NFS Mount on EMC VNXe3200 / User - Group 36:36 / Permission issue
by jeanbaptiste＠nfrance.com 31 Jul '18

31 Jul '18

Hello, I try to mount an NFS Data share from a EMC VNXe3200 export. Unfortunately, NFS share cannot be mount, there is permission error. (Indeed, after the same issue on another NFS ISO repo, I’ve change exported directory user/group to 36:36, and O-Virt NFS mount was great). So, I think issue with my VNXe3200 is regarding UID / GID owner on VNXe3200 side. After webex with EMC support, change owner / permission on VNXe side seems not possible / supported. Can I mount the NFS share with some options to avoid vdsm:kvm mounting issue ? Can I force mount with root ? Regards, Jean-Baptiste,

Upgrade from 4.1 to 4.2 failing - SQL Issues
by Sven Achtelik 31 Jul '18

31 Jul '18

Hi All, I'm still struggling to upgrade from 4.1 to 4.2 and the root cause seems to be the SQL upgrade. I installed my 4.1.9 with the engine appliance image and restored a DB to it. My Upgrade to 4.2 is failing with the errors below: -------------------------------- Performing Consistency Checks ----------------------------- Checking cluster versions ok Checking database user is the install user ok Checking database connection settings ok Checking for prepared transactions ok Checking for reg* system OID user data types ok Checking for contrib/isn with bigint-passing mismatch ok Checking for invalid "line" user columns ok Creating dump of global objects ok Creating dump of database schemas engine ovirt_engine_history postgres template1 ok encodings for database "template1" do not match: old "UTF8", new "SQL_ASCII" Failure, exiting I tried everything that could do and I also tried to find a solution on google to make this work. Could someone with DB knowhow please advise on the next steps to resolve this ? I really would like to upgrade somehow. Thank you, Sven

adding hosts problems with GlusterFS
by william.dossett＠gmail.com 30 Jul '18

30 Jul '18

Hi, I setup my 3 host HCI cluster and things are going pretty good. I have a few issues though... one of them is that I added two more hosts to the three node cluster to make it a 5 nodes. This seemed to work fine until I went to create bricks. I have 6 x 2 TB disks for use as JBOD in each node. After I added the nodes, I went to the host and storage devices. This looks significantly different that the view on my first 3 hosts. On the two new hosts all my drives sdb - sdg have locks next to them and file system type is multipath__member. Further up the page then I see a UID under the name and description is PERC H710P dm-multipath - no lock next to it. I created a brick on this and it created the lvmpv file system, however when I go to bricks view, there are no bricks. So, did I make a mistake while adding the hosts? is there some way to prevent this dm-multipath configuration? Thanks Bill

Re: adding hosts problems with GlusterFS
by Bill Dossett 30 Jul '18

30 Jul '18

Hmm, resounding silence.... Have attached a screen shot of the host storage devices on the host I added after the initial deployment. So at the bottom you can see that sdb - sdg are all locked and FS type is multipath_member those all equate to the UID type NAME at the top. The very top row, I created a brick, so it is also now locked, however when I go to brick view there is no brick. I also can't seem to delete any brick one it is created either. On the first 3 hosts, sdb - sdg are all unlocked and I can create bricks... going to remove a host and re-add it to see if there is anything I am missing, but I don't have any other ideas at this point.

up and running with ovirt 4.2 and gluster
by william.dossett＠gmail.com 30 Jul '18

30 Jul '18

Hi, I have my ovirt 4.2 hci cluster up and running, but I have a probably stupid question. During the setup and in the documents it defaults to setting up the engine datastore/volume, a VMstore/volume and a data/volume. What is the Data volume for? I am planning on running VMs on this so I would assume I need VMstore and that's what I will grow on my system. In previous installs you had the opportunity to create the ISO domain, but not now. I can see how to create in the engine UI so that's fine, but I am just wondering what people use the Data volume for as an example. Thanks Bill

Import Netapp snapshot volume into ovirt and start VM from volume snapshot
by Igor Zinovik 30 Jul '18

30 Jul '18

Hello. I'm trying to implement following backup scenario for my VMs: storage domain is a volume on netapp appliance connected to oVirt cluster via NFS3. Netapp produces its zero copy snapshots of this volume. I want to be able to restore VMs from these snapshots, e.g. Netapp can export snapshot to ovirt as another NFS volume after that I want to be able to import VM or attach VM disks from snapshot volume to VM and start it. As far as I understand it is basic backup|migration scenario when user wants to move VMs from one ovirt DC to another ovirt DC. Right now I cannot import snapshot volume which contains exactly same domain metadata (in dom_dm/ directory) as original volume (which I cannot detach since it hosts disks for running VMs). I tried to rename dom_md/, but with no success in domain import process. Maybe someone in this list uses same scenario for VM backup and can give some advice.
