Does anyone see an issue with adding jQuery to GwtHostPage? Some PatternFly widgets require bootstrap.min.js which requires jQuery. Thanks, Greg Greg Sheremeta Red Hat, Inc. Sr. Software Engineer, RHEV Cell: 919-807-1086 gshereme(a)redhat.com

Python-GTK User Portal
by Amador Pahim 05 Jun '14

05 Jun '14

Olá, I'm running some tests with Raspberry Pi, trying to use it as a thin client to oVirt. My initial test was just open web User Portal using a browser. But RasPi limited performance is leading browser to repeatedly show the warning for "unresponsive script" before load the portal. Trying to have a lighter way to access oVirt with the same functions as in "Basic" User Portal, I wrote this Python-GTK client. Its performance in RasPi is quite acceptable currently. I'm wondering if you guys have any interest in putting the bits somewhere along with the project repositories. Maybe in "samples-portals"?

how to call the SW part of instance type?
by Tomas Jelinek 04 Jun '14

04 Jun '14

Hey all, in the instance type feature [1] there are two parts, the "instance types" (HW part of the machine) and the "something not sure how to call" (which is basically a disk image with some SW related metadata like OS type). It is inspired by the Amazon's "Instance Type" + "AMI". Currently, the handling of the HW part is merged upstream (some small parts missing but mostly there) but the software part is not. I'd like to start implementing it and wanted to ask the community how to call it. Normally it would be called "image", but since we already have images in oVirt it would be confusing. I see this options how to call it, please feel free to comment on them, vote for some or propose a new name (please keep in mind that the HW part is called "Instance Type"). - Instance Image - Software Profile - OMI (oVirt Machine Image) - System Image - ITI (Instance Type Image) Thank you, Tomas [1]: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Instance_Types

[Hackathon] oVirt session non-notes
by Dan Kenigsberg 04 Jun '14

04 Jun '14

I've used the occasion of http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Hackathon/May2014 to learn how Xen is managed, and to start scoping how it can be done within oVirt. I've laid out my impressions on http://www.ovirt.org/Xen; some of it may false. For example, up until few minutes ago, it stated that Xen is missing spice support. Feel free to fix it, it's a wiki. The bottom line is that, with a bit of help, and with limited feature set, oVirt can manage Xen-based hypervisors. I've posted a couple of Vdsm tweaks to support that http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/q/status:open+project:vdsm+branch:master+topic:xe… The nicest patch there is a brute script that munches an oVirt-generated libvirt domxml and strips it from anything that it finds offensive to libvirt's xl driver. http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/28353/1/vdsm_hooks/xen/before_vm_start.py The most painful of the things dropped is qcow2 images - I did not find a way to specify them for Xen domains (admittedly, I did not search too deep). Another hurdle was my failure to boot the guest from its cdrom. To have something running in the guest, I copied http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/updates/20/Images/x86_64… onto the VM disk volume. Plenty of other caveats are listed in http://www.ovirt.org/Xen#What.27s_not_Done. But hey, it's working!(ish) I'd like to thank the all nice and helpful people at the Xen hackathon (too many to mention by name!), who invited me there and helped me debug numerous failures and misconfigurations. Regards, Dan.

REST-API - supported user name formats
by Yair Zaslavsky 03 Jun '14

03 Jun '14

Hi, Do we need to support a format of user name like "profile\user" for REST-API authentication? (if you're not familiar with the term profile, I can ask the same about "domain\user" I see in the code it exists, but I was wonder whether it is really needed. Thanks for any thoughts on this, Yair
