strange behavior of ovirt-node ng update
by Sergey Kulikov 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

I have one Ovirt Node in my test cluster(others are centos), I'm observing strange behavior of update checker in engine. In options I can see: engine=# select * from vdc_options where option_name='OvirtNodePackageNamesForCheckUpdate'; option_id | option_name | option_value | version -----------+-------------------------------------+----------------------------+--------- 124 | OvirtNodePackageNamesForCheckUpdate | ovirt-node-ng-image-update | general (1 row) so it tries to check for updated version of ovirt-node-ng-image-update, but there is no ovirt-node-ng-image-update package installed inside updated node image, so engine always shows available updates on this node to the same version: > Check for available updates on host XXX was completed successfully with message 'found updates for packages ovirt-node-ng-image-4.1.1-1.el7.centos, ovirt-node-ng-image-update-4.1.1-1.el7.centos'. I saw a bug in bugzilla, that it should be fixed in 4.0 Initially engine was set up as 4.x version, after that updated between releases and finally to 4.1.0, and today to 4.1.1. I saw this behavior on 4.1.0 node and also on 4.1.1, on this page: http://www.ovirt.org/node/4.0/update/ Maybe my OvirtNodePackageNamesForCheckUpdate was changed between releases, but engine-setup left it untouched and i should change it manually? If so, what it should look like? --

VMs changing to unknown state

I have an ovirt host running ovirt 4.0 which keeps putting the VMs running on that host into an unknown state. I checked the vdsm logs and there are several errors similar to below. Mar 20 10:16:11 ovirt-node-production3.example.com vdsm[17123]: vdsm root ERROR Unhandled exception Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/utils.py", line 372, in wrapper return f(*a, **kw) File "/usr/share/vdsm/virt/migration.py", line 624, in run self.monitor_migration() File "/usr/share/vdsm/virt/migration.py", line 657, in monitor_migration job_stats = self._vm._dom.jobStats() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/virt/virdomain.py", line 69, in f ret = attr(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/libvirtconnection.py", line 123, in wrapper ret = f(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/utils.py", line 917, in wrapper return func(inst, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 1387, in jobStats if ret is None: raise libvirtError ('virDomainGetJobStats() failed', dom=self) libvirtError: Requested operation is not valid: domain is not running Restarting vdsmd resolves the issue however I would like to resolve the issue permanently.

NFS ISO domain from hosted-engine VM
by Devin A. Bougie 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

Hi, All. Are there any recommendations or best practices WRT whether or not to host an NFS ISO domain from the hosted-engine VM (running the oVirt Engine Appliance)? We have a hosted-engine 4.1.1 cluster up and running, and now just have to decide where to serve the NFS ISO domain from. Many thanks, Devin

hosted-engine with iscsi storage domain
by Devin A. Bougie 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

We have a hosted-engine running on 4.1 with an iSCSI hosted_storage domain, and are able to import the domain. However, we cannot attache the domain to the data center. Just to make sure I'm not missing something basic, does the engine VM need to be able to connect to the iSCSI target itself? In other words, does the iSCSI traffic need to go over the ovirtmgmt bridged network? Currently we have the iSCSI SAN on a separate subnet from ovirtmgmt, so the hosted-engine VM can't directly see the iSCSI storage. Thanks, Devin

Python-SDK: ovirtsdk4.Connection object autologout?
by nicolas＠devels.es 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

