Re: [Users] Fwd: Re: Help: Problem uploading the ISO file on engine

The ovirt-iso-uploader log only has one line: 2014-01-13 19:08:05::INFO::engine-iso-uploader::1067::root:: Start uploading CentOS-6.4-x86_64-netinstall.iso This is version 3.3.2-1.el6 My immediate question is how I can kill the upload process without rebooting the engine box? So I can try to reproduce the problem again. It's probably in a "sleep but not interrupt" state. None of the usual kill -9 commands worked. My NFS ISO domain has also been put in the "inactive" state most likely due to this problem. Thanks. David ----- Original Message -----

Hi,
which engine version? anything in engine.log?

(I honestly don't know if there's any logging for the iso uploader?).
yes there is, in /var/log/ovirt-iso-uploader dir.
I never encountered such a problem.
Same here. Can you reproduce using -v flag when running iso uploader?

Hi,
I copied a Centos netinstall ISO file to a directory on my engine
machine to get ready for installation. Then I used
engine-iso-uploader upload -i ISO_DOMAIN
CentOS-6.4-x86_64-netinstall.iso
to upload or put it into the proper ISO domain directory. However this
command now totally stuck. Even kill -9 won't be able to do anything. Moreover now my ISO domain in the DC seems dead or becomes inactive too.
What happened? Is there any way to recover from this point without
rebooting everything?

I think that connectivity to NFS server may have gone down while uploading the ISO image. That may have caused NFS ISO domain change the state to "inactive" and caused iso uploader to change its execution state to "D". But IIRC in such case kill -9 should work. Federico, do you have any suggestion?
Thanks.

Sandro, My upload process basically becomes a zombie that can't even be killed by root. The ISO domain remains in inactive state forever. The only recovery option is to reboot. Another question: Why can't we put the upload function inside the web portal admin? David ----- Original Message -----

Hi, please file an RFE (request for enhancement) into ovirts bugzilla at bugzilla.redhat.com and I'm pretty sure this will get implemented (maybe for 3.5)? I might to add that it would be cool to use this feature via REST-API (using HTTP POST). Am 15.01.2014 16:36, schrieb David Li:
