4.0 x 4.1
by Fernando Frediani 25 Jan '17

25 Jan '17

I am deploying a oVirt environment which will not get production data immediately. Obviously I would rather use 4.1 RC due the many changes and fixes present. Later when 4.1 becomes stable then upgrade to it. Does anyone see any problem in doing that way or would it be more advisable to start with 4.0.6 and upgrade to 4.1 stable when time comes ? My concern are the issue people related they had when upgrading from one major version to another in the past. Thanks Fernando

Connect to Hosted-Engine using ----add-console-password --password=
by Matt . 25 Jan '17

25 Jan '17

I'm figuring out how to connect to the hosted engine using virt-viewer on a client, is there any more information about this ? You set the console password but then ? on what port do we connect, and I assume we connect the normal way for normal VM's Consoles ? Any info would be nice. Thanks. Matt

How to resume hosted-engine --vm-start-paused
by Matt . 25 Jan '17

25 Jan '17

I'm trying to resume a pause started HostedEngine but I'm failing and I see lots of topics about some option --vm-resume being needed. "virsh resume HostedEngine" asks me for a username which is not set, so I'm wondering how to get this working. Thanks! Matt

Missing Cloud-Init parameters when creating VM from template in User Portal
by Jan Siml 25 Jan '17

25 Jan '17

Hello, we are running oVirt Engine in version 4.0.6.3-1. While preparing templates I came across the following problem. The virtual machine created with the template should be configured via Cloud-Init on initial run. The checkbox 'Use Cloud-Init/Sysprep' is ticked and the necessary fields for provisioning via Cloud-Init are filled. When viewing/editing the template in Administration Portal and User Portal the checkbox is still ticked and fields are filled, also when creating a VM via 'VM/ New VM' inside Administration Portal. But not when a VM is created via 'VM/ New VM' inside User Portal. Checkbox is unticked and when it is activated all fields are unfilled. Is this a bug or a feature? Seems to unrelated to permissions of the user who creates the VM, because we can reproduce it even with Super User permissions. Kind regards Jan

oVIRT / GlusterFS / Data (HA)
by Devin Acosta 24 Jan '17

24 Jan '17

I have created an oVIRT 4.0.6 Cluster, it has 2 Compute nodes, and 3 Dedicated Gluster nodes. The Gluster nodes are configured correctly and they have the replica set to 3. I'm trying to figure out when I go to attach the Data (Master) domain to the oVIRT manager what is the best method to do so in the configuration? I initially set the mount point to be like: gluster01-int:/data, then set in the mount options "backup-volfile-servers=gluster02-int:/data,gluster03-int:/data", so I understand that will choose another host if the 1st one is down but if i was to reboot the 1st Gluster node would that provide HA for my Data domain? I also configured ctdb with a floating-ip address that floats between all 3 Gluster nodes, and I am wondering if I should be pointing the mount to that VIP? What is the best solution with dealing with Gluster and keeping your mount HA? -- Devin Acosta Red Hat Certified Architect, LinuxStack 602-354-1220 || devin(a)linuxguru.co

oVirt installs 3.6 repos for 4.0 compat cluster
by James 24 Jan '17

24 Jan '17

Hi guys, I'm trying to servers to a new oVirt 4.0 cluster. I've upgraded the engine (not hosted, standalone) to version 4.0.6.3 and run engine-setup and everything seemed to go fine. When reinstalling oVirt on a host after removing it from the 3.6 compat cluster into a 4.0 compat cluster causes issues when reinstalling and setting up the management network for some reason. I haven't been able to track this issue down fully yet. Whats weird is that even when a fresh new host is installed and added to the grid for some reason oVirt installs the repos for oVirt 3.6 on the host. I'm sure this is done by oVirt itself since they aren't there before I install the host and we don't manage these outside of that. It also just stalls at "Activating" the host and I can't do anything with them after that. Shouldn't it be installing version 4.0 for this cluster? I've triple checked its set to version 4.0 compatibility and the data center its in is also set to this level. Unsure what logs I can provide but any help would be greatly appreciated! Cheers, James

Updated Invitation: Next-generation Node package persistence for oVirt 4.1 @ Thu Jan 26, 2017 9am - 10am (MST) (users@ovirt.org)
by rbarry＠redhat.com 24 Jan '17

24 Jan '17

This event has been changed. Title: Next-generation Node package persistence for oVirt 4.1 oVirt Node is a composed hypervisor image which can be used to provision virtualization hosts for use with oVirt out of the box, with no additional package installation necessary. oVirt Node is upgraded via yum in an A/B fashion, but the installation of a completely new image means that packages which have been installed on a previous version of the hypervisor were lost on upgrades, or required reinstallation. With oVIrt 4.1, oVirt Node will cache and reinstall packages installed with yum or dnf onto the new image, ensuring that customizations made by users or administrators are kept. The advantages of keeping packages across upgrades: - ability to persistently modify oVirt Node with additions for tooling or support - removes the need to build a brand-new image with a modified kickstart to modify oVirt Node - simplified management Session outline: - Next-generation oVirt Node overview - yum API overview - oVIrt Node integration with yum/dnf to persist RPMs across upgrades Session link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAznsxvZpuk Feature Page: https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/node/node-next-pe… When: Thu Jan 26, 2017 9am – 10am Mountain Time - Arizona (changed) Where: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpAVkBEDdVg Calendar: users(a)ovirt.org Who: * rbarry(a)redhat.com - organizer * users(a)ovirt.org * devel(a)ovirt.org Event details: https://www.google.com/calendar/event?action=VIEW&eid=dWxlaW1rMmI0MHJybHZsO… Invitation from Google Calendar: https://www.google.com/calendar/ You are receiving this courtesy email at the account users(a)ovirt.org because you are an attendee of this event.