Hi, We've recently upgraded from oVirt 4.0.x to 4.1.0 and it seems that the behavior of a script we wrote in Python-SDK has changed slightly. We have a script that needs to be executed forever (daemon mode). This daemon creates an ovirtsdk4.Connection object and uses the same Connection object all the time. conn = sdk.Connection( url=URI, username=USERNAME, password=PASSWORD, ca_file=CAFILE ) Between iterations we have ~5 minutes delays which we accomplish with a time.sleep(...) call. After some of these iterations (5 or 6), when trying to perform an operation on the Connection object (in this case, listing all SDs): try: sys_serv = conn.system_service() sd_serv = sys_serv.storage_domains_service() storages = sd_serv.list(search=sd_search_query) except Error, e: log('ERR: Error getting storage domains: %s' % (e)) We start getting exceptions (i.e., the sd_serv.list() call throwing an Error exception) with this message: ERR: Error getting storage domains: HTTP response code is 401. I believe this has something to do with the Connection object expiring (even if it's not idle more than 5 minutes at any time). Is there a way to "refresh" the Connection object so it doesn't auto-logout (assuming this is the actual problem)? As I said, this started happening as of oVirt 4.1.0. ovirt-engine-sdk-python version is 4.1.1. Any ideas? Thanks.

Expand an ovirt+glusterfs cluster
by Davide Ferrari 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

Hello I have a 4 node oVirt 4.0 cluster running on top of glusterfs volumes, managed by the oVirt cluster (option ticked in the cluster properties) Now, I'm adding several new nodes to this cluster with a better CPU (Broadwell vs Haswell) but now comes the "bad" part. Out of enthusiasm I've already added storage from these new servers to the data volume already present and used by the current cluster. In fact now ovirt has detected new hosts and it's asking me if I want to add these host to the cluster. But there are two problems: 1) I want to create a new, Broadwell cluster 2) I'm using a separate VLAN+domain name for gluster, and oVirt is proposing me to use the gluster (storage) domain names as the new hosts identifier. What are the right steps/actions to take now? It's a running production system. Thanks in advance -- Davide Ferrari Senior Systems Engineer

ovirt 4.1 - mount recovery iso for failing vm ?
by Ian Neilsen 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

Guys I've spent the day reading any and all content on recovering a failing to boot vm under ovirt 4.1 and am finding many cmds are deprecated , old processes no longer work. What is the correct way to mount an iso to perform recovery on a boot partition of a failing VM in oVirt 4.1? vm.conf, virsh, virt-edit, vmhost.xml, vdsClient, new vda, way too many options and no singular right way to do this that works well. -- Ian Neilsen Mobile: 0424 379 762 Linkedin: http://au.linkedin.com/in/ianneilsen Twitter : ineilsen

how to handle mount options for hosted engine on glusterfs
by /dev/null 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

Hi, how do i make the hosted_storage aware of gluster server failure? In --deploy i cannot provide backup-volfile-servers. In /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf there is an mnt_options line, but i read (https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/commit/995c6a65ab897d804…) that this settings get lost during deployment on seconday servers. Is there an official way to deal with that? Should this option be set manualy on all nodes?

23 Mar '17

Hi, I want to set priority of Highly Available VM as High via python SDK. I provided information as shown below: vm = self.vms_service.add( vm = types.Vm ( high_availability = types.HighAvailability( enabled = True, priority = 1, ), ), ) As see above priority we have to provide as number but in GUI we can choose drop down menu as ("LOW", "MID" and "HIGH"). I wan to set priority as "HIGH", which integer value I have to set in priority ? I tried with 1 and 3 it shows "LOW" in both cases. Please help me. Thanks, ~Rohit

OSSEC reporting hidden processes
by Charles Kozler 22 Mar '17

22 Mar '17

Hi - I am wondering why OSSEC would be reporting hidden processes on my ovirt nodes? I run OSSEC across the infrastructure and multiple ovirt clusters have assorted nodes that will report a process is running but does not have an entry in /proc and thus "possible rootkit" alert is fired I am well aware that I do not have rootkits on these systems but am wondering what exactly inside ovirt is causing this to trigger? Or any ideas? Below is sample alert. All my google-fu turns up is that a process would have to **try** to hide itself from /proc, so curious what this is inside ovirt. Thanks! ------------- OSSEC HIDS Notification. 2017 Mar 20 11:54:47 Received From: (ovirtnode2.mydomain.com2) any->rootcheck Rule: 510 fired (level 7) -> "Host-based anomaly detection event (rootcheck)." Portion of the log(s): Process '24574' hidden from /proc. Possible kernel level rootkit. --END OF NOTIFICATION ------------

