Ovirt 4.4.3 Hyper-converged Deployment with GlusterFS
by rcpoling＠gmail.com 24 Nov '20

24 Nov '20

Trying to deploy a 3 Node Hyperconverged Ovirt Cluster with Gluster as the backend storage. I have tried this against the three nodes that I have as well as with just a single node to get a working base line. The failure that I keep getting stuck on is: TASK [gluster.infra/roles/backend_setup : Create volume groups] **************** task path: /etc/ansible/roles/gluster.infra/roles/backend_setup/tasks/vg_create.yml:59 failed: [ovirt01-storage.poling.local] (item={'key': 'gluster_vg_sdb', 'value': [{'vgname': 'gluster_vg_sdb', 'pvname': '/dev/sdb'}]}) => {"ansible_loop_var": "item", "changed": false, "err": " Device /dev/sdb excluded by a filter.\n", "item": {"key": "gluster_vg_sdb", "value": [{"pvname": "/dev/sdb", "vgname": "gluster_vg_sdb"}]}, "msg": "Creating physical volume '/dev/sdb' failed", "rc": 5} I have verified my dns records and have reverse dns set up. The Front End Network and Storage Networks are physical separated and are 10GB connections. In the reading i have done this seems to point to possibly being a multipath issue, but i do see multipath configs being set in the Gluster Wizard and when I check after the wizard fails out - it does look like the mpath is set correctly.

bond or different networks for frontend and backend
by jb 24 Nov '20

24 Nov '20

Hello, here in the description (https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/gluster-hyperconverged/chap-Single_node…) it says that we should have at least 2 interfaces to separate frontend and backend traffic. How is this when I have 4 nics and I make with all one bond interface, is this not better in terms of performance? What is your recommendation with 4 x 1Gbit nics? Best regards Jonathan

Replacing ovirt certificates issue
by Alex K 24 Nov '20

24 Nov '20

Hi all, I am trying to replace the ovirt certificate at ovirt 4.3 following this: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.3/ht… I am doing the following: I have engine FQDN: manager.lab.local 1. Create root CA private key: openssl genrsa -des3 -out root.key 2048 2. Generate root certificate: (enter passphrase of root key) openssl req -x509 -new -nodes -key root.key -sha256 -days 3650 -out root.pem cp root.pem /tmp 3. Create key and CSR for engine: openssl genrsa -out manager.lab.local.key 2048 openssl req -new -out manager.lab.local.csr -key manager.lab.local.key 4. Generate a certificate for engine and sign with the root CA key: openssl x509 -req -in manager.lab.local.csr \ -CA root.pem \ -CAkey root.key \ -CAcreateserial \ -out manager.lab.local.crt \ -days 3650 \ -sha256 \ -extensions v3_req 5. Verify the trust chain and check the certificate details: openssl verify -CAfile root.pem manager.lab.local.crt openssl x509 -text -noout -in manager.lab.local.crt | head -15 6. Generate a P12 container: (with empty password) openssl pkcs12 -export -out /tmp/apache.p12 \ -inkey manager.lab.local.key \ -in manager.lab.local.crt 8. Export key and cert: openssl pkcs12 -in apache.p12 -nocerts -nodes > /tmp/apache.key openssl pkcs12 -in apache.p12 -nokeys > /tmp/apache.cer From the above steps we should have the following: /tmp/root.pem /tmp/apache.p12 /tmp/apache.key /tmp/apache.cer 9. Place the certificates: hosted-engine --set-maintenance --mode=global cp -p /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/apache.p12 /tmp/apache.p12.bck cp /tmp/apache.p12 /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/apache.p12 cp /tmp/root.pem /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors update-ca-trust rm /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/apache-ca.pem cp /tmp/root.pem /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/apache-ca.pem Backup existing key and cert: cp /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/apache.key.nopass /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/apache.key.nopass.bck cp /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/apache.cer /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/apache.cer.bck cp /tmp/apache.key /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/apache.key.nopass cp /tmp/apache.cer /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/apache.cer chown root:ovirt /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/apache.key.nopass chmod 640 /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/apache.key.nopass systemctl restart httpd.service 10. Create a new trust store configuration file: vi /etc/ovirt-engine/engine.conf.d/99-custom-truststore.conf ENGINE_HTTPS_PKI_TRUST_STORE="/etc/pki/java/cacerts" ENGINE_HTTPS_PKI_TRUST_STORE_PASSWORD="" 11. Edit /etc/ovirt-engine/ovirt-websocket-proxy.conf.d/10-setup.conf : vi /etc/ovirt-engine/ovirt-websocket-proxy.conf.d/10-setup.conf SSL_CERTIFICATE=/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/apache.cer SSL_KEY=/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/apache.key.nopass 12. Edit /etc/ovirt-imageio-proxy/ovirt-imageio-proxy.conf: vi /etc/ovirt-imageio-proxy/ovirt-imageio-proxy.conf # Key file for SSL connections ssl_key_file = /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/apache.key.nopass # Certificate file for SSL connections ssl_cert_file = /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/apache.cer 13. Import the certificate at system-wide java trust store update-ca-trust extract keytool -list -alias ovirt -keystore /etc/pki/java/cacerts 14. Restart services: systemctl restart httpd.service systemctl restart ovirt-provider-ovn.service systemctl restart ovirt-imageio-proxy systemctl restart ovirt-websocket-proxy systemctl restart ovirt-engine.service Following the above I get at engine GUI: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target I have tried also to run engine-setup in case it could fix anything (it renewed the cert due to missing subjectAltName), and the above error still persists. I have tried several other suggestions from similar issues reported at this list without any luck. I have run out of ideas. Am I missing anything? Thanx for any suggestions. Alex

I had noticed some times that importing the cert form GUI had not resolved the issue. You may try to manually get the CA cert from engine (/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ca.pem) and import it at your browser. Clean cache at browser and try again. The browser should indicate the connection is trusted and secure.

oVirt Engine LDAP aaa - rfc2307bis issues
by Jake R 23 Nov '20

23 Nov '20

Hi, I have LDAP with rfc2307bis schema - I have posixGroup, with members defined as FDNs under the member attribute. Currently, if I login to oVirt via the AAA extension. then my groups are not enumerated. The LDAP searches (recorded on the LDAP server) are: slapd[1503]: conn=7876 op=2 SRCH base="dc=example,dc=com" scope=2 deref=0 filter="(&(objectClass=posixGroup)(memberUid=jreynolds))" slapd[1503]: conn=7876 op=2 SRCH attr=entryUUID cn description slapd[1503]: conn=7871 op=2 SRCH base="dc=example,dc=com" scope=2 deref=0 filter="(&(|(objectClass=groupOfUniqueNames)(objectClass=posixGroup))(uniqueMember:uniqueMemberMatch:=cn=jreynolds,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com))" slapd[1503]: conn=7871 op=2 SRCH attr=entryUUID cn description This returns no results, as the search needs to search for 'member' attribute, with an FDN. The issue looks to be inherited from the simple.properties file (regardless of if I use rfc2307, rfc2307-openldap profile), with the line: search.simple-resolve-groups-member.search-request.filter = &${seq:simple_filterGroupObject}(${seq:simple_attrGroupMemberDN}=${seq:_simple_dn_encoded}) I can fix the issue by replacing "${seq:simple_attrGroupMemberDN}=" with "member=", but this feels pretty hacky. I cannot find where this variable is defined, nor how to change it. Is the correct way to do this to create a new profile that overwrites the filter value? Or am I doing something wrong? I don't think my LDAP schema is particularly unusual, as far as I'm aware it complies with rfc2307bis spec. Thanks, Jake
