[Users] Question about: Host swap percentage is above the defined threshold.
by Daniel Rowe 30 Nov '12

30 Nov '12

Hi I currently have a one node ovirt setup I am migrating VMs to. I have reached a point where trying to start new VMs I get: Error while executing action: Cannot run VM. Host swap percentage is above the defined threshold. - Check your configuration parameters for Host Swap Percentage. Adjusting the BlockMigrationOnSwapUsagePercentage setting seems to do nothing. The node does have lots of free RAM and is current sitting at 68%. The node is a full fedora 17 minimal install and does have a large swap partition on fast 15k SAS disks and 48gig of RAM. So why is changing the BlockMigrationOnSwapUsagePercentage not doing anything and how do it get more VMs running? I need to over commit a bit but will be adding a new identical node to spread the load once I get all the VMs off the machine I am migrating from. I also notice the "Shared Memory" value is 0% why is this so? Do I need to set something to get same page sharing? Thanks for any advice. Regards Daniel

The wiki is writeable again, redirects of old content to new locations are working, and you should be able to go about reading, writing, creating, and collaborating. Enjoy the new look&feel: http://www.ovirt.org There are a lot of small components making *.ovirt.org run, it's fairly certain we've missed something. If you see anything wrong, broken, or confusing a, you can drop by IRC, email infra(a)ovirt.org, or file a ticket here: http://fedorahosted.org/ovirt Thanks to everyone for making this migration happen. It's going to be nice not having to manage the platform for these non-core-technology components. The Infra team will be able to focus a bit more on the deeper parts of the oVirt infrastructure of participation. In particular, thanks to: * Garrett Lesage lead the effort to improve not only the look&feel of the ovirt.org website, but to reconsider the user experience. He worked on making the top-level of the site show what the technology is, what the project is, and what you can download and do here. He took on the challenge of making MediaWiki look good for all the user classes - casual browser through to regular contributor. (And thanks especially for saving the front page this week when we realized we didn't have the desired video content and feed widgets available.) * Dave Neary focused on taking the framework of the new site and breathing life in to it with content pages, redirects, MediaWiki extensions, and so forth. He worked on troubleshooting our transfer details, tracking project details and progress, and generally beating on parts until he hammered them in to shape. Thanks also to Jason Brooks, who took advantage of the tradition of IRC to just get involved in what was happening. Jason helped troubleshoot and fix some of the transfer details, such as http rewrite rules. Overall, I've been pleased with the transparency and accessibility of the process. I hope others feel the same, but regardless of how you feel, your feedback is very appreciated. Thanks - Karsten On 11/29/2012 01:02 PM, Karsten 'quaid' Wade wrote: > This outage is now starting.

[Users] [ATTENTION] vdsm-bootstrap/host deployment (pre-3.2)
by Alon Bar-Lev 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

Hello All, Preparing to ovirt-engine 3.2 the entire "vdsm-bootstrap" bootstrap was re-written from scratch into more pluggable and flexible implementation, available at git master and nightly snapshots. As far as packaging is concerned there are now two more dependencies to ovirt-engine: * otopi -- oVirt Task Oriented Pluggable Installer/Implementation * ovirt-host-deploy -- oVirt host deploy tool These packages replace the legacy vdsm-bootstrap package that was distributed with vdsm. Git repositories are available at at[1][2]. Documentation is available at Git repositories - README*. Builds are available at usual place[3]. Bugzilla components will be available shortly. Change log is attached. There is no change in the way the engine is performing the host deployment process in term of user experience, other than event log messages during deployment were improved. The log of the deployment is fetched from host and stored at engine machine at /var/log/ovirt-engine/host-deploy, on host it is at /tmp/ovirt-host-deploy*.log and deleted when fetched to engine. Among other features, the ovir-host-deploy package can be installed manually on host and executed to prepare host for installation, in future we may be able to add host to engine without performing the deployment process, for now it will be usable for integration tests. The internals are completely different, instead of having 3 different bootstrap sequences: 1. host install 2. ovirt-node install 3. ovirt-node approve We now have single sequence which is common to host and node installation or re-installation, end result is much simpler implementation. Please report any issues even minor issues, so we can stabilize it for 3.2 release. Best Regards, Alon Bar-Lev.
