[Users] CfP: Virtualisation and IaaS DevRoom at FOSDEM'14
by Itamar Heim 20 Nov '13

20 Nov '13

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/fosdem14-virt-and-iaas-devroom Call for Participation The scope for this devroom is open source, openly-developed projects in the areas of virtualisation and IaaS type clouds, ranging from low level to data center, up to cloud management platforms and cloud resource orchestration. Sessions should always target a developer audience. Bonus points for collaborative sessions that would be appealing to developers from multiple projects. We are particularly interested in the following themes: - low level virtualisation aspects - new features in classic and container-based virtualisation technologies - new use cases for virtualisation, such as virtualisation in mobile, automotive and embedded in general - other resource virtualisation technologies: networking, storage, … - deep technical dives into specific IaaS or virtualisation management projects features - relationship between IaaS projects and specific dependencies (not just virtualisation) - integration and development leveraging solutions from multiple projects Important dates Submission deadline: Sunday, December 1st, 2013 Acceptance notifications: Sunday, December 15th, 2013 Final schedule announcement: Friday January 10th, 2014 Devroom @ FOSDEM'14: February 1st & 2nd, 2014 Practical Submissions should be 40 minutes, and consist of a 30 minute presentation with 10 minutes of Q&A or 40 minutes of discussions (e.g., requests for feedback, open discussions, etc.). Interactivity is encouraged, but optional. Talks are in English only. We do not provide travel assistance or reimbursement of travel expenses for accepted speakers. Submissions should be made via the FOSDEM submission page at https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM14 : - If necessary, create a Pentabarf account and activate it - In the “Person” section, provide First name, Last name (in the “General” tab), Email (in the “Contact” tab) and Bio (“Abstract” field in the “Description” tab) - Submit a proposal by clicking on “Create event" - Important! Select the "Virtualisation and IaaS" track (on the “General” tab) - Provide the title of your talk (“Event title” in the “General” tab) - Provide a 250-word description of the subject of the talk and the intended audience (in the “Abstract” field of the “Description” tab) - Provide a rough outline of the talk or goals of the session (a short list of bullet points covering topics that will be discussed) in the “Full description” field in the “Description” tab Contact For questions w.r.t. the Virtualisation and IaaS DevRoom at FOSDEM'14, please contact the organizers via fosdem14-virt-and-iaas-devroom(a)googlegroups.com (or via https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/fosdem14-virt-and-iaas-devroom)

I saw that openldap is now listed as a provider when invoking engine-manage-domains. I'm eager to find more information about this. Does anyone know if there is any updated documentation floating around somewhere ? Found this: http://www.ovirt.org/LDAP_Quick_Start But the article seem only half-finished. Rgds Jonas

[Users] Fence-virt support
by Sander Grendelman 18 Nov '13

18 Nov '13

I'm currently building a ovirt test-environment using nested virtualization on libvirt/kvm. For the most part this works great. However, I can't configure fencing/power management because only hardware BMC's/fencing devices are supported. Is this something that could/should be included in a future oVirt version? Or is there another option/workaround to test power management?

Hi, we're going to branch and build oVirt 3.3.2 beta on Nov 27th. A bug tracker is available at [1] and it shows only 2 bugs blocking the release: Bug 1029792 - VDSM does not report the qemu version in capabilities, if qemu-kvm-rhev is used Bug 1029885 - cloud-init testcase does not work in engine 3.3.1 The following is a list of the bugs still open with target 3.3.2 or 3.3: Whiteboard Bug ID Summary 991267 [RFE] Add TUI information to log file. infra 987982 When adding a host through the REST API, the error message says that "rootPassword" is required, but ... infra 1017267 Plaintext user passwords in async_tasks database infra 1020344 Power Managent with cisco_ucs problem infra 1009899 exportDbSchema scripts generates output file with wrong name infra 1029792 VDSM does not report the qemu version in capabilities, if qemu-kvm-rhev is used integration 1026933 pre-populate ISO domain with virtio-win ISO integration 1026930 Package virtio-win and put it in ovirt repositories integration 1030437 RFE: Configuration of email notifications integration 1022440 AIO - configure the AIO host to be a gluster cluster/host integration 902979 ovirt-live - firefox doesn't trust the installed engine integration 1021805 oVirt Live - use motd to show the admin password network 988002 [oVirt] [network] Add button shouldn't appear on specific network network 987916 [oVirt] [provider] Dialog doesn't update unless focus lost network 987999 [oVirt] [provider] Add button shouldn't appear on specific provider network 906313 [oVirt-webadmin] [setupNetworks] "No valid Operation for <network_name> and Unassigned Logical Networks panel" network 1023722 [oVirt-webadmin][network] Network roles in cluster management should be radio buttons network 997197 Some AppErrors messages are grammatically incorrect (singular vs plural) storage 1016118 async between masterVersion : can't connect to StoragePool storage 987917 [oVirt] [glance] API version not specified in provider dialog storage 1029069 Live storage migration snapshot removal fails, probably due to unexpected qemu-img output ux 906394 [oVirt-webadmin] [network] Loading animation in network main tab 'hosts' and 'vms' subtab is stuck on first view... virt 1007940 Cannot clone from snapshot while using GlusterFS as POSIX Storage Domain Please set the target to 3.3.2 and add the bug to the tracker if you think that 3.3.2 should not be released without it fixed. Please also update the target to 3.3.3 or any next release for bugs that won't be in 3.3.2: it will ease gathering the blocking bugs for next releases.

