VM create fails.
by Hari Gowtham 21 Sep '18

21 Sep '18

Hi, After the upgrade of hosted engine to 4.1, the users are not able to create new VMs, its throwing an error saying user is not a consumer of the quota. But the user is associated with the quota and has been consuming it until the upgrade was done. The error log from the log message: 2018-09-20 12:23:51,702+05 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.AddVmCommand] (default task-51) [c1127c2a-29df-456e-825c-878dffac639a] No permission found for user '6933cd13-ecf8-40f7-a54c-4a81d6b71941' or one of th e groups he is member of, when running action 'AddVm', Required permissions are: Action type: 'USER' Action group: 'CONSUME_QUOTA' Object type: 'Quota' Object ID: '5970bb97-02ee-02f0-00eb-0000000002ce'. We have created a quota for each user and in the older version, the users had the ability to set their quota to consume. But with the upgrade the users don't have the ability to select the quota they want to consume. We expect this might be were the bug is related to. Need help to proceed with this. -- Regards, Hari Gowtham.

Hosted Engine Upgrades
by Gary Pedretty 21 Sep '18

21 Sep '18

What is the official recommended method in a Hosted Engine Data Center/Cluster to upgrade the hosted_engine VM. Applying the updates on the individual hosts is pretty straight forward using either the GUI or just running yum update on each host once they are in maintenance mode. But what about the engine? This is an engine vm that was created from the appliance rpm initially. The documentation seems to skip over applying the periodic updates except to the individual hosts. Thanks Gary __________________

lack feture of ovirt
by adam_xu＠adagene.com.cn 21 Sep '18

21 Sep '18

Hi, everyone. Is it possible to create a vHBA for a vm in ovirt cluster ? I once created a vHBA for a vm when I was using a standalone KVM server. the vm works very well and has connected to a FCP storage. I didn't find any feture in ovirt that support creating vHBA. could any one tell me why ovirt didn't support vHBA, is there any limit of that feture? thanks. yours Adam

VM create with network interface via the API
by Alan Bunch 21 Sep '18

21 Sep '18

Hello all and thank you in advance for your help. I have been able to work out how to add vm via a call to the vms API. I am passing in a template via the api call and that is working. I do not have a network installed in the template. My use case for that was to hit “New vm”, fill in the hostname and network and let cloud-init set the hostname. That way I can create a new vm with just a few clicks. What I can’t seem to figure out is how to define the network interface in the add vm api call. It looks like I should have to add the network interface in a second call after creation. If I add the interface in the <initialization> section for cloud-init I seems to have a chicken and egg problem. When I add the <initialization> section and the data for the ip address, netmask, default gateway, I get; <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <fault> <detail>[Cannot add VM. Static IPv4 address is missing in cloud-init configuration.]</detail> <reason>Operation Failed</reason> </fault> That would seem to indicate to me that I need and interface before I can configure it. That makes sense. But how do I get an interface before I create the vm ? What might I be missing? The desired result is create a vm and set the hostname and ip info via the api so that I get a fully formed vm connected to the network. That gets me to the point of being able to download build scripts to install and start puppet. Alan

About Local Storage dir
by adam_xu＠adagene.com.cn 21 Sep '18

21 Sep '18

Hello, everyone. I want to export my vm as a ova to local path of the ovirt node. but I saw something about the local storage in the ovirt document: https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/admin-guide/chap-Storage/ It said: Preparing Local Storage ... Important: On oVirt Node, the path used for local storage must be within the /var directory; create the storage directory in the following procedure within /var I check the partation of my ovirt nodes. the /var has only 15GB space and the root dir / has 2.1 TB space. that is the default during the ovirt node installation. question: why the loca storage must be put in the /var directory? thanks. yours Adam

Slow vm transfer speed from vmware esxi 5
by Bernhard Dick 20 Sep '18

20 Sep '18

Hi, currently I'm trying to move VMs from our vsphere 5 environment to oVirt. While the io performance on oVirt and on the esxi platform is quite well (about 100MByte/sec on a 1GBit storage link) the transfer speed using the integrated v2v-feature is very slow (only 10MByte/sec). That would result in transfer time of >24h for some machines. Do you have any ideas how I can improve the transfer speed? Regards Bernhard Dick
