New Install. 3 node HCI using 4.4.8 ISO
by shane.krenz＠gmail.com 02 Nov '21

02 Nov '21

Hello everyone. First time posting. Sorry if this is already been spoken to... I didn't see anything with a quick search that I did. 3 nodes running dual E5-2600 series V4 CPUs with 256G memory in a Hybrid storage config. 2x 1.9TB SSDs and 6x 600G SAS spinners attached to a SAS/SATA HBA. 4x 1G ports. During initial boot from the 4.4.8. ISO oVirt installer I set static IPs, added DNS entries and copied ssh keys copied to each host. First issue with deploying the cluster was complaining about partitions found on sdb even though I reclaimed and deleted everything on all drives. Ended up zero'ing the drives and started over. Then sdb was on the filter list. So I edited the LVM.conf file. now I am stuck on "Gluster brick_t is invalid, must be a file or device" No idea what to do about that one. Also, I am not sure if its actually pulling in the 600G 10k drives into the mix at all. How would I confirm this? First 1.9TB SSD drive Is where I am installing the OS. Should I change this to some other drive or usb stick and have the 2x SSDs as cache and all spinners as capacity data? not sure how all that is supposed to work as I am not too familiar with Gluster. I know Nutanix and vSAN pretty well. I wanted to try oVirt. I am having a MUCH harder time with initial setup. I appreciate any help / suggestions on best practice for my hardware setup.

The Engine VM (/32) and this host (/32) will not be in the same IP subnet.
by notify.sina＠gmail.com 02 Nov '21

02 Nov '21

Hi list, 'The Engine VM (10.200.30.5/32) and this host (10.200.30.3/32) will not be in the same IP subnet.' This happens when I select a static IP address configuration for the engine. Ive been struggling with setting up ovirt-hosted-engine on CentOS 8 servers in the Equinix network, using hosted-engine --deploy. Why would the setup not want the engine and the host it's being setup on, not be in the same subnet? Can someone please help me understand what prerequisites I am missing?

Hello, I am trying to perform an oVirt host upgrade and ran into this issue and looking for advice. If i try to run dnf update vdsm directly: Problem: cannot install the best update candidate for package vdsm-4.40.80.5-1.el8.x86_64 - nothing provides libvirt-daemon-kvm >= 7.6.0-2 needed by vdsm-4.40.90.3-1.el8.x86_64 (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages) After updating ovirt-release to 4.4.9, this is what I see available for libvirt-daemon: [root@vmserver02 yum.repos.d]# dnf list libvirt-daemon-kvm Last metadata expiration check: 2:09:25 ago on Wed 20 Oct 2021 01:28:56 PM PDT.Installed Packageslibvirt-daemon-kvm.x86_64 7.0.0-14.1.el8 @ovirt-4.4-advanced-virtualization And the advance-virtualization repo points to this: [ovirt-4.4-advanced-virtualization] name=Advanced Virtualization packages for $basearch mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?arch=$basearch&release=8&repo=virt… enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=https://www.centos.org/keys/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-SIG-Virtualization module_hotfixes=1 I am trying this on Centos 8 and also RHEL 8 machines.

Gluster Install Fail again :(

I have been working on getting this up and running for about a week now and I am totally frustrated. I am not sure even where to begin. Here is the error I get when it fails, TASK [gluster.features/roles/gluster_hci : Create the GlusterFS volumes] ******* An exception occurred during task execution. To see the full traceback, use -vvv. The error was: NoneType: None failed: [storage1.private.net] (item={'volname': 'engine', 'brick': '/gluster_bricks/engine/engine', 'arbiter': 0}) => {"ansible_loop_var": "item", "changed": false, "item": {"arbiter": 0, "brick": "/gluster_bricks/engine/engine", "volname": "engine"}, "msg": "error running gluster (/usr/sbin/gluster --mode=script volume create engine replica 3 transport tcp storage1.private.net:/gluster_bricks/engine/engine storage2.private.net:/gluster_bricks/engine/engine storage3.private.net:/gluster_bricks/engine/engine force) command (rc=1): volume create: engine: failed: Staging failed on storage3.private.net.

On the volume page: all default settings. On the bricks page: JBOD / Blacklist true / storage host storage1.private.net / default lvm except the device is /dev/sda4 I really need to get this setup. The first failure was the filter error, so I edited the /etc/lvm/lvm.conf to comment out the filter line. Then without doing a clean up I reran the deployment and got the above error. Thanks in advance Brad

Engine VM FQDN will not validate.
by admin＠foundryserver.com 30 Oct '21

30 Oct '21

Hello, I am trying to install the Hosted engine using the wizard. I am NOT using the hyper converged. When I add the fqdn of vmengine1.domain.com I get the error. localhost is not a valid address. When I add the host fqdn in the advanced area it validates, if I put the vmengine1.domain.com in the the host section it validates. Facts: - I have the domain in dns, confirmed by dig to resolve to the public IP of the host. - I have the domain in hosts file confirmed by using ping and dig - I have generated a ssh key for the root user on the host and I have added it to the known hosts file. - I have logged into via ssh to all forms of addressing, so the known hosts file has been updated. localhost ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 AAAA host1 ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 AAAA host1.localhost ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 AAAA vmengine.localhost ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 AAAA host1.domain.com ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 AAAA vmengine1.domain.com ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 AAAA The reading suggests that the error doesn't mean what it says, but something about ssh not able to login to the host. I have been able to login to the host with ssh manually from the cli. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks Brad
