Any way to correlate a VM disk (e.g. /dev/vda) to the vdsm ovirt disk?

I want to correlate virtual disks back to their originating storage under ovirt. Is there any way to do this? e.g. (made up example) /dev/vda maps to ovirt disk disk1_vm serial 978e00a3-b4c9-4962-bc4f-ffc9267acdd8

live snapshot merge missing after vdsm update

The Engine itself is installed on a dedicated server (CentOS 6) and is stil= l on version 3.5.1.1-1.el6. During some maintenance a couple of days ago on the Fedora 20 nodes, also = the installed vdsm package was updated by the engineer working on the nodes= . We went from version 'vdsm-4.16.10-8.gitc937927.fc20' to 'vdsm-4.16.26-0.fc= 20'. This morning I wanted to remove some old snapshots on running vm's, only to= find out that the delete button is once again greyed out. I also created a new snapshot on a running vm to test if it would only happ= en on snapshots that were already there before the update, but the delete b= utton would still remain greyed out. Only turning off the vm allows me to use the delete button. When looking at the nodes within the cluster, they both still have Live Sna= pshot Support on Active. Before the vdsm update, the live merge functionality worked perfectly. Anybody experienced something similar? Could It be because the Engine is still running on 3.5.1? We are also running 2 clusters with F21 nodes that have the same vdsm versi= on nummer installed and they don't have an issue at all; connected to the s= ame engine.

oVirt Engine redundant ?

13 Oct '15

--=_b5ae4dd5edb7f3efcaaf1d71e197ef06 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Hello I got a question regarding the redundancy of oVirt Engine; where we can control everything through the GUI; aka the vCenter. Initially; my setup was on a single server; installed following the doc AllinOne. Then after; i figured out that i would need redundancy; so i installed a second node. my question is about the vCenter; is it possible to start it on the second node when the first node is down or in maintenance ? how to ensure it is replicated ? i see there is a postgres DB on first node; but not on second node. I'm a bit worried. So, is it possible to have a dormant/slave ovirt ENGINE (oVirt web GUI ) ; and if yes, could you point me to the related documentation as i didn't find it. Maybe, it is possible to run it in a VM ? is it a good idea ? and is it still possible to migrate ?

Best practice
by Fernando Fuentes 12 Oct '15

12 Oct '15

Is there a best practice when upgrading from ovirt 3.4 to 3.5? I upgraded my development server which is a self hosted server and I just did a regular update without putting anything under maintenance... Though my vm's where turned off. The migration from krb/ldap to AAA went smoothly and so far is running like a champ. I am about to do the same to our production cluster and was wondering if I must put all Hosts under maintenance before I do the upgrade? Thanks in advance for all/any tips from the mailing list!

upgrade path from Ovirt 3.5x to 3.6x
by Andrea Ghelardi 12 Oct '15

12 Oct '15

Hallo, I needed a quick confirmation on this subject. Our environment is Ovirt 3.511 (yes, I’ll upgrade soon, I know) running on a Centos 6.6 hosted engine VM on a cluster of Centos 6.6 physical servers. Since Ovirt 3.6x will be compatible with Centos 7 hypervisor only, how I’m supposed to upgrade hosted engine, VM and HOSTs? i.e. readme tells us the well known procedure (put hosted eng in maintenance, upgrade, etc) but I will eventually end in a scenario where my hosted engine 3.6 will run on centos 7 VM running (on) a lot of centos 6.6 servers... Please tell me I have not to create a totally different datacenter and export -> import all VMs... Thank you! Andrea Ghelardi

ovirt repos dependencies
by Nathanaël Blanchet 12 Oct '15

12 Oct '15

Hello, I tried to install a single host with a custom repo synced by my own from official ovirt, gluster repos etc... (with katello). But installation always fail because otopi can't locate gluster packages, while those packages are available and can be yum installed on the host. So, what does otopi require more than gluster repo for a successfull installation? This limitation prevents from anyone to install a host from an other repo than official ones (in my case, using a katello subscription) -- Nathanaël Blanchet Supervision réseau Pôle Infrastrutures Informatiques 227 avenue Professeur-Jean-Louis-Viala 34193 MONTPELLIER CEDEX 5 Tél. 33 (0)4 67 54 84 55 Fax 33 (0)4 67 54 84 14 blanchet(a)abes.fr

Hello, In the foreman host provisionning process, should the "yum localinstall http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release35.rpm" be automatically executed in the same way as it is in a traditional way? it seems that whithout those repos, vdsm installation fails, even if the host had been previously registered with katello to a local ovirt repository.

