I disagree. In most cases, it's actually a lower layer issues. In most cases, btw, it's because multipathing was not configured (or not configured correctly).
experience tells me it is like is said, this was something i have seen from 3.0 up to 3.6. Ovirt, and - suprprise - RHEV. Both act the same way. I am absolutly aware of Multpath Configurations, iSCSI Multipathing is very widespread in use in our DC. But such problems are an excluse Ovirt/RHEV Feature.
I don't think the resentful tone is appropriate for the oVirt community mailing list.
its supersensitive to latency, and superfast with setting an host to inactive because the engine thinks something is wrong with it. in
most
cases there was no real reason for.
Did you open bugs for those issues? I'm not aware of 'no real reason' issues.
Support Tickets for Rhev Installation, after Support (even after massive escalation requests) kept telling me the same again and again i gave up and we dropped the RHEV Subscriptions to Migrate the VMS to a different Plattform Solution (still iSCSI Backend). Problems gone.
I wish you peace of mind with your new platform solution.
From a (shallow!) search I've made on oVirt bugs, I could not find any oVirt issue you've reported or commented on. I am aware of the request to set rp_filter correctly for setups with multiple interfaces in the same IP subnet.
we had this in several different hardware combinations, self built filers up on FreeBSD/Illumos & ZFS, Equallogic SAN, Nexenta Filer
Been there, done that, wont do again.
We've had good success and reliability with most enterprise level storage, such as EMC, NetApp, Dell filers. When properly configured, of course. Y.
Dell Equallogic? Cant really believe since Ovirt / Rhev and the Equallogic Network Configuration wont play nice together (EQL wants all Interfaces in the same Subnet). And they only work like expected when there Hit Kit Driverpackage is installed. Without Path Failover is like russian Roulette. But Ovirt hates the Hit Kit, so this Combo ends up in a huge mess, because Ovirt does changes to iSCSI, as well as the Hit Kit -> Kaboom. Host not available.
Thanks - I'll look into this specific storage. I'm aware it's unique in some cases, but I don't have experience with it specifically.
There are several KB Articles in the RHN, without real Solution.
But like you try to tell between the lines, this must be the Customers misconfiguration. Yep, typical Supportkilleranswer. Same Style than in RHN Tickets, i am done with this.
A funny sentence I've read yesterday: Schrodinger's backup: "the condition of any backup is unknown until restore is attempted." In a sense, this is similar to no SPOF high availability setup - in many cases you don't know it works well until needed. There are simply many variables and components involved. That was all I meant, nothing between the lines and I apologize if I've given you a different impression. Y.
Thanks.
