Network usage is not updating in the ovirt panel

Hi, We are using the ovirt version 3.4.3, it seems the network usage is not showing correctly in the ovirt panel. What may be the reasons ? I have attached the screenshots, please check it. -- Regards Shanil

Hi Shanil, It might help if you provide screenshots where you scroll right in the interfaces subtabs, so that the RX/TX columns are visible. Could it be that the vNIC speed is configured to be large enough for standard traffic to be negligible (i.e. <1% of vNIC speed)? Yours, Lior. On 06/10/14 11:09, Shanil S wrote:

Hi Lior, Thanks for your reply. We have set network QOS as 2Mbps for the VM, i have attached the screenshots please check it. -- Regards Shanil On Mon, Oct 6, 2014 at 5:15 PM, Lior Vernia <lvernia@redhat.com> wrote:

From your screenshots it seems that there really isn't significant
Hi Shanil, QoS doesn't have much to do with this, I'm more interested in knowing how much traffic is in fact going in to and out of the VM (QoS defines limits, not actual traffic). traffic on the VMs. Could you try initiating a file transfer between two VMs that would last more than 15 seconds (this is the rate at which the GUI is updated) and see if the GUI reflects the traffic in that case?

Hi Lior, As per your suggestion i have created two vm's with ip .46 and .47 and transfer 100MB file from vm1 (.46) to vm2(.47) but even after 7 min of transaction ovirt portal doesn't display any stats or network usages... I have attached the screenshots pleas have a look at this. -- Regards Shanil On Tue, Oct 7, 2014 at 2:33 PM, Lior Vernia <lvernia@redhat.com> wrote:

Hi Shanil, This file transfer should have been below the traffic threshold to be displayed; as you can see in your third screenshot, the average transfer rate was 213 KBps, which is about 1.5 Mbps, which is about 0.15% of the NICs' speed - whereas you'd only see traffic above 1%. You would need a higher-intensity transfer to verify... And in fact, using your QoS settings, you will never see any traffic, as your traffic limit is only 0.2% of the NICs' speed! And for future reference, when you take screenshots of the VM/interfaces secondary tab, it's best that you also click on the specific VM interface that should see the traffic - so its RX/TX rate is displayed in the "statistics" tab at the bottom-right.
