Current state of UI brick management when using dedicated interfaces for ovirtmgmt & gluster?
by Doug Ingham 13 Feb '17

13 Feb '17

Hey Guys, I currently use dedicated interfaces & hostnames to separate gluster traffic on my "hyperconverged" hosts. For example, the first node uses "v0" for its management interface & "s0" for its gluster interface. With this setup, I notice that all functions under the "Volumes" tab work, however I'm unable to import storage domains with "Use managed gluster", and hosts' bricks aren't listed under the "Hosts" tab. My engine log is also full of entries such as this... 2017-02-10 03:25:07,155-03 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.gluster.GlusterVolumesListReturn] (DefaultQuartzScheduler3) [78aef637] Could not add brick 's0:/gluster/data-novo/brick' to volume 'bded65c7-e79e-4bc9-9630-36a69ad2e684' - server uuid 'a9d062c6-7d01-404f-ab0c-3ed468e60c91' not found in cluster '00000002-0002-0002-0002-00000000017a' 2017-02-10 03:25:09,157-03 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.gluster.GlusterVolumesHealInfoReturn] (DefaultQuartzScheduler10) [6828f9a7] Could not fetch heal info for brick 's0:/gluster/data-novo/brick' - server uuid 'a9d062c6-7d01-404f-ab0c-3ed468e60c91' not found I'm wondering whether the different hostnames used to configure each of the interfaces is casuing the confusion? So...is there something wrong, or is this still an unsupported configuration? Cheers, -- Doug

Issue with Moving Disks
by Bryan Sockel 13 Feb '17

13 Feb '17

Hi, I attempted to move a few disks from a glusterFS to an ISCSI file system. I have number of errors during the process, and it looks like a few of the disk moves are hung. They are hung at various percentages. in the events, it says moving Disk X from A to B, validation completes but i copying volume returns with an error. Is there a way to kill the move process so i can have access back to the VM's? Thanks

4.1: warning low space and critical space action blocker not honoured?
by Gianluca Cecchi 12 Feb '17

12 Feb '17

Hello, I have a small export domain while doing a test. So I would like to temporarily lower down warning and critical to the minimum, so that I complete the test and then I re-enable default ones: Initial situation with "engine-config -g" CriticalSpaceActionBlocker: 5 version: general WarningLowSpaceIndicator: 10 version: general This is confirmed by what I see in RACTOREXP export storage domain general pane: Size: 49 GB Available: 38 GB Used: 11 GB Warning Low Space Indicator: 10% (4 GB) Critical Space Action Blocker: 5 GB I set both to 1 [root@ovmgr1 ~]# engine-config -s WarningLowSpaceIndicator=5 [root@ovmgr1 ~]# engine-config -s CriticalSpaceActionBlocker=1 Systemctl restart ovirt-engine [root@ovmgr1 ~]# engine-config -a|grep "Space[A,I]" CriticalSpaceActionBlocker: 1 version: general WarningLowSpaceIndicator: 1 version: general [root@ovmgr1 ~]# But the storage domain still shows the previous values in webadmin gui.

Hosted Engine migration problems
by Jim Kusznir 12 Feb '17

12 Feb '17

Hi again: I thought I had fixed the hosted engine migration that was preventing me from updating the host the engine was running on. Today it let me migrate it from ovirt1 to ovirt2, and perform needed updates on ovirt1. When I tried to migrate it back to ovirt1 after the updates, I got errors that it failed migration. I tried an auto-migrate, and it claimed that the other two nodes (including the node it was running on) do not meet minimum requrements, specifically that they are not HA nodes....But I did explicitly set them up as HA nodes. Here's the engine.log output from the command: 2017-02-11 06:12:03,078 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.scheduling.SchedulingManager] (default task-41) [252e1f97] Candidate host 'engine1' ('1e182fb9-8057-42ed-abd6-bc5bc343ccc6') was filtered out by 'VAR__FILTERTYPE__INTERNAL' filter 'HA' (correlation id: null) 2017-02-11 06:12:03,078 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.scheduling.SchedulingManager] (default task-41) [252e1f97] Candidate host 'engine3' ('bac8ace2-cf7e-48ea-9113-b82343cd87f7') was filtered out by 'VAR__FILTERTYPE__INTERNAL' filter 'HA' (correlation id: null) 2017-02-11 06:12:03,081 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.scheduling.SchedulingManager] (default task-41) [252e1f97] Candidate host 'engine2' ('76c075fc-1dfb-479d-98ef-57575ec11787') was filtered out by 'VAR__FILTERTYPE__INTERNAL' filter 'Migration' (correlation id: null) 2017-02-11 06:12:03,081 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.MigrateVmCommand] (default task-41) [252e1f97] Validation of action 'MigrateVm' failed for user admin@internal-authz.