[Users] Fencing virtual machines
by Nicolas Ecarnot 18 Nov '13

18 Nov '13

Hi, In the case I want to setup a virtual cluster amongst many virtual machines, and this virtual cluster needs to fence some VM, what is the best way to achieve this? I guess this has to use something like vdsClient to "unplug" the VM, but I found it hard to find any more information about this. -- Nicolas Ecarnot

(if you see a behavior change in ovirt, you an also ask/cc on users(a)ovirt.org) in 3.0 we only allowed admin access to the API. in 3.1 we added user level access. main difference is users only get entities they have permissions with User Role on. an user with admin role can ask to get 'all', or just "me as a user" - all VMs which that admin has a User Role to. to not break api backward compatibility, default mode of the API remained 'admin mode', so you need to pass to the API "filter=true" to behave as a user. (we don't like this, and will try to come up with a better solution). i assume from Christophe next reply govirt (sensibly, as its geared for user access) default to user mode api. so you have two options - move to admin mode in govirt, or easier (and probably more consistent if you are aiming your solution for users rather than admins), give admin@internal a UserRole on the VMs, not an Admin Role.

[Users] Info on snapshot removal operations and final disk format
by Gianluca Cecchi 17 Nov '13

17 Nov '13

Hello, I'm on oVirt 3.2.3-1 on a Fedora 18 all-in-one test server. I have a Windows XP VM that has a disk in qcow2 format and has a snapshot on it. When I delete the snapshot I see, from the commands intercepted, that the final effect is to have a raw disk (aka preallocated) .... is this correct and always true? Does this mean that even if I create a VM with thin provisioned disks, as soon as I take at least one snapshot and I then delete it I only have raw disks? Or am I missing anything?

Without knowing how the disks are split among the controllers, I don't want to make any assumptions about how shared it actually is, since it may be half and half with no multipathing. While a multi-controller DAS array *may* be shared storage, it may not be. Moreover, I have no idea whether VDSM looks at by-path, by-bus, dm-*, or otherwise, and there are no guarantees that a SAS disk will present like a FC LUN (by-path/pci...-fc-$wwn...), whereas OCFS POSIXFS is assured to work, albeit with a more complex setup and another intermediary layer.

The array you have is the effective equivalent of attaching additional hard drives directly to your computer. It is not necessarily faster than iSCSI or Fiber Channel; almost any nearline storage these days will be SAS, almost all the SANs in production, and most of the tiered storage as well (because SAS supports SATA drives). I'm not even sure if NetApp uses FC-AL drives in their arrays anymore. I think they're all SAS, but don't quote me on that. What differentiates a SAN (iSCSI or Fiber Channel) from a NAS is that a SAN presents raw devices over a fabric or switched medium rather than point-to-point (point-to-point Fiber Channel still happens, but it's easier to assume that it doesn't for the sake of argument). A NAS presents network file systems (CIFS, GlusterFS, Lustre, NFS, Ceph, whatever), though this also gets complicated when you start talking about distributed clustered network file systems. Anyway, what you have is neither of these. It's directly-attached storage. It may work, but it's an unsupported configuration, and is only shared storage in the sense that it has multiple controllers. If I were going to configure it for oVirt, I would: Attach it to a 3rd server and export iSCSI LUNs from it Attach it to a 3rd server and export NFS from it Attach it to multiple CentOS/Fedora servers, configure clustering (so you get fencing, a DLM, and the other requisites of a clustered filesystem), and use raw cLVM block devices or GFS2/OCFS filesystems as POSIXFS storage for oVirt.

