Wow! This solved my problem too. I've been searching in vain to find a solution to this.

Host has status "NonResponse"
by p0ntorez1g＠gmail.com 18 Nov '24

18 Nov '24

Hi all, one of my hosts got a “NonResponsive” status. While a virtual machine was migrated there. In fact, there is no machine on the host. I have reinstalled host completely, but can't remove it from the engine. Can you tell me if it is possible to remove the record about this host from the engine? And reconnect a clean host. Thank you very much

Hi, In my lab I use Oracle veriosn of ovirt. suddenly my power was out, and after that the iso upload and novnc stopped to cooperate. I had updated the browser certificate, and also checked the finderprints. The issue should somewhere deeper. I would like to understand how the certificate structure should work, how-to debug it further? Thanks hkicsi

oVirt CLI tool for automation tasks
by munnadawood＠gmail.com 15 Nov '24

15 Nov '24

We recently migrated from VMware to oVirt. I am looking for any CLI tool well suited for my automation tasks like VM create, clone, migrate 100s of Virtual machines in oVirt cluster. with VMware I was using govc (vSphere CLI built on top of govmomi). Another option I read is powercli, quite unsure if it works with oVirt. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thanks!

Question to all: If there was a PowerShell module for oVirt, similar to PowerCli for VMware, how many would find that useful?

hci, glusterfs, glusterfs mount shows old size after expanding volume (adding brick)
by Jiří Sléžka 12 Nov '24

12 Nov '24

Hello, I have 3 node HCI cluster (Rocky Linux 8, 4.5.7-0.master.20240415165511.git7238a3766d.el8). I had 2 SSD in each node, each as separate brick. Recently I added third SSD and expanded volume to 3 x 3 topology. Despite this, free space on volume was not changed. gluster volume info vms Volume Name: vms Type: Distributed-Replicate Volume ID: 52032ec6-99d4-4210-8fb8-ffbd7a1e0bf7 Status: Started Snapshot Count: 0 Number of Bricks: 3 x 3 = 9 Transport-type: tcp Bricks: Brick1: 10.0.4.11:/gluster_bricks/vms/vms Brick2: 10.0.4.13:/gluster_bricks/vms/vms Brick3: 10.0.4.12:/gluster_bricks/vms/vms Brick4: 10.0.4.11:/gluster_bricks/vms2/vms2 Brick5: 10.0.4.13:/gluster_bricks/vms2/vms2 Brick6: 10.0.4.12:/gluster_bricks/vms2/vms2 Brick7: 10.0.4.11:/gluster_bricks/vms3/vms3 Brick8: 10.0.4.12:/gluster_bricks/vms3/vms3 Brick9: 10.0.4.13:/gluster_bricks/vms3/vms3 Options Reconfigured: cluster.shd-max-threads: 1 performance.client-io-threads: off nfs.disable: on storage.fips-mode-rchecksum: on transport.address-family: inet storage.owner-uid: 36 storage.owner-gid: 36 features.shard: on performance.low-prio-threads: 32 performance.strict-o-direct: on network.remote-dio: off network.ping-timeout: 30 user.cifs: off performance.quick-read: off performance.read-ahead: off performance.io-cache: off cluster.eager-lock: enable performance.stat-prefetch: off cluster.granular-entry-heal: enable storage.health-check-interval: 0 df -h on all nodes looks the same ... 10.0.4.11:/engine 100G 23G 78G 23% /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/10.0.4.11:_engine 10.0.4.11:/vms 1.7T 773G 952G 45% /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/10.0.4.11:_vms ... /dev/mapper/gluster_vg_sdb-gluster_lv_engine 100G 22G 79G 22% /gluster_bricks/engine /dev/mapper/gluster_vg_sdb-gluster_lv_vms 794G 476G 319G 60% /gluster_bricks/vms /dev/mapper/gluster_vg_sdd-gluster_lv_vms2 930G 553G 378G 60% /gluster_bricks/vms2 /dev/mapper/gluster_vg_vms3-gluster_lv_vms3 932G 6.6G 925G 1% /gluster_bricks/vms3 ... size of mounted vms volume is reported as 1.7T which is old value (sum of two bricks - 794G + 930G).

