Move to Jboss Wildfly - planned for Monday, June 22nd
by Oved Ourfali 23 Jun '15

23 Jun '15

Hi all! On Monday, June 22nd, 11:00 CET, we plan to drop JBoss 7.1 support in oVirt 3.6 and move to Jboss WildFly 8.2 (we're still doing final verifications, but it looks promising). This will allow us to support Fedora 22 properly, and in future versions to leverage some new and cool features. In addition, Jboss WildFly 8.2 works with OpenJDK 1.8 so you can easily use it for development on newer distributions where OpenJDK 1.7 is not available (Fedora 21 and 22, for example). When the patch [1] is merged, you will need WildFly 8.2 to be able to develop oVirt engine 3.6. Please use following guideline and update your development environment: I. Using WildFly 8.2 for oVirt 3.6 development 1. Enable ovirt-master-snapshot-static repository on your development machine [ovirt-master-snapshot-static] name=Latest oVirt master additional nightly snapshot baseurl=http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-master-snapshot-static/rpm/@DI… enabled=1 skip_if_unavailable=1 gpgcheck=0 Please replace "@DIST@" with "fc" for Fedora or "el" for Centos/RHEL 2. Install WildFly packages: yum install ovirt-engine-wildfly ovirt-engine-wildfly-overlay 3. Rebase your patches and build oVirt engine (assuming "~/ovirt-engine" as destination) make install-dev 5. Setup WildFly overlay (assuming "~/ovirt-engine" as destination) echo "ENGINE_JAVA_MODULEPATH=\"/usr/share/ovirt-engine-wildfly-overlay/modules:\${ENGINE_JAVA_MODULEPATH}\"" \ > ~/ovirt-engine/etc/ovirt-engine/engine.conf.d/20-setup-jboss-overlay.conf 6. Execute setup cd ~/ovirt-engine ./bin/engine-setup 7. Start engine service cd ~/ovirt-engine ./share/ovirt-engine/services/ovirt-engine/ovirt-engine.py start II. Using JBoss 7.1.1 for 3.5 environment Using JBoss 7.1.1 on 3.5 is still possible, by doing the following: 1. Install JBoss 7.1.1 RPM from ovirt-master-snapshot-static repo using yum install ovirt-engine-jboss-as 2. Build oVirt engine 3.5 with your backported feature (assuming "~/ovirt-engine" as destination) make install-dev 3. Execute setup cd ~/ovirt-engine ./bin/engine-setup--jboss-home=/usr/share/ovirt-engine-jboss-as 4. Start engine service cd ~/ovirt-engine ./share/ovirt-engine/services/ovirt-engine/ovirt-engine.py start Once merged, we will send an E-mail to make sure you're all aware, and that you can do the steps described above. We're here for any issue you might have (specifically Martin who is responsible for this effort, and myself). Don't hesitate to contact us for any issue, either by mail or irc (mperina or oved). Regards, Oved [1] https://gerrit.ovirt.org/40152

Hi, Summer is here and vacations are near! Have you got some free time and do you want to get involved in oVirt project? Do you like the idea of having fresh disk images of recent distribution in oVirt Gluster repository? You can help us by testing existing online images (like https://getfedora.org/en/cloud/download/) ensuring they works with cloud-init or creating one yourself and report your success to devel(a)ovirt.org. We'll be happy to upload the images once these are ready. Do you like Debian and do you have some programming skill? Help us getting VDSM running on it! Debian Jessie has been released a couple of weeks ago and it's a good time for giving it a try. You can follow the progress here: http://www.ovirt.org/VDSM_on_Debian Here are some bugs you can hopefully fix in less that one day or you can just try to reproduce providing info: Bug ID Status Whiteboard Summary 1065350 POST integration hosted-engine should prompt a question at the user when the host was already a host in the engine 1059952 NEW integration hosted-engine --deploy (additional host) will fail if the engine is not using the default self-signed CA 1083104 ASSIGNED integration engine-setup --offline does not update versionlock 1221176 NEW integration hosted-engine accepts FQDNs with underscore while the engine correctly fails on that 1200948 NEW integration hosted-engine-setup should validate the network interface name Do you want something easier?

Then oVirt infra team is looking for you!, join the infra team and dive in to do the newest and coolest devops tools today! Here are some of our open tasks you can help with: https://ovirt-jira.atlassian.net/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=1&project… You don't have programming skills, not enough time for DevOps but you want still to contribute? Here are some bugs you can take care of, also without writing a line of code: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=product%3Aovirt%20white… Do you prefer to test things? We have some test cases[5] you can try using nightly snapshots[6]. You may also help testing: Bug 1234257 - Test upgrade path from EL6 with oVirt 3.5.z to EL7 Do you want to contribute test cases? Most of the features[7] included in oVirt are missing a test case, you're welcome to contribute one! Is this the first time you try to contribute to oVirt project? You can start from here [1][2]! You don't know gerrit very well? You can find some more docs here [3]. Any other question about development? Feel free to ask on devel(a)ovirt.org or on irc channel[4].

Reminder: Fedora 20 end of life on 2015-06-23
by Sandro Bonazzola 22 Jun '15

22 Jun '15

Hi, just a reminder that Fedora 20 end of life tomorrow[1]. We're still building rpms targeted to Fedora 20 and we still have servers running on Fedora 20 which won't receive security updates anymore. Infra please consider to upgrade / re-provision servers / slaves this week. Since oVirt 3.5 supports Fedora only up to Fedora 20 I think we'll have to continue building packages for it until 3.6 will be out. For 3.6 I suggest to keep Fedora 20 builds until Wildfly support will be in. [1] https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/announce/2015-May/003267.html -- Sandro Bonazzola Better technology.

Live export/import
by Christopher Pereira 21 Jun '15

21 Jun '15

Hi, I would like to migrate a VM between two different ovirt installations with minimum down time. Using a export domain is slow (requires copying twice) and requires to stop the VM. It seems like the best option is to 1) create a snapshot, 2) transfer the backing chain images and OVF files to the destination storage domain 3) stop the VM, 4) transfer the active snapshot and 5) import the VM from the destination storage domain. Can you please comment and suggest other alternatives? Thanks.

Re: [ovirt-devel] Live export/import

I attached a copy of a gluster data storage domain (containing VM images and OVF files) to another 3.6 alpha ovirt installation, but the "Virtual Machines" and "Templates" tabs are empty. Any hint for debugging or known issues?
