oVirt 4.4.10 is now generally available The oVirt project is excited to announce the general availability of oVirt 4.4.10 , as of January 18th, 2022. This release unleashes an altogether more powerful and flexible open source virtualization solution that encompasses hundreds of individual changes and a wide range of enhancements across the engine, storage, network, user interface, and analytics, as compared to oVirt 4.3. Important notes before you install / upgrade Please note that oVirt 4.4 only supports clusters and data centers with compatibility version 4.2 and above. If clusters or data centers are running with an older compatibility version, you need to upgrade them to at least 4.2 (4.3 is recommended). Please note that in RHEL 8 / CentOS 8 several devices that worked on EL7 are no longer supported. For example, the megaraid_sas driver is removed. If you use Enterprise Linux 8 hosts you can try to provide the necessary drivers for the deprecated hardware using the DUD method (See the users’ mailing list thread on this at https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/NDSVUZSESOXEFJ… ) Documentation - If you want to try oVirt as quickly as possible, follow the instructions on the Download <https://ovirt.org/download/> page. - For complete installation, administration, and usage instructions, see the oVirt Documentation <https://ovirt.org/documentation/>. - For upgrading from a previous version, see the oVirt Upgrade Guide <https://ovirt.org/documentation/upgrade_guide/>. - For a general overview of oVirt, see About oVirt <https://ovirt.org/community/about.html>.

Passwordless SPICE console login?
by cen 19 Jan '22

19 Jan '22

Hi, we have all VMs set up with passwordless users, using only keys for remote ssh login. When connecting through SPICE console, it prompts for login. Using something like root/ubuntu with empty password does not work. Is there a way to do this with keys or is it essental to have a local user with password (perhaps with restricted SSH) to perform a console login? Best regards, cen

give cloud-init the VM name
by Luca Contessa 19 Jan '22

19 Jan '22

Hi list, I have an oVirt node 4.4.9 installation with hyperconverged structure, on which i've created a pool of Linux VM (CentOS Stream 8). I would like set as hostname the name of the VM + a static suffix appended at the end of the name (EXAMPLE: <VM name>.static.suffix ), is there a way to pass to cloud-init the name of the VM and do this via cloud-init? I've tried to look for something in oVirt and cloud-init documentation and found nothing. Thanks a lot to everybody for the help and have a nice day.

Existing Qemu/KVM Host as a node
by atkinson.unt＠gmail.com 18 Jan '22

18 Jan '22

Is there any information on possibility of using an existing Qemu/KVM host as a node? I like the look and feel of oVirt, and want to use it on my main hypervisor, but I don't want to have to rebuild or import 20 VMs, one of which happens to also be my router. If I were to set up a management unit, and add my existing host as a node, would it be able to import or recognize and use existing VMs?

Linux VMs cannot boot from software raid0
by Strahil Nikolov 17 Jan '22

17 Jan '22

Hi All, I recently migrated from 4.3.10 to 4.4.9 and it seems that booting from software raid0 (I have multiple gluster volumes) is not possible with Cluster compatibility 4.6 . I've tested creating a fresh VM and it also suffers the problem. Changing various options (virtio-scsi to virtio, chipset, VM type) did not help . Booting from rescue media shows that the data is still there, but grub always drops to rescue. Any hints are welcome. Host: CentOS Stream 8 with qemu-6.0.0oVirt 4.4.9 (latest)VM OS: RHEL7.9/RHEL8.5 Best Regards,Strahil Nikolov

how to debug sanlock issue
by Jiří Sléžka 16 Jan '22

16 Jan '22

Hello, I have 3 node HCI cluster with glusterfs. oVirt 4.4.9.5-1. In last 2 weeks I experience 2 outages where HE and all/some vms were restarted. While digging in logs I can see that sanlock cannot renew leases and it leads to killing vms as is very good described in [1]. It looks to me like some hw issue with one of the hosts but cannot find which one. for example today's outage restarted vms on hosts 1 and 2 but not 3. Sanlock logs there are these lines in /var/log/messages on host 2 (ovirt-hci02) Jan 13 08:27:25 ovirt-hci02 sanlock[1263]: 2022-01-13 08:27:25 1416706 [341378]: s7 delta_renew read timeout 10 sec offset 0 /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/10.0.4.11:_vms/6de5ae6d-c7cc-4292-bdbf-10495a38837b/dom_md/ids Jan 13 08:28:59 ovirt-hci02 sanlock[1263]: 2022-01-13 08:28:59 1416800 [341257]: write_sectors delta_leader offset 1024 rv -202 /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/10.0.4.11:_engine/816a3d0b-2e10-4900-b3cb-4a9b5cd0dd5d/dom_md/ids Jan 13 08:29:27 ovirt-hci02 sanlock[1263]: 2022-01-13 08:29:27 1416828 [4189968]: write_sectors delta_leader offset 1024 rv -202 /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/10.0.4.11:_engine/816a3d0b-2e10-4900-b3cb-4a9b5cd0dd5d/dom_md/ids but not on hosts 1 and 3. Could it indicate that there could be storage related problem on host 1? could you please suggest further/better debugging approach?

External engine CentOS 8.4 and 4.4.8 to Rocky Linux 8.5 and 4.4.9
by Gianluca Cecchi 15 Jan '22

15 Jan '22

Just wanted to share what in subject and feedback/comments welcome. Starting env is an external engine on CentOS 8.4, updated up to late September, with 4.4.8 async 2 (ovirt-engine-4.4.8.6-1.el8.noarch.rpm) and kernel 4.18.0-305.19.1.el8_4 [g.cecchi@ovmgr1 ~]$ cat /etc/centos-release CentOS Linux release 8.4.2105 I migrated to Rocky Linux 8.5 and then run engine-setup to take it to current 4.4.9 level. The system is a VM on a vSphere environment. Currently there are 3 hosts with CentOS 8.4, that I'm going then to migrate to Rocky Linux too. Downloaded the current migration script from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rocky-linux/rocky-tools/main/migrate2rock… chmod +x migrate2rocky.sh My engine needs a proxy to exit on the internet and the script doesn't check my /etc/yum.conf configuration so I set export https_proxy=http://my_proxy:my_proxy_port export http_proxy=http://my_proxy:my_proxy_port (not sure if this necessary...) otherwise when you run the script you get curl: (7) Failed to connect to dl.rockylinux.org port 443: Connection timed out Error downloading the Rocky Linux signing key. then as root ./migrate2rocky.sh -r notable things observed: . some packages from ovirt repos are gathered too... I don't know if correct in this stage... Running dnf update before we attempt the migration. Last metadata expiration check: 0:00:47 ago on Thu Jan 13 11:56:21 2022.
