4:31 p.m.
A great week at linuxcon/cloudopen/kvmforum/ovirt conference at
Edinburgh, and some other nice feedback on oVirt, meriting a special
edition of this update.
Feel free to chime in with your feedback as well.
It is sometimes hard to remember we only released oVirt 3.0 last year,
and that it takes time to get traction.
For example, see slide 3 in the presentation i gave on oVirt Updates[1]
to see the clear trend in adoption (via total users mailing list addresses).
Similarly, in Livnat's oVirt-intro session at CloudOpen, with ~75 people
in the room, almost all raised their hand on her question "who knows/has
oVirt".
We had a plethora of topics (same link as [1]), but i wanted to highlight:
SUSE support
During Livnat's talk, a question was raised wrt SUSE support.
Asking for more details, we got ~"I'm running oVirt in testing and RHEV
in production. with 200 SUSE 10/11 servers. I just want the guest-agent
to have their ip address in the gui".
So first of all, good to know SUSE runs as a guest without issues.
Also, the guest-agent itself is just a python script that should just
work. Just some packaging is required, so we're looking to revamp this
in build.opensuse.org, and hope some SUSE users will help us with
closing and testing this one.
In related SUSE news, I just saw this posted "After looking into oVirt
it looks absolutely fantastic. Might look into seeing if I can help with
porting this to openSUSE. What kind of work is involved in the porting
of the application like this?"
(discussion ongoing)
on PPC:
Leonardo from the Eldorado research center in Brazil gave a lecture on
their work to add PPC support to oVirt. Paul Mackerras (KVM PPC
developer) from IBM and Alexenader Graf attended and gave a lot of
feedback, and potential interest from other PPC vendors, which should be
hopefully mostly config level changes.
User Stories:
Keele university presented their path to oVirt. Always nice to hear how
our project is used, and we actually asked them a lot of questions on
why/how they use it the way they do. They also did a case study with
Dave Neary, which i hope to see more from oVirt community members.
Also, always nice to hear: in an irc chat on #ovirt: "I looked at ovirt
about 4 months ago and when I came back a few days ago I was blown away
at how far it had come! The devs have done an awesome job".
All KVM Forum/oVirt sessions slides (and youtube's) should be available
here[1]
Thanks,

From my experience so far there's no recent distribution which
isn't
running without issues on oVirt. I tested SLES, openSUSE, CentOS, RHEL,
Fedora, Linux Mint, Debian, Ubuntu and all worked fine.
Some older distributions like the one in the attached screenshot are
running fine with IDE and rtl8139 emulated disks/nics...
Also, the guest-agent itself is just a python script that should just
work. Just some packaging is required, so we're looking to revamp this

I can help creating packages for SLES and openSUSE on build.opensuse.org
for latest guest agent without SSO (and of course test the packages) or
is Vinzenz Feenstra already working on it as I saw he pushed the sources
to OBS?

for latest guest agent without SSO (and of course test the packages) or
is Vinzenz Feenstra already working on it as I saw he pushed the sources
to OBS?
I'm sure Vinzenz will appreciate help with this one - so many things to
do...
Thanks,

I can help creating packages for SLES and openSUSE on build.opensuse.org
for latest guest agent without SSO (and of course test the packages) or
is Vinzenz Feenstra already working on it as I saw he pushed the sources
to OBS?
I have been creating first packages now for openSuSE 12.3, 13.1 and
Factory:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:evilissimo
It'd be great if you could help me testing them :-) For SLES I will
still have to check what's requirements are. (Environment wise (systemd
present? dependent libraries etc))
I also packaged the latest python-ethtool from upstream
Please let me know if anything is broken so I can address the issue :-)

I also packaged the latest python-ethtool from upstream<br>
<br>
Please let me know if anything is broken so I can address the
issue :-)<br>

