Re: [ovirt-users] How to remove a MAC Pool from a cluster?
by Michael Burman 19 Oct '17

19 Oct '17

Hello James, The way to do it is to assign a new MAC pool range to this cluster and then to remove it. This can be done via - Administration > Configure > MAC addresses pool - There you can create/edit and remove MAC pool range entities. So create another desired MAC pool range, assign it to the cluster(via edit cluster) and remove the desired MAC pool range from the system.

Cannot uplaod ot ISO domain
by Alex K 18 Oct '17

18 Oct '17

Hi all, I have setup a self hosted setup with 3 servers with several volumes in replica 3. These gluster volumes are set on a separate network (on separate NICs on same servers), dedicated for gluster traffic. The engine does not have any NIC in this network. The ISO storage domain is also on top one of these gluster volumes. Hope this makes sense. When I try to upload an ISO file from engine, I get the following error: engine-iso-uploader -i ISO upload /usr/share/ovirt-guest-tools-iso/oVirt-toolsSetup_4.1-3.fc24.iso Please provide the REST API password for the admin@internal oVirt Engine user (CTRL+D to abort): Uploading, please wait... ERROR: mount.nfs: No route to host Seems that the engine is trying to mount the volume and gives a no route to host. What is the correct procedure to add an ISO domain? Can't ISO domain be on a separate dedicated network which is reachable from each host? Thanx, Alex

Install oVirt in CentOS 7 Node
by FERNANDO FREDIANI 18 Oct '17

18 Oct '17

Hi. I have a host which I installed a Minimal CentOS 7 and turned into a oVirt Node therefore it didn't come with Cockpit installed and configured as it does in the oVirt-Node-NG. Comparing both types of Hosts I have the following packages below in each scenario. The only package missing between both is "cockpit-ovirt-dashboard". However I have already tried to install it and it was unable to show up the Virtual Machines correctly and control them. Is any specific or custom configuration needed in the cockpit config files to make it work properly ? - oVirt-Node-NG host: cockpit-ws-130-1.el7.centos.x86_64 cockpit-docker-130-1.el7.centos.x86_64 cockpit-ovirt-dashboard-0.10.7-0.0.6.el7.centos.noarch cockpit-system-130-1.el7.centos.noarch cockpit-networkmanager-130-1.el7.centos.noarch cockpit-storaged-130-1.el7.centos.noarch cockpit-130-1.el7.centos.x86_64 cockpit-bridge-130-1.el7.centos.x86_64 cockpit-dashboard-130-1.el7.centos.x86_64 - CentOS 7 Minimal install cockpit-system-141-3.el7.centos.noarch cockpit-ws-141-3.el7.centos.x86_64 cockpit-docker-141-3.el7.centos.x86_64 cockpit-dashboard-141-3.el7.centos.x86_64 cockpit-141-3.el7.centos.x86_64 cockpit-bridge-141-3.el7.centos.x86_64 cockpit-storaged-141-3.el7.centos.noarch cockpit-networkmanager-141-3.el7.centos.noarch Thanks Fernando

move disk and lv not removed
by Gianluca Cecchi 18 Oct '17

18 Oct '17

Hello, on an FC based environment I have a powered off VM Select VM --> disks subtab --> select one disk of 20Gb move at the end of the move apparently all went ok, but right after the "finished moving.." event I also get this error event VDSM host1 command HSMGetAllTasksStatusesVDS failed: Cannot remove Logical Volume: (['Cannot remove Logical Volume: (u\'c5d360f5-cd90-4b3e-bdef-924649bfbc5f\', "[\'2255c544-165b-4126-86ee-70e6d1edef9a\']")'],) After that I also do the same for another disk of the same VM with size 80Gb and it completes ok, without the same event error. So the problem doesn't occur always It seem to me that the old disk (aka old lv) has remained as a left over. And in fact the source storage domain doesn't show 20Gb of more free space... >From the SPM host # lvs | egrep "VG|2255c544-165b-4126-86ee-70e6d1edef9a" LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin Data% Meta% Move Log Cpy%Sync Convert 2255c544-165b-4126-86ee-70e6d1edef9a 072feb00-bc16-416d-9a23-39bde9cd3a94 -wi------- 20.00g 2255c544-165b-4126-86ee-70e6d1edef9a c5d360f5-cd90-4b3e-bdef-924649bfbc5f -wi-ao---- 20.00g # So it seems I have both the old LV on the original VG (2255c544-165b-4126-86ee-70e6d1edef9a) and the LV on the VG related to the target storage domain Is there any bug opened for this? How can I clean situation? Thanks, Gianluca

User cannot create VMs having sufficient permissions to do so
by nicolas＠devels.es 18 Oct '17

18 Oct '17

Hi, We're running ovirt-4.1.6.2-1. We have a user that logs into the user portal and tries to create a VM, but a message claiming that "There is no Cluster on which you can create a VM. Please check Data Center status and Cluster permissions." shows up. However, this user has permissions on the cluster (both VmCreator and DiskProfileUser, and also has a Quota created on the Cluster which allows him to create VMs). When clicking on the 'New VM' button, all we see in the engine.log is: 2017-10-18 10:59:31,825+01 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.GetAllLabelsQuery] (default task-103) [c23549c6-37a4-48d7-923d-6618e027cdca] Query execution failed due to insufficient permissions. This user has pretty much the same permissions as thousands of users who can create VMs, but this one can't. How can we debug what's happening and how to solve it? Thanks.

