02 Feb '15

Hello All, We are using NFS shared storage between hosts,and have running vms. Now we are planning to remove existing disks and replace it with with different disks. Is there any way we can add one more NFS say NFS2 and migrate all volumes to NFS2 while we upgrade primary NFS,is it supported?

oVirt 3.6 Feature: Cumulative Network Usage Statistics
by Lior Vernia 01 Feb '15

01 Feb '15

Hello users and developers, Just put up a feature page for the aforementioned feature; in summary, to report total RX/TX statistics for hosts and VMs in oVirt. This has been requested several times on the users mailing list, and is especially useful for accounting in VDI deployments. You're more than welcome to review the feature page: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Cumulative_RX_TX_Statistics Note that this only deals with network usage - it'll be great if we have similar features for CPU and disk usage! Yours, Lior.

3.5 -> 3.5.1 upgrade issue
by Alan Murrell 01 Feb '15

01 Feb '15

I noticed I didn't have the reports installed, and thought in addition to installing thm I would upgrade my 3.5.0.1 installation to 3.5.1. I did a 'yum install engine-setup-dwh engine-setup-reports' and when those installed, I ran 'yum upgrade engine-setup'. This may have been my mistake. Anyway, once everything got downloaded and installed, I ran a screen session then ran 'engine-setup'. I answered the questions (leaving mostly the defaults) and let it go. The process usually gets to '[ INFO ] Deploying Jasper' then I lose my SSH session. No problem, I can just log right back in and connect to my screen session, right? Unfortunately, whatever causes my SSH session to drop also seems to kill my screen session, as there are none to be found. I cannot see anything useful in the logs for why the sessions got killed, but even after I lose the session, I can connect tot he webGUI, though it is still on 3.5.0.1 and if I click on the "Reports" link, it says the Reports module is not installed. I tried connecting to the console of the Engine (did I mention it is a self-hosted engine?), but the VNC connection cannot seem to connect, so I can't even run it from the console (even though the 'engine-setup' process shuts down the engine services, at least running it from the console should allow it to finish since it won't kill an SSH session) Any ideas on either what could be going on here and/or how to successfully run 'engine-setup'? Thanks! :-) -Alan