The Hosted Engine Storage Domain doesn't exist. It should be imported into the setup.
by Paolo Margara 22 Mar '17

22 Mar '17

Hi list, I'm working on a system running on oVirt 3.6 and the Engine is reporting the warning "The Hosted Engine Storage Domain doesn't exist. It should be imported into the setup." repeatedly in the Events tab into the Admin Portal. I've read into the list that Hosted Engine Storage Domain should be imported automatically into the setup during the upgrade to 3.6 (original setup was on 3.5), but this not happened while the HostedEngine is correctly visible into the VM tab after the upgrade. The Hosted Engine Storage Domain is on a dedicated gluster volume but considering that, if I remember correctly, oVirt 3.5 at that time did not support gluster as a backend for the HostedEngine at that time I had installed the engine using gluster's NFS server using 'localhost:/hosted-engine' as a mount point. Currently on every nodes I can read into the log of the ovirt-hosted-engine-ha agent the following lines: MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:17,773::hosted_engine::462::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(start_monitoring) Current state EngineUp (score: 3400) MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:17,774::hosted_engine::467::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(start_monitoring) Best remote host virtnode-0-1 (id: 2 , score: 3400) MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:27,956::hosted_engine::613::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(_initialize_vdsm) Initializing VDSM MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:28,055::hosted_engine::658::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(_initialize_storage_images) Connecting the storage MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:28,078::storage_server::218::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.lib.storage_server.StorageServer::(connect_storage_server) Connecting storage server MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:28,278::storage_server::222::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.lib.storage_server.StorageServer::(connect_storage_server) Connecting storage server MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:28,398::storage_server::230::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.lib.storage_server.StorageServer::(connect_storage_server) Refreshing the storage domain MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:28,822::hosted_engine::685::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(_initialize_storage_images) Preparing images MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:28,822::image::126::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.lib.image.Image::(prepare_images) Preparing images MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:29,308::hosted_engine::688::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(_initialize_storage_images) Reloading vm.conf from the shared storage domain MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:29,309::config::206::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine.config::(refresh_local_conf_file) Trying to get a fresher copy of vm configuration from the OVF_STORE MainThread::WARNING::2017-03-17 14:04:29,567::ovf_store::104::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.lib.ovf.ovf_store.OVFStore::(scan) Unable to find OVF_STORE MainThread::ERROR::2017-03-17 14:04:29,691::config::235::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine.config::(refresh_local_conf_file) Unable to get vm.conf from O VF_STORE, falling back to initial vm.conf ...and the following lines into the logfile engine.log inside the Hosted Engine: 2017-03-16 07:36:28,087 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.ImportHostedEngineStorageDomainCommand] (org.ovirt.thread.pool-8-thread-38) [236d315c] Lock Acquired to object 'EngineLock:{exclusiveLocks='[]', sharedLocks='null'}' 2017-03-16 07:36:28,115 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.ImportHostedEngineStorageDomainCommand] (org.ovirt.thread.pool-8-thread-38) [236d315c] CanDoAction of action 'ImportHostedEngineStorageDomain' failed for user SYSTEM.