Ceph-only storage for self-hosted engine
by Michael Thomas 11 Nov '24

11 Nov '24

I found this thread from last year that indicates it should be possible to use ceph rbd for the self-hosted engine: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/4VG4AWPQ2FBYEU… In my new hosted-engine deployment, the hosted-engine --deploy menu only shows me options for: Please specify the storage you would like to use (glusterfs, iscsi, fc, nfs)[nfs]: Should I also see options for using ceph rbd, or do I need to start with nfs, and migrate the self-hosted engine to rbd after the initial setup is complete? --Mike

Latest oVirt images
by Michael Thomas 11 Nov '24

11 Nov '24

tl;dr Where can I find a compatible set of host packages and hosted-engine image? What is the recommended combination to use for new installs? First, some background: I've been trying to get a new oVirt 4.5.5 install on Rocky 9 hosts using a hosted engine. My first few attempts failed because the engine image (ovirt-engine-appliance-4.5-20231201120201.1.el9) was still based on CentOS8-stream. Using --ansible-extra-vars=he_pause_before_engine_setup=true I was able to redirect the repos to vault.centos.org. This helped, but still failed when the engine tried to access the host: 2024-11-06 17:05:53,600-0600 DEBUG otopi.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.ansible_utils ansible_utils._process_output:109 {'msg': 'Host is not up, please check logs, perhaps also on the engine machine', '_ansible_no_log': False, 'changed': False} 2024-11-06 17:05:53,700-0600 ERROR otopi.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.ansible_utils ansible_utils._process_output:113 fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Host is not up, please check logs, perhaps also on the engine machine"} ...and the logs on the engine throw a NetworkNotFoundError while trying to set up OVN: "stdout" : "fatal: [hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu] FAILED! => {\"changed\": true, \"cmd\": [\"vdsm-tool\", \"ovn-config\", \"10.110.115.21\", \"hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu\"], \"delta\": \"0:00:02.413890\", \"end\": \"2024-11-08 14:29:54.215138\", \"msg\": \"non-zero return code\", \"rc\": 1, \"start\": \"2024-11-08 14:29:51.801248\", \"stderr\": \"Traceback (most recent call last):\\n File \\\"/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/vdsm/tool/ovn_config.py\\\", line 117, in get_network\\n return networks[net_name]\\nKeyError: 'hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu'\\n\\nDuring handling of the above exception, another exception o ccurred:\\n\\nTraceback (most recent call last):\\n File \\\"/usr/bin/vdsm-tool\\\", line 195, in main\\n return tool_command[cmd][\\\"command\\\"](*args)\\n File \\\"/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/vdsm/tool/ovn_config.py\\\", line 63, in ovn_config\\n ip_address = get_ip_addr(get_network(network_caps(), net_name))\\n File \\\"/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/vdsm/tool/ovn_config.py\\\", line 119, in get_network\\n raise NetworkNotFoundError(net_name)\\nvdsm.tool.ovn_config.NetworkNotFoundError: hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu\", \"stderr_lines\": [\"Traceback (most recent call last):\", \" File \\\"/usr/lib/python3. 9/site-packages/vdsm/tool/ovn_config.py\\\", line 117, in get_network\", \" r eturn networks[net_name]\", \"KeyError: 'hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu'\", \"\", \"During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:\", \"\", \"Traceback (most recent call last):\", \" File \\\"/usr/bin/vdsm-tool\\\", line 195, in main\", \" return tool_command[cmd][\\\"command\\\"](*args)\", \" File \\\"/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/vdsm/tool/ovn_config.py\\\", line 63, in ovn_config\", \" ip_address = get_ip_addr(get_network(network_caps(), net_name))\", \" File \\\"/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/vdsm/tool/ovn_config.py\\\", line 119, in get_network\", \" raise NetworkNotFoundError(net_name)\", \"vdsm.tool.ovn_config.NetworkNotFoundError: hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu\"], \"stdout\": \"\", \"stdout_lines\": []}", Ok, so then I think to myself that I should be using a newer engine image. I installed ovirt-engine-appliance-4.5-20240817071039.1.el9.x86_64.rpm and tried again. But of course that failed because the host and engine now have incompatible versions: [ ERROR ] fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "The host has been set in non_operational status, deployment errors: code 154: Host hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu is compatible with versions (4.2,4.3,4.4,4.5,4.6,4.7) and cannot join Cluster CDS which is set to version 4.8., code 1110: Host hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu's following network(s) are not synchronized with their Logical Network configuration: ovirtmgmt., code 9000: Failed to verify Power Management configuration for Host hv1-mgmt.cds.ligo-la.caltech.edu., fix accordingly and re-deploy."} --Mike

Re: [External] : oVirt slow backups from ISCSI storage domain to nfs target

Marcos Yes I understand what you are saying and that is great for a 1Gbps network, I have a 200Gbps network and I am only getting 140MiB/sec. There is just something different with how the data is being read out of this storage system.
