User is not authorized, ldap OK, but no user VM
by David Smith 01 Jul '15

01 Jul '15

version 3.5.2-1.el6 using ldap authz; this piece is working OK, and verified OK. I use the "Everyone" user to provide default permissions; that includes PowerUserRole for the data center, a bunch of usertemplatebasedVMs, some VnicProfileUser, DiskProfileUser, etc. I add a new user in LDAP; and verify LDAP credentials work (ie, log in to another system that uses the same ldap server) LDAP confirmed working for *other* ovirt users-- not an LDAP issue as far as I can tell. I do *not* specifically add each LDAP user to oVirt, they're added to "groups" in LDAP, so if they have the right group, they should be able to authenticate to oVirt and use the system without me adding each user individually. In any case the narrowed down problem is this: If the user doesn't have permissions (UserRole, etc) for *any* VMs, instead of logging in and getting a blank VM list, they get "User is not authorized to perform this action." If I add that specific user to a test placeholder VM, they can log in. Once they have a VM created, I can erase their user-specific permissions to that initial test VM and everything works as expected. They are able to log in, create VMs, etc. If I remove all permissions for VMs from a user, they get this error. Expected behavior: User without any permissions to any VMs should simply get a blank VM list on login. That way they can create a VM and go from there. Thanks for any help/suggestions, David

CloudSpin is Almost back
by Donny Davis 30 Jun '15

30 Jun '15

Hey guys I know CloudSpin has been down for quite a while. Its taking me a little longer than expected to get up and running again on my new connection. Mainly the lack of ipv6 on my static connection. I am working through it. I promised some server resources to aide in processes above my level, and I am happy to report that the resources are ready. Please email me if you are interested, and we can get the ball rolling. 2x quad cores, 32gb of ram(might be able to get to 64). And 6tb of raw disk space. Dedicated for the Ovirt Project, and what you guys need it to do. This is a physical machine, and as always when I get CloudSpin back up, any VMS you might want or need. Thanks for your patience Donny D CloudSpin.me

all in one migration
by nicola.gentile.to 30 Jun '15

30 Jun '15

Good morning, I have currently a server with ovirt installed (all-in-one) and I would like to extend the structure. At the end of the work I would like that structures were composed of the following: - 1 manager (virtualized) - 2 hosts - storage Before beginning this complicated process, I would like to know if it is possible, and how, to rename the old server. I thought to do the following: - change the hostname to the old server (all-in-one) - update the dns server - install the new server manager virtualized with old hostname - add storage - add the new server as a host - expoxt the virtual machines from old server - import the virtual machines to new server - test the virtual machines on new server - shutdown old server - reinstall old server as a host What do you think? Best regards Nicola

Lower CPU for specific VMs
by Ian Fraser 29 Jun '15

29 Jun '15

Hi, How do I set the CPU for a particular VM to be a lower family than the cluster is set to? The problem I am having is that In order to install a Windows 10 VM to run on my oVirt lab that uses Sandybridge CPUs I am having to change the cluster CPU family to Intel Westmere Family before I launch the Windows 10 VM otherwise it will throw a SYSTEM THREAD EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED. I then change the cluster's CPU family back and all is well, except I would rather not have to do that. Seemingly a known problem: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/695c8997-52cf-4c30-a3f7-f… Thanks for any assistance.
