Eventually you can modify initiatorname of a node before running discovery against oVirt and rebooting it (or restarting iscsi services). You can edit the file or use the iscsi-iname command. It must be named with an iqn name in the format of iqn.YYYY-MM.reverse.domain.name:OptionalIdentifier Typically you configure your iSCSI storage array giving access to the lun to be used as a storage domain to all oVirt hosts initiators. Or you can use chap authentication or both Se also here: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/ht… https://www.certdepot.net/rhel7-configure-iscsi-target-initiator-persistent… HIH, Gianluca

Data Center Contending/Non responsive - No SPM

Hello, I'm having a problem with oVirt - we're running 4.3 on CentOS 7: [root@ovirt ~]# rpm -q ovirt-engine; uname -r ovirt-engine-4.3.4.3-1.el7.noarch 3.10.0-957.21.2.el7.x86_64 Currently the Data Center alternates between Non responsive and contending status, and SPM selection fails. The error in the events tab is: VDSM compute5.domain command HSMGetTaskStatusVDS failed: Volume does not exist: (u'2bffb8d0-dfb5-4b08-9c6b-716e11f280c2',) Full error: 2019-08-21 13:53:53,507-0700 ERROR (tasks/8) [storage.TaskManager.Task] (Task='3076bb8c-7462-4573-a832-337da478ae0e') Unexpected error (task:875) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/task.py", line 882, in _run return fn(*args, **kargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/task.py", line 336, in run return self.cmd(*self.argslist, **self.argsdict) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sp.py", line 333, in startSpm self._upgradePool(expectedDomVersion, __securityOverride=True) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/securable.py", line 79, in wrapper return method(self, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sp.py", line 484, in _upgradePool str(targetDomVersion)) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sp.py", line 1108, in _convertDomain targetFormat) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/formatconverter.py", line 447, in convert converter(repoPath, hostId, imageRepo, isMsd) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/formatconverter.py", line 405, in v5DomainConverter domain.convert_volumes_metadata(target_version) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/fileSD.py", line 813, in convert_volumes_metadata for vol in self.iter_volumes(): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sd.py", line 764, in iter_volumes yield self.produceVolume(img_id, vol_id) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sd.py", line 846, in produceVolume volUUID) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/glusterVolume.py", line 45, in __init__ volUUID) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/volume.py", line 817, in __init__ self._manifest = self.manifestClass(repoPath, sdUUID, imgUUID, volUUID) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/fileVolume.py", line 71, in __init__ volUUID) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/volume.py", line 86, in __init__ self.validate() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/volume.py", line 112, in validate self.validateVolumePath() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/storage/fileVolume.py", line 131, in validateVolumePath raise se.VolumeDoesNotExist(self.volUUID) VolumeDoesNotExist: Volume does not exist: (u'2bffb8d0-dfb5-4b08-9c6b-716e11f280c2',) Most of our VMs are still running, but we can't start or restart any VMs. All of the domains show as down since SPM selection fails.

Re: Where to configure iscsi initiator name?
by Vincent Royer 21 Aug '19

21 Aug '19

You have to add all the initiators for each node to the iscsi LUN. At least thats how I got it working. Then I think it's recommended to setup multipath. However take this with a grain because iscsi did not work well for me.

hosted engine setup, iSCSI no LUNs shown

Reaction and timeouts to APD (All Paths Down)
by Gianluca Cecchi 21 Aug '19

21 Aug '19

Hello, similar questions/arguments took already place in the past, but I think it could be a good point to dig more if possible. I focus on block based storage and my environments have iSCSI based with multipath, connected to Equallogic. Currently I have set no_path_retry to 4, so I have a 20 seconds timeout (polling_interval=5). Sometimes some network planned activity (not under my domain) that should have no impact "doesn't go so well" and I could have longer delays (also 60-70 seconds) and so oVirt reactions where I see soft fencing, VMs going into paused state or "question mark" state... Comparing to vSphere, the same events don't apparently cause anything (and I see same lost paths events in datastore and ESXi host monitoring--> Events pane). This basically depends on APD default timeout that seems to be 140 seconds. This difference of behavior has the effect of showing an apparent better SLA of vSphere during these short time outages and a sort of show stopper for extending oVirt implementation.... Interesting vSphere KBs here: Storage device has entered the All Paths Down state (2032934) https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2032934 Containing: "Note: By default, the APD timeout is set to 140 seconds." All Paths Down timeout for a storage device has expired (2032940) https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2032940 Path redundancy to the storage device is degraded (1009555) https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/1009555 Storage device has recovered from the APD state (2032945) https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2032945 So the question is what kind of real risks I have if I simulate that behavior and set a no_path_retry value so that polling_interval x no_path_retry = 140 (in default config of polling_interval=5 it would mean no_path_retry = 28) BTW: I also have an environment based on RHV 4.3.5 and iSCSI and in parallel I opened a case (02452597) for asking clarifications/chances remaining in supported configuration, so for logs and so on it could help going into it for Red Hat developers Thanks, Gianluca

Where to configure iscsi initiator name?
by Dan Poltawski 21 Aug '19

21 Aug '19

When I added the first node a 'random' initiator name was generated of form: # cat /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi InitiatorName=iqn.1994-05.com.redhat:[RANDOM] Having attempted to add another node, this node has another initiator name generated and can't access the storage. Is there a way to configure this initiator name to a static value which will be configured when new nodes get added to the cluster? Or is there some reason for this i'm missing? thanks, Dan ________________________________ The Networking People (TNP) Limited. Registered office: Network House, Caton Rd, Lancaster, LA1 3PE.
