Hey, I'm wondering how I change what gets put into the default vdsm.conf on oVirt systems? I've looked at the docs here (https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-host-deploy/blob/master/README.environment) and they suggest I should be able to put something like this: [environment:init] VDSM_CONFIG/vars/migration_max_bandwidth=str:0 VDSM_CONFIG/vars/max_outgoing_migrations=str:1 In /etc/ovirt-host-deploy.conf.d/50-custom.conf on the engine (does it need to go on the hosts instead?) How ever I can't get that to work. The var above never gets deployed to the system and if I add it and reinstall oVirt (Right Click on Host -> Reinstall) the config gets wiped. Is this the proper way? Should I be putting this config somewhere else to get it to find it? The system its running on is on oVirt 3.6.x but will be upgraded to 4 soon if that helps. Its also not a hosted Engine, a standalone one. Hosts are running C7 but Engine is still on C6 (about to be moved to C7). Cheers, James

Anyone have any idea on the below? On Thu, 1 Sep 2016, at 06:58 PM, mailinglists@mooash.com wrote:

If it'll be upgraded to 4.0 soon - don't bother. 4.0 has a great performing migration schemes set up already. Y.

For my own peace of mind (and just in case these defaults don't work with our network setup), is there any info on the proper way to achieve this? On Mon, 5 Sep 2016, at 10:59 PM, Yaniv Kaul wrote:

The file needs to be present on the host(s). It's (hopefully) more clear at [1] if you look at faqemu or fakevmstats section. [1] https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-host-deploy
