Hi, I think you can go to the disk section in UI and migrate the disk from 1 storage domain to another. Best Regards, Strahil Nikolov

Is there a way to tell whether a permission set for a VM is inherited using REST API?
by Anton E 23 Apr '19

23 Apr '19

Hi everyone! My question is in the subject for the most part. I'm trying to backup a vm parameters, including the linked attributes, namely the permissions. But I don't want the inherited permissions to be included into the backup, I only need the attributes specific to the vm. It looks like there is no difference between the inherited and the vm-specific permissions in the output from /ovirt-engine/api/vms/<vm-id>/permissions service. What is the best way to distinguish the specific permissions from the inherited ones? It seems I can follow the link to the particular permission and see whether the vm attribute is set on it and it points to the VM I need, but that would require numerous REST requests to be done. Is there a more elegant way? Maybe I can somehow filter the output of /ovirt-engine/api/vms/<vm-id>/permissions to only include the required info? Thanks in advance. Best regards, Anton.

oVirt 4.3.3 gluster option cluster.choose-local added to 'Optimize for Virt Store'
by Strahil Nikolov 22 Apr '19

22 Apr '19

Hello Community, can someone tell me why the option cluster.choose-local was added to "Optimize for Virt Store" ?Testing my cluster after the patching showed reduced performance , due to relying constantly on network instead of using local NVME brick.I have checked my older volumes and they did not have that option. Is there any benefit to not use the local brick ?Any issues to reset that option and use local brick for reading ? Best Regards,Strahil Nikolov

Hi Shani, I'm aware of this attribute, but my understanding is it only applies for a vm to template or template to vm operations. I don't see how it can be used in order to get the list of vm-specific permissions for an existing VM. Could you please provide an example of that? Thanks and regards, Anton.

Import of VMs failing - 0% progress on qemu-img
by Callum Smith 22 Apr '19

22 Apr '19

Dear All, We've exported some VMs from our old oVirt infrastructure and want to import them into the new one, but qemu-img appears to be failing. We have mounted an export domain populated from the old oVirt in the new hosted engine and are using the GUI to import the VM. Manually running the command sits at 16% CPU, 0% network usage and no progress. It appears to lock the NFS mount and ls and lsof both hang. sudo -u vdsm /usr/bin/qemu-img convert -p -t none -T none -f raw <path to source> -O raw <path to dest> Conversely a simple cp will work (ruling out file permissions errors): sudo -u vddm cp <path to source> <path to test> What might we be doing wrong?

4.3.x upgrade and issues with OVN
by Charles Weber 22 Apr '19

22 Apr '19

Hi everyone, We have had a pair of Ovirt clusters at work, starting with the 3.x. I replaced last year with 4.x cluster on new machines. 4.2 worked great, but when I upgraded to 4.3.2 and now .3 I immediately ran into host networking issues resulting in hung or unable totally to migrate VMs. Configuration notes: 1. I use commercial star.x.x.x SSL cert on engine installed per Ovirt.org instructions 2. I have 2 untagged NICs assigned to ovirtmgmt and Public, both on the same IP range network. I also have another set of VLANs tagged on various NICs. 1 cluster uses HP blades with lots of NICs, the other uses supermicro 1Us with only 2 NICs. 3. I upgraded both engines and hosts to 4.3.2 from 4.2.8. I started seeing hung migrations cleared by restarting vdsm. 4. All computers involved run current CentOS 7.6 5. Both clusters use iscsi on dedicated tagged storage VLAN, seems fine. 6. I upgraded 1 engine and 1 host to 4.3.3 and things got worse. I have not updated any hosts or the second engine since. 7. The 4 hosts on the 4.3.3 engine now have out of sync error that refuses to clear for my Public network. 8. 2 OV 4.3.2 nodes had the following errors with 2 ovn ports. Here is example, perhaps related to the genev_sys_6081 error. ovn-d6eaa1-0: attempting to add tunnel port with same config as port 'ovn-f0f789-0' (::->137.187.160.13 ovn-877214-0: attempting to add tunnel port with same config as port 'ovn-483528-0' 9. I deleted and uninstalled all ovirt related rpms on one node, then did clean node install using latest 4.3 release. Same errors. 10. I downloaded latest node iso, installed on same host, upgraded to to 4.3.3.1 node and joined cluster. The node installation has no errors and can migrate to my other hosts. All networks are in sync. The migration hangs. Restarting VDSMD clears the hung migration. 11. None of the other hosts can migrate VMs to the new node. Here are excerpts from 3.2 node on 3.3 engine log file.

