change from LDAP to AD authentication
by p.staniforth＠leedsbeckett.ac.uk 09 Jul '18

09 Jul '18

Hello, as part of our policy I have to change from LDAP to Active Directory for authentication in our oVirt system. I have managed to configure a test system that allows users to login using the CN (sAMAccountName) as before. The users in the system using the AD namespace are using their UPN for their user name. Do we have to copy permissions from all the old accounts to their new accounts or is there a way to rename them to the UPN retaining there old permissions? Thanks, Paul S.

Cannot import a qcow2 image
by etienne.charlier＠reduspaceservices.eu 09 Jul '18

09 Jul '18

Hello, I' m trying without success to import a qcow2 file into ovirt. I tried on a ISCSI datadomain and an nfs datadomain. I struggled quite a lot to have the "test connection" succed ( I write a small shell script to "deploy" letsencryt certificates into ovirt engine) Doc is not clear on the fact that certificates for imageio-proxy are different than for main engine… Now, the upload fails with Transfer was stopped by system. Reason: failed to add image ticket to ovirt-imageio-proxy. Image gets stuck in "transfer paused by system" Any idea ? ovrit is up to date: 4.2.4 on both engine and hosts.

OVN and MTU of vnics based on it clarification
by Gianluca Cecchi 09 Jul '18

09 Jul '18

Hello, I'm testing a virtual rhcs cluster based on 4 nodes that are CentOS 7.4 VMs. So the stack is based on Corosync/Pacemaker I have two oVirt hosts and so my plan is to put two VMs on first host and two VMs on the second host, to simulate a two sites config and site loss, before going to physical production config. Incidentally the two hypervisor hosts are indeed placed into different physical datacenters. So far so good. I decided to use OVN for the intracluster dedicated network configured for corosync (each VM has two vnics, one on production lan and one for intracluster). I detected that the cluster worked and formed (also only two nodes) only if the VMs run on the same host, while it seems they are not able to communicate when on different hosts. Ping is ok and an attempt of ssh session between them on intracluster lan, but cluster doesn't come up So after digging in past mailing list mails I found this recent one: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/RMS7XFOZ67O3ER… where the solution was to set 1400 for the MTU of the interfaces on OVN network. It seems it resolves the problem also in my scenario: - I live migrated two VMs on the second host and rhcs clusterware didn't complain - I relocated a resource group composed by several LV/FS, VIP and application from VM running on host1 to VM running on host2 without problems. So the question is: can anyone confirm what are guidelines for settings vnics on OVN? Is there already a document in place about MTU settings for OVN based vnics? Other particular settings or limitations if I want to configure a vnic on OVN? Thanks, Gianluca

