hi,
im currently looking at the new incremental backup api that has been
part of the 4.4 and RHV 4.4-beta release. So far i was able to create
full/incremental backups and restore without any problem.
Now, using the backup_vm.py example from the ovirt-engine-sdk i get
the following is happening during a full backup:
1) imageio client api requests transfer
2) starts qemu-img to create a local qemu image with same size
3) starts qemu-nbd to serve this image
4) reads used extents from provided imageio source, passes data to
qemu-nbd process
5) resulting file is a thin provisioned qcow image with the actual
data of the VM's used space.
while this works great, it has one downside: if i backup a virtual
machine with lots of used extents, or multiple virtual machines at the
same time, i may run out of space, if my primary backup target is
not a regular disk.
Imagine i want to stream the FULL backup to tape directly like
backup_vm.py full [..] <vm_uuid> /dev/nst0
thats currently not possible, because qemu-img is not able to open
a tape device directly, given its nature of the qcow2 format.
So what iam basically looking for, is a way to download only the extents
from the imageio server that are really in use, not depending on qemu-*
tools, to be able to pipe the data somehwere else.
Standard tools, like for example curl, will allways download the full
provisioned image from the imageio backend (of course).
I noticed is that it is possible to query the extents via:
https://tranfer_node:54322/images/d471c659-889f-4e7f-b55a-a475649c48a6/exte…
As i failed to find them, are there any existing functions/api calls
that could be used to download only the used extents to a file/fifo
pipe?
So far, i played around with the _internal.io.copy function, beeing able
to at least read the data into a in memory BytesIO stream, but thats not
the solution to my "problem" :)
bye,
- michael
Hi,
I was unable to view your log file. But if its indeed an the issue please
run:
systemctl stop ovirt-engine-dwhd
ovirt_engine_history=# UPDATE history_configuration set var_datetime =
date_trunc('hour', now())- interval '2 hour' WHERE var_name =
'lastHourAggr';
ovirt_engine_history=# UPDATE history_configuration set var_datetime =
date_trunc('hour', now())- interval '1 day' WHERE var_name = 'lastDayAggr';
systemctl restart ovirt-engine-dwhd
If you would like me to review the errors please attach the dwh log file.
Best regards,

Hi all,
I am trying to verify fixes for ovirt-engine-rename, specifically for
OVN. Engine top patch is [1], OST patch [2]. Ran the manual job on
these [3].
In previous patches, OST failed in earlier tests. Now, it passed these
tests, so I hope that my patches are enough for what I am trying to
do. However, [3] did fail later, during test_hotplug_cpu - it set the
number of CPUs, then tried to connect to the VM, and timed out.
The logs imply that right after it changed the number of CPUs, the VM
was rebooted, apparently by libvirtd. Relevant log snippets:
vdsm [4]:

libvirtd [6] itself does not log anything relevant AFAICT, but at
least it shows that the above unknown process is itself:
2020-06-29 14:18:16.212+0000: 42224: error : qemuMonitorIO:620 :
internal error: End of file from qemu monitor
(Note that above line is from 3 minutes before the reboot, and the
only place in the log with '42224'. No other log there has 42224,
other than these and audit.log).
Any idea? Is this a bug in libvirt? vdsm? I'd at least expect
something in the log for such a severe step.
