[Users] Black VM Install Console
Hi, My first time to install a VM on ovirt has encountered a problem. I tried to open up a console to continue the install process. But all I got is a blank window and a request to save a file which I did. The window remained blank and I couldn't see any activities. I went to the node itself and tried to see if I could use virsh tool to understand what's going on. But I was asked for a username and password to perform any actions. Any idea what I should do at this time? David

install them wherever your firefox browser is installed... whichever machine you are using to browse to the portal from unfortunately i believe ovirts' spice viewing only works on linux desktops running firefox currently also the ovirt vnc implementation assumes you have remote-viewer which can open that .vv file that pops up.. again remote-viewer would only be available on linux desktops.. there IS a MAC OS port for remote-viewer , but i've never gotten it to work without a lot of manual URL input -----Original Message----- From: David Li <david_li@sbcglobal.net> Reply-to: David Li <david_li@sbcglobal.net> To: Madhav V Diwan <mdiwan@diwanconsulting.com> Cc: users@ovirt.org <users@ovirt.org> Subject: Re: [Users] Blank VM Install Console Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2014 11:39:20 -0800 (PST) Do I need these to be installed on the engine or on the machine where the webadmin portal browser is being run?

yuck i dont know why they do not just have this already done in an rpm yes it probably works , i have not tested it , but virt-viewer is deprecated in favor of the newer Remote-Viewer by the way worst comes to worst you can always connect to the ovirt vm node server via virt-manager gui in linux .. or using macports virt-manager in OSX and as long as you have a username and password set up in libvirt password db /etc/libvirt/passwd.db use saslpasswd2 -a libvirt $USER on your ovirt vm host node to add your user account so you dont mess with ovirt's if you have winaxe or some other Xwindows on your windows machine you could probably just ssh with putty.exe to your ovirt node server and run virt-manager from there while displaying back to your windows desktop -----Original Message----- From: David Li <david_li@sbcglobal.net> Reply-to: David Li <david_li@sbcglobal.net> To: Madhav V Diwan <mdiwan@diwanconsulting.com> Cc: users@ovirt.org <users@ovirt.org> Subject: Re: [Users] Blank VM Install Console Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2014 13:35:02 -0800 (PST) Is this page still applicable to ovirt 3.3.2? http://wiki.ovirt.org/How_to_Connect_to_SPICE_Console_With_Portal#Add_a_depl... ----- Original Message -----

Do I need these to be installed on the engine or on the machine

Are there any ovirt links describing these?

Any idea what I should do at this time?

yuck
i dont know why they do not just have this already done in an rpm
yes it probably works , i have not tested it , but virt-viewer is deprecated in favor of the newer Remote-Viewer
by the way
worst comes to worst you can always connect to the ovirt vm node server via virt-manager gui in linux .. or using macports virt-manager in OSX
and as long as you have a username and password set up in libvirt password db /etc/libvirt/passwd.db
use saslpasswd2 -a libvirt $USER on your ovirt vm host node to add your user account so you dont mess with ovirt's
if you have winaxe or some other Xwindows on your windows machine you could probably just ssh with putty.exe to your ovirt node server and run virt-manager from there while displaying back to your windows desktop

also the ovirt vnc implementation assumes you have remote-viewer which can open that .vv file that pops up.. again remote-viewer would only be available on linux desktops..

I am using W7 64bit with IE11. My engine is running on a RHEL6 machine.
IE11 doesn't really work as of now. Try some more reasonable browser, IE10 would be also fine.
activex setup requires some manual work as mentione at How_to_Connect_to_SPICE_Console_With_Portal wiki native invocation (that file to download you got) is easier, just associate with recent remote viewer and it should open it works on Windows, Linux and OSX (needs https://github.com/brianwcook/launchvv in addition)

Itamar, I tried what you suggested. Now when I restart the VM, it ends up in unknown state. Moreover, all storage domains and the host are all down. What do I need to do to recover from here? ----- Original Message -----

IE11 doesn't really work as of now. Try some more reasonable browser, IE10 would be also fine.
activex setup requires some manual work as mentione at How_to_Connect_to_SPICE_Console_With_Portal wiki native invocation (that file to download you got) is easier, just associate with recent remote viewer and it should open it works on Windows, Linux and OSX (needs https://github.com/brianwcook/launchvv in addition)

Well, whatever is the reason the symptoms you see suggests something is either crashing (vdsm on the host) or is unreachable or misconfigured now. Depends what you did...:) Might be easier to start from scratch if unsure...

