[Users] web gui and bonded nic changes
by Jim Kinney 14 Dec '12

14 Dec '12

I hit a snag last night. I needed to remove a nic from a host bond in ovirtmanage to create a new bridge line for user access to VMs. The process hung the box and I had to go put hands on the physical console (more reason to get the ipmi network setup!). The error message was "can't add eth3 to bond. already bonded" (or close). It seems the only way to remove a nic from a bond is to unload the bonding module. Apparently the ovirt process doesn't call a modprobe -r bonding during a network reset on the managed hosts. stop network, unload bonding, start network worked fine from the console. -- -- James P.

[Users] oVirt 3.2 Alpha is now available (mostly)
by Mike Burns 13 Dec '12

13 Dec '12

The oVirt Team is happy to announce the availability of the Alpha version of the 3.2 Release. Some high level release notes: * oVirt Node is not available at this time. A couple of late release blockers were found that prevent it from working. We hope to have this cleaned up in the next few days. * oVirt Guest Agent is not available at this time. It should be available in the next couple days. In the meantime, the one from previous versions should still work in most cases. * Packages are currently only available on Fedora 18 [1] * Instructions for installation can be found on the wiki [2] Feedback is very welcome. Thanks Mike Burns oVirt Project Manager on behalf of the oVirt Team [1] http://resources.ovirt.org/releases/alpha/rpm/Fedora/18/ [2] http://www.ovirt.org/DownloadAlpha

[Users] Missing CPU features [CPU Name] [Wrong cpu identification]
by Pere G. Soria 13 Dec '12

13 Dec '12

I added Host[gondor] to the oVirt Engine 3.1, after installing all packages. Host gondor moved to Non-Operational state as host does not meet the cluster's minimum CPU level. Missing CPU features : model_Nehalem This Box is a Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.00GHz - Intel Nehalem Family - so I modified/added the caps.py (/usr/share/vdsm). Line 107--> def _getCompatibleCpuModels(): return ["model_Nehalem"] (this is what i added). Now after restart de service the Host status remains UP. Can you report it?? To fix this. Thanks.
