Hi, just a short question: is this procedure still valid for a full DB-Backup and Restore? http://www.ovirt.org/Backup_engine_db I already figured out that it's tailored just for fedora setups, not el6 (systemctl). -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Regards Sven Kieske Systemadministrator Mittwald CM Service GmbH & Co.

[Users] VM import from ESXi
by emitor＠gmail.com 23 Oct '13

23 Oct '13

Hi, I've imported a Windows VM from an ESXi to an export domain using virt-v2v. It didn't return me any error wen it finished (i think), but when attached the export domain I get the following advertising and the vm doesn't appear in the list to be imported: Failed to read VM '[Empty Name]' OVF, it may be corrupted Could you give me some hint to fix this, or what it could be the problem? Regards!

Hi, the rpm for the 3.2 repo doesn't point to the 3.2 branch, instead it points to stable (3.3): http://resources.ovirt.org/releases/3.2/rpm/EL/6/noarch/ovirt-release-el6-7… It would be kind if this could be fixed. Thanks Sven

[Users] Host Error
by Neil 22 Oct '13

22 Oct '13

Hi guys, We had a power failure over the weekend, and when powering everything back on, one of the hosts gives the following error when trying to re-activate it. "Host ovirt02.blabla.co.za running without virtualization hardware acceleration" I've checked in the machine's bios and the VT options are still enabled, I've reset the PC's bios and then confirmed all the CPU features were enabled as a precaution and yet I still get the same error. Could this be an ovirt/vdsm issue or is it more likely a hardware issue? These are my versions... vdsm-cli-4.10.3-10.el6.centos.alt.noarch vdsm-4.10.3-10.el6.centos.alt.x86_64 vdsm-xmlrpc-4.10.3-10.el6.centos.alt.noarch vdsm-hook-nestedvt-4.10.3-10.el6.centos.alt.noarch vdsm-python-4.10.3-10.el6.centos.alt.x86_64 ovirt-engine-genericapi-3.2.1-1.41.el6.noarch ovirt-engine-dbscripts-3.2.1-1.41.el6.noarch ovirt-engine-tools-3.2.1-1.41.el6.noarch ovirt-engine-sdk-3.2.0.9-1.el6.noarch ovirt-engine-restapi-3.2.1-1.41.el6.noarch ovirt-host-deploy-1.1.0-0.0.master.el6.noarch ovirt-log-collector-3.2.0-1.el6.noarch ovirt-engine-backend-3.2.1-1.41.el6.noarch ovirt-image-uploader-3.2.0-1.el6.noarch ovirt-engine-userportal-3.2.1-1.41.el6.noarch ovirt-engine-jbossas711-1-0.x86_64 ovirt-engine-setup-3.2.1-1.41.el6.noarch ovirt-host-deploy-java-1.1.0-0.0.master.el6.noarch ovirt-iso-uploader-3.2.0-1.el6.noarch ovirt-engine-3.2.1-1.41.el6.noarch ovirt-engine-cli-3.2.0.10-1.el6.noarch ovirt-engine-webadmin-portal-3.2.1-1.41.el6.noarch Any help is appreciated.

[Users] Gluster not aligned with double maintenance... problem
by Gianluca Cecchi 22 Oct '13

