The bug tracker [1] shows no blocking bugs for the release There are still 56 bugs [2] targeted to 3.4.2. Excluding node and documentation bugs we still have 27 bugs [3] targeted to 3.4.2. Maintainers / Assignee: - Please add the bugs to the tracker if you think that 3.4.2 should not be released without them fixed. - Please update the target to any next release for bugs that won't be in 3.4.2: it will ease gathering the blocking bugs for next releases.

Ovirt Guest Agent Windows 7
by Jeff Clay 09 Jun '14

09 Jun '14

I have the spice guest agent/tools installed, but I'm reading that I also need to install/setup the ovirt-guest-agent to get proper reporting of resources, etc. I'm following the instructions in https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-guest-agent/blob/master/ovirt-guest-agent/RE… I am confused at "Update the AGENT_CONFIG global variable in OVirtGuestService.py to point to right configuration location." I can find the file without issue, the value I'm requested to change has a default value of: AGENT_CONFIG = 'ovirt-guest-agent.ini' I cannot locate a file named ovirt-guest-agent.ini within the C:\ovirt-guest-agent-master\ovirt-guest-agent folder so I'm not sure what to set this value to.

Would you help me? http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Self=5FHosted=5FEngine My problem is: First, I am Following the tutorial, In machine 'Srv1', type these two=20 command to install oVirt Host & Engine: # yum install ovirt-hosted-engine-setup # hosted-engine --deploy Then I success create a Engine, and I can use web browser to access the=20 Engine in other PC. Then, in second machine 'Srv2', type these two command to install second=20 oVirt Host. # yum install ovirt-hosted-engine-setup # hosted-engine --deploy My first problem is: in second machine 'Srv2', after issue command 'hosted-engine --deploy',=20 and it prompt '[ INFO ] Waiting for VDSM hardware info'.

My second problem is: I use another PC web browser connect to my oVirt Engine, and ask Engine to = add Host 'Srv2' into Cluster. It is done and successful. But when I try to = keep 'Srv2' is running, and make 'Srv1' to reboot. I found that I cannot=20 connect to oVirt Engine anymore. I try to type 'hosted-engine --vm-start'=20 in first machine 'Srv1', but it has error and cannot start my Engine=20 virtual machine. Therefore, I cannot connect to my Engine anymore. How=20 should I do now? My three question is: How to make my Engine become HA? Since when 'Srv1' reboot, the Engine=20 cannot jump to 'Srv2' automatically. Thank you very much.

Memory and swap issue
by Jeff Clay 06 Jun '14

06 Jun '14

I'm getting the following error trying to start a VM. I have 64 gb of RAM on this host. I got this error once before and found that my swap partition was only 2gb or so. I increased the swap size to 124GB and the problem went away. Below is the error when trying to start a VM and below that is what my output from "free -g". I don't see why I'm getting a swap file error when there's plenty of it available. - Cannot run VM. Host swap percentage is above the defined threshold. - Check your configuration parameters for Host Swap Percentage. - Cannot run VM. There is no host that satisfies current scheduling constraints. See below for details: - The host USARPAOVRTHOST02 did not satisfy internal filter Memory.
