Host Only Network
by Brian Wilson 29 Jan '19

29 Jan '19

What is the proper way to provide networks without an egress of the host? In VMware i would take a portgroup and just not associate it with a vnic. In ovirt that doesnt seem possible as the network doesnt seem to function unless i move to a physical nic under the "Setup Host Networks" options. The Goal here is to provide a network for VMs to use on the single host only no traffic would need to leave the host but would need to have VLan IDs and segmentation through them on the host

Single Node Deployment - Self-Hosted-Engine
by Brian Wilson 29 Jan '19

29 Jan '19

I have a question regarding installing a single node and then running the self-hosted engine on it. I would like to keep this as simple as possible and am running into an issue with where to tell the installer to place the engine. It asks me to choose a shared storage technology(gfs,nfs, iscsi) and i dont want to rely on anything outside of this single box to provide storage. I would like to add another volume (LVM) as a local storage domain to be used for this as well as all other VMs to be run on this all in one box. Is there some secret sauce to getting this installer to choose a local location rather than a shared one?

Clearing asynchronous task Unknown
by nicolas＠devels.es 29 Jan '19

29 Jan '19

Hi, We're running oVirt 4.1.9 (I know there's a new version, we can't upgrade until [1] is implemented). The thing is that since some days we're having an event that floods our event list: Clearing asynchronous task Unknown that started at Tue Jan 22 14:33:17 WET 2019 The event shows up every minute. We tried restarting the ovirt-engine, but after some time it starts flooding again. No pending tasks in the task list. How can I check what is happening and how to solve it? Thanks.

oVirt SHE 4.2.8 and CentOS 7.6
by Vrgotic, Marko 29 Jan '19

29 Jan '19

Hi all, Looking at 4.2.8 and How Support version is EL 7.5. Does that mean that is not recommended to upgrade already running SHE to higher than EL 7.5, or it means not to deploy it on EL version lower than 7.5? Thank you. Marko Vrgotic