[Users] Low quality of el6 vdsm rpms
by Patrick Hurrelmann 16 Nov '13

16 Nov '13

Hi all, sorry for this rant, but... I now tried several times to test the beta 3.3.1 rpms, but they can't even be installed in the most times. One time it required a future selinux-policy, although the needed selinux fix was delivered in a much lower version. Now the rpms have broken requirements. It requires "hostname" instead of "/bin/hostname". This broken requirement is not included in the vdsm 3.3 branch, so I wonder where it comes from? Anyway. So I proceeded and tried to build vdsm myself once again. Currently the build fails with (but worked fine some days ago): /usr/bin/pep8 --exclude="config.py,constants.py" --filename '*.py,*.py.in' \ client lib/cpopen/*.py lib/vdsm/*.py lib/vdsm/*.py.in tests vds_bootstrap vdsm-tool vdsm/*.py vdsm/*.py.in vdsm/netconf vdsm/sos/vdsm.py.in vdsm/storage vdsm/vdsm vdsm_api vdsm_hooks vdsm_reg vdsm/storage/imageRepository/formatConverter.py:280:29: E128 continuation line under-indented for visual indent - How can the quality of the vdsm builds be increased? It is frustrating to spend time on testing and then the hosts cannot even be installed to broken vdsm rpms. - How are the builds prepared? Is there a Jenkins job that prepares "stable" rpms in addition to the nightly job? Or is this totally handcrafted? - How can it be that the rpm spec differs between the 3.3 branch and released rpms? What is the source/branch for el6 vdsm rpms? Maybe I'm just tracking on the wrong source tree...

Re: [Users] from irc
by Bob Doolittle 15 Nov '13

Hi, I had a question on IRC regarding sysprep/sealing of Windows VMs and use in Pools. Basically, if you follow the Quick Start Guide, it says to seal the VM and shut it down before making the Template. My problem with this is that when you start a VM from the Pool, it takes forever to unseal - i.e. to repersonalize itself. That's a bad experience from a VDI perspective - you want the user to get a desktop they can start using ASAP. Itamar responded to me directly via e-mail: > bobdrad: on your question of windows VMs from pool - you can start > them once with an admin for the sysprep to happen, then shut them down. > admin launch of VMs doesn't create a stateless snapshot and > manipulates the VM itself. This raises some questions. I'd love to understand this better. He's asked me to cross this conversation onto the Users list now. 1. My understanding is that a Pool clones VMs on demand from a template. So how does the admin "launch" the template? I thought the only way to exercise a pool is from the User Portal. Is it sufficient to do that as Admin? I thought the persistence only came when launching a VM from the Admin Portal. 2. My understanding of "sealing" a system is that this depersonalizes it - e.g. removes hostname, prepares network for reinitialization, etc. And that the next time the system boots up it re-personalizes. So if one were to restart it, even as admin, this would reverse the sealing process, which would seem to make sealing in the first place pointless. What am I missing? At the moment I don't see the point of sealing a VM before putting it into the Pool (assuming you're using DHCP, anyway). What happens if you don't? Thanks, Bob P.S. I note the behavior of Fedora vs RHEL 6 is quite different in this regard. If you follow the "sealing" process on the Quick Start page for Fedora it seems to have no visible effect, but on RHEL 6 it puts you through a re-personalization dialog which is rather extensive (and again, not really suitable for VDI use).

Hello, based on http://www.ovirt.org/Trusted_compute_pools_deployment#Provision_White_List_… The commands of kind: bash_oat_cert .. bash oat_oem ... are to be run on hypervisor host side, correct? Where can I find these packages for CentOS 6? Thanks in advance Gianluca PS: I took the time to correct a typo in client section where it said "Yum Install oat server package from fedora19 repository" instead of "Yum Install oat client package from fedora19 repository"

[Users] Change data domain
by Juan Pablo Lorier 15 Nov '13

Hi, I'm changing the master domain to a new added one. I've placed the old in maintenance and ovirt made the change of master to the new one. The thing is that now that I have both active, I get this error: Sync Error on Master Domain between Host Dell2 and oVirt Engine. Domain: IBM3300 is marked as Master in oVirt Engine database but not on the Storage side. Please consult with Support on how to fix this issue. How can I fix this? Another thing, is there a way of having two iscsi data domains mirrored? To have a sort of high availability in the data domains. Regards,

