Dear oVirt,

 

I am experiencing  a quota related problem regarding two things:

  1. Quota usage and exception trigger
  2. User assigned as quota consumer

 

First issue:

I have defined quota for storage ( qstorage ), setting all following items:

    1. Defining quota for storage, with threshold and grace
    2. Setting quota mode to enforced in datacenter
    3. Added Users as consumers of the Quota
    4. Updated quota from Default to qstorage for Templates and related images
    5. Updated quota from Default to qstorage from all existing VMs and the related Disks

Problem:

    1. the percentage of the Storage Consumption is jumping up and down, between 3% and 97%, and at certain point goes back to Unlimited
    2. when checking under Storage tab inside quota name, the value “Used MB out of Total MB” is correct, however, when attempting to exceed the threshold, I am not getting a warning, even though I am consumer of a quota

 

Second issue:

     User is added to qstorage quota as consumer. Still, when he tries to launch the VMs, Waring is displayed:

Cannot add VM. The user is not a consumer of the Quota assigned to the resource.

 

Have I missed something – could it be a permission issue, not a consumer issue.

 

All my users are utilizing Administration Portal with limited set of permissions. They all have same Role assigned, but only few of them are having the problem I described as Second problem.

 

Please assist.

Subject: oVirt Storage quota questions

 

Dear oVirt,

 

My platform is running SHE oVirt version 4.3.8.

 

Why is my StorageQuota consumption still showing “ 0 out of 3700” ? Did I forget something?

I have setup storage quota “StorageQuota” for one of domains.

 

It has 4400GB actual storage.

Kindly awaiting your reply.

 

Additionally – is there an easy&safe way to update all running VMs quota?