Ovirt-Engine Notification via Python SDK
by TranceWorldLogic . 22 Mar '17

22 Mar '17

Hi, I want to register my python script with ovirt to get notification.(e.g .Host went down or came up.) But not got any information on same it look to me that polling is the only one solution. I am sending this mail to confirm my understanding (ovirt-engine not send notification to python script or it not have any hook to extend functionality) *Why I Want Extend Ovirt-engine functionanlity?* I want to auto start VM after host come up. And for this If ound a bug on Ovirt .. and it is very old and still no solution. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1325468 Bug 1325468 I am just searching for workaround. Note: I am using ovirt 4.0. Please help me to know whether ovirt-engine have any extension mechanism ? Thanks, ~Rohit

ovirt ENGINE stuck in paused state following new partition
by Ian Neilsen 22 Mar '17

22 Mar '17

hi guys Bit of a pickle. I expanded my engine managers disk with a new partition and formatted to ext4, however I seem to have been hit by a superblock issue on the new ext4 partition. The engine is now stuck in paused state. I rebooted, powered-off the engine vm but it wont come out of PAUSED state. I cannot obviously access the console, with it giving me paused messages. VNC console is down also. Any suggestions on restoring the engine vm? Logs are not showing anything. Storage is up, vdsm seems happy, broker seems happy, nothing really jumping out. Obviously the VM is havign start issues. -- Ian Neilsen Mobile: 0424 379 762 Linkedin: http://au.linkedin.com/in/ianneilsen Twitter : ineilsen

Strange network performance on VirtIIO VM NIC
by FERNANDO FREDIANI 21 Mar '17

21 Mar '17

Hello all. I have a peculiar problem here which perhaps others may have had or know about and can advise. I have Virtual Machine with 2 VirtIO NICs. This VM serves around 1Gbps of traffic with thousands of clients connecting to it. When I do a packet loss test to the IP pinned to NIC1 it varies from 3% to 10% of packet loss. When I run the same test on NIC2 the packet loss is consistently 0%. >From what I gather I may have something to do with possible lack of Multi Queu VirtIO where NIC1 is managed by a single CPU which might be hitting 100% and causing this packet loss. Looking at this reference ( https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/MQ_virtio_net) I see one way to test it is start the VM with 4 queues (for example), but checking on the qemu-kvm process I don't see option present. Any way I can force it from the Engine ? This other reference ( https://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Multiqueue#Enable_MQ_feature) points to the same direction about starting the VM with queues=N Also trying to increase the TX ring buffer within the guest with ethtool -g eth0 is not possible. Oh, by the way, the Load on the VM is significantly high despite the CPU usage isn't above 50% - 60% in average. Thanks Fernando

Changing gateway ping address
by Matteo 21 Mar '17

21 Mar '17

Hi all, I need to change the gateway ping address, the one used by hosted engine setup. Is ok to edit /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf on each node, update the gateway param with the new ip address and restart the agent&broker on each node? With a blind test seems ok, but need to understand if is the right procedure. Thanks, Matteo

Hi, Got some time to spare? Join us on the oVirt project! oVirt is a feature rich server virtualization management system with advanced capabilities. It also provides a crucial venue for user and developer cooperation, and is the first truly open and comprehensive data center virtualization management initiative. If you are new to oVirt, we recommend that you visit the develop <https://www.ovirt.org/develop/> page to learn more about the project, and the working with Gerrit <https://www.ovirt.org/develop/dev-process/working-with-gerrit/> page for more about our code review system. If you haven’t worked with Gerrit before, we recommend you visit the introduction to Gerrit <https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation> page. On our community page <https://www.ovirt.org/community/> you’ll discover the many ways in which you can contribute to the project, even without programming skills. More suggestions? Below you’ll find other ways in which you can contribute to the oVirt project. Keep ‘em Fresh Like the idea of having fresh disk images of your favorite distribution in the oVirt Glance repository? You can help in two ways: First, test existing online images to ensure that they work with cloud-init. Second, create an online image and report your success to devel(a)ovirt.org. We’ll be happy to upload the images once they are ready.

