Re: [Users] How to setup FreeBSD 8.3 Guest on oVirt 3.3
by Dresel Christopher 10 Feb '14

Sure already tried that - IDE, no Ethernet at all, everything related to VirtIO disabled - no success. Quoted from the forum: "It has nothing to do with the virtio driver. It is a more deeply rooted problem inside KVM in its emulation of CPU's over Intel chipsets in combination with *BSD amd64." As I already virtualized pfSense with an older Version of Intel Chipset (Sandy Bridge) with KVM and Hardware Virtualization I really think it's related to the newer Haswell chipset. The same configuration with an i386 ISO build works. Best Regards, Christopher -----Original Message----- From: René Koch [mailto:rkoch@linuxland.at] Sent: Donnerstag, 30.

Btw, does FreeBSD boot if you use an IDE disk and e1000 NIC (did go quickly through the proxmox forum thread and issues seem to be virtio related)? This will decrease performance for sure, but maybe it's sufficient. My Solaris vms are for compiling and Puppet module tests, so IDE and e1000 emulated devices are fine for me.

I work as a Solution Architect and my company is selling both - RHEV and oVirt consulting and support. The reason for doing both is, that we want to give users a choice which solution fits better. The main benefits (in my opinion) of RHEV are: - Support with SLAs Red Hat provides support for RHEV with service levels. For oVirt you have to wait until someone of the developers or community members helps you on the mailing list or in IRC (or you buy support from a company with provides it). - Updates for each release for 3 years You receive for all releases (RHEV 3.1, 3.2,...) 3 years of support and updates. oVirt provides bugfix releases for the actual release (so you want get bugfix updates for 3.2 anymore, you have to upgrade to 3.3). For me this is the biggest advantage of RHEV. - Red Hat Knowledge Base Red Hat Knowledge Base is one of the best knowledge bases and it helps you greatly solving issues and gives useful tips. I use the knowledge base a lot and wouldn't want to miss it for any Red Hat product. - Stability RHEV is tested by a qa team and the releases are really stable. oVirt has newer features which are less tested. I upgrade oVirt release only to .1 releases (e.g. 3.2.x -> 3.3.1), not to .0 to avoid issues. - Guest agents Guest agents and RHEV tools are packaged for RHEL and Windows guests and are working fine. When using oVirt you miss some of the functionality of Windows guest tools or have to copy it from different locations. For other os'es it doesn't matter if using RHEV or oVirt. - Application / os support You should consider if your applications and operating systems are supported in oVirt as well. All apps certified for RHEL are certified for RHEV as well. Main benefits of oVirt: - Newest features oVirt gives you the latest and greatest. So it will take some time until this feature is available in RHEV, too (due to testing). - No subscription coasts You don't have to buy subscriptions for an oVirt environment, so it saves money. But on the other hand it can also cost you more money, if you have to spend a lot of time in troubleshooting or with upgrading (especially with possible upgrading issues) or having down times of your environment. It's not too easy to say if you should use RHEV or oVirt. I hope I could help you making a decision with my explanations above. You could also have both - a RHEV setup for production vms and an oVirt setup for development and qa vms.

[Users] Reattach storage domain
by Alexandr 09 Feb '14

09 Feb '14

Hello! Unfortunately my master storage domain (gluster) is dead. I setup another gluster-storage and attach it to the ovirt. Hostname, path and volume name are same as old ones. Then I restored from tar archive all files. But I cannot activate master domain, operation failed and domain status remains "inactive". I see - it mounted on nodes: vms02.lis.ua:STORAGE on /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/vms02.lis.ua:STORAGE I attached engine.log, can someone provide me recovery steps? P.S. Sorry for my english

[Users] New iSCSI domain problem when first input wrong password
by Gianluca Cecchi 09 Feb '14

09 Feb '14

Hello, I have a fedora 19 engine based on 3.3 final. I installed a fedora 19 host (configured as infrastructure server) and then installed from web gui. Then yum update of the host updated vdsm (see separate thread I'm going to open for this). I create iSCSI DC and add that host to it. When I try to create the new iSCSI storage domain (sw iscsi target on a CentOS 6.5 server) I initially input the wrong chap password so that discovery goes ok, while authentication fails. Then I put correct pwd but after apparently going on (I see the exposed lun) then gives error in webadmin gui I have 2014-Feb-05, 16:57 Failed to attach Storage Domain OV01 to Data Center ISCSI. (User: admin@internal) 2014-Feb-05, 16:57 Failed to attach Storage Domains to Data Center ISCSI.

[Users] Can't open ovirt console using Spice or VNC - help!
by Drew Showers 09 Feb '14

09 Feb '14

Hello, I'm a nube with ovirt, but have the ovirt-engine and 1 remote host up and running (separate physical servers, same subnet). The network, DNS. NFS all work. I can create VM's, install the ISO OS with no problems. Here is were I get stuck. After a frustrating few hours trying to get a console to launch on my mac, I broke down and created a new Centos 6.4 Desktop VM using Fusion. I've installed - spice-xpi (yum install spice-xpi) virt-manager (yum install virt-manager) Using Firefox, if I try to open the console from the ovirt admin using Spice browser plugin or native client options, nothing happens (no errors either), other than message saying the user is initiating a console session. If using VNC, then it wants to either download the console.vv or open it with the default viewer, which throws and error "Unable to connect to the graphics server file" So, I'm stuck in going any further until I get this worked out. No VM IP or host name (unless I'm missing something)... I actually find this quite unfriendly. I know similar issues have been discussed previously, but none have solved my problem. BTW: I'm running Centos 6.5 on both the engine and host. I'm not sure if I'm missing additional packages or what. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Drew
