[Users] oVirt-Foreman UI plugin
by Oved Ourfalli 20 Dec '12

20 Dec '12

Hey all, I've been working on an oVirt-Foreman UI-plugin recently, using oVirt's new UI-plugin infrastructure. It allows users to see Foreman data on oVirt entities, from inside Webadmin. I wrote a blog post describing this plugin, what can he do, some challenges that I faced and solutions, some screenshots, future work and more. Check it out at: ovedou.blogpost.com I'll be happy to hear your feedback both on the blog and on the plugin itself! If you need help installing the plugin feel free to contact me :-) Cheers, Oved

[Users] Adding Nodes after ovirt-engine re-install
by Alex Leonhardt 20 Dec '12

20 Dec '12

Hi, I was wondering if it's possible to add existing ovirt nodes (HVs) to a new installed ovirt-engine ? E.g. the old engine died and there was no backup of it - how would you add the existing HVs without destroying what's already running ? If the above is not possible, is there a "backup guide" you can refer me to ? Ideally though, it should really be possible to "import" existing HVs into a newly setup ovirt-engine. Alex

[Users] v2v vmware conversion
by Alex Leonhardt 20 Dec '12

20 Dec '12

Hi, I've seen several posts out there on how to convirt hosts from VMware -> Ovirt/KVM - Am I right to assume that just like the command for RHEV, the equivalent for Ovirt would be : virt-v2v -ic esx://$IP$/?no_verify=1 -o rhev -osd $HV$:/vol/exportdomain --network ovirtmgmt $VMNAME$ Also, I read a post that refers to a ovirt profile for v2v - I've never had to convert any VMs from VMWare so was wondering if that is just a custom config or whether there is a general v2v profile that can be used to convert to ovirt ?

[Users] Report size of thin provisioned disk
by Jeff Bailey 20 Dec '12

20 Dec '12

With 3.2 alpha, on the disks subtab of the virtual machines tab I'm seeing the correct "virtual size" for the disk but the "actual size" remains 1GB even though the drive has grown to 11GB (according to lvs output). It doesn't seem to be causing any problems. The auto-growth (from my perspective) is working much smoother than it did a release ago :) I just wondered if anyone else had noticed this. Thanks, Jeff
