UI plugin REST API small update
by Vojtech Szocs 20 Jan '15

20 Jan '15

Hi guys, just a small update, two patches for UI plugin REST API integration [1,2] landed into master branch recently: * fixing "UI won't auto-logout due to user inactivity" issue: REST session keep-alive requests are now sent only if there was an operation (action/query) that refreshed Engine session * setting REST session timeout to 2 x UserSessionTimeOutInterval: this to ensure that REST session is always alive as long as the Engine session is alive, see Einav's detailed gerrit comment [2] (Jan 9 5:43 PM) for detailed explanation [1] http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/36622/ [2] http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/36737/ TL;DR - REST session for UI plugins should work as expected; as long as the user is logged in, all UI plugins should be able to utilize provided REST session. Regards, Vojtech

Number of VFs in oVirt SR-IOV
by Martin Polednik 19 Jan '15

19 Jan '15

Hello, Since dealing with SR-IOV, we've discovered the need to persist number of virtual functions for given virtual functions. The need is actually split into 2 parts: setting the number and persisting it. Our talks have pointed to 5 choices in persistence mechanisms: * let engine set the number when host becomes operational * implement mechanism in systemd/udev * create udev rule set * persist them inside VDSM * or actually let the system administrator handle this All of these choices except for the last still need the engine to do the initial set-up. I would like to hear your opinion on persistence mechanism and splitting the choice of mechanism and means of set-up. Since persistence is currently mostly required by networking team, I propose that [1] would be accepted as the means of set-up and in future, network team would figure out and implement their preferred way of persistence.

python-blivet requirement not available on el6
by Sandro Bonazzola 19 Jan '15

19 Jan '15

Hi, looks like vdsm added a dependency not available on EPEL 6. http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/repos_master_check-closure_merged/DISTRIBUTION… package: vdsm-4.17.0-283.gite127687.el6.x86_64 from check-custom-el6 unresolved deps: python-blivet package: vdsm-4.17.0-292.git0b55852.el6.x86_64 from check-custom-el6 unresolved deps: python-blivet Can you share some details about this requirement? Is anybody working with epel maintainer to get this in el6? -- Sandro Bonazzola Better technology. Faster innovation. Powered by community collaboration. See how it works at redhat.com

Updated Engine build options
by Vojtech Szocs 16 Jan '15

16 Jan '15

Hi guys, patch http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/36739/ just landed in master branch. It adds two new Makefile variables: # Maven JVM options. BUILD_JAVA_OPTS_MAVEN # GWT compiler & DevMode JVM options. BUILD_JAVA_OPTS_GWT Use BUILD_JAVA_OPTS_MAVEN to specify JVM arguments for main "mvn" command. Default value is "-XX:MaxPermSize=512M" which should be OK for most cases. Use BUILD_JAVA_OPTS_GWT to specify JVM arguments for GWT compiler & DevMode. Default value is "" which translates into following fallback value: # gwt.jvmArgs fallback in frontend/webadmin/modules/pom.xml -Xms1024M -Xmx8192M -XX:PermSize=512M -XX:MaxPermSize=1024M Custom BUILD_JAVA_OPTS_GWT (non-empty string) value will be translated into -Dgwt.jvmArgs="..." when invoking main "mvn" command. TL;DR Engine build should work without any JVM argument tuning as before. If you're running into "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError" during the build, we suggest to limit max. simultaneous GWT permutation worker threads to 1 and tune GWT compiler JVM arguments according to your system: $ export BUILD_JAVA_OPTS_MAVEN="-XX:MaxPermSize=512M -Dgwt.compiler.localWorkers=1" $ export BUILD_JAVA_OPTS_GWT="-Xms1024M -Xmx4096M -XX:MaxPermSize=1024M" Regards, Vojtech