Thos is way beyond graphics issues. You have something wrong with the basic setup. Storage connection? Can all hosts see the engine and vice versa? Any manual firewall tweaks?

stop the VM. edit it, change console from spice to vnc, start VM, connect to it again with vnc.
I also tried " browser plugin" option by installing
spice-xpi on my RHEL6 (which runs the firefox browser). Now when the console is launched, a popup window shows up but then an error " Unable to connect to the graphic server".

just to rule out things: - is the geust working correctly for you (ssh?) - does it happen to consume 100% cpu? - does vnc work for you correctly for this guest?

Dafna, I have restarted the host and now started to install the Vm from scratch. Following Itamar's suggestion this time, I chose VNC as console option. How can I use vnc viewer to attach to the VM? David ----- Original Message -----

David,
Let's try to debug the issue you have now. Can you please attach engine and vdsm logs?
Thanks,

Well, whatever is the reason the symptoms you see suggests something is either crashing (vdsm on the host) or is unreachable or misconfigured now. Depends what you did...:) Might be easier to start from scratch if unsure...

stop the VM. edit it, change console from spice to vnc, start VM, connect to it again with vnc.

I don't remember if virt-viewer detects the vnc in the .vv file. but you should have the vnc password and connection details in the vv file to manually connect for sake of testing. you should also be able to use ovirt cli utility to connect to a vm which will launch vnc as well (iirc, via virt-viewer, not vnc viewer)

Hi Michal, Itamar asked me to write to you about how to use WebProxy to access the VM console. I have a set up like this on three different physical servers: Browser (RHEL6, firefox 24.2.0) --------------- ovirt-engine ----------------------- host (CPU) However the browser machine doesn't have direct connection to the host. It can only go through ovirt-engine machine to access the host. It might be for this reason that I have failed in using SPICE and VNC to see the VM console. Is websocket proxy the viable solution in this case? What are the steps to set up such a connection? Any pointers? Thanks David ----- Original Message -----

Dafna,
I have restarted the host and now started to install the Vm from scratch. Following Itamar's suggestion this time, I chose VNC as console option. How can I use vnc viewer to attach to the VM?
I don't remember if virt-viewer detects the vnc in the .vv file. but you should have the vnc password and connection details in the vv file to manually connect for sake of testing.
you should also be able to use ovirt cli utility to connect to a vm which will launch vnc as well (iirc, via virt-viewer, not vnc viewer)

Well, whatever is the reason the symptoms you see suggests something is either crashing (vdsm on the host) or is unreachable or misconfigured now. Depends what you did...:) Might be easier to start from scratch if unsure...

Thos is way beyond graphics issues. You have something wrong with
host, storage were done following the quick start guide. the basic
setup. Storage connection? Can all hosts see the engine and vice versa? Any manual firewall tweaks?

Yes, that's fine, this is the default deployment/installation. You sure you opened firewall for websocket proxy? Is is running? Engine-config's WebsocketProxy(or similar) parameter points to the right thing? Thanks, michal

Hi Michal,
Itamar asked me to write to you about how to use WebProxy to access the VM console.
I have a set up like this on three different physical servers:
Browser (RHEL6, firefox 24.2.0) --------------- ovirt-engine ----------------------- host (CPU)
However the browser machine doesn't have direct connection to the host. It can only go through ovirt-engine machine to access the host. It might be for this reason that I have failed in using SPICE and VNC to see the VM console. Is websocket proxy the viable solution in this case? What are the steps to set up such a connection? Any pointers?
Yes, that's fine, this is the default deployment/installation. You sure you opened firewall for websocket proxy? Is is running? Engine-config's WebsocketProxy(or similar) parameter points to the right thing?
another option would be a spice proxy as well?
Hi Michal, Should I use SPICE as console protocol in order to use web proxy? On my engine, I have: WebSocketProxy: Engine:6100 version: general WebSocketProxyTicketValiditySeconds: 120 version: general So is Webproxy using port 6100? ----- Original Message -----

I don't remember if virt-viewer detects the vnc in the .vv file. but you should have the vnc password and connection details in the vv file to manually connect for sake of testing.
you should also be able to use ovirt cli utility to connect to a vm which will launch vnc as well (iirc, via virt-viewer, not vnc viewer)

Well, whatever is the reason the symptoms you see suggests something is either crashing (vdsm on the host) or is unreachable or misconfigured now. Depends what you did...:) Might be easier to start from scratch if unsure...