[Users] Problems with first time oVirt installation
by Lindsay Mathieson 15 Nov '13

15 Nov '13

Hi all - trying to evaluate ovirt and having real problems with getting a self contained install running. I've followed the Quickstart guide at: http://www.ovirt.org/Download word for word using a fresh CentOS 6.4 install with all updates applied on a Intel based PC with 8GB Ram and two nics. It seems to all go well but when I get into the web interface, none of the storage is initially visible, neither the ISO_DOMAIN nor the local storage. Oddly if I refresh the browser (firefox & chrome) while on the storage page the ISO_DOMAIN appears but can't be attached to a datacenter - "None Available" If I go into the host page the host is there but not finished configuring. The network setup is unfinished, the management interface is not attached to a NIC. If I attach it to the active nic (NIC 0) it throws an exception on Save. I can attach it to nic 1 but its not actually hooked up to anything. I have successfully installed and run proxmox on this pc, so don;t think there are hardware problems. On a related note - I've also been trying to test ovirt at home, which means running it on KVM (setup with virt-manager). CentOS installs fine but on reboot just goes to a black screen with the hour glass. If anyone has suggestions on how to get past that it would help my test config a lot :) Host machine is Kubuntu 13.10. Thanks, -- Lindsay

[Users] Gluster RDMA support
by Murphy-Olson, Daniel E. 15 Nov '13

15 Nov '13

Hi all, I'm trying to configure a gluster storage pool over RDMA protocol. I created the volume by hand, because RDMA is disabled in the volume creation interface due to a patch ~18 months ago. After the manual creation of the volume, it displays bot protocols as being configured.. However, in the XML configuration that is generated for libvirt, ?protocol=rdma is not appended to the path. Is there some template I can edit to add that, or is it buried in the code somewhere? I cannot seem to find where the vsdm clients are getting the url for the gluster volume. Thanks! ---- Daniel Murphy-Olson Systems Administrator Mathematics & Computer Science Division Argonne National Laboratory 630-252-0055

[Users] Failed to start JBoss AS
by Bob Doolittle 15 Nov '13

15 Nov '13

Hi, I had a working engine, using 3.3.0 on Fedora 19. I rebooted my engine, and JBoss AS won't come back up. I get the attached errors from server.log. Has anyone seen this before? Any suggestions on how to recover? How I got here: I had a working Engine (mach1 F19) and Host (mach2 F19), but needed to play some musical chairs with my hardware to utilize a 3rd machine (mach3 RH6). My goal is to have mach2 become Engine, and mach3 Host. I did the following: 1. Created an NFS share on mach3, and used it as NFS Export Storage from mach2. 2. Exported my VMs and templates to the Export storage. 3. Removed mach2 from my Datacenter 4. Shut down mach1 5. Installed fresh F19 on mach2 (my old host), and installed Engine 3.3.0 on it 6. Added mach3 as Host 7. Imported my VMs and Templates from the Export Storage At this point all looked well. I rebooted mach2, but it won't come back up. I'd appreciate any insight. Thanks, Bob

Snapshot deletion on preallocated FC domain disks is broken in ovirt-stable/3.3 Both online and offline snapshot deletion leads to an error and the snapshot state is changed to "BROKEN". When I apply the patch at http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/19983/ from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1015071 snapshot deletion works again. Can/will this patch be backported to ovirt-stable?

[Users] Custom settings for Kernel Same-page Merging (KSM)?
by Frank Wall 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

Hi, recently I've noticed that ksmd is using quite a lot CPU on my oVirt node. While I have plenty RAM, my CPU is way slow. Thus ksmd is eating up the most limited ressource here. Is it supported to use custom settings for ksmd? I've noticed that it is handled by MoM: /etc/vdsm/mom.d/03-ksm.policy. May I just change some settings here, or is there a tuning parameter in oVirt engine? Couldn't find a matching one with engine-config. I'd like to use a higher value for sleep_millisecs to reduce CPU usage (with the possible side effect of higher RAM usage). Thanks - Frank

[Users] Installing Windows VMs
by Bob Doolittle 14 Nov '13

In the QuickStart Guide, it implies that you should find a virtual floppy image for virtio-win in the ISO_DOMAIN. Or at least I can find no information on where to find/populate that image before the Guide shows its use. However, in my default 3.3 installation, there was nothing pre-populated in my ISO_DOMAIN. Should there have been? Regards, Bob