fence_rhevm and ovirt 4.2
by Gianluca Cecchi 08 Jul '18

08 Jul '18

Hello, I'm configuring a virtual rhcs cluster and would like to use fence_rhevm agent for stonith. As VMs composing the 4-nodes cluster I'm using CentOS 7.4 os with fence-agents-rhevm-4.0.11-66.el7_4.4.x86_64; I see that in 7.5 the agent is fence-agents-rhevm-4.0.11-86.el7_5.2.x86_64 but with no modification for the /usr/sbin/fence_rhevm python script apart the BUILD_DATE line. Some questions: - it seems it is still in API v3 even if deprecated; any particular reason? Possible to update to V4? Can I create a RFE bugzilla? This is in fact what I get in engine events registering connection: Client from address "10.4.4.68" is using version 3 of the API, which has been deprecated since version 4.0 of the engine, and will no longer be supported starting with version 4.3. Make sure to update that client to use a supported versions of the API and the SDKs, before upgrading to version 4.3 of the engine. 7/7/184:56:11 PM User fenceuser@internal-authz connecting from '10.4.4.68' using session 'OVgdzMofRFDS4ZKSdL83mRyGUFEdc+++onJHzGiAfpYuS07xa/EbBqFEPtztpwEeRzCn9mBOTGXE69rBbHlhXQ==' logged in. 7/7/184:56:11 PM - UserRole ok Back in April 2017 for version 4.1.1 I had problems and it seems I had to set super user privileges for the "fencing user" See thread here https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/FS5YFU5ZXIYDC… Now instead I only set UserRole for the defined "fenceuser" on the virtual cluster VMS and it works ok - for a VM with permissions already setup: [root@cl1 ~]# fence_rhevm -a 10.4.192.49 -l "fenceuser@internal" -S /usr/local/bin/pwd_ovmgr01.sh -z --ssl-insecure -o status --shell-timeout=20 --power-wait=10 -n cl1 Status: ON - for a VM still without permissions [root@cl1 ~]# fence_rhevm -a 10.4.192.49 -l "fenceuser@internal" -S /usr/local/bin/pwd_ovmgr01.sh -z --ssl-insecure -o status --shell-timeout=20 --power-wait=10 -n cl2 Failed: Unable to obtain correct plug status or plug is not available - for a VM with permissions already setup: I'm able to make power off / power on of the VM Thanks, Gianluca

by Krzysztof Wajda 08 Jul '18

08 Jul '18

Hi, can anyone explain differences between Ovirt and RHEV in version 4.1 ? I know that RHEV has diffrent product life-cycle, and there are some diffrences in installation process. Do you know if there are any additional featuers in Ovirt or RHEV ? Do you know any oifficial statements from RH about differences ? From my experience there is not too much diffrences, but I need to prepere such a comaprison for bussines so I would like to get an info from relaiable source. Chris

Ovirt/ RHV Disaster Recovery Designing
by samee095＠gmail.com 07 Jul '18

07 Jul '18

Hi I've looking for some ideas about designing disaster recovery planning with ovirt 4.2. Since 4.2 we have options to have intergration with disaster recovery site also. I went through some videos at internet and want to share if those are correct or not. Thus you can help me regarding what other things I should be having ideas during planning and designing more about this. 1. We've to keep both sites on and already created datacenter, cluster and one site with storage domain attached and other site with no storage domain. 2. We've to keep latency of 10ms at maximum between both sites. 3. Have to configure virtual machines with affinity group. 4. The VM's which are configured as high-available vm, will be migrated first. 5. There's an Ansible script while have to run to fail over and fail back. Now, please could you help me out regarding this. 1. Where can I find this ansible script? Is this https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-ansible-disaster-recovery.git? 2. Can this script run at rhv also ? or just for ovirt? Or what other changes I have to make for rhv to have this functionalities? 3. How ovirt/rhv works with the OVN compared to NSX? Is there's any challenges ? 4. Can you share me some high and low level diagram related to rhv disaster planning? 5. How the storage migrates on backend ? During the script ? 6. Where do I run this script? During fail over at primary site and during fail back at secondary site? 7. Basically since only the storage migrates and all other components are on already so basically backend it's only dealing with storage migration according to defined policies ? Please could you help me out with some designing and ideas what're the best architecture during planning on disaster recovery at RHV. Thank you.

Is your engine functioning at all? I'm not sure if you're saying your entire engine doesn't work, or just host deploy doesn't work. What version of ovirt engine is this?