It's for both noVNC and SPICE-HTML5 client Not for virt-viewer or custom native vnc clients "Spice proxy" would be for similar network layout but native spice client (remote-viewer or firefox/IE plugin) I may have missed that info earlier, are you trying to use browser clients? Those need the websocket translation. Or regular/stable way via standalone client(that's still the predefined default)
On my engine, I have:
WebSocketProxy: Engine:6100 version: general WebSocketProxyTicketValiditySeconds: 120 version: general
So is Webproxy using port 6100?
Yes

Hi Michal,
Should I use SPICE as console protocol in order to use web proxy?
It's for both noVNC and SPICE-HTML5 client Not for virt-viewer or custom native vnc clients "Spice proxy" would be for similar network layout but native spice client (remote-viewer or firefox/IE plugin) I may have missed that info earlier, are you trying to use browser clients? Those need the websocket translation. Or regular/stable way via standalone client(that's still the predefined default)
I don't really mind as long as the solution is feasible in the case where the browser doesn't have direct connection to the host (cpu) machine.
On my engine, I have:
WebSocketProxy: Engine:6100 version: general WebSocketProxyTicketValiditySeconds: 120 version: general
So is Webproxy using port 6100?
Yes

Hi Michal,
Itamar asked me to write to you about how to use WebProxy to access

I have a set up like this on three different physical servers:
Browser (RHEL6, firefox 24.2.0) --------------- ovirt-engine
----------------------- host (CPU)
However the browser machine doesn't have direct connection to
<dron@redhat.com>; "users@ovirt.org List" <users@ovirt.org> the VM the host.
It can only go through ovirt-engine machine to access the host. It might be for this reason that I have failed in using SPICE and VNC to see the VM console. Is websocket proxy the viable solution in this case? What are the steps to set up such a connection? Any pointers?
Yes, that's fine, this is the default deployment/installation. You sure you opened firewall for websocket proxy? Is is running? Engine-config's
WebsocketProxy(or similar) parameter points to the right thing?
Thanks, michal

I don't remember if virt-viewer detects the vnc in the .vv file. but you should have the vnc password and connection details in
file to manually connect for sake of testing.
you should also be able to use ovirt cli utility to connect to a vm which will launch vnc as well (iirc, via virt-viewer, not vnc viewer)

Hi Michal, I am starting from scratch. I set the console to SPICE and restarted the VM. Now if I choose "Browser plugin" as console option, there is a pop up window saying setting up spice then an error message saying it's fail to connect to the graphics server. I guess this might be because my browser machine doesn't have connection to the ovirt-node machine. It has to go through ovirt-engine machine If I choose SPICE HTML5, then a new browser window shows up but it remains dark. I can't see anything. Any idea what's wrong or missing? I don't see an "Spice proxy" option. So which option should I use to fit into my setup? None of them seems to work so far. I 'd like to pick the most promising one and pursue it further. Thanks. ----- Original Message -----

----------------------- host (CPU)
However the browser machine doesn't have direct connection to
<dron@redhat.com>; "users@ovirt.org List" <users@ovirt.org> the VM the host.
It can only go through ovirt-engine machine to access the host. It might be for this reason that I have failed in using SPICE and VNC to see the VM console. Is websocket proxy the viable solution in this case? What are the steps to set up such a connection? Any pointers?
Yes, that's fine, this is the default deployment/installation. You sure you opened firewall for websocket proxy? Is is running? Engine-config's
WebsocketProxy(or similar) parameter points to the right thing?
Thanks, michal
Thanks

How can I use vnc viewer to attach to the VM?
I don't remember if virt-viewer detects the vnc in the .vv file. but you should have the vnc password and connection details in
file to manually connect for sake of testing.
you should also be able to use ovirt cli utility to connect to a vm which will launch vnc as well (iirc, via virt-viewer, not vnc viewer)

* IE will prompt you with "This website wants to install the following add-on SpiceX.cab... proceed by clicking the arrow on the install button and choose "Install for All Users of this computer". * Depending on the version of IE a UAC dialog may pop up asking you if you want to allow "SpiceX.cab" If it does not Click on the install spice button again and it will. * In the UAC dialog click on the yes button. * The install will now proceed in the background.
I am using W7 64bit with IE11. My engine is running on a RHEL6 machine.
Assuming you're using oVirt-3.3.2 which provides .vv files you need to install remote-viewer. Download and install https://fedorahosted.org/released/virt-viewer/virt-viewer-x64-0.5.6.msi and when you're asked what todo with the .vv file browse to where you have virt-viewer installed and choose remote-viewer as the handler of .vv files. It will handle spice and vnc console. Joop

unfortunately i believe ovirts' spice viewing only works on linux desktops running firefox currently
also the ovirt vnc implementation assumes you have remote-viewer which can open that .vv file that pops up.. again remote-viewer would only be available on linux desktops..
Not quite right. I have virt-viewer-x86-0.5.6.msi or virt-viewer-0.5.6.exe installed on my windows 7 pc and that works fine with ovirt-3.2/3 or higher. Opens both vnc and spice consoles. The latest virt-viewer-x86-0.5.7.msi seems to be missing remote-viewer.exe so does indeed not work on windows. Joop
