oVirt node 4.4.1 deploy FQDN not reachable
by Roberto Nunin 25 Aug '20

25 Aug '20

Hi all I have an issue while trying to deploy hyperconverged solution on three ovirt node boxes. ISO used is ovirt-node-ng-installer-4.4.1-2020072310.el8.iso. When from cockpit I choose gluster deployment, I have a form where I can insert both gluster fqdn names and public fqdn names (that is what I need, due to distinct network cards & networks) If I insert right names, that are resolved by nodes, I receive, anyway, FQDN is not reachable below Host1 entries. As already stated, these names are certainly resolved by DNS used. Any hints about ? -- Roberto Nunin

Actual oVirt install questions
by David White 25 Aug '20

25 Aug '20

:) Ok, after all of the questions I've pestered you guys with, I'm actually getting started. Thank you all for your help. A few of questions right off the bat. For this install, I'm installing the latest (4.4.2) onto CentOS 8. 1) What's the difference between the `ovirt-hosted-engine-setup` command and the `engine-setup` command? I ran both of them, and it seems like they do the exact same thing. 2) For either of the commands above, I'm able to get as far as the step where it asks about the storage: Please specify the storage you would like to use (glusterfs, iscsi, fc, nfs)[nfs] It's clear to me that using this install method, the storage should be setup first / independently of the installer. So ok, I'll try the Cockpit install, since the documentation says that's the preferred method anyway. (I'm just a sucker for the command line, doing it myself, and understanding everything that I'm doing. I like to avoid GUIs if I can help it. LOL). So I logged into the Cockpit Dashboard at {ip-address}:9090, clicked on 'Virtualization' then clicked on Hosted Engine. Here, I clicked on Hyperconvered, and since I'm just installing to a single host right now, I clicked on Run Gluster Wizard for Single Node. So here's my 3rd question. 3) I can't get past the first step of this wizard. It is asking for the FQDN of the host (Host1). - The documentation indicates that this is NOT the base OS, but I've tried that - I've also tried the IP address that I intend to use for the manager (i.e. what I envision is akin to the vCenter IP address for a vSphere environment -- correct?) In both cases, the wizard won't let me proceed, and keeps saying "Host is not added to known_hosts" What am I missing, here? I'm familiar with the known_hosts file... but that's the VM / manager that I'm trying to create, I thought? Why does the wizard continue to give me that error message?

Is oVirt suited for supporting long-lived VMs than OpenStack?
by yam yam 24 Aug '20

24 Aug '20

Hi guys, I'm wondering why people say oVirt is better suited for traditional workloads like long-lived VMs than OpenStack. does oVirt have some additional features for it? Of course, VMs in OpenStack might be intentionally killed according to resource pressure if auto-scaling is used. but otherwise, I guess OpenStack has enough to run long-lived VMs. thanks.

Incremental VM backups
by Kevin Doyle 24 Aug '20

24 Aug '20

Hi I am looking at ways to backup VM's, ideally that support incremental backups. I have found a couple of python scripts that snapshot a VM and back it up but not incremental. The question is what do you use to backup the VM's ? (both linux and windows) Thanks Kevin

VMware import : older SSL version problems
by Philip Brown 23 Aug '20

23 Aug '20

using ovirt 4.4.1 to attempt to import from VMware, I have a problem with older SSL ciphers: libvirt.libvirtError: internal error: curl_easy_perform() returned an error: SSL connect error (35) : error:1425F102:SSL routines:ssl_choose_client_version:unsupported protocol where can I tell it "shut up and take the data"? I found on the web a generic openssl reference that supposedly I should be able to edit /etc/pki/tls/openssl.cnf and add MinProtocol=TLSv1.0 CipherString = DEFAULT@SECLEVEL=1 but that didnt help. its still complaining about the SSL protocol. -- Philip Brown| Sr. Linux System Administrator | Medata, Inc. 5 Peters Canyon Rd Suite 250 Irvine CA 92606 Office 714.918.1310| Fax 714.918.1325 pbrown(a)medata.com| www.medata.com

ovirt-imageio : can't upload / download
by Michael Jones 23 Aug '20

23 Aug '20

Hi, I have image upload/download working on some older ovirt servers where it still has the split daemon/proxy... on one newer one this feature is not working; software in use: CentOS 8 ovirt-engine-4.4.1.10-1.el8.noarch ovirt-imageio-client-2.0.9-1.el8.x86_64 ovirt-imageio-daemon-2.0.9-1.el8.x86_64 ovirt-imageio-common-2.0.9-1.el8.x86_64 the ui test button allowed me to work out 50-vdsm.conf was setting the wrong remote port... (was 54322, changed to 54323) updated remote with; [remote] host = 0.0.0.0 port = 54323 the test now passes, but on upload or download it still fails. Next i changed the control to be unix socket instead of tcp port 54324 (vdsm was giving an error: Image daemon is unsupported); I looked up the error line in the vdsm code, and found it was looking for unix socket: DAEMON_SOCK=/run/ovirt-imageio/sock switching to sock seemed to resolve all errors in the vdsm log; --- content of the imageio log; no errors as far as i can see: 2020-08-18

HCI Cluster Configuration
by Clint Boggio 20 Aug '20

20 Aug '20

Ovirt 4.3.9 HCI Gluster 3 Dell 730XD Managed Engine When I finished the "hosted engine deploy" I failed to add the gluster storage according to the documentation and i'd like to get that back on track. 1. I ticked the check box in the cluster configuration to "enable gluster service", all of my current gluster storage domains went "red triangle" on me and the hosts also went "red triangle" so I quickly changed it back and all went back to normal. Do I need to check that box to make the "Use Managed Gluster Volume" check box and drop down menu show my HCI gluster volumes that exist on the three nodes ? Do I need to put the storage domain(s) in maintenance mode to change them from unmanaged to managed ? Will the system honor the VM(s) that live in my "engine" and "vmstore" gluster volumes which are currently in use in the system if/when I change them from unmanaged to managed,or will the system wipe them and hose my managed engine and VMs ? Thank you for your help !
