[Engine-devel] Error message while trying to delete default cluster
by Shubhendu Tripathi 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

Hi, While trying to delete the Default cluster in oVirt it shows the below error message - "Cannot remove default Host Cluster. Cannot remove Cluster. One or more Template(s) are still associated with it" But in the case of RHSC, Templates are not used and this message is not relevant. [1]. Can we opt for not installing the templates while engine setup? And would it be having any impact/consequences ? Kindly provide your thoughts and possibility of the same. Thanks and Regards, Shubhendu PS: [1]: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1019838

[Engine-devel] Consideration of the permission type
by Piotr Kliczewski 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

Hello everyone, I am working on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=878812 bug so I played a bit with the code to understand how permission system works and noticed few things (please correct me if I am wrong): - In order to login to admin portal user need to have one of the admin roles (role_type = 1) - system tree is built using number of queries - before running each query permission validation happens so the code checks whether the user is able to run a query - I noticed that none of the queries required to build system tree is admin query and validation depends on result of getUser().isAdmin() (Please check http://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=ovirt-engine.git;a=blob;f=backend/manager/… line 123). This statement is always true for a user which was able to log in to admin portal. I was able to come up with following ways to solve this issue (please help to find the good enough): - fix verification - filter results of query - change a bit permission model. The structure is quite flat (there are only 2 role_types) or we could go with containers as it was proposed in bug description. Thanks, Piotr

[Engine-devel] OpenLdap and Kerberos for oVirt on f19
by Piotr Kliczewski 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

Hello everyone, I working on configuring OpenLdap 2.4.36 with kerberos for oVirt running on f19. I follow following instruction: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=967327#c5 Please note that the instruction was written for f18. In order to have step 18 working from command line I had to set SASL_NOCANON to off. The reason was that I got: ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Invalid credentials (49) additional info: SASL(-13): authentication failure: GSSAPI Failure: gss_accept_sec_context When SASL_NOCANON is off I can search the ldap but have the same issue from java code: I got javax.naming.AuthenticationException: [LDAP: error code 49 - SASL(-13): authentication failure: GSSAPI Failure: gss_accept_sec_context]. Have this when connecting using engine-manage-domains (http://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=ovirt-engine.git;a=blob;f=backend/manager/… line 84). Can you please point me where is my config issue? I copied engine-devel for reference. Thanks, Piotr

Hi, Looking at bugzilla, there are 366 bugs without a target release. Some of them are in POST state but I'm pretty sure they should be in ON_QA or CLOSED state. A lot of them haven't a whiteboard set. Please review the bug list and help to scrub and triage them: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&… Thanks -- Sandro Bonazzola Better technology.

[Engine-devel] Migrating an existing installation to hosted engine
by Yedidyah Bar David 13 Nov '13

13 Nov '13

Hi all, A message with the same subject was sent to arch around a month ago, see [1]. In short, it suggested two approaches: 1. Use p2v (or v2v) 2. Clean install of OS/engine software and use backup/restore. Following that, I pushed a few changes for engine-backup and engine-setup, with the intention of doing, briefly: 1. hosted-engine --deploy on new host 2. Install OS/software on new vm 3. backup on old engine machine 4. On new vm, do restore, which only restores the database and files, followed by engine-setup, which will fix whatever else needs to be fixed. Some of the changes are still pending, and are under some controversy. See [2], [3], [4]. A more detailed description of the suggested migration path is in [5]. What do you think? Should engine-setup do as little as possible to the system, or as much as needed to save the admin from any manual work? Should engine-setup doing an upgrade do the same as a new setup, or just whatever that's needed to adapt the config/database to the new code? A specific example: if admin chose during initial setup to automatically configure the firewall (iptables/firewalld), should upgrade update it again, or not touch it? Should engine-backup do all these things when doing a restore? Should we have some other utility to do these things? Should we merely document them and let the admin do this manually?

[Engine-devel] UI Refresh synchronization
by Alexander Wels 12 Nov '13

12 Nov '13

Hi guys, I am working on providing our users with a better experience in regards to refresh synchronization. Quite often it will happen that you as a user will do a particular action, and it takes a whole refresh cycle for you to see the UI updated in response to that action. For instance if you remove a VM in the webadmin and click the ok button in the UI, the grid will still show the VM until the next refresh cycle, not when the VM is actually removed. I have created a wiki page that outlines the issues, and the ways we are intending to solve these issues [1]. Feel free to comment/e-mail/etc to let me know what you guys think.

[Engine-devel] GWT DevMode plugin stopped working in Firefox 24+
by Greg Sheremeta 12 Nov '13

12 Nov '13

I submitted a bug. Please star it if this affects you. https://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=8423 Detailed description (please be as specific as possible): The DevMode plugin does not work (Development Mode requires the GWT Developer Plugin). I encountered this in Firefox 24. Upgraded to Firefox 25 and plugin 1.25, still doesn't work. Workaround if you have one: roll back to Firefox 23. Greg Greg Sheremeta Red Hat, Inc.