ovirt, postfix and sendmail
by Fabrice Bacchella 06 Jul '18

06 Jul '18

ovirt in version 4.2 choose to incorporate postfix as a mandatory MTA: yum erase postfix ... Removing: postfix x86_64 2:2.10.1-6.el7 @base 12 M Removing for dependencies: cockpit-ovirt-dashboard noarch 0.11.28-1.el7 @ovirt-4.2 15 M ovirt-host x86_64 4.2.3-1.el7 @ovirt-4.2 11 k ovirt-hosted-engine-setup noarch 2.2.22.1-1.el7 @ovirt-4.2 2.2 M Is there a way to change that ? It's not about postfix being inferior or superior to other solutions. It's that it didn't ask any thing, didn't check if one was already installed. It's just installed. For example: rpm -q --provides postfix MTA config(postfix) = 2:2.10.1-6.el7 postfix = 2:2.10.1-6.el7 postfix(x86-64) = 2:2.10.1-6.el7 server(smtp) smtpd smtpdaemon rpm -q --provides sendmail MTA config(sendmail) = 8.14.7-5.el7 sendmail = 8.14.7-5.el7 sendmail(x86-64) = 8.14.7-5.el7 server(smtp) smtpdaemon There is a lot of other dependencies to declare other than postfix, MTA would have been better.

Ovirt Networking Setup Questions
by Dave Mintz 06 Jul '18

06 Jul '18

Hello, I am trying to understand, by reading all available docs, how to correctly set up networking. What I have: 6 nodes, 1 engine - all have 3 nics. What I want: To separate traffic into three zones - ovirtmgmt, prod (for vm and admin web interface, data (for db access). So, I have three subnets - 10.10.10.0, 10.10.20.0, and 10.10.30.0 - with matching VLANs 10, 20, 30 I am trying to understand how bonding and bridging work. Should I bond all three nics together? The instructions here: https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/how-to/networking/bonding-vlan-bridge/ <https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/how-to/networking/bonding-vlan-bridge/> seem to do that and then create two bridges br0 and ovirtmgmt, which they then assign ip addresses to. I can do that, but shouldn’t I be configuring all of the networking at the logical network level? So, in that case, should I just create one bond/bridge and then do all of the networking at the logical level? Sorry if this is newbie stuff. Thanks Dave

Snapshots don't seem to work with Windows VMs
by jmp242＠cornell.edu 06 Jul '18

06 Jul '18

I've been testing with Windows 10 1607 LTSB and created several snapshots. I can preview each one, but they all boot with the same configuration and software installed and files as the "active VM" - so I cannot see at all how to roll back changes. Is this a known issue? I believe I'm following the documentation properly, but I can't see that the snapshots are doing anything. I'm testing on Scientific Linux 7.4 using oVirt 4.2.2.6-1.el7.centos.

oVirt LLDP Labeler
by Ales Musil 06 Jul '18

06 Jul '18

Hello, I would like to announce that oVirt LLDP Labeler is officially available. The Labeler is service that runs along with engine and is capable of labeling host network interfaces according to their reported VLANs via LLDP. The attached labels are named "lldp_vlan_${VLAN}", where ${VLAN} is ID of the corresponding VLAN. This can make work of an administrator easier, because any network with the same label, will be automatically attached to the corresponding host interface. The Labeler is currently tested only with Juniper switches which are capable of reporting all of their VLANs that are present on the interface. We would like to extend the Labeler with auto bonding feature. Those interfaces that are detected on the same switch would be automatically bonded. The Labeler source is available here: https://github.com/almusil/ovirt-lldp-labeler And the build: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/amusil/ovirt-lldp-labeler/ If you have any suggestions or problems please don't hesitate to report them on the GitHub page. -- ALES MUSIL Associate software engineer - rhv network Red Hat EMEA <https://www.redhat.com/> amusil(a)redhat.com IM: amusil <https://red.ht/sig>

ovirt-node: freshly installed node: network interfaces not visible
by etienne.charlier＠reduspaceservices.eu 06 Jul '18

06 Jul '18

Hello, I'm deploying a test cluster to get used to the ovirt product. My ovirt ( 4.2.2) engine is deployed in a vmware virtual machine. I'm busy deploying 5 hosts using the ovirt-node iso. I have issue with the additional physical network interface ( used for vm trafic and iSCSI) In ovirt manager I can't see the physical network interfaces. It's thus not possible to assign logical network to physical interfaces and my hosts stays in "non operational" status. How should I configure the additional interfaces in the ovirt-node installer to have them recognized ? I somehow managed to configure one host and I can see a comment line in /etc/sysconfig/network-script/ifcfg-... saying vdsm has acquired the interface.... No Such line in the ifcfg-* file in non operational hosts.... Any idea ? Etienne