Hi, I would like to update ovirt to 3.5.4 from 3.5.3 but engine-setup fails due to remove snapshot tasks. [ INFO ] Cleaning async tasks and compensations The following system tasks have been found running in the system: The following commands have been found running in the system: The following compensations have been found running in the system: org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.RemoveSnapshotCommand org.ovirt.engine.core.common.businessentities.Snapshot org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.RemoveSnapshotCommand org.ovirt.engine.core.common.businessentities.Snapshot org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.RemoveSnapshotCommand org.ovirt.engine.core.common.businessentities.Snapshot org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.RemoveSnapshotCommand org.ovirt.engine.core.common.businessentities.Snapshot Would you like to try to wait for that?

VM's in wrong state
by Johan Kooijman 09 Oct '15

09 Oct '15

Hi all, Since a couple of days I have one node with non responsive VM's. The node is OK and the VM's are working actually, just show the wrong state. I'll find out why it happened, but for now I need to correct the state. Any ideas on how to do that? -- Met vriendelijke groeten / With kind regards, Johan Kooijman

migration procedures
by Brett Stevens 09 Oct '15

09 Oct '15

Hi Guys. We've been using a single instance all in one ovirt 3.5 with local storage with quite some success for about 6 months. We are a small school and have managed to secure some funding for a decent setup 2 x compute and 2 x storage clusters. I want a separate, non vm manager (so as to provide a host for gluster arbiter nodes ) along with some other functions (nagiso etc) So my real question, has anyone migrated a similar system? any ideas on how to get the current vms over to the new infrastructure. I can do shutdown and move, but it would be great if I can join the two and live migrate somehow. I'd like to use 3.6 when available if that is possible. thanks Brett Stevens

Re: [ovirt-users] Admin <at> internal inlog problems with clean install 3.6RC
by Christopher Miersma 09 Oct '15

I'm having the same problem with the latest packages for 3.6 RC. I've tried reinstalling a number of times, setting up with and without an answer file, and I always get a login denied error. Log entries: (from trying ovirt-shell) 2015-10-05 09:30:48,361 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.aaa.filters.BasicAuthenticationFilter] (default task-1) [] User admin authentication failed. profile is internal.

This is all happening during the middle of a hosted-engine setup, which throws everything off. I've also done clean re-installs a number of times. Early last week, when the release candidate first came out, I did not have this issue. I was able to complete the install without any problems. Has anyone found a way to get around this if it starts happening? Christopher

Questions about 3.6RC
by jaumotte, styve 07 Oct '15

07 Oct '15

Hi everybody, We have planned to migrate from xen open source to ovirt and we study the differences between 3.5.4 version and 3.6. I have some questions about this differences : - In 3.6RC, we don't see anymore the HostedEngine virtual machine in ovirt. My install is correct or this feature is not available anymore ? - In 3.6RC, my windows virtual machine status show an orange exlamation point which indicates " Actual operating system type differs from the configuration ". I don't know what is wrong, the operating system is correct and my vm works well. Thanks for your answers, S.J

Support for QinQ
by Sigbjorn Lie 07 Oct '15

07 Oct '15

Hi list, I've been looking around the web for QinQ support in Ovirt. I see that QinQ is supported in CentOS 6.x and above. However I cannot see any documented support in Ovirt. I've come across the page below which details QinQ as a future feature. Is QinQ still a future feature, or is it possible to use QinQ with Ovirt today somehow? http://www.ovirt.org/Networking Regards, Siggi

Managing two DCs with ovirt
by wodel youchi 07 Oct '15

07 Oct '15

Hi, I need some help to decide which is better / feasible with ovirt to manage two or more distant DCs. Let say that we have two distant DCs to virtualize with ovirt. we have two options to manage them: 1- install two engines, one on each DC, the good side is, if one DC is down, we can still manage the other one. the down side we will have two consoles to manage. 2- install one engine to manage the two DCs, the good side is the use of one console to rule them all :-) the down side is if the DC containing the engine become down, there is way to manage the other one. is there (will be there in the future) a way for example to create a slave engine in the second DC which can takeover and let the admin to manage the second DC? thanks in advance

LDAP authentication with TLS
by Steve Dainard 07 Oct '15

07 Oct '15

Hello, Trying to configure Ovirt 3.5.3.1-1.el7.centos for LDAP authentication. I've configured the appropriate aaa profile but I'm getting TLS errors when I search for users to add via ovirt: The connection reader was unable to successfully complete TLS negotiation: javax_net_ssl_SSLHandshakeException: sun_security_validator_ValidatorException: No trusted certificate found caused by sun_security_validator_ValidatorException: No trusted certificate found I added the external CA certificate using keytool as per https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine-extension-aaa-ldap with appropriate adjustments of course: keytool -importcert -noprompt -trustcacerts -alias myrootca \ -file myrootca.pem -keystore myrootca.jks -storepass changeit I know this certificate works, and can connect to LDAP with TLS as I'm using the same LDAP configuration/certificate with SSSD. Can anyone clarify whether I should be adding the external CA certificate or the LDAP host certificate with keytool or any other suggestions? Thanks, Steve
