Given the excitement around the oVirt launch, I wrote two blog posts on the "Open @ Cisco" blog covering oVirt, one last week during the workshop, one yesterday. They focus heavily on networking, I thought I would share them here: http://blogs.cisco.com/openatcisco/ovirt-kickoff-workshop/ http://blogs.cisco.com/openatcisco/openstack-quantum-at-the-ovirt-kickoff-w… Feel free to forward and share with others, comment, or send me feedback. Thanks! Kyle

[Users] Trouble making ovirt-node image
by Federico Alberto Sayd 07 Dec '11

07 Dec '11

Hello: I am trying to implement Ovirt in a testing datacenter. I have installed Ovirt-Engine from rpm on Fedora 16 and all is Ok. I can access the web management without problem. My problem is with Ovirt-Node. I followed the guide in: http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Node_Building. I used the same Fedora 16 installation for building the node iso. I followed all steps, but the iso creation failed. The docs dont say, but I had to install at least the ovirt-node-tools, I don't know if also I have to install ovirt-node rpm from $BASEDIR/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch The output of make ovirt-node-image.iso is in pastebin: http://pastebin.com/2U6NezuE There is not yet a prebuilt image of Ovirt available? Thanks! Any help is appreciated

[Users] Storage configuration
by Cristian Falcas 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

Hello list, Again I'm having truble with simple things. I don't know how to properly setup the Storage. Mainly I don't know how to define a location for the iso files to be used at installation time. Also, I want to ask if ovirt has the concept of virtual machine images: already installed OSs that can be fired up and used by any node without installation. I think only the MAC address should be updated for that. Best regards, Cristian Falcas

[Users] First Nightly build of ovirt-engine & VDSM + Installation Guides
by Ronen Angluster 23 Nov '11

23 Nov '11

Hello, We've published 2 guides that describe how to install & configure ovirt-engine & VDSM from a nightly build placed on ovirt.org's repository. http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Installing_ovirt_from_rpm http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Installing_VDSM_from_rpm Please note the following: 1. At the time, nightly builds are not going to be carried out "nightly", we will publish new versions from time to time until we'll establish a mature and working release process 2. The installation process contains interim steps and will change as we mature the ovirt-engine product's deployment and may change significantly between revisions. Regards, Ronen Angluster

Hi, as promised, wiki article is somewhat modified :) http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/OVirt I hope it answers all the questions you asked and I hope even more that you will be adding more problems and solutions to it. Next thing for me will be creating ebuild file binary JBoss, stay tuned... :)

I'm fully aware of network complexity, and the impact of supporting several distro's. This is exactly why I asked for a /generic/ approach, which will not pull in numerous packages which are distro or desktop-env specific. Having said that, I can tell you that last night I did some more investigations in Gentoo, and I was pleasantly surprised to see the following: emerge -DuNavt --with-bdeps=y --keep-going net-misc/networkmanager These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild N ] net-misc/networkmanager-0.8.4.0-r2 USE="bluetooth ppp -avahi -connection-sharing -dhclient -dhcpcd -doc -gnutls -nss -resolvconf" 1,634 kB [ebuild N ] net-misc/modemmanager-0.4 USE="policykit -doc -test" 435 kB Total: 2 packages (2 new), Size of downloads: 2,069 kB This means that network manager no longer pulls gnome-related packages, which is very good news. If this is the case in other distro's I think we can converge on this solution. I guess we only need some input from Suse / Ubuntu people to see if it works for them as well. -- /d "This message will self destruct in the future. Or not."

[Users] ovirt-node on Gentoo
by Dimitrije Zivkovic 21 Nov '11

21 Nov '11

Hi, after few hours of playing around with ovirt-node and following http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Ovirt_Quickstart guide, I've managed to get all the way to installing vdsm on gentoo server. At this point, it is not even the issue of creating the ebuild file for vdsm, the blocker for me was the following: - after compiling vdsm and installing it, order of files and install locations are clearly following redhat system - when starting vdsm by startup script (which is in /etc/rc.d/init.d, which, in turn, does not exists in Gentoo), from errors thrown at me I see that it is redhat startup script So, I will look through the code, when time allows, but if someone could help out by some info or advice, it would be appreciated... So far, I would start by porting /etc/init.d/functions from fedora and then continue to solve the problem with conf files being on different locations. Any thoughts on this? Is this the wa to go, in the first place? Dimitrije

[Users] FOSDEM & more general booth/promotion stuff.
by Robyn Bergeron 18 Nov '11

18 Nov '11

FOSDEM is the 4th and 5th of February. http://fosdem.org/2012/ I'd like to go ahead and reserve table space for us, but need to know if we have anyone who is willing to volunteer and hang out at the table and answer questions. Or better yet, if we have a few people who are willing to take turns doing some booth duty there. Also up for discussion: * We'll probably need a tablecloth * Would be nice to have some marketing materials (flyers, stickers, etc) * Super wish list: Have a hand-out disc capable of booting into multiple distros with oVirt packages ready to go * Have a demo of sorts available (machine remote, but a console available for playing) Please pipe up if you're planning on attending in some capacity! :) -Robyn

[Users] vdsm configuration
by Cristian Falcas 18 Nov '11

18 Nov '11

Hello all, Can someone point me to some documentation regarding vdsm (and if needed libvirt) configuration? How it is accessed by the ovirt-engine and how to set it to a certain ovirt-engine on the network. Currently my libvirt is complaining that it can't work with ssh-less vdsm and I have no idea how to set up the keys for vdsm. Also I have no idea how to define the storage: in ovirt or in vdsm? Who is reporting the disks/files available? I hope I understood correctly that only the vdsm package is needed to make the physical machine available for ovirt and only ovirt-engine is doing all the heavy work. Also, if the questions are too "RTFM", please let me know where I can find any help related to ovirt. Best regards, Cristian Falcas

[Users] Web UI and new version of SPICE
by Dimitrije Zivkovic 15 Nov '11

15 Nov '11

Hi, A question about SPICE. I noticed that web UI has some options regarding spice protocol. While updating software tonight, spice was upgraded from v.0.8 to v.0.10. My question is how is UI aware of new features in spice? Is it developed for particular version/features of spice? If there is new feature in spice, can the same version of UI use this new features in some way or is the new version of UI required? This could be important as I update system frequently. If version change of spice could somehow influence UI behaviour, than the policy on daily update should be changed... :)

[Users] oVirt features
by Dimitrije Zivkovic 14 Nov '11

Hi, I got oVirt up and running on my Gentoo server. What I would like to know is if there is some info page on current git version features of oVirt? For example, I would like to know what type of storage is supported as I could only see NFS type on webadmin. So am I doing something wrong or am I just blind? :) Also, if there is something I could help about related to Gentoo and oVirt, let me know...

[Users] ovirt vs RHEV-M
by Gary Scarborough 10 Nov '11

10 Nov '11

I see you have instructions for building the ovirt manager up on the wiki. My question is: How does this compare to what Red Hat is shipping in RHEL? Is the code base currently the same as what Red Hat is shipping? I am evaluating ovirt for possible deployment in a university setting and wondering if it would be better to pursue a RHEL subscription for our cluster. Any light you could shed on this would be very helpful. Thanks, Gary