Re: [Users] Default route on hosts
by Assaf Muller 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

Can users outside of the hosts' networks reach the VMs in the hosts? If you use netstat -rn it is expected that the gateway will be 0.0.0.0, as ifcfg-ovirtmgmt has DEFROUTE=yes and ifcfg-public has DEFROUTE=no, then ovirtmgmt's 'gateway' (0.0.0.0) will be determined as the host's default gateway. However with the new multiple gateways feature we configure source routing to make sure that traffic that comes (from the outside) in the public network's device will return the way it came in. You can use 'ip rule' to see the rules VDSM configures. It creates two rules and a routing table per device. You can use 'ip route show table %s' on each table, where the IDs can be obtained by 'ip rule'. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Geddings" <chris.geddings(a)duke.edu> To: "Assaf Muller" <amuller(a)redhat.com> Sent: Tuesday, November 12, 2013 2:26:40 PM Subject: Re: [Users] Default route on hosts On Nov 12, 2013, at 3:32 AM, Assaf Muller <amuller(a)redhat.com> wrote: > oVirt 3.3 introduced a feature called multiple gateways which may assist you.

Now, my management network has a gateway of 0.0.0.0, as it is a completely simple network, so that may be part of the problem. I'm not sure the impact of a 0.0.0.0 as a gateway. I'm not sure how to poke at this further to figure out where the breakage is. Routing looks like it has gotten a little more complex, and I'm still operating with 'netstat -rn' and 'route add foo' type commands. --Chris

[Users] Bug: adding LocalStorage Data Centers
by Sven Kieske 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

Hi, affected version: oVirt 3.3 (ManagementNode) how to reproduce: setup 2 data centers with local storage, add data master storage domains to these 2 data centers add another data center with local storage, try to add another master storage domain. expected result: the data domain gets created just like the 2 before actual result: ovirt management complains that the data domain already exists, which is not true. This behaviour was introduced with version 3.3, we didn't see this in version 3.2 This is regardless of node versions. I would at first like to know if anybody can reproduce this? If this is the case I would create a bugzilla entry. Regards Sven

[Users] Failed to configure management network on the host

I am running oVirt Engine Version: 3.4.0-0.2.master.20131107144332.git214186b.fc18. I am having an issue adding new hosts. I do a fresh install of fc18 on the host and then try to add it into my cluster. The controller installs all packages and it looks like it's all good, but at the end I get the message "Failed to configure management network on the host" and the host goes into non operational state. I can remove the host and add it into a second oVirt environment that I am running. This other environment is runningoVirt Engine Version: 3.2.3-1.fc18. Once I add it into that other environment, I can then remove it and successfully add it into my 3.4 environment. -- *NADA Convention & Expo*: January 24-27, 2014 - New Orleans, LA - Booth 5001 <http://www.bbb.org/south-east-florida/business-reviews/advertising-agencies…><http://www.bbb.org/south-east-florida/business-reviews/advertising-agencies…>

[Users] oVirt 3.4 planning
by Itamar Heim 13 Nov '13

13 Nov '13

To try and improve 3.4 planning over the wiki approach in 3.3, I've placed the items i collected on users list last time into a google doc[1] now, the main thing each item needs is a requirements owner, devel owner and a testing owner (well, devel owner is really needed to make it happen, but all are important). then we need an oVirt BZ for each, and for some a feature page. I also added columns indicating if the item will require an API design review and a GUI design review. this list is just the start of course for items from it to get ownership. i expect more items will be added as well, as long as they have owners, etc. the doc is public read-only, please request read-write access to be able to edit it. feel free to ask questions, etc. Thanks, Itamar [1] http://bit.ly/17qBn6F

[Users] [Bug] 3.3.1. Beta Create VM does not work with VNC / Linux VM
by Sven Kieske 12 Nov '13

12 Nov '13

Hi, we just discovered a bug in ovirt-engine 3.3.1 beta from ovirt.org repo: You can't create a VM (via webadmin) with the following options: set VM-Name select Operating System: "Other Linux", "Linux", or any Linux distro click: "Show advanced options" switch: console: protocol: from SPICE to VNC Hit "Ok" receive the following error in webadmin gui: "Error while executing action: bug1: Cannot add VM. Cannot set single display device via VNC display." (bug1 is the vm-name) workaround1: select "other os" or any windows version and the setup works with vnc workaround2: select spice as protocol I created a BZ for this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1029584 I suggest this bug as a blocker for 3.3.1. release -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Regards Sven Kieske Systemadministrator Mittwald CM Service GmbH & Co.