Unresponsive instance

18 Oct '17

Dear Team, After a power failure and restart, one of my instances would not display properly from the Ovirt User Portal. This error would scroll down the screen repeatly to infinitum. XFS (dm-0): Metadata CRC error detected at xfs_inobt_read_verify+0x79/0xb0 [xfs], xfs_inobt block 0x1df188 XFS (dm-0): Unmount and run xfs_repair XFS (dm-0): First 64 bytes of corrupted metadata buffer: (Hex Dump) I detached the boot disk and attached to another instance and ran xfs_repair on it, to no avail. The instance boots fine and I am able to access via XRDP. When I try to access via spice or VNC I get the error. Suggestions? Thanks

So I tried cobbler instead and I had it working in just a couple of hours! I'm further along today than a week of foreman's constant problems. Hooray! Here's where I am at now, if I manually configure a VM in Ovirt I can provision it from Cobbler. Great! What I would like to do is to have an easy way from Ovirt say "Grab this cobbler profile and build me a new VM with this template". In my searches on line, I haven't found anything like that. It seems the closest I'm going to get is to use Koan. However, I've not found great information for using Koan with Ovirt. My attempts so far of installing Koan on the Ovirt Management host and trying to get it to provision have all resulted in Koan trying to build a KVM _on_ the management host; not in Ovirt. Does anyone have any good documentation for setting up Cobbler integration into Ovirt? Or at least getting Koan to work with the two?

GlusterFS performance questions
by Jayme 16 Oct '17

16 Oct '17

I am currently in the process of researching converting an existing SMB infra to virtual. Ovirt/RHEV is a strong contender and checks off a lot of boxes on our list. GlusterFS is appealing but I am finding it very difficult to find any answers or stats/numbers regarding how well it can perform as backend storage for VMs, especially VMs with medium to high workloads, and possibly some or many in a dev environment where many small files are interacted with very frequently. >From my research on GlusterFS in general some people tend to say that it is not the best performer and it's not the best choice for handling small files. How true is this? I understand that there are many variables such as hardware, drives, proper configuration, internal network etc. but what I'm trying to avoid here is going through the whole process of spendng a lot of money building out an ovirt gluster with a proper SSD glusterFS configuration w/ 10gbe internal network only to find out some day down the road that it cannot meet our I/O needs. Can anyone comment on how I can best determine the performance level to expect from a typical ovrt w/ glusterfs replica 3 arbiter 1 configuration. Or perhaps any use cases with people/companies running a similar setup in production with high VM workloads? Right now I'm leaning toward using a SAN due to the simplicity and predictable performance. Although this will definitely cost a lot more money for something that glusterFS *may* be able to handle. Thanks! James

Our mentors can help you with tasks such as reviewing your abstract, reviewing your presentation outline or slides, or practicing your talk with you. You may apply to the mentoring program as a newcomer speaker if you: Never presented before or Presented only lightning talks or Presented full-length talks at small meetups (<50 ppl) Submission Guidelines Mentored presentations will have 25-minute slots, where 20 minutes will include the presentation and 5 minutes will be reserved for questions. The number of newcomer session slots is limited, so we will probably not be able to accept all applications. You must submit your talk and abstract to apply for the mentoring program, our mentors are volunteering their time and will happily provide feedback but won't write your presentation for you! If you are experiencing problems with Pentabarf, the proposal submission interface, or have other questions, you can email our devroom mailing list[2] and we will try to help you. How to Apply In addition to agreeing to video recording and confirming that you can attend FOSDEM in case your session is accepted, please write "speaker mentoring program application" in the "Submission notes" field, and list any prior speaking experience or other relevant information for your application. Call for Mentors Interested in mentoring newcomer speakers? We'd love to have your help! Please email iaas-virt-devroom at lists.fosdem.org with a short speaker biography and any specific fields of expertise (for example, KVM, OpenStack, storage, etc.) so that we can match you with a newcomer speaker from a similar field. Estimated time investment can be as low as a 5-10 hours in total, usually distributed weekly or bi-weekly. Never mentored a newcomer speaker but interested to try? As the mentoring program coordinator, email Brian Proffitt[3] and he will be happy to answer your questions! Code of Conduct Following the release of the updated code of conduct for FOSDEM, we'd like to remind all speakers and attendees that all of the presentations and discussions in our devroom are held under the guidelines set in the CoC and we expect attendees, speakers, and volunteers to follow the CoC at all times. If you submit a proposal and it is accepted, you will be required to confirm that you accept the FOSDEM CoC. If you have any questions about the CoC or wish to have one of the devroom organizers review your presentation slides or any other content for CoC compliance, please email us and we will do our best to assist you. Call for Volunteers We are also looking for volunteers to help run the devroom. We need assistance watching time for the speakers, and helping with video for the devroom. Please contact me, Brian Proffitt, for more information. Questions? If you have any questions about this devroom, please send your questions to our devroom mailing list. You can also subscribe to the list to receive updates about important dates, session announcements, and to connect with other attendees. See you all at FOSDEM!

