> about installation
i have to install ovirt packages by local repository and there is problem in this status and in adding host to ovirt manager you need to install packages that need to internet .
why do you need internet? you just need the host to be configured with a repo containing the packages, which can be local as well?

Hi Karli, this should be achievable for you in 3.3 with some minor work on your side; In oVirt 3.3 we introduce the new scheduler, which allows you to run your own code when doing VM placement and load balancing.
You can write your own load balancing logic replacing the built-in one, which will switch to power saving at a given time. Once a host has no running VMs, your balance logic can switch it into S3 state (sleep), and when needed or in a given time use wake-on-lan to resume all suspended hosts.
If you want we can guide you through it post 3.3 release.

_______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users Hello,
I dont have Ubuntu in Operating system picker in new VM creating dialog. Iam using oVirt 3.3RC.
Roy - didn't this one make 3.3? i suggest backporting it to 3.3.1 if didn't and possible: http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/16680/
it didn't make it probably also Ie508a8828caedf4cb8fdf971e14139404f7dded3 (core: osinfo - Remove unassigned and streamline all ids with the REST ids.)
Someone wrote that there is working ovirt-agent for Ubuntu, but I can not find any info about it. Is there a deb package somewhere or howto about deploying it?
not sure if anyone packed the .deb, but the guest agent is supposed to be there. Vinzenz?
it is supposed to work, but we don't have the build environment to produce something regularly build it yourself, if you can, it should work just fine…or maybe Zhou Zheng Sheng can help with building it
Tahnks, michal
Ubuntu packaging scripts are already in oVirt guest agent upstream. I can build the package and put it to launchpad.net under my PPA. Once it's ready I'll reply this mail again, then you can use apt-get to install it. I think we can also setup an Ubuntu repository on ovirt.org for the users. I'm now working on VDSM packaging, in a near future we will have to find a place to host all the .deb packages. My PPA is just a temporary place, ovirt.org is a better place.
I would suggest another feature (maybe it is covered by external providers). Network NAT for VMs (with buildin DHCP).
Thank you. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Sure. I think 12.04 LTS is a good release target. I can submit a package for it. I have a look at the exception you pasted. It looks like not related to Ubuntu, it might related to xml character filtering and unicode. I see some related patches in the git log. This is because I packaged the latest upstream. Maybe Vinzenz Feenstra can help to investigate the problem. May I know the agent version you used for RHEL guest? I can package the same version for Ubuntu 12.04. -- Thanks and best regards!

Information from RHEL guests works well.
Thank you.
Sure. I think 12.04 LTS is a good release target. I can submit a package for it. I have a look at the exception you pasted. It looks like not related to Ubuntu, it might related to xml character filtering and unicode. I see some related patches in the git log. This is because I packaged the latest upstream. Maybe Vinzenz Feenstra can help to investigate the problem. May I know the agent version you used for RHEL guest? I can package the same version for Ubuntu 12.04.
I am using version rhevm-guest-agent-common-1.0.7-12.el6ev.noarch on rhel 6.4 and on Fedora 19 ovirt-guest-agent-common-1.0.6-6.fc19.noarch. Thank you.

I can build the package and put it to launchpad.net under my PPA. Once it's ready I'll reply this mail again, then you can use apt-get to install it. I think we can also setup an Ubuntu repository on ovirt.org for the users. I'm now working on VDSM packaging, in a near future we will have to find a place to host all the .deb packages. My PPA is just a temporary place, ovirt.org is a better place. great - highly appreciated.
I've submitted ovirt-guest-agent to launchpad.net. This is how you can install it for a Ubuntu 1304(raring) guest.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:zhshzhou/vdsm-ubuntu sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install ovirt-guest-agent
After install, the ovirt-guest-agent daemon is automatically started. You can also control it using initctl start/status/stop. It If you have any problems, search /var/log/ovirt-guest-agent/ovirt-guest-agent.log for the clue. Feedback is welcome!
Hi Zhou Zheng Sheng,
would it be possible to create package (and repository on ppa) for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and for Debian Wheezy? I tried raring packages in precise(LTS), I can install it with no problem, start it, But it does not show anything in oVirt VM screen. Here is the log:

I've upload ovirt-guest-agent 1.0.7 for Precise to my ppa. You can get it from https://launchpad.net/~zhshzhou/+archive/vdsm-ubuntu/+packages You can wget the .deb file and gdebi it. The actual version is a bit newer than 1.0.7 because the Ubuntu packaging scripts are introduced after 1.0.7. The agent runs successfully on my Ubuntu 1204 guest and reports IP and file system information correctly. -- Thanks and best regards!

Thank you! It would be great to have information from Debian based guest in oVirt. I will try it on various installations of ubuntu and debian servers and I will let you know how it works. As soon as I get to work on monday ;-) ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
