Odd behavior after upgrade to 4.5
by Seann G. Clark 19 Jan '24

19 Jan '24

All, I just recently upgraded from 4.3 to 4.5, and while most of the upgrade went smoothly and I didn't see any major issues, I have noticed a few things that are causing problems. The one piece that I had to sneak in to make the install successful, is push my CA and intermediate CA certs into the engine after it came up the first time, but before it fully installed, otherwise it would fail restoring the backup. This is to address using a custom Apache cert for the hosted engine, instead of the default self-signed CA. The biggest issue is with keycloak. To make the upgrade succeed I had to skip keycloak installation, after doing some digging related to this error: "Failed to execute stage 'Misc configuration': 'OVESETUP_OVN/ovirtProviderOvnSecret'" I don't actively use OVN in my environment right now, and I think it is all pretty much in the default install state. This is the same error I get when I loop back to install keycloak now that the engine is up. This is what is in the logs for the last few lines preceding the error and failure event: 2024-01-19 19:09:32,602+0000 DEBUG otopi.plugins.ovirt_engine_setup.ovirt_engine.network.ovirtproviderovn plugin.execute:921 execute-output: ('ovn-sbctl', 'set-connection', 'pssl:6642:[::]') stdout: 2024-01-19 19:09:32,602+0000 DEBUG otopi.plugins.ovirt_engine_setup.ovirt_engine.network.ovirtproviderovn plugin.execute:926 execute-output: ('ovn-sbctl', 'set-connection', 'pssl:6642:[::]') stderr: 2024-01-19 19:09:32,626+0000 DEBUG otopi.context context._executeMethod:127 Stage misc METHOD otopi.plugins.ovirt_engine_setup.ovirt_engine.network.ovirtproviderovn.Plugin._misc_configure_ovn_timeout 2024-01-19 19:09:32,627+0000 INFO otopi.plugins.ovirt_engine_setup.ovirt_engine.network.ovirtproviderovn ovirtproviderovn._misc_configure_ovn_timeout:1076 Updating OVN timeout configuration 2024-01-19 19:09:32,628+0000 DEBUG otopi.plugins.ovirt_engine_setup.ovirt_engine.network.ovirtproviderovn plugin.executeRaw:813 execute: ('ovn-sbctl', 'set', 'connection', '.', 'inactivity_probe=60000'), executable='None', cwd='None', env=None 2024-01-19 19:09:32,652+0000 DEBUG otopi.plugins.ovirt_engine_setup.ovirt_engine.network.ovirtproviderovn plugin.executeRaw:863 execute-result: ('ovn-sbctl', 'set', 'connection', '.', 'inactivity_probe=60000'), rc=0 2024-01-19 19:09:32,653+0000 DEBUG otopi.plugins.ovirt_engine_setup.ovirt_engine.network.ovirtproviderovn plugin.execute:921 execute-output: ('ovn-sbctl', 'set', 'connection', '.', 'inactivity_probe=60000') stdout: 2024-01-19 19:09:32,653+0000 DEBUG otopi.plugins.ovirt_engine_setup.ovirt_engine.network.ovirtproviderovn plugin.execute:926 execute-output: ('ovn-sbctl', 'set', 'connection', '.', 'inactivity_probe=60000') stderr: 2024-01-19 19:09:32,677+0000 DEBUG otopi.context context._executeMethod:127 Stage misc METHOD otopi.plugins.ovirt_engine_setup.ovirt_engine.network.ovirtproviderovn.Plugin._misc_configure_provider 2024-01-19 19:09:32,678+0000 DEBUG otopi.context context._executeMethod:145 method exception Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/otopi/context.py", line 132, in _executeMethod method['method']() File "/usr/share/ovirt-engine/setup/bin/../plugins/ovirt-engine-setup/ovirt-engine/network/ovirtproviderovn.py", line 1113, in _misc_configure_provider self._configure_ovirt_provider_ovn() File "/usr/share/ovirt-engine/setup/bin/../plugins/ovirt-engine-setup/ovirt-engine/network/ovirtproviderovn.py", line 796, in _configure_ovirt_provider_ovn content = self._create_config_content() File "/usr/share/ovirt-engine/setup/bin/../plugins/ovirt-engine-setup/ovirt-engine/network/ovirtproviderovn.py", line 761, in _create_config_content OvnEnv.OVIRT_PROVIDER_OVN_SECRET KeyError: 'OVESETUP_OVN/ovirtProviderOvnSecret' 2024-01-19 19:09:32,682+0000 ERROR otopi.context context._executeMethod:154 Failed to execute stage 'Misc configuration': 'OVESETUP_OVN/ovirtProviderOvnSecret' 2024-01-19 19:09:32,683+0000 DEBUG otopi.transaction transaction.abort:124 aborting 'DNF Transaction' I have spent a fair amount of time researching this but haven't found a specific root cause, or solution on this issue.