Upgrading Hosted Engine version not supported by upgrade flow
by John Nguyen 05 Jul '18

05 Jul '18

Hello, While trying to upgrade a hosted engine to most recent 4.2.4 version, I'm receiving this error "Cluster INT-cluster is at a version 4.2 which is not supported by this upgrade flow. Please fix it before upgrading." I am unable to find a method of fixing the version. The software version on this engine is at 4.2.0.2-1el7.centos. And was installed from the ovirt-engine-appliance rpm. The host boxes are running Centos 7.4 I see this from ovirt-hosted-engine-setup log "DEDUG otopi.context._executeMethod:135 condition False INFO otopi.context.runSequence:735 Stage: Termination" Any guidance would be greatly appreciated, Thanks John

Hello, I use cloud-init to provision new vm and I'd like the hostname field to be a variable so as the name disk to be based on. i.e: my vm name is toto and the disk alias is toto_Disk1 Is there a way to easlily do such a thing?

VM - Disks - Table too small
by Maton, Brett 05 Jul '18

05 Jul '18

The table which displays disk info is too small when moving disks between storage domains, probably because the progress bar is added below the 'locked' status but the table doesn't resize to accommodate the taller rows. Tried in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Internet Explorer & Safari

oVirt 4.2 Self-hosted engine deployment fails at the end - "failed liveliness check"
by Aleksander Maricq 04 Jul '18

04 Jul '18

I successfully deployed an oVirt 4.2 self-hosted engine setup just over 6 months ago, and recently tried to re-install to modify hostnames on the engine and hypervisor. After I cleaned up and re-ran hosted-engine --deploy my install failed right at the end (TASK [Wait for the engine to come up on the target VM]) with the following error: ERROR otopi.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.ansible_utils ansible_utils._process_output:98 fatal and the following engine vm status: Engine status: {"reason": "failed liveliness check", "health": "bad", "vm": "up", "detail": "Up"} I opted to do a clean re-install of CentOS 7.5 and try again, but I keep running into the same error (see the attached logs). Some details that may or may not be helpful: - I'm reusing old mount points without formatting such as /home and my previous NFS-exported storage domain LVMs. The root partition, swap, /boot, and the engine destination LVMs were all re-formatted during the CentOS 7.5 install or prior to attempted oVirt install. - I'm reusing the MAC address from the previous attempt (so that it picks up the static entry I put on my router). - I currently only have entries in /etc/hosts to map FQDNs to IPs, but the install fails the same way whether or not I tell the process to populate the engine VM's hosts file. - Prior to my re-install of CentOS 7.5 I tried, and was able, to log into the engine appliance. I saw the hosted engine VM was listed as "down", and there was some temporary VM (leftover from the install process?) that I couldn't do anything to. Thanks in advance for your help!

remote-viewer Spice Problem on MacOS
by hpeyerl＠plusline.net 04 Jul '18

04 Jul '18

Hi all, we are currently experiencing a weird problem with oVirt and the spice console on MacOS: Occasionally when our Mac Users are connecting to a Spice Console of any oVirt VM it opens the usual window but just displays the message: "Connected to graphic server". When a Linux user now connects to it and closes the connection the Mac user can also connect again normally. I have tried https://www.spice-space.org/osx-client.html and https://rizvir.com/articles/ovirt-mac-console/ with exactly the same behaviour. The Issue appears on several different MacOS Versions and we believe it started after our upgrade to oVirt 4.2. MacOS Version: 10.13.5 oVirt Version: 4.2.3.8-1.el7 Any help or suggestion is greatly appreciated. Best regards, Hendrik
