Storage network question
by Alan Murrell 31 Jul '15

31 Jul '15

If I am using a NIC on my host on the storage network to access storage (NFS, iSCSI, Gluster, etc.), is there any issue with allowing VMs to be assigned to it so they can access the same storage network? (the VMs would have a NIC added specifically for this, of course) Basically, unlike in VMware and Hyper-V, in oVirt can the same NIC be used for host and VM access to the storage network? Thanks! :-) -Alan

Dropping Fedora 21 engine builds on master / 3.6 on July 31
by Sandro Bonazzola 30 Jul '15

30 Jul '15

Hi, since Fedora 21 is not going to be officially supported in 3.6 / master, in order to save resources for our CI systems we're going to drop builds for engine related packages starting from July 31. You may still continue developing engine on Fedora 21 by manually building required dependencies or you may upgrade to Fedora 22 and receive nightly builds by CI system. Note that VDSM related projects will still continue to be built in CI as long as VDSM team supports it. Thanks -- Sandro Bonazzola Better technology. Faster innovation.

Ovirt and Gluster
by John Gardeniers 30 Jul '15

30 Jul '15

Hi All, What information is available regarding the compatibility of Ovirt and Gluster? Is there a combination known to be stable and if so, what are the relevant versions? I am asking with respect to a production system, not an experimental lab environment. regards, John

Neutron Appliance questions
by Robert Story 29 Jul '15

29 Jul '15

--Sig_/VGMKTYdpfCl66PXM9RKH.s2 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello, I have an oVirt 3.5.x install on CentOS 7.1, and I'm trying to wrap my head around how to use the Neutron appliance. In the video demo, two hosts attach the neutron network to their eth1 interfaces, and their VMs can communicate with each other. But the demo doesn't go on to show how to connect those VMs to the internet with floating IPs. In the OpenStack Neutron videos I've watched on youtube, the common basic configuration seems to be a single 'network node' that connects to the public and private networks and routes to the 'compute nodes', which aren't connected to the public network. With the oVirt/Neutron integration, it seems like all hosts are both 'network' and 'compute' nodes, meaning that they need to be connected to the public network. Is that right, or am I missing some fundamental concept? Is it possible to designate 1 or 2 hosts of a cluster (with public network access) for the neutron appliance, while the remaining hosts only have private network access + floating IPs for VMs?

Invitation: [3.6 deep dive] moVirt - Android mobile client for oVirt @ Wed Aug 12, 2015 14:00 - 15:00 (red hat)
by Michal Skrivanek 29 Jul '15

29 Jul '15

You have been invited to the following event. Title: [3.6 deep dive] moVirt - Android mobile client for oVirt scheduled 2015-08-12 12:00pm GMT Abstract: moVirt is a mobile (android) client for the oVirt. It is not trying to be a simplified version of webadmin/userportal but instead is aiming to be a handy companion application making use of the device itself. It has three main features: (1) monitoring and notifications (making use of the fact that the mobile deviec is always with us), (2) bridging the physical world of servers with virtual world of oVirt using techniques of augmented reality and (3) dashboard (making use of the nice big screens of today's devices). In this session, the moVirt project will be presented and the future plans will be uncovered. hangout link: https://plus.google.com/events/c0mjammhafagaqe4f2marv7po3k youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6w9t1wxNKBE project page: https://github.com/matobet/movirt When: Wed Aug 12, 2015 14:00 - 15:00 Central European Time - Prague Where: https://plus.google.com/events/c0mjammhafagaqe4f2marv7po3k Calendar: red hat Who: * Michal Skrivanek - organizer * devel(a)ovirt.org * Itamar Heim * users(a)ovirt.org * Barak Azulay Event details: https://www.google.com/calendar/event?action=VIEW&eid=ZnVyMWgybnE1cGdjOTlrO… 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.

Question about manual pools and statefulness
by Cristian Mammoli 29 Jul '15

29 Jul '15

Hi, as far as I understand Manual Pools should be "stateful" as long as the admin does not return the vm to the pool (removing the permissions). In my test lab I did the following: Created Windows template Sysprep and Shutdown Configured a manual pool with the above template Configure "Initial run" with domain membership and so on Assigned permissions to the pool Logged in in the user portal and launched my pool The vm starts up but in the admin portal I see the vm has a Stateless snapshot (read-only) "VM TestPoolMan-1 was restarted on Host kvm02 as stateless" Then in the user portal I shut down the vm and the stateless snapshot is removed "VM TestPoolMan-1 is down. Exit message: User shut down from within the guest" I powered up it again and now it is stateful (no snapshot) "VM TestPoolMan-1 was started by c.mammoli(a)apra.it (Host: kvm02)." So it's like the first time a user starts a vm in a manual pool it is stateless and from the second start it becomes stateful...
