The oVirt Project bills itself as an open virtualization project providing a feature-rich server virtualization management system with advanced capabilities for hosts and guests, including high availability, live migration, storage management, system scheduler, and more. The oVirt goal is to develop a broad ecosystem of tools to make up a complete integrated platform and to deliver them on a well defined release schedule. These are components designed and tested to work together, and oVirt should become a central venue for user and developer cooperation.

[Users] Hello All I am new to ovirt and have a question
by Dominic Kaiser 17 Jan '12

17 Jan '12

I have recently set up an ovirt engine server and one host. The ovirt engine server was installed on a small Intell Atom quad core with 4 gigs of ram box. The ovirt engine server is running on Fedora 16 and engine was installed from rpms after I added the repo. Also I have installed one host or node if you prefer That is an AMD quad core with 8 gigs of ram and has virtualization. I have tried installing from ovirt node 2.2.1 iso but ethernet card can not be intialized even though it is detected. This is a realtek card and it shows up fine in fedora 16. The iso is still a bit buggy for me so I tried installing fedora 16 and then the vdsm rpm packages from repository. I have correctly set up a bridge on fedora 16 and by the way your instructions are wrong for bridge setup. I will be glad to send you guys a correct config for the wiki if neccessary for fedora 16. Vdsm is running and I installed host from the ovirt gui by adding new host entered ip config an.d it appeared in the ovirt web manager. What it does not do properly is install on the Ovirt web manager I get installing then it says install failed. I have tried reinstalling from the ovirt web manager to no avail. The wiki is a good start but directions are lacking I must say. Is there any more config that needs to be done on the vdsm.conf file in etc/vdsm/vdsm.conf or does it just "detect" when the Ovirt web manager calls for it? I am probably missing something on my end I am guessing. Also what log files would be helpful to look at? I will be trying this out also on a new asus server with two 8 core amd opterons and 32 gigs of ram shortly so I will let you know how that goes also. This project is great I just need to get a working host and I want to write a simpler install write up for this project that in my opinion is what it is lacking. Let me know, -- Dominic Kaiser Greater Boston Vineyard Director of Operations cell: 617-230-1412 fax: 617-252-0238 email: dominic(a)bostonvineyard.org

[Users] New oVirt-engine RPMs available
by Ofer Schreiber 17 Jan '12

17 Jan '12

Hi all, We've just finished uploading a new set of oVirt-engine rpms into ovirt.org. In this version, we're very excited to introduce the support for JBoss AS7, the latest release of the JBoss community. These rpms are considered as candidates for our first release, aimed for January 31st, and will be tested during our official test day [1] tomorrow. Please note that due to the nature of nightly builds, and due to the massive changes required in order to support JBoss AS7, we recommend a clean environment to be used with the new set of rpms. In order to install the RPMs, please follow the instructions described in http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Installing_ovirt_from_rpm Feedback, comments and bug reports are always welcome. The oVirt-Engine team [1] http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Testing/OvirtTestDay

Given the excitement around the oVirt launch, I wrote two blog posts on the "Open @ Cisco" blog covering oVirt, one last week during the workshop, one yesterday. They focus heavily on networking, I thought I would share them here: http://blogs.cisco.com/openatcisco/ovirt-kickoff-workshop/ http://blogs.cisco.com/openatcisco/openstack-quantum-at-the-ovirt-kickoff-w… Feel free to forward and share with others, comment, or send me feedback.

[Users] New ovirt-guest-agent RPMs are available
by Gal Hammer 12 Jan '12

12 Jan '12

Hi all, A little supplemental to Ofer's email regarding the new ovirt-engine RPMs (http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2012-January/000155.html) The yum's repo also include the new ovirt-guest-agent RPMs. The ovirt-guest-agent work in par with the vdsm to give information about the guest's operating system. It also allow vdsm to run several commands inside the guest. At the moment, the single-sign-on (auto-login) feature doesn't work when selinux is enforcing. FYI, Gal.
