[Users] all-in-one install fail
by Ryan Wilkinson 27 May '13

27 May '13

I've successfully installed several all-in-one setups but am having issues currently. Install details: Engine: **Set SELinux to permissive Fedora 18 basic install yum remove firewalld Edit /etc/hosts 192.168.0.120 engine.ovirt.local Update packages: yum -y update Reboot Configure Repo: yum localinstall http://ovirt.org/releases/ovirt-release-fedora.noarch.rpm Install Engine: yum install ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-allinone engine-setup Setup works fine until it reaches adding local host and fails with error: Error: Host was found in a 'Failed' state. I've attached engine-setup logs. I've also tried manually adding host from admin console with no luck. Showing ssh error 1. Thanks in advance. Ryan

[Users] Can I delay boot of VM so to interact with grub?
by Gianluca Cecchi 26 May '13

Hello, in VMware I can choose two things that sometimes are useful 1) boot directly in bios I choose this when I want to attach an iso image to the VM In oVirt probably could be obtained with run once and attach cd. But in general it could be interesting this opportunity 2) choose a delay in boot This way I can use the VM console befaore OS starts and if needed I can interact with boot loader (grub in Linux VM for example). When I open a spice console I'm not able to get usability before os already in start after grub. I see to options: - create a delay in boot as in VMware - give spice console the "-w" (for wait) option that already existed in virt-viewer and not in remote-viewer so that one can spawn a console window before the VM ha already been started. What do you think? Is there anything already in place to jump into a vm before grub completes (other than setting a long delay in grub itself)? Thanks Gianluca

[Users] Can host hooks be used to implement the following policy to avoid "boot storm"?
by lofyer 26 May '13

Can host hooks be used to implement the following policy to avoid "boot storm"? 1.count and sort VMs awaiting for boot. 2.If the count is less than or equal to, for example 5, then boot all VMs and exit the script. 3.Otherwise, boot and dequeue vm0 to vm4, and minus the count by 5. 4.Sleep some time, and go to step 2.

Hi all! I have an iscsi domain based on a HP Lefthand cluster. Using HP tool, I resized the iscsi volume without problem. On the SPM host, with fdisk -l /dev/sdb, I saw the new size, ok. But now, How do I do ovirt engine see the new size?

[Users] Windows 7 networking problem
by Jakub Bittner 24 May '13

Hi, Ive installed Windows 7 guest and when I connect Virtio NIC it only gets IP address from DHCP, but I can not communicate, even not ping to network. I used red-hat packaged virtio driver in version 1.6.3 and than 0.1-52 from linux-kvm.com, but the result is the same. (I restarted Windows several times). My Ubuntu guest works great. What do I wrong? Thank you ;-)

[Users] Migration failed due to Error: novm
by Neil 24 May '13

24 May '13

Hi guys, I'm doing an upgrade to 3.2.1 from ovirt 3.1 and the engine and host upgrades have gone through without too many problems, but I've encountered an error trying to migrate some of the VM's in order for me to upgrade the host they reside on. Some of the VM's migrated perfectly from the old host to the new one, but then when trying to move the remaining VM's I've received an error in my console... 2013-May-23, 16:23 Migration failed due to Error: novm (VM: dhcp, Source: node03.blablacollege.com, Destination: node02.blablacollege.com) 2013-May-23, 16:23 Migration started (VM: dhcp, Source: node03.blablacollege.com, Destination: node02.blablacollege.com, User: admin@internal). The VM actually seems to have migrated as it's now running on the new host as the kvm process and the VM is still working and responding as usual, however my engine reports the VM is down and the only option I have available is to click "Run" which I tried to do earlier which didn't help. I've now got 4 VM's showing as down and yet they are operating perfectly, any thoughts on what to do? I'm going to attempt a restart of one of the VM's as soon as it's after hours to see if it sorts it out, but this is a rather strange issue. Thanks. Regards. Neil Wilson.

[Users] Active Directory Groups
by Thomas Scofield 23 May '13

23 May '13

I was attempting to assign some permissions to Active Directory groups and ran into an issue where groups with spaces or the # sign in them. The engine log contained messages like these 2013-05-22 08:39:35,228 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.SearchQuery] (ajp--127.0.0.1-8702-134) ResourceManager::searchBusinessObjects - erroneous search text - ADGROUP: name=#Virtual Engineering 2013-05-22 08:39:35,228 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.SearchQuery] (ajp--127.0.0.1-8702-46) ResourceManager::searchBusinessObjects - erroneous search text - ADUSER: allnames=#Virtual Engineering The group name is valid. The example above contains both the space and #, but trying groups with just a space and others with just a # also fail. I was able to successfully add groups that contained characters and -. Has anyone else had an issue like this?

[Users] vm pools
by Ryan Wilkinson 23 May '13

23 May '13

Is there a method with pools to update (install new apps or updates) a "golden image" and have those updates propagate to a pool? Seems currently you have to create a new template from the image and then create a new pool.