Cannot update oVirt Node
by Gianluca Amato 19 Jan '24

19 Jan '24

Hello, I am trying to update my oVirt installation to 4.5.5, but while I had no problems upgrading the self-hosted ovirt-engine, I am not able to upgrade any node (running oVirt Node NG 4.5.4 or older). I just click Upgrade in the oVirt Manager, and I get a bunch of events telling me that everything was OK and the upgrade succeeded, but in reality nothing happened on the nodes: the result of "nodectl info" before and after the upgrade process is exactly the same. I gave a look to the engine.log and to the relevant ovirt-host-mgmt-ansible log in the ovirt-engine VM, but I cannot find the problem. Do any of you have any ideas ? I am attaching some relevant files. Note that the upgrade consistently fails in the same way on other nodes, which have other versions of oVirt Node NG (always in the 4.5 family). Thanks for your help --gianluca

virt-viewer - lost partialy connectivity
by paf1＠email.cz 19 Jan '24

19 Jan '24

Hello, after update centos9-stream to latest packages with ovirt 4.5.5 I lost VMs console connectivity . For html5 option I lost all ( can't connect anyway ) For virt-viewer option only partially, can view output screen, but keyboard has no input ( sometimes accept enter ) I tried to reinstall ovirt-vmconsole-host-1.0.9-3.el9.noarch and ovirt- vmconsole-1.0.9-3.el9.noarch , but with no success, the same situation with reinstall virt-viewer 11.0 locally ( ubuntu 23.04 last updates ). This stopped my VMs deploying :( . Exists any fix or workaround about this issue ?? thx. a lot regs. Pavel

Re: [EXT]Re: Re: [SOLVED] Re: Re: How to re-enroll (or renew) host certificates for a single-host hosted-engine deployment?

Actually , the vdsmd trick is needed only to fool the engine that the host has failed (you need to disable the fencing or prevent it somehow - like changing the ipmi user's password).The engine itself uses ssh to distribute the new certificate to the host.

CAUTION: Be careful of links - This email originated from outside of Certida.Hi, Recently I found another way to renew the certificates on a one-node self-hosted environment.The trick is to stop vdsmd and wait till the engine shows the system unresponsive. Then you can trigger a certificate renewal and just power on vdsmd again.

Here's a complete update of what you have above intermingling some extra bits for anyone who has to do this in the future.

Hello, Does anyone know which, if any, NVIDIA GRID driver supports Ovirt 4.5.4 on Ovirt-node (kernel 4.18.0-408.el8.x86_64)? I've recently upgraded to Ovirt 4.5 and can't find a NVIDIA GRID driver that will connect to my Tesla v100 on the new kernel. nvidia-smi returns the following no matter what driver I install: NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

Cannot restart ovirt after massive failure.
by Gilboa Davara 18 Jan '24

18 Jan '24

Hello all, During the night, one of my (smaller) setups, a single node self hosted engine (localhost NFS) crashed due to what-looks-like a massive disk failure (Software RAID6, with 10 drives + spare). After a reboot, I let the RAID resync with a fresh drive) and went on to start oVirt. However, no such luck. Two issues: 1. ovirt-ha-broker fails due to broken hosted engine state (log attached). 2. ovirt-ha-agent fails due to network test (tcp) even though both remote-host and DNS servers are active. (log attached). Two questions: 1. Can I somehow force the agent to disable the network liveliness test? 2. Can I somehow force the broker to rebuild / fix the hosted engine state? - Gilboa

VDSM Command DetachStorageDomainVDS Failed
by Matthew J Black 18 Jan '24

18 Jan '24

Hi All, So after having an oVirt cluster crash (no data loss (at this stage), thankfully) and rebuilding from scratch, I'm trying to import the old Storage Domains. I've been successful with three (automatically "detaching" from the old, now non-existent hosts) but one is giving me the following error from the hosted-engine GUI: ~~~ VDSM command DetachStorageDomainVDS failed: Cannot acquire host id: ('e311ddf1-7f2c-49ef-a618-050d9a2b947f', SanlockException(19, 'Sanlock lockspace add failure', 'No such device')) ~~~ I am going to assume ("make an ass out for you and me") that I can run the required command from the cli with a "-force" flag (I hope), so my Q is: What is the command, because I can't seem to find it in any doco (most probably because I'm old and my eyes are feeble :-) ). Any help gratefully appreciated - FTR: that particular Storage Domain have a bunch of VM Images on it which I'd rather import/recover than have to create from scratch. Cheers Dulux-Oz
