Export domain. Same LUN but different NFS server : update SQL table?
by Nicolas Ecarnot 16 Apr '14

16 Apr '14

Hi, Our NFS storage domain is stored as a LUN, and served via a NFS server. I have to change this NFS server, but I don't need to change the LUN. After setting this NFS export domain in maintenance and detached, is it safe to just update the database table "storage_server_connections" and restart the engine? Regards, PS : I read no answer to this : http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2014-March/022610.html -- Nicolas Ecarnot

off topic = newbie with bugzilla, gerrit and ovirt VDSM 4.14
by Tamer Lima 16 Apr '14

16 Apr '14

Hi, I have a problem with an automatic yum vdsm upgrade (4.13 to 4.14) on ovirt 3.3 : Host x.x.x.x is installed with VDSM version (4.14) and cannot join cluster Default which is compatible with VDSM versions [4.13,4.9,4.11,4.12,4.10]. I am searching the solution and one of them (from bz Bug 1083008 ) points to gerrit site(http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/23456/) I do not have any experience in solving bugs, neither bz, gerrit, github.... How to initialize in this world and solve the ovirt problem ? another thing : does downgrade or remove vdms package excludes the installed virtual machines ? I know about ovirt 3.4 is the new release, but I want to learn how to solve some bugs when new releases is not launched; (off course I am afraid to upgrade to ovirt 3.4 too :) ) Tamer

Hi, I configured Network QoS in my oVirt 3.4 setup, but can't start vms.

[Users] Updating AIO from 3.3.4 to 3.4
by Gianluca Cecchi 16 Apr '14

16 Apr '14

Hello, I know that AIO setup is only for experimenting and trying but I find it very useful in several situations. So having a 3.3.4 All-In_one installation on fedora19 and wanting to update it to 3.4 I have some doubts. In release notes I see for general updates: On Fedora 19 you'll need to enable fedora-updates repository for having updated openstack packages --> OK. It is normally already enabled On Fedora 19, you'll need to enable fedora-virt-preview repository for using Fedora 19 as node on 3.4 clusters --> how do I managed this? This is indeed a node too, so I have to enable virt-preview for it? Correct? BTW: Is this note still true in general or did the related virt packages go into fedora-updates, or is it planned in coming days/weeks? When engine-setup is run and detects that a newer version is available and outputs that I have to run yum update ovirt-engine-setup is it correct to say that in AIO setups I should actually run yum update ovirt-engine-setup ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-allinone or is it the latest package not crucial to be updated before new engine-setup is run? At the end of engine update can I simply put the AIO server into maintenance (as a node) and run "yum update" so that vdsm (aka node) packages are updated too and so the server will become a 3.4 enabled node after reboot? Thanks, Gianluca
