[Users] How to See Ovirt Console From a Remote Windows Host
by Jon Forrest 13 Oct '14

13 Oct '14

I know that this is simple for some of you, but I also know from Googling around that lots of people have had trouble seeing their ovirt console from a remote Windows host. Below I describe what finally worked for me. I hope this helps somebody avoid wasting as much time as I did today. I'm a fairly experienced VMWare user who's learning ovirt. I just installed an all-in-one ovirt server and copied a CentOS 6.5 iso into it. I then tried to boot a new VM but soon learned that console access is different in ovirt than on VMWare. I then spent over an hour trying the various documented ways to view a remote console using Spice on my Windows 7 desktop. I even tried using a Linux VM to see if the Firefox plugin for Spice would work. Nothing. What finally worked was installing the virt-viewer Windows client (http://virt-manager.org/download/) Then, I opened the ovirt Administration Portal in Firefox running on my Windows 7 desktop. I created a new VM and configured it the way I wanted. Then, from the "Virtual Machines" tab, I started the new VM. Pretty soon the little console icon turned green so I clicked on it. I got the prompt from Firefox asking me what app I wanted to associate with the ".vv" URL that opened when I clicked on the console icon. I browsed around and selected \Program Files\VirtViewer\bin\remote-viewer.exe which is from the virt-viewer client package I installed above. I told Firefox to always use this app for this kind of file. This works great! I was able to boot the CentOS system and install it with no problems. Good luck! Jon Forrest

Host installation failed. Command returned failure code 1 during ssh session
by Ryan Nix 13 Oct '14

13 Oct '14

Hi, I'm trying to use oVirt 3.4 to manage a simple Gluster 3.5.2 node setup. However, I can't seem to add either node (there are only two). I keep getting the following in the log: Host installation failed. Command returned failure code 1 during ssh session Redhat lists the answer on their customer portal page, however, I can't see the answer unless I purchase RHEL. Is anyone familiar with this error? https://access.redhat.com/solutions/514633 Thanks! Ryan

shortcut keys
by Fernando Fuentes 13 Oct '14

13 Oct '14

Team, New here to the list... Been using ovirt for some time now.... I just updated from 3.3.5 to 3.4.1. We have Windows 7 Guest and use putty to connect to our DB System. We use specific hot keys set in our termcap, etc... To be straight to the point... on oVirt branch 3.3.XX the hotkeys "Shift + F8" & "Shift + F9" where capture by our terminals and where been read correctly... I just updated oVirt to 3.4.1 and all went fine EXCEPT =] That now those hotkeys are no longer working... Running putty to our DB server via ssh and than running the command "read" does nothing... It reads all hotkeys and key combinations from F1 to F12 and Shift F1 to F7 and skips F8 and F9... What changed on oVirt 3.4.1 that I can no longer use this hotkeys? I also try to use them on windows and they are just not coming though at all... It seems to me that spice is catching the key sequence and capturing it before delivering it to the guest.... My data center/cluster runs on Centos 6.5 x86_64 All have 96GB of RAM and all have the same CPU Family... My ovirt manager runs as well on Centos 6.5 x86_64 on a different hosts that runs luci/kvm for HA clustering. Any ideas? -- Fernando Fuentes Technical Lead & Systems Administrator Email: ffuentes(a)aasteel.com American Alloy Steel, Inc.

Custom Cloud-Init script only partially executing
by Chris Routh 13 Oct '14

13 Oct '14

I'm trying to get the custom cloud-init script section in my site to run. My goal is to have the VM run 'yum update', add the PuppetLabs repository, and then install the latest puppet agent, and join it to Puppet. Following the docs for oVirt and Cloud-Init I have this: BEGIN SCRIPT ======================= yum_repos: # The name of the repository puppetlabs-release: baseurl: http://yum.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-el-6.noarch.rpm enabled: true failovermethod: priority gpgcheck: true gpgkey: file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-puppetlabs name: Puppet Labs repository for Enterprise Linux 6 # Upgrade the instance on first boot package_upgrade: true # Install additional packages on first boot packages: - puppet # Automatically setup and run puppetd puppet: conf: agent: server: "puppet.example.com" certname: "%f" ca_cert: | -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- < My Cert > -----END CERTIFICATE----- ======================= END SCRIPT However what I end up with from this is: - No Yum update - No added repository - Puppet gets installed from the default repos - No attempt to join According to the cloud-init docs my code is correct, however oVirt is not respecting anything, with the sole exception being the 'packages:' argument. Can someone please explain? Also, I have combed the script and ensured that the indentation was 4 spaces, and not tabs. I noted that previous users in this mailing list have had that issue before.

Failed to change disk (CD) in VM
by Nathan Llaneza 12 Oct '14

12 Oct '14

Hello All, I am testing out oVirt 3.5 rc5 and their appears to be a problem when I try to change CDs on a live VM. I get the error message "Error while executing action Change CD: Internal Engine Error.". This is a very basic setup. I pushed through the engine install on a fully patched CentOS 6.5 machine; The hypervisor is CentOS 7. I have a remote ISO / NFS share. Everything else appears to be right; so I hope it is not something that I am doing... A little about the hypervisor: OS: RHEL - 7 - 0.1406.el7.centos.2.5 Kernel : 3.10.0 - 123.8.1.el7.x86_64 KVM: 1.5.3 - 60.el7_0.2 Libvirt: libvirt-1.1.1-29.el7_0.3 VDSM: vdsm-4.16.7-4.git34f961b.el7 Thanks for everything. BTW I like the new look of 3.5.
