help, manager hard drive died (3.3.4)
by David Smith 12 Jun '14

12 Jun '14

So the ovirt manager hard disk died, 3.3.4 version, i can't get it to spin up to get any data off. I have an old copy of the manager database which was living on the manager machine. What is the best procedure for restoring my ovirt setup? I've not been able to import the data store, only export and iso in the past. Thanks in advance, David

ISO
by Moritz Mlynarek 11 Jun '14

11 Jun '14

Hello, after installing ovirt 3.4 I tried to add an ISO File to my ovirt system. But there was no local-iso-share. The command "engine-iso-uploader list" told me "ERROR: There are no ISO storage domains". I tried to create a new domain (ISO / Local on Host) but I was not able to choose a HOST. Sorry for my poor english. :( Moritz Mlynarek

ISO_DOMAIN can't be attached
by Peter Haraldson 11 Jun '14

11 Jun '14

Hi I have one Engine, one node. Fresh install of oVirt 3.4 on new CentOS 6.5. Engine holds ISO_DOMAIN, created automatically during setup. The ISO_DOMAIN exists under Default -> Storage. When trying to attach it, it is visible in web interface a few seconds as "locked", then disappears. Log says: ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.storage.NFSStorageHelper] (org.ovirt.thread.pool-6-thread-24) [5a5288b3] The connection with details ctmgm0.certitrade.net:/ct/isos failed because of error code 477 and error message is: problem while trying to mount target (thanks for that error message... ) And a bit down: ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.storage.AttachStorageDomainToPoolCommand] (org.ovirt.thread.pool-6-thread-27) [43f2f913] Command org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.storage.AttachStorageDomainToPoolCommand throw Vdc Bll exception.

Sanlock issues after upgrading to 3.4
by Jairo Rizzo 11 Jun '14

11 Jun '14

Hello, I have a small 2-node cluster setup running Glusterfs in replication mode : CentOS v6.5 kernel-2.6.32-431.17.1.el6.x86_64 vdsm-4.14.6-0.el6.x86_64 ovirt-engine-3.4.0-1.el6.noarch (on 1 node) Basically I was running ovirt-engine v 3.3 for months fine and then upgraded to latest version of 3.3.X two days ago and could not join the nodes to the cluster due to a version mismatch,basically this: https://www.mail-archive.com/users@ovirt.org/msg17241.html . After trying to correct this problem I ended up upgrading to 3.4 which created a new and challenng problem for me. Every couple of hours I get error messages like this: Jun 7 13:40:01 hv1 sanlock[2341]: 2014-06-07 13:40:01-0400 19647 [2341]: s3 check_our_lease warning 70 last_success 19577 Jun 7 13:40:02 hv1 sanlock[2341]: 2014-06-07 13:40:02-0400 19648 [2341]: s3 check_our_lease warning 71 last_success 19577 Jun 7 13:40:03 hv1 sanlock[2341]: 2014-06-07 13:40:03-0400 19649 [2341]: s3 check_our_lease warning 72 last_success 19577 Jun 7 13:40:04 hv1 sanlock[2341]: 2014-06-07 13:40:04-0400 19650 [2341]: s3 check_our_lease warning 73 last_success 19577 Jun 7 13:40:05 hv1 sanlock[2341]: 2014-06-07 13:40:05-0400 19651 [2341]: s3 check_our_lease warning 74 last_success 19577 Jun 7 13:40:06 hv1 sanlock[2341]: 2014-06-07 13:40:06-0400 19652 [2341]: s3 check_our_lease warning 75 last_success 19577 Jun 7 13:40:07 hv1 sanlock[2341]: 2014-06-07 13:40:07-0400 19653 [2341]: s3 check_our_lease warning 76 last_success 19577 Jun 7 13:40:08 hv1 sanlock[2341]: 2014-06-07 13:40:08-0400 19654 [2341]: s3 check_our_lease warning 77 last_success 19577 Jun 7 13:40:09 hv1 wdmd[2330]: test warning now 19654 ping 19644 close 0 renewal 19577 expire 19657 client 2341 sanlock_1e8615b0-7876-4a03-bdb0-352087fad0f3:1 Jun 7 13:40:09 hv1 wdmd[2330]: /dev/watchdog closed unclean Jun 7 13:40:09 hv1 kernel: SoftDog: Unexpected close, not stopping watchdog!

oVirt 3.4.2 Hosted
by Bob Doolittle 11 Jun '14

11 Jun '14

Hi, I'm taking a preview look at the 3.4.2 Release Notes. I see there is no mention of Hosted. Can we assume that means that the process for upgrading Hosted is the same as for traditional deployments? We know that installation is quite different... -Bob

Hacking in Ceph rather then Gluster.
by Nathan Stratton 10 Jun '14

10 Jun '14

So I understand that the news is still fresh and there may not be much going on yet in making Ceph work with ovirt, but I thought I would reach out and see if it was possible to hack them together and still use librdb rather then NFS. I know, why not just use Gluster... the problem is I have tried to use Gluster for VM storage for years and I still don't think it is ready. Ceph still has work in other areas, but this is one area where I think it shines. This is a new lab cluster and I would like to try to use ceph over gluster if possible. Unless I am missing something, can anyone tell me they are happy with Gluster as a backend image store? This will be a small 16 node 10 gig cluster of shared compute / storage (yes I know people want to keep them separate). ><> nathan stratton | vp technology | broadsoft, inc | +1-240-404-6580 | www.broadsoft.com

[ANN] oVirt 3.4.2 Release is now available
by Sandro Bonazzola 10 Jun '14

10 Jun '14

The oVirt development team is pleased to announce the general availability of oVirt 3.4.2 as of Jun 10th 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 Node and oVirt Live ISO will be available soon[2].
