How to setup users to see a subset of VMs in oVirt
by Jean Pickard 06 Mar '18

06 Mar '18

Hello, I need to create user accounts in oVirt that can only manage a specific set of VMs and I don't want them to see any other ones. example: User1 can only see VM1, VM2, VM3, VM4 User2 can only see VM5, VM6, VM7 Admin can see all of them. How do I accomplish this? Thank you, Payman Vazinkhoo

ovirt Node 4.2.1 on 2 node : problem with ha broker and HE storage
by Nicolas Vaye 06 Mar '18

06 Mar '18

Hello, I'd installed oVirt Node 4.2.1 on two host, i'd deployed HE on the first, via a storage NFS. The administration portal seem to be OK but i can't see the HE VM, the portal indicate there is one VM, but impossible to get it into the list of the VM. I can't see the storage that host the HE-VM too. Where is the problem ? I'd added the second host into the cluster and i haven't the option to deploy the HE into it during the "add Host" operation. After added the second node, i can put into maintenance mode and then reinstall with the option DEPLOY for HE but the result is : "Cannot edit Host. You are using an unmanaged hosted engine VM. Please add the first storage domain in order to start the hosted engine import process." The logs for the first node indicate this error (very often, every ~ 30sec) below : ovirt-ha-broker ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.broker.status_broker.StatusBroker.Update ERROR Failed to read state. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ovirt_hosted_engine_ha/broker/status_broker.py", line 88, in run self._storage_broker.get_raw_stats() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ovirt_hosted_engine_ha/broker/storage_broker.py", line 162, in get_raw_stats .format(str(e))) RequestError: failed to read metadata: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/run/vdsm/storage/e906ea1d-a5ee-4ea9-838c-bcb4a8b866ff/f1ccdaaf-4682-4d68-9c27-751d54f101a6/13fb32ec-0463-45d4-925a-b557c1dc803f' With this problem, i can't move the HE vm on the second host. so there is no HA. Thanks. Nicolas VAYE

Still new to oVirt and got another question: I have many Windows and Linux VMs and created for each the Windows and Linu= x machines two Usergroups (limited and admins).

My windows VMs have this error, but the time zones are setup correctly. In engine, the VM shows: "Hardware Clock Time Offset: Pacific Standard Time" In Windows, doesn't matter if I leave the time zone automatic or manually set it to Pacific Standard Time. How do I fix this?

ovirt 4.1 - skylake - no avx512 support in virtual machines
by Marco Lorenzo Crociani 05 Mar '18

Hi, I can't access avx512* instruction set from virtual machines. I have made a one server compute cluster to test new hardware: oVirt 4.1.9 CentOS 7 Cluster CPU Type: Intel Skylake Family Compatibility Version: 4.1 HOST: CPU Model Name:Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8180 CPU @ 2.50GHz Family: Family CPU Type: Intel Skylake Family Virtual Machine settings A) VM: Custom CPU Type: Use cluster default(Intel Skylake Family) General Tab shows: Guest CPU Type: Skylake-Client avx512: NO B) VM: Custom CPU Type: Skylake-Client General Tab shows: Guest CPU Type: Skylake-Client avx512: NO C) VM: Custom CPU Type: Use cluster default(Intel Skylake Family) [grey - cannot modify] Migration mode: Do not allow migration Pass-Through Host CPU General Tab shows: Guest CPU Type: Skylake-Client avx512: YES ( cat /proc/cpuinfo |grep avx512: avx512f avx512dq avx512cd avx512bw avx512vl ) Using pass-through host cpu (disabling vm migration) is the only way to access avx512 in a VM, is it a bug or am I missing something?

oVIRT 4.1 / iSCSI Multipathing
by Devin Acosta 05 Mar '18

05 Mar '18

I am using the latest release of oVIRT 4.1.3, and I am connecting a Dell Compelent SAN that has 2 fault domains each on a separate VLAN that I have attached to oVIRT. From what I understand I am suppose to go into “iSCSI Multipathing” option and add a BOND of the iSCSI interfaces. I have done this selecting the 2 logical networks together for iSCSI. I notice that there is an option below to select Storage Targets but if I select the storage targets below with the logical networks the the cluster goes crazy and appears to be mad. Storage, Nodes, and everything goes offline even thought I have NFS also attached to the cluster. How should this best be configured. What we notice that happens is when the server reboots it seems to log into the SAN correctly but according the the Dell SAN it is only logged into once controller. So only pulls both fault domains from a single controller. Please Advise. Devin
