Gluster setup 3 Node - Now only showing single node setup in setup Wizard
by rob.downer＠orbitalsystems.co.uk 25 Nov '19

25 Nov '19

I have set up 3 Nodes with a separate volume for Gluster, I have set up the two networks and DNS works fine SSH has been set up for Gluster and you can login via ssh to the other two hosts from the host used to set up. When going to Virtualisation > Setup Gluster and Hosted Engine only single node shows up. I have restarted all 3 machines. All nodes machines show up in Dashboard etc... I have set this up before but it all worked, I erased everything and set up again with the separate volume to be used for Gluster storage

Beginning oVirt / Hyperconverged
by email＠christian-reiss.de 25 Nov '19

25 Nov '19

Hey folks! Quick question, really: I have 4 servers of identical hardware. The documentation says "you need 3", not "you need 3 or more"; is it possible to run hyperconverged with 4 servers (in same rack, let's neglect the possibility of 2 failing servers (split brain))? Also: I have a nice seperate server (low power footprint, big on cpu (8) and has 32gb ram)-- would love to use this as engine server only. Can I initiate a hyperconverged system with 4 working host starting from a stand-alone engine? Or does "hyperconverged" a must for HA engine on the cluster? One last one: Installing ovirt nodes, obviously. This will by default create a lvm across the entire RAID volume; can I simply create folders (with correct permissions) and use those as gluster bricks? Or do I need to partition the RAID in a special way? Thanks for your pointers, Chris.

Windows 2019 Server - Memory Usage
by Joseph Goldman 25 Nov '19

25 Nov '19

Hi List, My Windows Server 2019 installs dont seem to report memory usage to the ovirt engine. They have the ovirt-guest-agent installed, is there something else I need to do to get them reporting back to the engine/hypervisor? Thanks, Joe

VM Lock state location
by Joseph Goldman 25 Nov '19

25 Nov '19

Hi *, Trying to figure out where a VM's lockstate is stored. I have a few VM's that seem to be stuck in lock state. I have done an ./unlock_entity.sh -t all, and a -q gives me nothing in a lock state. I have jumped on psql DB direct and looked through as many tables as I can looking for a locked status, everything seems fine. In the engine, on these VM's if I try to do any actions I get a message similar to: 'Failed to Acquire Lock to object 'EngineLock:{exclusiveLocks='[6c2fc524-2f13-4cad-9108-347be2e88d1a=VM]', sharedLocks=''}'' When this issue first started, I was trying to do backups with snapshots, I got a lot of messages similar to this: /var/log/ovirt-engine/engine.log-20191121.gz:2019-11-20 11:44:30,441+10 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.lock.InMemoryLockManager] (EE-ManagedThreadFactory-engineScheduled-Thread-41) [6cafc1ef] Trying to release a shared lock for key: '6 c2fc524-2f13-4cad-9108-347be2e88d1aVM' , but lock does not exist /var/log/ovirt-engine/engine.log-20191121.gz:2019-11-20 11:44:30,441+10 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.storage.disk.image.TransferImageStatusCommand] (EE-ManagedThreadFactory-engineScheduled-Thread-41) [6cafc1ef] Lock freed to object ' EngineLock:{exclusiveLocks='', sharedLocks='[6c2fc524-2f13-4cad-9108-347be2e88d1a=VM, ab5d4e18-f0c6-4472-8d2e-8c3bd1ff1a6a=DISK]'}' I have made sure there is nothing in async_tasks, commands and the _entities tables for both. There was some command_entities, but I took a backup of the engine and decided to run a delete on that table (There was about 5 stuck records there) but that hasn't helped The affected VMs, cant delete snapshots, cant delete their disks, cant delete the VM, cant boot the VMs - they are just stuck in the engine. My ultimate question is, where is the engine looking up that lockstate as I believe it is stuck locked in error, so I can go there and manually force a removal of the lock state and at least delete these VM's - as ultimately I have cloned them to get the VM's back up and running. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Willing to pay consulting fee if you believe you have the answer for this one. Thanks, Joe

Export of disk possible?
by Gianluca Cecchi 24 Nov '19

24 Nov '19

Hello, in 4.3 I can: - Storage -> Domains -> Select Domain -> Disks -> Select Disk -> Download and this will download the disk image to my client, that then I can upload to a different environment - Storage -> Disks -> Select Disk -> Export But then, even if I have an export domain active I get this kind of window that I don't understand.... https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UU7NaoQ9F01oEkciUgz29HW-4dOPQVeF/view?usp=… Perhaps it means another DC managed by the same Engine is needed? How can I export a virtual disk from an engine environment to another engine environment? Yes, I can artificially create a VM and attach the disk to it and then export the VM, but is there a functionality to directly export a disk to an export domain? Thanks, Gianluca

Howto recover/reinstall a failed oVirt node in a 3 node HCI cluster
by Timo Eissler 22 Nov '19

22 Nov '19

Hello, i can't find the documentation on howto recover from a single host OS disk failure in a 3 node HCI cluster. I already searched the ovirt, RHV and RHHI documentation but i can't find the corresponding documentation. So can anyone please give me some hints? In our dev lab i have 3 servers with 2 disks each. sda for ovirt node and sdb for gluster. Let's assume the disk sda of a single node is defunct and needs to be replaced. So i grab a new disk and reinstall ovirt node from PXE. After the installation is finished i would like to reinstall the host from ovirt admin portal, but that doesn't work because of an invalid fingerprint. So how can i re-add that host to ovirt and gluster? Kind regards, Timo
