IPA Users via AD DC's
by TomK 26 Nov '18

26 Nov '18

Hello, I've configured LDAP via IPA in oVirt 4.X. It works for locally defined users in IPA but not those mapped from the AD DC. So I had two questions: 1) Is there a format of the username and password I need to type in for this to work? Or is retrieving AD DC mapped users not possible with oVirt right now? 2) Can I use two providers in oVirt simultaneously? One IPA and the other AD? -- Cheers, Tom K. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Living on earth is expensive, but it includes a free trip around the sun.

VM has snapshots with disks in illegal status
by Markus Schaufler 26 Nov '18

26 Nov '18

Hi! I've testet a backup solution which turned out to work not as expected. It left some VM's turned off which cannot be restarted. When trying to delete the snapshot(s) of the vms following error message occurs: "Cannot remove Snapshot. The following attached disks are in ILLEGAL status: System, Disk2 - please remove them and try again" Also I cannot detach any disk because of: Cannot remove Snapshot. The following attached disks are in ILLEGAL status: System, SRV_Metrics-Store_Disk1 - please remove them and try again. I already tried via "unlock_entity" script to remove either the snapshots or the disks (after backing them up) and via CLI but without success (same error message). Any idea on that?

max number of snapshot per vm
by Nathanaël Blanchet 26 Nov '18

26 Nov '18

Hi, What are the best pratices about vm snapshots? Is there a maximum number of snapshots per vm? Has a high number of present snapshot an impact on the vm performance? ... on how long the snapshot is completed? -- Nathanaël Blanchet Supervision réseau Pôle Infrastrutures Informatiques 227 avenue Professeur-Jean-Louis-Viala 34193 MONTPELLIER CEDEX 5 Tél. 33 (0)4 67 54 84 55 Fax 33 (0)4 67 54 84 14 blanchet(a)abes.fr

NFS storage and importation
by AG 25 Nov '18

25 Nov '18

Hello, Our cluster use NFS storage (on each node as data, and on a NAS for export) We currently have a huge problem on our cluster, and export VM as OVA takes lot's of time. I checked on the NFS storage, and it looks like there's files who might be OVA in the images directory, and OVF files in the the master/vms Can someone tell me if, when i install a new engine, there's a way to get this VMs back inside the new engine (like the import tools by example) Thank you a lot for your answers, Regards, Alexis ps : it should be said in the documentation to NEVER use backup of an engine when he is in a NFS storage domain on a node. It looks like it's working, but all the data are unsynch with reality.

Hosted-engine restore to another data center
by kannis＠sitespect.com 23 Nov '18

23 Nov '18

Hello all, I'm trying to work out if it's possible to backup and restore a hosted-engine from one data center to a new hosted-engine in another data center. I am working on setting up oVirt across physical co-locations sites without shared storage between them and being able to restore a hosted-engine backup in another data center would be useful if the co-lo where the hosted-engine normally runs were to go down. Best, Kevin

ansible ovirt_vm_facts and custom_compatibility_version attributes
by Nathanaël Blanchet 23 Nov '18

23 Nov '18

I'd like to manipulate with ovirt_vm_fact ansible module some vm attributes in the API lik_e _custom_compatibility_version. <https://infra.v100.abes.fr/ovirt-engine/apidoc/#/types/vm_base/attributes/c…> Right from the APi description, it is available from the VmBase struct, but I can't find it in the return ovirt_vm_facts value, neither with nested attributes. How should I do ? -- Nathanaël Blanchet Supervision réseau Pôle Infrastrutures Informatiques 227 avenue Professeur-Jean-Louis-Viala 34193 MONTPELLIER CEDEX 5 Tél. 33 (0)4 67 54 84 55 Fax 33 (0)4 67 54 84 14 blanchet(a)abes.fr

The user admin@internal is not authorized to perform login

No one can log in to our oVirt instance today. LDAP users cannot authenticate, and the internal 'admin' user gets "The user admin@internal is not authorized to perform login" after being authenticated.