[Users] Live storage migration snapshot removal (fails)
by Sander Grendelman 12 Nov '13

12 Nov '13

When I move a disk (of a running vm) to a different storage pool a live snapshot ('Auto-generated for Live Storage Migration') is created. The allocation type of the virtual disk changes from "Preallocated" to "Thin Provision" with actual size > virtual size (e.g. 4GB actual, 1GB virtual). This snapshot is not removed after the storage migration is completed and cannot be removed from a running VM ( probably because live snapshot deletion is not implemented yet?). When I stop the VM and then remove the snapshot this fails and the snapshot state changes to "BROKEN". I've done some additional testing and the problem only occurs when a preallocated disk is used. Offline snapshot removal on a thin provisioned disk works (no online removal option). Is this expected behaviour? If so, I think live storage migration for preallocated disk should be disabled. Attached vdsm.log of the SPM host with the DEBUG and INFO lines removed to get it down to a manageable size.

[Users] Default route on hosts
by Assaf Muller 12 Nov '13

12 Nov '13

Hi Christopher, Your understanding of the terms is correct. A small clarification - Hosts are mostly referred to as nodes when running oVirt Node, a custom Linux distribution purposely made to be used as a host in oVirt. As for your question: DEFROUTE=yes/no in the hosts' ifcfg files control the default gateway of the host. Currently, by design, the management network's gateway (Which sounds like your management network doesn't have?) will be kept as the host's default gateway. This was done to make sure that the engine maintains connectivity to its hosts. oVirt 3.3 introduced a feature called multiple gateways which may assist you. If you configured a gateway on the public network (Either statically via oVirt or via DHCP), then all traffic into the hosts through their public network NIC will be returned via that nic, *even though* the host's default gateway is ovirtmgmt's gateway. To clarify further: The current behavior is that the host's default gateway is ovirtmgmt's gateway. This controls traffic originating from *within* the host such as communications with storage. Incoming traffic, however, such as traffic originating from users from outside of the datacenter, will be returned via the device that the traffic came in on. If that doesn't work for you, and you feel like you need to control the host's default gateway via oVirt, then please file an RFE. I can't guarantee a timeline or that it will ultimately make it in the product, but the RFE will be carefully taken into account when designing future versions. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christopher Geddings" <chris.geddings(a)duke.edu> To: users(a)ovirt.org Sent: Monday, November 11, 2013 8:40:33 PM Subject: [Users] Default route on hosts Before I ask my question, I want to make sure I'm using the right terms: engine == the system that manages the ovirt environment.

I desire to use the isolated network as the management network, and am naming the other network "public" in the web management interface.

Hi guys, sharing some updates on oVirt UI plugins feature, see below for details. Let me know if you have any questions. Vojtech ----- Forwarded Message ----- From: "Vojtech Szocs" <vszocs(a)redhat.com> To: "engine-devel" <engine-devel(a)ovirt.org> Cc: "Einav Cohen" <ecohen(a)redhat.com>, "Itamar Heim" <iheim(a)redhat.com> Sent: Thursday, November 7, 2013 11:21:21 PM Subject: oVirt UI plugins feature announcements Hello everyone, I'd like to share some important updates on oVirt UI plugins feature. First of all, UI plugins wiki [1] is finally complete. API reference (application events, API functions, API options, entity types) now includes all the details and snippets of example code. I've also added section "Why load plugins via iframe element?" explaining reasons behind this design decision. [1] http://www.ovirt.org/Features/UIPlugins You might have noticed the changes in oVirt Engine URI layout [2], these are already reflected in UI plugins wiki. For existing plugins, this means changing URLs like this: /webadmin/webadmin/plugin/ExamplePlugin/start.html to this: /ovirt-engine/webadmin/plugin/ExamplePlugin/start.html [2] http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/20473/ We're planning to merge patch "Improve UI Plugin vs. REST API integration" [http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/20404/] soon, please review the change outlined in commit message, let me know if you have any questions. Last but not least, oVirt Space Shooter (a.k.a UI plugins crash course) wiki [3] has been updated to reflect changes mentioned above.
