[ANN] oVirt 3.4.4 Release is now available
by Sandro Bonazzola 30 Sep '14

30 Sep '14

The oVirt development team is pleased to announce the general availability of oVirt 3.4.4 as of Sep 23th 2014. This release solidifies oVirt as a leading KVM management application and open source alternative to VMware vSphere. oVirt is available now for Fedora 19 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 (or similar). This release of oVirt includes numerous bug fixes. See the release notes [1] for a list of the new features and bugs fixed. The existing repository ovirt-3.4 has been updated for delivering this release without the need of enabling any other repository, however since we introduced package signing you need an additional step in order to get the public keys installed on your system if you're upgrading from an older release. Please refer to release notes [1] for Installation / Upgrade instructions. Please note that mirrors will need a couple of days before being synchronized. 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-3.4.repo commenting the mirror line and removing the comment on baseurl line. A new oVirt Live ISO will be available too[2].

physical disk management for gluster in vdsm
by Balamurugan Arumugam 29 Sep '14

29 Sep '14

Hi All, Currently gluster management in ovirt is not complete if disks in hosts are not formatted/mounted. It expects those actions done prior in the host added to ovirt. We have a requirement to manage physical disks by 1. identify and populate physical disks. 2. identify and manage hardware raids. 3. create thick and thin logical volumes in unused physical disks. 4. format and mount logical volumes. 5. fstab management for new logical volumes. To have this feature, I would like to start a discussion here to explore possible options suitable for vdsm/engine. We have done a small PoC with OpenLMI[1] by having verbs in vdsm to achieve this. Also we explored ovirt-engine directly calling tog-pegasus/cim-server to get cim object to avoid two level of hopes ("ovirt-engine calls vdsm <-> vdsm calls openlmi locally <-> openlmi does the job" than "ovirt-engine calls vdsm <-> openlmi does the job") which also works. I would like to get your feedback about the PoC and suggestions/ideas how physical disk management can be. Regards, Bala [1] http://openlmi.org/

Remote DataCenter/Cluster
by Sahina Bose 28 Sep '14

28 Sep '14

Hi, We ran into a requirement where we need to mark a DataCenter or Cluster as remote. This is for the feature Gluster Geo-replication management - where the same oVirt instance will be managing both the master volume and as well as the remote site volume The reason we want to call out a Datacenter as remote, is to ensure that the polling frequency on this is different from one that is co-located. Is there a similar requirement for virtualization? thanks sahina

can't clone vm from export domain via rest/json
by Sven Kieske 26 Sep '14

Hi, I need some devel power here: this is on ovirt 3.3.3 el6 (yes I know, I need to upgrade..) error while cloning a vm from export to local storage data domain: POST https://REDACTED/api/storagedomains/e89fdbcb-cb51-42b7-b42c-7f4f0ec1f580/vm… { "storageDomain":{"id":"15679d40-0f20-4a0e-9880-eb5795cb8d1e","name":"LOCAL_DATA_DOMAIN_NAME"}, "cluster":{"id":"e65dc5f5-61e6-4d17-a5bf-33c677d129c7"}, "vm":{"name":"VM_NAME_1"}, "clone":true } ANSWER: { "storageDomain":{ "name":"LOCAL_DATA_DOMAIN_NAME", "id":"15679d40-0f20-4a0e-9880-eb5795cb8d1e" }, "cluster":{ "id":"e65dc5f5-61e6-4d17-a5bf-33c677d129c7" }, "vm":{ "name":"VM_NAME_2" }, "clone":true, "status":{ "state":"failed" }, "fault":{ "reason":"Operation Failed", "detail":"[action type failed import clone not collapsed]" } } why does it fail? this vm was exported from this storage domain onto the export domain and should then get re-imported as another vm-name is this because of lacking/inconsistent json support in 3.3.z? until now we were able to reverse engineer all needed functionality via json. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Regards Sven Kieske Systemadministrator Mittwald CM Service GmbH & Co.

Building vdsm within Fedora
by Dan Kenigsberg 26 Sep '14

26 Sep '14

Since Vdsm was open-sourced, it was built and deployed via Fedora. Recently [http://gerrit.ovirt.org/31214] vdsm introduced a spec-file dependency onf qemu-kvm-rhev, and considered to backport it to the ovirt-3.4 brach. Requiring qemu-kvm-rhev, which is not part of Fedora's EPEL6 branch, violates Fedora's standards. So basically we have two options: 1. Revert the qemu-kvm-rhev dependency. 2. Drop vdsm from EPEL6 (or completely from Fedora); ship Vdsm only within the oVirt repositories. A third option would be to have one rpm, with qemu-kvm-rhev, shipped in ovirt, and another without it - shipped in Fedora. I find this overly complex and confusing. I favor option 2. The Fedora deployment platform served us well for a long time, but now that ovirt is maturing, we no longer need it for building vdsm. This has the added benefit of removing the need to pass through Fedora's ghastly gateway when adding a Vdsm dependency. Sandro, what should be done in order to build Vdsm by ovirt, occording to the most up-to-date tag in a stable branch? Does anybody object this? If no one does, we would stop updating Vdsm in Fedora, and obsolete it in the future. Regards, Dan.