Hi Michael, I know how you feel abiut VDO. I wass in the same boat until I starrted using systemd's mount units.Since then I do not have any issues. For now try the following: Boot 1 host via rescue dvd , chroot into the system and install the vdo and kvdo packages (maybe reinstall is more correct) . Once then, try to run the vdo service (still in chroot) and try to make it work. Then, just rebuild the initramfs (dracut -f -k kernel-version) and reboot. Check if your VDO, bricks and Gluster are operational again. If yes, do the other nodes. Once done - run 'gluster volume heal my-volume full' (replace my-volume with actual name). This will force gluster to sync all bricks. P.S.: Now, I'm using gluster snapshot for recovery between engine upgrades (HostedEngine is stopped while makking the snapahot).

Issues post-upgrade from 4.2.8 to 4.3.2
by Vrgotic, Marko 21 Apr '19

21 Apr '19

Dear oVirt team, We have 3 Hosts HA Cluster with SHE engine. Storage is NetApp. Recently we have executed an upgrade from 4.2.8 to 4.3.2. Since then we are seeing strange behavior when trying to put Hosts to Maintenance or manually Migrate VMs between Hosts. The most repeated WARN/ERROR I am observing is following: The UI is constantly throwing an exception when trying to put HA host to maintenance or increase the SPM level. The repeated log line from engine.log I see, with regards or failing to migrate all hosts is: 2019-04-18 13:05:30,760Z WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.MigrateVmCommand] (EE-ManagedThreadFactory-engineScheduled-Thread-83) [63d33dd1] Validation of action 'MigrateVm' failed for user SYSTEM.

VM Snapshots not erasable and not bootable
by Jonathan Baecker 21 Apr '19

21 Apr '19

Hello, I make automatically backups of my VMs and last night there was making some new one. But somehow ovirt could not delete the snapshots anymore, in the log it show that it tried the hole day to delete them but they had to wait until the merge command was done. In the evening the host was totally crashed and started again. Now I can not delete the snapshots manually and I can also not start the VMs anymore. In the web interface I get the message: VM timetrack is down with error. Exit message: Bad volume specification {'address': {'bus': '0', 'controller': '0', 'type': 'drive', 'target': '0', 'unit': '0'}, 'serial': 'fd3b80fd-49ad-44ac-9efd-1328300582cd', 'index': 0, 'iface': 'scsi', 'apparentsize': '1572864', 'specParams': {}, 'cache': 'none', 'imageID': 'fd3b80fd-49ad-44ac-9efd-1328300582cd', 'truesize': '229888', 'type': 'disk', 'domainID': '9c3f06cf-7475-448e-819b-f4f52fa7d782', 'reqsize': '0', 'format': 'cow', 'poolID': '59ef3a18-002f-02d1-0220-000000000124', 'device': 'disk', 'path': '/rhev/data-center/59ef3a18-002f-02d1-0220-000000000124/9c3f06cf-7475-448e-819b-f4f52fa7d782/images/fd3b80fd-49ad-44ac-9efd-1328300582cd/47c0f42e-8bda-4e3f-8337-870899238788', 'propagateErrors': 'off', 'name': 'sda', 'bootOrder': '1', 'volumeID': '47c0f42e-8bda-4e3f-8337-870899238788', 'diskType': 'file', 'alias': 'ua-fd3b80fd-49ad-44ac-9efd-1328300582cd', 'discard': False}.

Re: Ovirt gluster arbiter within hosted VM

With GlusterD2 , you can use thin arbiter - which can be deployed in the cloud. Do not try to setup regular arbiter far away from the data bicks or yoir performance will be awful.

As long as the VM is not hosted by those 2 hyperconverged nodes - there should be no problem. Another option is a small machine with a single SSD. I'm using Lenovo Tiny M-series as an arbiter.

Hello Everyone, I did some fio performance tests on a particular vm and I have noticed things that I do not understand regarding how data is placed along the bricks. I am sure this is a lack of knowledge, but I would really appreciate any help in understanding this, I did a bit of research on the internet, but just could't find something relevant. I have one replica 3 distributed-replicated arbitrated volume, across 18 bricks ( 9 nodes, 2 jbods per node ). The volume was created as: node1 - brick1, node-2, brick1,.....node9-brick1, node1 - brick2, node-2, brick2,.....node9-brick2 As far as i've understood, under the hood there are sets of 3 times replicated data ( subvolumes ) which are assigned to the first 3 bricks, next set of replicated data to the next set of 3 bricks, and so on.. Now, I have this testing vm runign one node one. When I've started the fio test, i've noticed incresed gluster traffic from node 1 to node2,4 and 5 So I assumed that the vm disk is data resides on a subvolume allocated to bricks from these hosts. Then I have migrated the vm on node 2, and did the same test. Now the increased treffic is generated from node2 to node1, 4, and 5.. What I do not understand is: - why gluster client ( ovirt host ) is sending data to 3 bricks if the volume is arbitrated - shouldn't it send only to 2 of them ? - why are there 4 brick implicated in this subvolume - what would it be the fault tolerance level in this setup ,ie: how many hosts can I take down and still having the volume serving IO requests; can they be random ? I am sorry for my lack of knowledge, I am just trying to understand what is happening so I can deploy a decent proper setup of an hci environment. Thank you, Leo -- Best regards, Leo David

Ovirt gluster arbiter within hosted VM
by Alex K 19 Apr '19

19 Apr '19

Hi all, I have a two node hyper-converged setup which are causing me split-brains when network issues are encountered. Since I cannot add a third hardware node, I was thinking to add a dedicated guest VM hosted in same hyper-converged cluster which would do the arbiter for the volumes. What do you think about this setup in regards to stability and performance? I am running ovirt 4.2. Thanx, Alex

Ovirt-engine self hostd
by Dennis Perfors 19 Apr '19

19 Apr '19

Hi, We have build Ovirt-engine self hosted. We have created 2 vlans 1 services and 1 student. This works good. Services vlan 192.168.60.0/24 gateway ip 192.168.60.1 on this card Student vlan 192.168.10.0/24 gateway ip 192.168.10.1 on this network card Everything seems to be oke, but the probem is on the vlan. On the node 192.168.60.3, there is no internet connection when we do yum update -y But there is no internet connection on the host. I cant do yum update -y or do anything else.

hello I made a rebranding of my ovirt 4.3.2, but something went wrong and I saved it from the original incorrectly without realizing it. Please I need the original "ovirt.brand" and "ovirt" directories when ovirt 4.3.2 is installed. Where can I get them to be able to restore them? Greetings

Re: Expand existing gluster storage in ovirt 4.2/4.3
by Strahil 18 Apr '19

Recently , it was discussed in the mailing lists and dev mentioned that distributed replicated volumes are not officially supported, but some users use them. Even if not supported, it still should work without issues.If you think not to go this way, you can create a new 3 node cluster which will be fully suppported. Otherwise, if you go towards replicated distributed volumes , you just need to provide another set of 3 bricks and once added you can rebalance in order to distribute the files accross the sets. Here is an old thread that describes it for replica 2 volume types: https://lists.gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-users/2011-February/006599.html I guess I have confused you with my last e-mail, but that was not intentionable.

Ovirt Host Replacement/Rebuild
by Jim Kusznir 18 Apr '19

18 Apr '19

Hi all: I had an unplanned power outage (generator failed to start, power failure lasted 3 min longer than UPS batteries). One node didn't survive the unplanned power outage. By that, I mean it kernel panic's on boot, and I haven't been able to capture the KP or the first part of it (just the end), and so I don't truely know what the root cause is. I have validated the hardware is just fine, so its got to be an OS corruption. Based on this, I was thinking that perhaps the easiest way to recover would simply be to delete the host from the cluster, reformat and reinstall this host, and then add it back to the cluster as a new host. Is this in fact a good idea? Are there any references to how to do this (the detailed steps so I don't mess it up)? My cluster is (was) a 3 node hyperconverged cluster with gluster used for the management node. I also have a gluster share for VMs, but I use an NFS share from a NAS for that (which I will ask about in another post). Thanks for the help! --Jim

oVirt and NetApp NFS storage
by klaasdemter＠gmail.com 18 Apr '19

18 Apr '19

Hi, I got a question regarding oVirt and the support of NetApp NFS storage. We have a MetroCluster for our virtual machine disks but a HA-Failover of that (active IP gets assigned to another node) seems to produce outages too long for sanlock to handle - that affects all VMs that have storage leases. NetApp says a "worst case" takeover time is 120 seconds. That would mean sanlock has already killed all VMs. Is anyone familiar with how we could setup oVirt to allow such storage outages? Do I need to use another type of storage for my oVirt VMs because that NFS implementation is unsuitable for oVirt? Greetings Klaas

Changing from thin provisioned to preallocated?
by Wesley Stewart 18 Apr '19

18 Apr '19

I am currently running a ZFS server (Running RaidZ2) and I have been experimenting with NFS and shares to host my guests. I am currently running oVirt 4.2.8 and using a RaidZ2 NFS mount for the guests. ZFS definitely is definitely pretty awful (At least in my experience so far) for hosting VMs. I believe this is due to the synchronous writes being performed. However, I think running an iSCSI target with Synchronization disabled over a 10Gb connection might do the trick. (I have a couple of mirroed SSD drives for performance if I need it, but the RaidZ2 crawls for disk speed). When I tried to migrate a thin provisioned guest to iSCSI, I keep getting an "Out of disk space error" which I am pretty sure is due to the block style storage on the iSCSI target. Is there a way to switch from Thin to Preallocated? Or is my best bet to try and take a snapshot and clone this into a pre-allocated disk?
