oVirt 4.4.3 is now generally available The oVirt project is excited to announce the general availability of oVirt 4.4.3 , as of November 10th, 2020. 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>.

by suporte＠logicworks.pt 09 Nov '20

Hi, I was installing a VM and than I notice that cannot access the CD, after this could not access the engine anymore. The ovirt-engine service is running. But I have this error in the engine log: 2020-11-09 13:49:16,356Z ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.ui.frontend.server.dashboard.DashboardDataServlet.CacheUpdate.Inventory] (EE-ManagedThreadFactory-default-Thread-5) [] Could not update the Inventory Cache: Error while running SQL query: org.ovirt.engine.ui.frontend.server.dashboard.DashboardDataException: Error while running SQL query ovirt-engine-dwh.log 2020-11-09 13:57:21|Yd4P7G|GUQ4i7|NlyWRj|OVIRT_ENGINE_DWH|SampleTimeKeepingJob|Default|5|tWarn|tWarn_1|Can not sample data, oVirt Engine is not updating the statistics.

Change compatibility level for data center/cluster, what exactly we are changing?
by Patrick Chiang 09 Nov '20

09 Nov '20

Hi all, From the procedure I learned at the last phase of upgrade, we should change compatibility level for data center/cluster, respectively. But may I know what exactly the settings we are changing - a config in a database or in a file? Actually my question is, are these changes can lead to any service downtime for "guest VM" or "Storage domain", "hypervisors"? Because lately my RHV 4.2 suffered a few network disconnections and that causes hosts to be fenced forcefully. I hope I can collect more info here to prepare for 4.2->4.3 upgrade. Thanks, Patrick Chiang

LiveStorageMigration fail
by Christoph Köhler 09 Nov '20

09 Nov '20

Hello experts, perhaps someone has an idea about that error. It appears when in try to migrate a disk to another storage, and this live. Generally it works good but - this is the log snippet: HSMGetAllTasksStatusesVDS failed: Error during destination image manipulation: u"image=02240cf3-65b6-487c-b5af-c266a1dd18f8, dest domain=3c4fbbfe-6796-4007-87ab-d7f205b7fae3: msg=Invalid parameter: 'capacity=134217728000'" Surely the is enough space on the target domain for this operation (~4TB). Any ideas..? Greetings from Chris

cannot live migrate the hosted engine
by Rob Verduijn 07 Nov '20

07 Nov '20

Hello, In my hyperconverged environment I cannot live migrate the hosted engine. However shutting down the hosted engine then starting it on another host works fine. This is the only way to migrate the engine to any of the hosts that are configured for the engine. I can't seem to find anything in the logs and hosted-engine vm-status doesn't tell me anything. Anybody any ideas where to start looking ? Rob

Issue with ovirt self hosted engine instalaltion 4.4
by hjadavalluva＠ukaachen.de 06 Nov '20

06 Nov '20

Hello, Good Day! I'm Hariharan and I'm working as System Administrator in Linux platform for RWTH Uniklink - Germany. Currently I'm managing the Ovirt environment and I'm very new to this domain. Currently I'm facing an issue with Ovirt self hosted engine installation 4.4 in CentOS 8 server. I have an issue when mounting the glusterfs storage to a target machine. Below is the exact issue what I face; Error: "changed": false, "msg": "Error: the target storage domain contains only 11.0GiB of available space while a minimum of 61.0GiB is required If you wish to use the current target storage domain by extending it, make sure it contains nothing before adding it. Note: (gluster storage was installed and configured in Linux work station with adding additional hard disk in one of the two gluster storage linux work station. I used replicated volumes (replica 2) in creating gluster volumes) Hardware detail: device model: Dell R540 Capacity: 240 GB I tried best possibilities to resolve this issue but still I'm facing the same issue. Could you please help me in resolving this issue with your guidance or support.