Update: I have created the package now also for SLES 11 SP3<br>

<pre wrap="">In related SUSE news, I just saw this posted
"After looking into oVirt
it looks absolutely fantastic. Might look into seeing if I can help with
porting this to openSUSE. What kind of work is involved in the porting
of the application like this?"
(discussion ongoing)
on PPC:
Leonardo from the Eldorado research center in Brazil gave a lecture on
their work to add PPC support to oVirt. Paul Mackerras (KVM PPC
developer) from IBM and Alexenader Graf attended and gave a lot of
feedback, and potential interest from other PPC vendors, which should be
hopefully mostly config level changes.
User Stories:
Keele university presented their path to oVirt. Always nice to hear how
our project is used, and we actually asked them a lot of questions on
why/how they use it the way they do. They also did a case study with
Dave Neary, which i hope to see more from oVirt community members.
Also, always nice to hear: in an irc chat on #ovirt: "I looked at ovirt
about 4 months ago and when I came back a few days ago I was blown away
at how far it had come! The devs have done an awesome job".
All KVM Forum/oVirt sessions slides (and youtube's) should be available
here[1]

I'm sure Vinzenz will appreciate help with this one - so many things
to do...
Packages are now available for openSUSE 12.3, 13.1 and Factory, and SLES
11 SP3
I also updated a packaged version of python-ethtool to 0.7 in that
repository. So that we have the full support of the features it provides.
Thanks,
Itamar

I just tested your guest agent packages on openSUSE 12.3 x86_64 - SLES
11 will follow...
Everything works fine except application listing, as the packages have
different names on openSUSE:
Here's my application_list for openSUSE 12.3:
# openSUSE Packages: kernel-desktop ovirt-guest-agent-common
xf86-video-qxl
applications_list = kernel ovirt-guest-agent xorg-x11-drv-qxl
linux-image xserver-xorg-video-qxl kernel-desktop
ovirt-guest-agent-common xf86-video-qxl
I tested these features and they are working fine:
- shutdown guest
- display memory
- display ip address (both ipv4 and ipv6)
- display applications
Great job!

Done. The repo has been updated with ovirt-guest-agent-common-1.0.8-3
Thanks for reporting and testing :-)
I just wanted to test the SLES 11 guest agent package, but there's only
a source rpm available, no binary rpm. According to the build log on
build.opensuse.org only the source rpm was created.
Also in build.log I see the following errors:
[ 73s] error: Recursion depth(17) greater than max(16)
[ 73s] error: line 104: #

Ok I have fixed that issue however it seems
like that there will be
still an issue with finding a solution which does not need polkit or
usermode to execute some things like shutdown, hibernate and lock session
I will investigate that further. In case you have an idea please let me
know. Thanks.

Feel free to chime in with your feedback as well.
It is sometimes hard to remember we only released oVirt 3.0 last year, and that it takes
time to get traction.
For example, see slide 3 in the presentation i gave on oVirt Updates[1] to see the clear
trend in adoption (via total users mailing list addresses).
Similarly, in Livnat's oVirt-intro session at CloudOpen, with ~75 people in the room,
almost all raised their hand on her question "who knows/has oVirt".
We had a plethora of topics (same link as [1]), but i wanted to highlight:
SUSE support
During Livnat's talk, a question was raised wrt SUSE support.
Asking for more details, we got ~"I'm running oVirt in testing and RHEV in
production. with 200 SUSE 10/11 servers. I just want the guest-agent to have their ip
address in the gui".
So first of all, good to know SUSE runs as a guest without issues.
Also, the guest-agent itself is just a python script that should just work. Just some
packaging is required, so we're looking to revamp this in build.opensuse.org, and hope
some SUSE users will help us with closing and testing this one.
In related SUSE news, I just saw this posted "After looking into oVirt it looks
absolutely fantastic. Might look into seeing if I can help with porting this to openSUSE.
What kind of work is involved in the porting of the application like this?"
(discussion ongoing)
on PPC:
Leonardo from the Eldorado research center in Brazil gave a lecture on their work to add
PPC support to oVirt. Paul Mackerras (KVM PPC developer) from IBM and Alexenader Graf
attended and gave a lot of feedback, and potential interest from other PPC vendors, which
should be hopefully mostly config level changes.
User Stories:
Keele university presented their path to oVirt. Always nice to hear how our project is
used, and we actually asked them a lot of questions on why/how they use it the way they
do. They also did a case study with Dave Neary, which i hope to see more from oVirt
community members.
Also, always nice to hear: in an irc chat on #ovirt: "I looked at ovirt about 4
months ago and when I came back a few days ago I was blown away at how far it had come!
The devs have done an awesome job".
All KVM Forum/oVirt sessions slides (and youtube's) should be available here[1]

Itamar