Network issues

Gluster storage question
by Bartosiak-Jentys, Chris 11 Feb '17

11 Feb '17

Hello list, Just wanted to get your opinion on my ovirt home lab setup. While this is not a production setup I would like it to run relatively reliably so please tell me if the following storage configuration is likely to result in corruption or just bat s**t insane. I have a 3 node hosted engine setup, VM data store and engine data store are both replica 3 gluster volumes (one brick on each host). I do not want to run all 3 hosts 24/7 due to electricity costs, I only power up the larger hosts (2 Dell R710's) when I need additional resources for VM's. I read about using CTDB and floating/virtual IP's to allow the storage mount point to transition between available hosts but after some thought decided to go about this another, simpler, way: I created a common hostname for the storage mount points: gfs-data and gfs-engine On each host I edited /etc/hosts file to have these hostnames resolve to each hosts IP i.e. on host1 gfs-data & gfs-engine --> host1 IP on host2 gfs-data & gfs-engine --> host2 IP etc. In ovirt engine each storage domain is mounted as gfs-data:/data and gfs-engine:/engine My thinking is that this way no matter which host is up and acting as SPM it will be able to mount the storage as its only dependent on that host being up. I changed gluster options for server-quorum-ratio so that the volumes remain up even if quorum is not met, I know this is risky but its just a lab setup after all. So, any thoughts on the /etc/hosts method to ensure the storage mount point is always available? Is data corruption more or less inevitable with this setup? Am I insane ;) ? Thanks,

Trying oVirt 4.1
by Andy Michielsen 11 Feb '17

11 Feb '17

Hello all, I was trying to give the latest oVirt a go and install it on my KVM system before committing it on any hardware. The installation went fine. When logging on into the node https://<node>:9090 I wanted to install an hosted engine but I get this messages Failed to execute stage 'Environment setup': [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi' Hosted Engine deployment failed But I must admit I have not set up iscsi nor do I want to. Maybe local, nfs or glusterfs. What is the way to do this properly ? Kind regards.

Optimizations for VoIP VM
by Jim Kusznir 11 Feb '17

11 Feb '17

Hello: I set up a FreeSwitch-based VoIP server as a host on my cluster, and am having audio problems. I'm not 100% sure if its virtualization related or network related yet. But I would like to optimize my VM for VoIP (or rather, tell Ovirt all the "right settings" to optimize that VM to VoIP). Does anyone have any specific suggestions? Are there known issues with VoIP on Ovirt-managed clusters? (I know well reputed companies that sell VoIP server virtual hosting and guarantee the performance, so I know VoIP Virtualization is possible, just need to know if its recommended with Ovirt, and if so what do I need to do to give it the best chance of success?) Thanks! --Jim

oVirt maintence "best practices"
by Jim Kusznir 11 Feb '17

11 Feb '17

hello: Now that I've had my ovirt cluster running for about a month and a half, I am realizing I don't necessarily know the best practices for keeping it up. I've been seeing the notices in the ovirt hosts screen showing that there are updates waiting for the hosts, and I'll put them in maintence mode one at a time and apply the updates. What about the engine itself? Is it recommended/safe to log into the engine and just run "yum update"? Is there other procedures I should be doing? My oVirt cluster is a 3 node cluster with gluster, running on each node. Thanks! --Jim

It depends on many factors. Just saw someone who is running the engine as a VM on a hefty hardware, and his setup had 50 hosts and 2500 VMs. I don't know all the details and specifically what I'd be interested to know is the underlying storage performance and how it's connected. In any case, as you scale up the system you will need more vCPUs and memory. Lastly, in 4.1 we've made various improvements to the engine and its database usage, so I expect somewhat improved performance and scale.