How to deploy hosted-engine to the second and later host machines
by Tatsuya 21 Mar '17

21 Mar '17

Hi, I'm running oVirt 4.1.0.4-1. I'm building oVirt+GlusterFS(replica 3 Volume) configuration for testing. Each machine spec is as follows. CPU: 2core Memory: 8GB Disk: 120GB OS: CentOS7.3 Each host name is host1, host2, host3. I installed Hosted Engine successfully in host1, but I couldn't install it in host2 and host3. In version 4.0, as described below, since it is asked whether or not it is an additional host at the time of deployment, hosted_engine could be added to the second and later node without any error. *** oVirt 4.0 *** [root@host2 ~]# hosted-engine --deploy --config-append=answers.conf ...

assigned Host was not available
by Bill James 21 Mar '17

21 Mar '17

I have a hardware node that I recently upgraded from 3.6.4 to 4.1.0.4-1. It is having issues that certain VMs I cannot deploy to it because ovirt says host is not available. However that host is status up and has 14 running VMs on it. How do I tell why ovirt thinks the host is not available? Attached is output from "vdsClient -s ovirt4.test.j2noc.com getVdsStats" vdsm-4.19.4-1.el7.centos.x86_64 ovirt-engine-4.1.0.4-1.el7.centos.noarch engine.log: 2017-03-07 11:06:49,269-08 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.dal.dbbroker.auditloghandling.AuditLogDirector] (ForkJo inPool-1-worker-0) [] EVENT_ID: USER_RUN_VM_ON_NON_DEFAULT_VDS(152), Correlation ID: 81490f5b-3029-44d4-b223-df 6bb506efb3, Job ID: 76900dc9-ed9a-4fda-a17a-31825aa515c9, Call Stack: null, Custom Event ID: -1, Message: Guest billj4 started on Host ovirt7.test.j2noc.com.

WebAdmin is down, HostedEngine is up
by Logan Kuhn 20 Mar '17

20 Mar '17

Starting at 1:09am on Saturday the Hosted Engine has been rebooting because it failed it's liveliness check. This is due to the webadmin not loading. Nothing changed as far as I can tell on the engine since it's last successful reboot on Friday afternoon. The engine, dwhd and httpd are all up and do not seem to be reporting anything unusual in their respective logs. The engine can talk to the database as I can login using the credentials in /etc/ovirt-engine/engine.co nf.d/10-setup-database.conf and the logs on the postgres server are showing activity. I tried to run engine-setup but it says it's not in global maintenance even though the hosted engine hosts agree that it is. We are on version 4.0.6.3 Server, engine and agent logs are attached Regards, Logan

ovirtmgmt bridge creation fails 100% during hosted-engine 4.1 install
by Ian Neilsen 20 Mar '17

20 Mar '17

Guys Bug 1: I have run the ovirt 4.1 installation many times now and everytime through the deploy the ovirtmgmt bridge fails at ifup when used in conjunction with bonded nic's The deploy process stops when it cannot raise the bridge ifup. To fix, a systemctl restart network works and I can start deploy again. ifup will not work. 2 questions: Do you want me to raise a bug for this. I'll get my logs to a place where you can access them. Has anyone got a scrip to create the ovirtmgmt bridge? Is there anything special I need to know if I create it manually on my bonded nic's. Bug 2: During hosted deploy on second node,via gui, the ovirtmgt bridge fails to create necessary files and deletes other ifcfg files in the process. Bridge creation stops as it seems to be missing ifcfg files necessary. Again nics are bonded. manual creation is needed to fix the deploy mess. Yet to confirm this one, am about to try now. Will let you know. Systems: Centos7.3, ovirt 4.1, gluster 3.10.0 vdsm-4.19.4-1.el7.centos.x86_64 kernel 3.10.0-514.10.2.el7.x86_64 -- Ian Neilsen Mobile: 0424 379 762 Linkedin: http://au.linkedin.com/in/ianneilsen Twitter : ineilsen

