[Users] Please help! Orphaned pages
by Dave Neary 10 Jul '12

10 Jul '12

Hi all, I just had a look at http://www.ovirt.org/w/index.php?title=Special:LonelyPages&limit=250&offset… - the list of "orphaned" pages in the wiki (that is, pages which are not linked to from any other page). There are 136 pages in there! Some of them quite clearly belong together and could be grouped quite easily in one page - for example, all of the "Features/" pages can be linked from the release management page related to the release the feature is implemented in (or added to a "Future features" page). Others it will be a little trickier to tidy, but tidy them we should. This is a pretty straightforward task if you have access to the wiki - we just need to add appropriate sections to appropriate pages (or create new pages as needed) to collect and organise things that go together in the same place, and once we have them organised, we can then add some structure and hierarchy to the wiki pages. I would really like to have some help! Does anyone have a few minutes to help ensure all the orphan pages are linked to from a good place? If so, I'd like to suggest a wiki sprint, which we can co-ordinate in IRC. How does Thursday at 12:00 UTC sound? I bet in 2 or 3 hours we could take a big chunk out of that page count! Of course, there's no need to wait until then - please, if you don't have one yet, consider getting a wiki account, and digging in right now. Your help will be greatly appreciated - as they say in France, "les petits ruisseaux font des grandes rivières" (little streams make great rivers). Thanks!

[Users] SSL error when adding host (oVirt 3.1)
by Justin Clift 09 Jul '12

09 Jul '12

Hi all, Installed brand new oVirt 3.1 engine, and 1 x node on hardware here, but am getting this error in the vdsm.log when adding the host: Thread-105::ERROR::2012-07-09 14:48:42,779::SecureXMLRPCServer::73::root::(handle_error) client ('10.10.10.85', 38198) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/SocketServer.py", line 582, in process_request_thread self.finish_request(request, client_address) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/SecureXMLRPCServer.py", line 66, in finish_request request.do_handshake() File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/ssl.py", line 305, in do_handshake self._sslobj.do_handshake() SSLError: [Errno 1] _ssl.c:504: error:140890B2:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE:no certificate returned This is at the point where Engine has installed packages on the host then rebooted it. The host is reported as "non-responsive" after it comes up, even though it can be logged into from ssh, vdsmd is running, etc. Installation was performed from F17 using the "from rpm" instructions here: http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Installing_VDSM_from_rpm _Guessing_ the "ssl = false" bit is causing the problem. No idea how to either enable ssl in the host, or turn it off in Engine though. (or anything else that works :>) Any ideas?

[Users] VM Tools
by Andres Gonzalez 09 Jul '12

09 Jul '12

Hi !! Reading the oVirt installation guide says that when a local ISO storage domain is configured during installation the virtio-win ISO and Virtual Floppy Drive (VFD) images, containing the VirtIO drivers for Windows virtual machines, are automatically copied to the new storage domain. The rhev-tools-setup ISO, containing the oVirt Guest Tools for Windows virtual machines are also copied to the domain. I'm running oVirt under FC 16, and I don't have those packages installed, what could it be ? I downloaded from http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/virtio-win/latest/images/bin/ the iso file but it doesn't have the floppy file (useful for the Windows setup installation) and also drivers for Windows 2008. Under RHEV when having a Windows VM at the admin GUI you can see what applications are installed, IP address, who's logged in, etc., on the VM. This is possible on oVirt too ? Is there any guest tool for Linux VMs ? (RHEL or CentOS) Thanks! Regards.- -- AGD

[Users] oVirt 3.1, Gluster + non-IP storage networks
by Justin Clift 09 Jul '12

09 Jul '12

Hi all, Saw the ongoing thread on oVirt 3.1 and Gluster, discussing how to handle/portray storage networks in the Engine UI. What's the right way to approach this, for people who use non-IP based storage networks? (Infiniband, Fibre Channel, etc). Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift -- Aeolus Community Manager http://www.aeolusproject.org

[Users] HostNic Addition with IP Address
by Rahul Upadhyaya 09 Jul '12

09 Jul '12

Hi Folks, I am facing issues while adding NIC with Static I.P. to host using the oVirt Python-Bindings. There are two api's 1) HostNics.add :Here it requires binding param for interface bonding as a compulsory param. I dont want to bond more than one interfaces for a network while creating network each time. 2) HostNic.attach: This lets me attach the NIC but does not let me put static IP address to it as soon as I add it. I am using a workaround of updating the NIC with the IP information, but it requires me to put all the hosts on maintenance and shut-down all the running VMs which again is not the best way of doing it. Is it not supported by the API that at the time of addition of the hostNIC we can specify the IP address or is it something that I am missing ? Also,I see that this operation is supported from the manager UI . -- Regards, Rahul =======================================================