Hi, I tried to add new interface to hosted engine via GUI. It got added but network was not accessible from hosted engine (ping was failing) So I got old mail thread for adding "Multiple Nic on hosted engine" I tired to follow but not found this file for ovirt 4.1 /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/vm.conf http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2014-November/029236.html Is it possible to add new nic in ovirt 4.1? or Is there any different procedure for ovirt 4.1 ? if yes, please let me know. Thanks, ~Rohit

Killing Zombie or hungTasks

This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------473ADC7B37C7DAFBBF783860 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, We attempted to import a VM from export domain and that failed for some reason. However the import task or the activity never ended in spite of throwing an error. Even after 4 full days, on the VM an Hour glass was shown and it kept reporting, hung task. Finally we had to run engine-update, that removed Zombie tasks and VM started showing as DOWN and we could remove the VM. I believe, this is not the right process to remove the zombie tasks or hung tasks. Is there a better method without running "engine-update"?

4.1 to 4.2 upgrade
by Charles Kozler 15 Oct '17

15 Oct '17

hello, What would be the process to go from current 4.1 to 4.2-pre? I have been demoing 4.2 on my own lab environment and the WebUI, for my user base, is entirely more intuitive than the previous My 4.1 is relatively new so there isnt much config done to it, that said, wondering what it would take to update ovirt HE w/ 3 nodes + GlusterFS (not managed via ovirt) to 4.2-pre and what it would like like to move back from a -pre channel to mainline Alternatively, I could wait for 4.2 to go main, do you have an estimated date for that? Thanks!

Configuring ilo4 on hp blade gen 9
by Gianluca Cecchi 15 Oct '17

15 Oct '17

Hello, on 4.1.6 I'm configuring fencing on HP blades Gen9. It seems I'm able to use ilo_ssh as agent and that I have only to set 22 as the port and ssh=1 in options Question: why ssh=1??? the agent is named ilo_ssh.... shouldn't be obvious??? The same form command line I MUST set -x even if I use fence_ilo_ssh command Nevertheless, this way I get successful test Sometimes I don't get the same result if I run from shell eg: fence_ilo_ssh -a ilo_ip -l fenceuser -S /usr/local/bin/my_fence_script.sh -x -o status I get sometimes: Unable to connect/login to fencing device I think it could be some sort of delay timeout. In fence_ilo_ssh I see these kinds of timeouts in help --power-timeout=[seconds] Test X seconds for status change after ON/OFF --shell-timeout=[seconds] Wait X seconds for cmd prompt after issuing command --login-timeout=[seconds] Wait X seconds for cmd prompt after login --power-wait=[seconds] Wait X seconds after issuing ON/OFF --delay=[seconds] Wait X seconds before fencing is started How do they map with gui settings options in case I would use some of them? Also, how do I map the command line option -4, --inet4-only Perhaps inet4_only=1 ? I see that ssh=1,inet4_only=1 works but also ssh=1,inet4_only=1,foo=1 works So it is not a reliable test to verify syntax... All in all do you think it is the best agent for ilo4 based blades? I have made some test with fence_ilo4 but unable to get success... what should I enable on ilo web administration page in this case, if you think the agent would be better for any reason? Thanks, Gianluca

Hi everyone, I'll be restarting several production systems today to apply security updates. The following services may be unreachable for some period of time: - resources.ovirt.org - software repositories - jenkins.ovirt.org - CI master No new builds will be started during this period. I will announce you once the maintenance is complete. -- Regards, Evgheni Dereveanchin

How to change network card configuration under bridge on host?
by Derek Atkins 13 Oct '17

13 Oct '17

Hi, I've got a single host running CentOS 7.3 + Ovirt 4.0.6 with hosted engine. I'm having network issues (see previous email thread) and the next thing I'm going to try is to add a new network card and use that instead of the onboard ethernet on the mobo. However it looks like /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* get replaced every time the host restarts. Right now it's configured with: eno1, eno2 -> bond0 -> ovirtmgmt I accomplished this by setting up the bond by hand on the host before I installed the hosted engine, but then ovirt "took control" of the configuration. I want to change this to replace eno1 and eno2 with the two new devices when I add the new card tomorrow. What's the best way to do this? I suppose I can just add the new devices as bond0 slaves pretty easily by creating new ifcfg-xxx files for the new devices (I'm assuming they will be eno3 and eno4) that looks similar to the eno1 and eno2 files. However I'd like to also remove eno1 and eno2 from bond0. Yet I suspect if I change ifcfg-eno1 and ifcfg-eno2 by hand, they will just get replaced at the next reboot by ovirt. How do I convince ovirt to stop overwriting those files? Or how do I tell ovirt about the new configuration?