22 Oct '13

Hello, One engine and two hosts all with updated f19 (despite on their names) and ovirt updates-testing repo enabled. So I have 3.3.0.1-1 and vdsm-4.12.1-4 kernel is 3.11.2-201.fc19.x86_64 (problems booting with latest 3.11.4-201.fc19.x86_64) Storage domain configured with gluster as in f19 (3.4.1-1.fc19.x86_64 recompiled binding to port 50152+) and distributed replicated bricks I do this kind of operations: - power off all VMs (to start clean) - put both hosts in maintenance - shutdown both hosts - startup one host - activate one host in webadmin gui after about 2-3 minutes delay it comes up and so it has its own gluster copy active - power on VM and write 3Gb on it [g.cecchi@c6s ~]$ sudo time dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024k count=3096 of=/testfile 3096+0 records in 3096+0 records out 3246391296 bytes (3.2 GB) copied, 42.3414 s, 76.7 MB/s 0.01user 7.99system 0:42.34elapsed 18%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 7360maxresident)k 0inputs+6352984outputs (0major+493minor)pagefaults 0swaps Originally the gluster fs had 13Gb used, so now has 16Gb (see /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/f18ovn01.mydomain:gvdata below): [root@f18ovn01 ~]# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/fedora-root 15G 5.6G 8.1G 41% / devtmpfs 24G 0 24G 0% /dev tmpfs 24G 8.0K 24G 1% /dev/shm tmpfs 24G 656K 24G 1% /run tmpfs 24G 0 24G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup tmpfs 24G 0 24G 0% /tmp /dev/mapper/3600508b1001037414d4b3039383300021 477M 103M 345M 23% /boot /dev/mapper/fedora-ISO_GLUSTER 10G 33M 10G 1% /gluster/ISO_GLUSTER /dev/mapper/fedora-DATA_GLUSTER 30G 16G 15G 52% /gluster/DATA_GLUSTER f18ovn01.mydomain:gvdata 30G 16G 15G 52% /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/f18ovn01.mydomain:gvdata - power on second host >From a gluster point of view it seems ok [root@f18ovn03 glusterfs]# gluster volume status Status of volume: gviso Gluster process Port Online Pid ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Brick f18ovn01.mydomain:/gluster/ISO_GLUSTER/bric k1 50153 Y 1314 Brick f18ovn03.mydomain:/gluster/ISO_GLUSTER/bric k1 50153 Y 1275 NFS Server on localhost 2049 Y 1288 Self-heal Daemon on localhost N/A Y 1295 NFS Server on 192.168.3.1 2049 Y 1328 Self-heal Daemon on 192.168.3.1 N/A Y 1335 There are no active volume tasks Status of volume: gvdata Gluster process Port Online Pid ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Brick f18ovn01.mydomain:/gluster/DATA_GLUSTER/bri ck1 50152 Y 1313 Brick f18ovn03.mydomaint:/gluster/DATA_GLUSTER/bri ck1 50152 Y 1280 NFS Server on localhost 2049 Y 1288 Self-heal Daemon on localhost N/A Y 1295 NFS Server on 192.168.3.1 2049 Y 1328 Self-heal Daemon on 192.168.3.1 N/A Y 1335 There are no active volume tasks But actually I don't see any network sync and fs remains in fact at 13GB...

For example oVirt could check heal info. Normally I see no heal for ok volumes eg on a gluster volume (gviso) on this same cluster, planned to be used for iso and with no data I get: [root@f18ovn03 bricks]# gluster volume heal gviso info Gathering Heal info on volume gviso has been successful Brick f18ovn01.mydomain:/gluster/ISO_GLUSTER/brick1 Number of entries: 0 Brick f18ovn03.mydomain:/gluster/ISO_GLUSTER/brick1 Number of entries: 0 Instead on this gvdata one I do get now: [root@f18ovn03 bricks]# gluster volume heal gvdata info Gathering Heal info on volume gvdata has been successful Brick f18ovn01.mydomain:/gluster/DATA_GLUSTER/brick1 Number of entries: 6 /d0b96d4a-62aa-4e9f-b50e-f7a0cb5be291/dom_md/ids /d0b96d4a-62aa-4e9f-b50e-f7a0cb5be291/images/15f9ca1c-c435-4892-9eb7-0c84583b2a7d/a123801a-0a4d-4a47-a426-99d8480d2e49 /d0b96d4a-62aa-4e9f-b50e-f7a0cb5be291/images/a5e4f67b-50b5-4740-9990-39deb8812445/53408cb0-bcd4-40de-bc69-89d59b7b5bc2 /d0b96d4a-62aa-4e9f-b50e-f7a0cb5be291/dom_md/leases /d0b96d4a-62aa-4e9f-b50e-f7a0cb5be291/dom_md /d0b96d4a-62aa-4e9f-b50e-f7a0cb5be291/dom_md/metadata Brick f18ovn03.mydomain:/gluster/DATA_GLUSTER/brick1 Number of entries: 5 /d0b96d4a-62aa-4e9f-b50e-f7a0cb5be291/dom_md/ids <gfid:59a4d113-5881-4147-95c4-b5dee9872ad3> /d0b96d4a-62aa-4e9f-b50e-f7a0cb5be291/dom_md <gfid:db9985f8-117e-4340-98b9-a62bd963f6bf> /d0b96d4a-62aa-4e9f-b50e-f7a0cb5be291/dom_md/metadata What do you think about this?

[Users] Unable to install oVirt Node 3.0.1: Exception: RunTimeError('Failed to partition/format')
by Edgars M. 22 Oct '13

22 Oct '13

Hi I am trying to install oVirt Node (ovirt-node-iso-3.0.1-1.0.2.vdsm.fc19.iso) on DELL R805 server, but every time install fails with Exception: RunTimeError('Failed to partition/format'). I also tried ovirt-node-iso-3.0.1-1.0.2.vdsm.el6.iso version and the same error occures. I tried different partition sizes and I always make sure that partitions dont exceed the total disk space. I browsed log fails and could not find anything relevant. I am really out of ideas... Any advise? Thanks Edgars
