[ACTION NEEDED] ovirt-3.4-snapshot not updated
by Sandro Bonazzola 22 May '14

22 May '14

Hi, looks like http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/publish_ovirt_rpms_nightly_3.4 is not publishing new 3.4 builds since May 20, 2014 12:01:06 AM The cause seems to be ovirt-engine 3.4 build failing: http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-engine_3.4_create-rpms_merged/ and last successful build not available anymore. I think we should change ovirt-engine_3.4_create-rpms_merged for preserving last successful build in any case. That, said, please check http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-engine_3.4_create-rpms_merged/label=fedo… It's failing while building permutations so it may be a memory / disk issue, but I'm not sure about it. We've 3.4.2 RC next week and we shouldn't have engine not building the week before. Thanks. -- Sandro Bonazzola Better technology. Faster innovation. Powered by community collaboration.

UX debug mode in chrome
by Alexander Wels 22 May '14

22 May '14

Hi, This is a warning for everyone using Chrome to run in debug mode for GWT debugging. As of Chrome 35, the plugin will no longer work under linux. It will simply say it no longer works. So if you see a Chrome update available and you want to debug, don't apply it. Alexander

[Bug fix of NUMA feature] Add vNode run in pNode runtime information
by Shi, Xiao-Lei (Bruce, HP Servers-PSC-CQ) 22 May '14

--_000_08AA403C8399104A89AF710307FA78AE24411BD5G5W2717americas_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi all, I'm working on the NUMA feature of oVirt. The feature is already merged in oVirt 3.5.0 alpha 1. Currently, it only ha= s the virtual numa node (vNode) pin to host numa node(pNode) information wh= ich is configured by user. We plan to collect the runtime information from = vdsm that vNode run in which pNodes. Since this information is dynamic and = changes more often, we want to let this information reported in the process= of vm stats report. According to the above requirement, we will do the following development in= both engine and vdsm: Vdsm side: 1. In vm module, we will add a function to collect and calculate the = real-time information that vNode run in pNodes. From caps module, we can ge= t the cpu mapping information of each pNode; from vm conf, we can get the v= cpu mapping information of each vNode; from libvirt api, we can get each vc= pu run in which physical cpu runtime. According to the information, we can = calculate the vNode run in pNodes information runtime. 2. Add a key in vm stat map to hold the information and report it to = engine. Engine side: 1. Currently we have the structure to store the vNode run in pNode in= formation. In the structure, we have a field "ispinned" to represent if the= vNode is configured by user to pin to the pNode, or it is runtime run in t= he pNode. Now we only need to parse the reported information from vdsm and = update it in db. We will open a bug to implement the requirement and merge it into 3.5.0. Any comments and suggestions are welcome.

[ANN] oVirt 3.5.0 Alpha is now available for testing
by Sandro Bonazzola 20 May '14

20 May '14

The oVirt team is pleased to announce that the 3.5.0 Alpha is now available for testing. Feel free to join us testing it! You'll find all needed info for installing it on the release notes page, already available on the wiki [1]. A new oVirt Node build will be available soon as well. Please note that mirrors will need a couple of days before being synchronized: they currently have the first build we prepared on 2014-05-16. If you want to be sure to use latest rpms and don't want to wait for the mirrors, you can edit /etc/yum.repos.d/ovirt-3.5.repo commenting the mirror line and removing the comment on baseurl line. Known Issues VDSM packages released with the first 3.5.0 alpha have version lower than the ones we had in 3.4.1 so they won't be updated. You can't add hosts to 3.5 clusters until a new VDSM build with 3.5 compatibility level will be released (All in One won't work).
