Please don't remove instance type
by Baptiste Agasse 07 Mar '19

07 Mar '19

Hi all, We are happy oVirt users for some years now (we started with 3.6, now on 4.2) and we manage most of our virtualization stacks with it. To provision and manage our machines, we use the foreman (for bare metal and virtual machines) on top of it. I made some little contributions to the foreman and other underlying stuff to have a deeper integration with oVirt, like to be able to select instance type directly from foreman interface/api and we rely on it. We use instance types to standardize our vms by defining system resources (memory, cpu and cpu topology) console type, boot options. On top of that we plan to use templates to apply OS (CentOS 7 and CentOS 6 actually). Having resources definitions separated from OS installation help us to keep instance types and templates lists small and don't bother users about some technical underlying stuff. As we are interested in automating oVirt maintenance tasks and configuration with ansible, I asked at FOSDEM oVirt booth if there is any ansible module to manage instance types in Ovirt as I didn't find it in ovirt ansible infra repo. The person to whom I asked the question said that you are planning to remove instance types from ovirt, and this make me sad :(. So here I am to ask why do you plan to remove instance types from oVirt. As far as I know, it's fairly common to have "instance types" / "flavors" / "sizes" on one side and then templates (bare OS, preinstalled appliances...) on other side and pick one of each to make an instance. If this first part is missing in future version of ovirt, it will be a pain point for us. So, my question is, do you really plan to remove instances type definitely ? Cheers. -- Baptiste

Hello Guys, I try to make work copy and paste from a virt-viewer client to a Linux VM (Centos 6). I have install spice-vdagent (service run). Guest is configured as QXL + Spice. I also have test : - Enable SPICE clipboard copy and paste - Enable VirtIO serial console But Paste (CTRL + SHIFT + V ?) not work Is this function can work without QXL driver ?

Info about Cinderlib integration testing
by Gianluca Cecchi 07 Mar '19

07 Mar '19

Hello, I have updated an environment from 4.2.8 to 4.3.1. During setup I selected: --== PRODUCT OPTIONS ==-- Set up Cinderlib integration (Currently in tech preview. For more info - https://ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/storage/cinderlib-int… ) (Yes, No) [No]: Yes . . . --== DATABASE CONFIGURATION ==-- Where is the ovirt cinderlib database located? (Local, Remote) [Local]: Setup can configure the local postgresql server automatically for the CinderLib to run. This may conflict with existing applications. Would you like Setup to automatically configure postgresql and create CinderLib database, or prefer to perform that manually? (Automatic, Manual) [Automatic]: . . . --== CONFIGURATION PREVIEW ==-- . . . CinderLib database secured connection : False CinderLib database user name : ovirt_cinderlib CinderLib database name : ovirt_cinderlib CinderLib database host : localhost CinderLib database port : 5432 CinderLib database host name validation : False Set up Cinderlib integration : True Configure local CinderLib database : True at the end I upgraded cluster and dc compatibility version to 4.3. When I go in the UI and add storage domain, in "Domain Function" field I don't see the "ManagedBlockStorage" between the available ones I see that the RDBMS has been created, but empty... is it the expected result? -bash-4.2$ psql ovirt_cinderlib psql (9.2.24, server 10.6) WARNING: psql version 9.2, server version 10.0. Some psql features might not work. Type "help" for help. ovirt_cinderlib=# \d No relations found. ovirt_cinderlib=# Any hint about enabling/testing cinderlib integration with 4.3.1? Current packages on engine: [root@ovmgr1 ~]# rpm -qa | grep -i cinder openstack-java-cinder-model-3.2.5-1.el7.noarch ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-cinderlib-4.3.1.1-1.el7.noarch openstack-java-cinder-client-3.2.5-1.el7.noarch [root@ovmgr1 ~]# and "yum search cinder" command doesn't give any more packages than those already installed Thanks in advance, Gianluca

Two Hosts with Self Hosted Engine - HA / Failover & NFS
by shanep＠lifestylepanel.com 06 Mar '19

06 Mar '19

Is it possible to have only two physical hosts with NFS and be able to do VM HA / Failover between these hosts? Both hosts are identical with RAID Drive Arrays of 8TB. If so, can anybody point me to any docs or examples on exactly how the Storage setup is done so that NFS will replicate across the hosts? If not what file system should I use to achieve this? Thanks Shane

Quota Actual Consumption
by Andrey Rusakov 06 Mar '19

06 Mar '19

Hi, Is it possible to configure oVirt to work Quota with actual vCPU Consumption. Currently i got 1 VM with 2 vCPU and 8Gb. In VM stats - 0% of CPU in use 0% of RAM in Use (it is fresh Linux instalaltion) In Quota consumption i can see 40% of CPU (vCPU quota = 5) 27% of RAM (Memory quota 30Gb) Is it possible to adjust Quata management to work with Actual workload, instead of VM Configuration? P.S. Seems like it is working for Storage, as i can see 0% Consumption in Quota (1Gb of thick disk with 20Gb Max and 200Gb in Quota)

Install Hyerpvisor via PXE boot
by wodel youchi 06 Mar '19

06 Mar '19

Hi, Is it possible to install oVirt Hypervisor using PXE boot install. I did a simple dhcpd+tftp+httpd install and I configured a test with CentOS 7 and it works both for legacy and efi. When I tried with the Hypervisor ISO, the image booted but I didn't any package for installation, digging a little I found the ks.cfg which contain this : cd /tmp rpm2cpio /run/install/repo/Packages/redhat-virtualization-host-image-update*|cpio -ivd squashfs=$(find|grep squashfs|grep -v meta) ln -s $squashfs /tmp/squashfs %end liveimg --url=file:///tmp/squashfs I modified my grub.cfg like this : menuentry 'Install oVirtH 4.2' --class fedora --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os { linuxefi /networkboot/ovhyper4.2/vmlinuz inst.ks=http://192.168.1.50/pub/oh42/ks.cfg inst.stage2=http://192.168.1.50/pub/oh42/ initrdefi /networkboot/ovhyper4.2/initrd.img } This time I got Fatal error : file:///tmp/squashfs not found. Regards.

OVN Deployment
by Bryan Sockel 06 Mar '19

06 Mar '19

Hi, I am looking to implement OVN with in my setup, but could use some guidance on the implementation. As part of the implementation i am planning on moving from engine being installed on a physical server to running as a VM with in my environment. I do not need to retain any historical data. The plan would be to import the vm's into a new deployment of oVirt after getting everything setup. Currently i have a single host i plan on using for the initial deployment, but as vm's are moved over, i will be adding additional hosts. With the deployment of oVirt 4.3.x the ovn provider is installed correctly. Is there a problem with installing the OVN Controller on the Hosted Engine? Has any one found a good guide for setting up and deploying ovn in an oVirt hosted-engine environment? Thank You, Bryan Sockel

Re: Hosted engine not starting after 4.3 Upgrade - cannot find OVF_STORE
by Jayme 06 Mar '19

It sure if this is the same bug I hit but check ownership of the cam images. There’s a bug in 4.3 upgrade that changes ownership to root and causes vms to not start until you change back to vdsm On Wed, Mar 6, 2019 at 4:57 AM Shawn Southern <shawn.southern(a)entegrus.com>

Hi all, in the past we have used customized ipxe (to allow boot over network with 10G cards), now we have finally updated our hypervisors to the latest ipxe-roms-qemu Of course the sum now differs and during live-migration the libvirtd throws this error: Mar 4 11:37:14 hypevisor-01 libvirtd: 2019-03-04 10:37:14.084+0000: 15862: error : qemuMigrationJobCheckStatus:1313 : operation failed: migration out job: unexpectedly failed Mar 4 11:37:15 hypevisor-01 libvirtd: 2019-03-04T10:37:13.941040Z qemu-kvm: Length mismatch: 0000:00:03.0/virtio-net-pci.rom: 0x20000 in != 0x40000: Invalid argument Mar 4 11:37:15 hypevisor-0 libvirtd: 2019-03-04T10:37:13.941090Z qemu-kvm: error while loading state for instance 0x0 of device 'ram' Mar 4 11:37:15 hypevisor-0 libvirtd: 2019-03-04T10:37:13.941530Z qemu-kvm: load of migration failed: Invalid argument is there an easy command we can use to identify what guests are still using the old .rom and must be powercycled ?
