Hi, I try to install Windows 8 32 bit on our oVirt 3.3.2 environmet. I googled that two CPU Flags (SEP and NX) have to be set. But I cannot manipulate the CPU Flags in the GUI. Is there an other way to set the SEP and NX Flags for the VM? Best Regards, Michael

Well, maybe check with a linux distribution first: cat /proc/cpuinfo shows you that at least NX gets passed through (on Intel Nehalem at least). HTH Am 11.03.2014 09:42, schrieb Michael Wagenknecht:

Yes that's right. But I need the SEP Flag too. Am 11.03.2014 10:23, schrieb Sven Kieske:

then assuming qemu-kvm is up to date, it should expose sep to the guest if exists on the host.

Well, I got SEP flag on my compute node, the cluster level is 3.3 engine is 3.3.3-2.el6 however in my centos 6.5 vm I got no sep flag this is my qemu-kvm version: rpm -qa | grep qemu-kvm qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.415.el6_5.4.x86_64 yum update qemu-kvm shows me, there is a newer version: 0.12.1.2-2.415.el6_5.5 the changelog states: 2014-02-25 - Miroslav Rezanina <mrezanin@redhat.com> - 0.12.1.2-2.415.el6_5.5 - kvm-monitor-Cleanup-mon-outbuf-on-write-error.patch [bz#1069239] - Resolves: bz#1069239 (QMP socket breaks on unexpected close) Which leads to this BZ, which seems to have nothing to do at all with this flag: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1069239 Am 11.03.2014 15:06, schrieb Itamar Heim:

I don't know to what you are pointing here directly, but I think you mean the qemu commandline? in fact it is: /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -name centosbootstrap -S -M rhel6.4.0 but when I check the webadmin GUI the correct OS is selected: "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x x64" as you might guess it's not paid RHEL but CentOS.

change it in config to rhel6.5.0. its not technically a bug, since ovirt 3.3 GA'd before rhel 6.5 iirc. the SEP flag will only work on -m rhel6.5.0 to preserve backward compatibility (one host got upgraded to 6.5, another is still 6.4).

right... just remembered this is preserved at cluster level on first host joining the cluster to support both fedora and .el6 without manual intervention. do you have at cluster level an emulation mode field? omer/roy - is there an easy way to change cluster level emulation mode?

and now you say you have to switch it by hand?
Which statement is true? If it's the "default", it should be set already and I would consider this a bug, wouldn't you?
sorry, i confused the RHEV default, which GA post rhel 6.5, with the ovirt one which GA pre-6.5.

If I change the machine type from rhel6.4.0 to rhel6.5.0 in the xml file of the guest with a hook script, then the SEP Flag is set. Am 12.03.2014 10:32, schrieb Michael Wagenknecht:

Cluster Version is 3.3 and I restart the engine after running the engine-config command.
right... just remembered this is preserved at cluster level on first host joining the cluster to support both fedora and .el6 without manual intervention. do you have at cluster level an emulation mode field?
omer/roy - is there an easy way to change cluster level emulation mode?
No I can't find an emulation mode field.

it is set according to the host capabilities and engine config, it is not exposed to the user, so can only be changed in the db. by default, the config for 3.3 is rhel-6.4, so this is what we set for the cluster: engine-config --get ClusterEmulatedMachines --cver 3.3 rhel6.4.0,pc-1.0,pseries you can manually change in the db the emulation for a specific cluster: update vds_groups set emulated_machine='rhel6.5.0' where name='<cluster name>';

With the db update from Omer the SEP Flag is set and I can install Win 8 32 bit. Thank you all very much. You are great!! Am 12.03.2014 13:49, schrieb Omer Frenkel:

not without db intervention. I opened a bug [1] to change it so we would be able to reset the cluster value meanwhile: psql engine engine -c "update vds_groups set emulated_machine ='${value}' where vds_group_id = '${vds_group_id}'" if ${value} is blank than your emulated machine value would be a match between the config value and the host value [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1058751
