000 + multicast-query-use-ifaddr: false + multicast-router: 1 + multicast-snooping: true + multicast-startup-query-count: 2 + multicast-startup-query-interval: 3125 stp: enabled: false - port: - - name: bond0 - vlan: {} + forward-delay: 15 + hello-time: 2 + max-age: 20 + priority: 32768 + port: [] +ethtool: + feature: + highdma: true + rx-gro: true + tx-generic-segmentation: true + tx-tcp-segmentation: true + tx-vlan-hw-insert: true ipv4: enabled: true address: @@ -17,4 +42,8 @@ dhcp: false ipv6: enabled: false +lldp: + enabled: false +mac-address: AC:16:2D:BD:03:D0 mtu: 1500 +wait-ip: any ```
