[Users] inconsistent sign-on, inacurate cpu % -- new to ovirt, new installation, new vm, first vm
by Jeff Clay 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

I've noticed something inconsistent. When viewing the the console using virtviewer on windows, I open the .vv file and sometimes the display connection prompts me for a password, no user name, only password. Regardless of what password I enter, it isn't accepted. Sometimes, I don't get prompted for a password at all. Keep in mind, this is the only VM on this machine, it's not like I'm having different issues on different machines. Also, if it's relevant, I have SSO disabled for this VM. Another issue, this vm has Windows 7 32-bit installed, configured for 2gb RAM, 1 socket 2 cores, yet when doing windows updates, the system resources shows the processor at constantly peaking to 100% on both graphs (both cores); yet, the CPU utilization in the ovirt webui doesn't go above 50%, almost like 50% = 100%. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. I'm sure I'm going to be bugging everyone with a lot of questions as I dig further into this.

Hi Dan, Thank you for your reply! I have installed that hook and removed it again because I was not sure. Following the mailinglist it looks like it's globally doable, so it's actually not ? I understand that but what would be the right steps than ? For an example when you have a vm with 4 nics ?

[Users] Unable to log into user portal with user account
by Jeff Clay 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

I have attached an AD domain. I can log in to the admin and user portals with the credentials used to add the domain. I made a new user on the AD for testing. I have added BuiltIn\Users and Domain\Users to the UserRole in Ovirt. When I try to log in to the UserPortal with a regular user account I get the error that the user isn't authorized to perform the action.

[Users] scheduling storage migration
by Jorick Astrego 06 Apr '14

06 Apr '14

Hi, I don't know if it's possible yet but can we schedule the (live) storage migration? It would be awesome to have for example some VM data on SSD storage that migrates to HDD storage when the VM is shutdown. Or have VM's with high IO load during specific times migrate to a high IO storage domain during these hours. I realize it will generate extra load while migrating but this can be planned for. Maybe the guys from glusterfs could enable storage migration on their side so the migration can execute on the storage server triggered by ovirt, that would be even better performance wise. Kind regards, Jorick Astrego

[Users] Upgrading dwh and reports from 3.3.4 to 3.4.0?

Hello, on F19 I upgraded engine from 3..3.4 to 3.4.0. Then yum update ovirt-engine-dwh ovirt-engine-reports ...

But now I see I have neither ovirt-engine-dwh-setup nor ovirt-engine-reports.setup as in 3.3.4... What to do? I only see this thread http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2014-March/022205.html and other infos that suggests for new installation engine-setup should care about dwh too (but I don't know for reports...) What about pre-existing 3.3.4 installations with dwh and reports?

[Users] It is Ok using OVIRT in production environment ?
by tristano82＠libero.it 06 Apr '14

06 Apr '14

Hello, actually we have a cluster of RHEV nodes, and other one cluster with vmware nodes. I'm so excited about the works that community are doing with ovirt, but all of my sysadmin said me that cannot be used in production, because there is not a very stable release and because they need to spend too much time in upgrading node and manager. What do you think? Thanks Marco

[Users] Force certain VMs to be on different hosts

This message is in MIME format. --=_6jyb8zehjukgok Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; DelSp="Yes"; format="flowed" Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Is there a way to have certain VMs to be on different hosts? (assuming there are enough hosts) IE. I have a db cluster of 3 VMs. I would like each one to always be on different hosts. That way if a host goes down my db cluster is still happy while migration happens. Or if migration fails I am still good.