libvirtError: Cannot get interface MTU
by Tyson Landon 10 Feb '17

10 Feb '17

I am new to Ovirt and have a test cluster running with 2 hosts. I have errors when live migrating that started after I installed a new NIC in one host. Live migrate was working fine before the changes. The vdsm log shows the errors below depending on if i am migrating from host1 or host2. Running ovs-vsctl list-br shows that the bridge exists. Ip a shows the interface is down. I do not know what a vdsm bridge is for or if the server just needs to restart a service to get things in order again. Have any of you seen this error before and were able to fix it? HOST 1 libvirtError: Cannot get interface MTU on 'vdsmbr_TK4cSEjh': No such device HOST 2 libvirtError: Cannot get interface MTU on 'vdsmbr_vqqOTlrR': No such device HOST 1 ovs-vsctl list-br vdsmbr_3fDBsCCF vdsmbr_TK4cSEjh vdsmbr_VWhs9soF HOST2 ovs-vsctl list-br vdsmbr_YBtJDFGg vdsmbr_qf3gXZdq vdsmbr_vqqOTlrR Thanks Tyson

Manually starting VMs via vdsClient (HE offline)
by Doug Ingham 10 Feb '17

10 Feb '17

Hi Guys, My Hosted-Engine has failed & it looks like the easiest solution will be to install a new one. Now before I try to re-add the old hosts (still running the guest VMs) & import the storage domain into the new engine, in case things don't go to plan, I want to make sure I'm able to bring up the guests on the hosts manually. The problem is vdsClient is giving me an "Unexpected exception", without much more info as to why it's failing. Any idea? [root@v0 ~]# vdsClient -s 0 list table | grep georep 9d1c3fef-498e-4c20-b124-01364d4d45a8 30455 georep-proxy Down [root@v0 ~]# vdsClient -s 0 continue 9d1c3fef-498e-4c20-b124-01364d4d45a8 Unexpected exception /var/log/vdsm/vdsm.log periodic/1063::WARNING::2017-02-08 17:57:52,532::periodic::276::virt.periodic.VmDispatcher::(__call__) could not run <class 'vdsm.virt.periodic.DriveWatermarkMonitor'> on ['65c9807c-7216-40b3-927c-5fd93bbd42ba', u'9d1c3fef-498e-4c20-b124-01364d4d45a8'] Cheers, -- Doug

Best way to shutdown and restart hypervisor?
by Gianluca Cecchi 10 Feb '17

10 Feb '17

Hello, what is considered the best way to shutdown and restart an hypervisor, supposing plain CentOS 7 host? For example to cover these scenarios: 1) update host from 4.0 to 4.1 2) planned maintenance to the cabinet where the server is located and take the opportunity to update also OS packages My supposed workflow: - put host into maintenance - yum update on host - shutdown os from inside host (because from power mgmt it is brutal power off / power on) --> should I get any warning from web admin gui in this case, even if the host was in maintenance mode? - power mgmt -> start from webadmin gui (or power on button/virtual button at host side?) Would be advisable to put inside power mgmt functionality some logic about os mgmt, so for example, if action is restart, first try to shutdown OS and only in case of failure power off/power on? Thanks in advance, Gianluca

Hello there, I am trying to add a VmPool to oVirt using the python ovirtSDK4 with following lines: I am omitting the import packages lines and connection lines. system_service = connection.system_service() vm_pools_service = system_service.vm_pools_service() templates_service = system_service.templates_service() clusters_service = system_service.clusters_service() tplist = templates_service.list(search='name=prueba') tpl=None biggest=-1 for t in tplist: ver = t.version if ver.version_number > biggest: biggest = ver.version_number tid = t.id tpl = t c = None for cluster in clusters_service.list(): if cluster.name == 'Pruebacluster': c = cluster pool = ovirtsdk4.types.VmPool(name='PRUEBA',size=1,type =ovirtsdk4.types.VmPoolType('manual'),template=tpl,cluster=c) vm_pools_service.add(pool=pool) I am getting the following error: Fault reason is "Request syntactically incorrect.". Fault detail is "For correct usage, see: https://ovirt.example.com/ovirt-engine/api/v4/model#services/vm-pools/metho…". HTTP response code is 400. I am a newbie in using this version of the API, suppose this is quite easy problem. Thanks for all the answers to come, Manuel
