Non-RHEL RPMs gone after RHV-H upgrade
by Colin Coe 11 Jan '18

11 Jan '18

Hi all We're running RHV 4.1.6. Yesterday I upgraded the RHV-H nodes in our DEV environment to 20180102 and found that all the non-RHEL RPMs are now gone. Their associated config files in /etc are still there. The RPMs in question were from HPE SPP plus a monitoring system client (Xymon). I had thought that non-RHEL RPMs would persist after a host upgrade. Am I wrong on this? Thanks CC

oVirt Node 4.1 question, writing files to /root and RPMs
by Matt Simonsen 11 Jan '18

11 Jan '18

Hello all, I read at https://www.ovirt.org/develop/projects/node/troubleshooting/ that "Changes made from the command line are done at your own risk. Making changes has the potential to leave your system in an unusable state." It seems clear that RPMs should not be installed. Is this accurate for https://www.ovirt.org/node/ ? We have added smartctl and hpacucli in order to do disk and RAID monitoring. So far our node servers have retained changes across reboots, which is the primary reason I'm wondering if perhaps this applies to an older version of oVirt Node. If what we have been doing is not supported, what is the suggested method to do do hardware monitoring (in particular disks)? Thanks Matt

ovirt-live 4.2 - missing stable ISO? + Networking question - when to setup host & in NM or ifcfg?

--Apple-Mail=_C8B56014-332F-4A8D-8A2A-EDDDF68CE520 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii I'm trying to find the stable / current oVirt-live ISO to download.

For example, some big questions pop up around networking, e.g.: - Should I be setting those up during CentOS's install using the = installer (which I believe configures them with Network Manager), or = should I be setting up the ifcfg files manually by hand without touching = Network Manager via the server's remote console after the install has = finished? - Is it OK for me to setup my first two NICs in a mode 1 (A/P) or 4 = (XOR) bond (these are connected to a 'dumb' switch and provide internet = access and later will be used for management activities such as vm = migrations). - Is it OK for me to setup my second two NICs in a LACP bond (required = as they connect to our core switches) and to add VLANs on top of that = bond, include the storage VLAN required for iSCSI access which is later = required to host the hosted-engine?

Hosted Engine and network isolation
by Luca 'remix_tj' Lorenzetto 10 Jan '18

10 Jan '18

Hello, i just completed the setup of my 4.1 new cluster and i'm validating against a set of certification tests i did in the earlier version. One of the test was consisting on isolating the host where hosted-engine vm is running, setting ports on the switch down. Storage domain hosting the engine is FC. Up to 4.0.4, that was the version we was using during that tests, isolating the host was causing a restart of the engine vm on another available host with the fence of the isolated host. Now, with 4.1.8, isolating the host doesn't restart the engine on the other host, only moves the status of the host2 to EngineUnexpectedlyDown, while host1 is isolated, with the engine vm still running on it. Is this due to storage leases? What should be the right action to take in case of isolated host for moving engine away? Thank you, Luca -- "E' assurdo impiegare gli uomini di intelligenza eccellente per fare calcoli che potrebbero essere affidati a chiunque se si usassero delle macchine" Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibnitz, Filosofo e Matematico (1646-1716) "Internet è la più grande biblioteca del mondo.

Hi everyone, I will be restarting several production systems within the following hour to apply security updates. The following services may be unreachable for some period of time: - resources.ovirt.org - package repositories - gerrit.ovirt.org - code review - jenkins.ovirt.org - CI master It will not be possible to submit/review patches, clone repositories or run CI jobs during this period. Package repositories will also be unreachable for a short period of time. I will announce you once the maintenance is complete. -- Regards, Evgheni Dereveanchin