Error on Node upgrade 2
by FERNANDO FREDIANI 20 Mar '17

20 Mar '17

I am not sure if another email I sent went through but has anyone got problems when upgrading a running oVirt-node-ng from 4.1.0 to 4.1.1. Is the only solution a complete reinstall of the node ? Thanks Fernando

host node non-operational
by Angel R. Gonzalez 20 Mar '17

20 Mar '17

Hello, I've installed a engine server and 2 host nodes. After install the 2 nodes I've configured a nfs domain storage in the first node. After few minutes, the second host is down and I dont put it online. The log in the engine show: >Host node2 cannot access the Storage Domain(s) nfsexport_node1 attached to the Data Center Labs. Setting Host state to Non-Operational. The nfsexport Storage Domain Format is V4, but in the /etc/nfsmount.conf Defaultproto=tcp Defaultvers=3 Nfsvers=3 Also I've added the line NFS4_SUPPORT="no" to /etc/sysconfig/nfs file The node1's iptables rules are: ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere state RELATED,ESTABLISHED ACCEPT icmp -- anywhere anywhere ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:54321 ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:54322 ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:sunrpc ACCEPT udp -- anywhere anywhere udp dpt:sunrpc ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:ssh ACCEPT udp -- anywhere anywhere udp dpt:snmp ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:websm ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:16514 ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere multiport dports rockwell-csp2 ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere multiport dports rfb:6923 ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere multiport dports 49152:49216 ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:nfs ACCEPT udp -- anywhere anywhere udp dpt:nfs ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:mountd ACCEPT udp -- anywhere anywhere udp dpt:mountd REJECT all -- anywhere anywhere reject-with icmp-host-prohibited And the output of showmount -e command in a terminal of node1 is: >/nfs/data * But the output of showmount -e node1 in a terminal of node2 is >clnt_create: RPC: Port mapper failure - Unable to receive: errno 113 (No route to host) Any help? Thanks you in advance. Ángel González

Custom iptables rules usage
by Leon Goldberg 19 Mar '17

19 Mar '17

Hey, We've been wondering whether the ability to add custom iptables rules to be deployed on hosts sees any usage. Currently custom iptable rules are stored in IPTablesConfigSiteCustom and are defaulted to an empty string. We're planning to add host firewalld configuration deployment and are looking to determine whether custom rule support should be implemented as well. Thanks, Leon

Error on Adding Host
by FERNANDO FREDIANI 19 Mar '17

19 Mar '17

Hi folks. I think I have been hit by the most annoying error you can get on oVirt. I have removed a Host from Engine, re-installed it with the latest ovirt-node-ng ISO, tried to add the freshly installed Host back to Engine and got the following error: "Command returned failure code 1 during SSH session" The host has the same FQDN as before and I have cleaned the SSH from the known_hosts file in the Engine before trying to add it on the web interface. I have also tried this process with 2 different ISO files: - ovirt-node-ng-installer-ovirt-4.1-pre-2017030911.iso - ovirt-node-ng-installer-ovirt-4.1-pre-2017031104.iso And the Engine is version 4.1.1.4-1 Have searched for this error and there are a lot of people affected but not a single solution solves it. Please give some light. Thanks Fernando

Chrome and Portal Cert
by Brett Holcomb 18 Mar '17

18 Mar '17

I'm running 3.6. version of oVirt on Centos 7.2 physical server in a hosted engine configuration environment and I keep getting the untrusted site from Chrome stable current version browser. I've retrieved the cert from https://myengine/ca.crt and saved it. I then go to Chrome and Settings->Advanced->Manage Certificates and import it to trusted authorities and check all the boxes. Chrome enters it and seems happy until I go to the site the next time. My client is Fedora 24. I have checked the oVirt docs and ignoring the ones with broken links it appears I'm following the correct procedure. I assume Google Chrome is the culprit and checking on how to enter certs into Google produces many, many different ways most that are wrong. The current version forces you to the developer mode security tab to view the cert. I've done all that and restarted Chrome and still get the insecure error. If someone has successfully gotten the oVirt cert to work in Chrome on Linux (Fedora 24) I would appreciate a post on how it was done. Thanks.
