Problem deploying ovirt-hosted-engine to iSCSI
by Justin Clacherty 26 Feb '15

26 Feb '15

Hi, I'm back to testing oVirt again but have come across a problem when trying to deploy the ovirt hosted engine with iSCSI. The deploy asks questions about iSCSI, finds the iSCSI target, asks for the iqn, then goes to start the storage server but stops there, hanging forever. In this state I can see that the iSCSI session has logged in and the drive appears in the system (as sdb) but that's it. It appears as though it's getting stuck when it tries to get the list of luns. Has anyone else come across this issue? Any ideas where I can start with troubleshooting? Cheers, Justin.

3.5.1 not detecting Haswell CPU
by Blaster 26 Feb '15

26 Feb '15

I just upgraded from a working 3.5.0 on F20 to 3.5.1. After the upgrade, 3.5.1 started detecting my i7-4790k as a Sandy Bridge, and not the Haswell it properly detected with 3.5.0. I had to force the CPU type to Sandy Bridge in order to bring the node up. vdsClient -s 0 getVdsCaps | grep cpu cpuCores = '4' cpuFlags = 'fpu,vme,de,pse,tsc,msr,pae,mce,cx8,apic,sep,mtrr,pge,mca,cmov,pat,pse36,clflush,dts,acpi,mmx,fxsr,sse,sse2,ss,ht,tm,pbe,syscall,nx,pdpe1gb,rdtscp,lm,constant_tsc,arch_perfmon,pebs,bts,rep_good,nopl,xtopology,nonstop_tsc,aperfmperf,eagerfpu,pni,pclmulqdq,dtes64,monitor,ds_cpl,vmx,est,tm2,ssse3,fma,cx16,xtpr,pdcm,pcid,sse4_1,sse4_2,x2apic,movbe,popcnt,tsc_deadline_timer,aes,xsave,avx,f16c,rdrand,lahf_lm,abm,ida,arat,pln,pts,dtherm,tpr_shadow,vnmi,flexpriority,ept,vpid,fsgsbase,tsc_adjust,bmi1,hle,avx2,smep,bmi2,erms,invpcid,rtm,xsaveopt,model_Nehalem,model_Conroe,model_coreduo,model_core2duo,model_Penryn,model_Westmere,model_n270,model_SandyBridge' cpuModel = 'Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz' cpuSockets = '1' cpuSpeed = '4300.000' cpuThreads = '8' numaNodes = {'0': {'cpus': [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7], 'totalMemory': '32022'}} # cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 60 model name : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz stepping : 3 microcode : 0x1c cpu MHz : 4299.843 cache size : 8192 KB physical id : 0 siblings : 8 core id : 0 cpu cores : 4 apicid : 0 initial apicid : 0 fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 13 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe syscall nx pdpe1gb rdtscp lm constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts rep_good nopl xtopology nonstop_tsc aperfmperf eagerfpu pni pclmulqdq dtes64 monitor ds_cpl vmx est tm2 ssse3 fma cx16 xtpr pdcm pcid sse4_1 sse4_2 x2apic movbe popcnt tsc_deadline_timer aes xsave avx f16c rdrand lahf_lm abm ida arat pln pts dtherm tpr_shadow vnmi flexpriority ept vpid fsgsbase tsc_adjust bmi1 hle avx2 smep bmi2 erms invpcid rtm xsaveopt bugs : bogomips : 7999.90 clflush size : 64 cache_alignment : 64 address sizes : 39 bits physical, 48 bits virtual power management:

Automation and engine-setup
by Trey Dockendorf 26 Feb '15

26 Feb '15

I am attempting to update my Puppet module [1] that manages oVirt and have found my method for executing engine-setup works on a fresh install but fails if run after install, for example to enable reports. Normally I run this: yes 'Yes' | engine-setup --config-append=/var/lib/ovirt-engine/setup/answers/ovirt-engine-setup.conf However if I've already installed ovirt-engine and then install the packages for reports and re-run the above command it gets stuck at this step: [ INFO ] Stage: Setup validation During execution engine service will be stopped (OK, Cancel) [OK]: Since "Yes" is not a valid response my method does not work. Is there a flag I can provide in the answers file that would prevent the above prompt? I am semi familiar with using expect but was hoping to avoid using expect from within a Puppet module. Thanks, - Trey [1]: https://github.com/treydock/puppet-ovirt/tree/1.x

HA of VMs
by Matt Wells 25 Feb '15

25 Feb '15

I've been poking around for a better way to perform HA. With VM's like IPA or even HA web sites behind an HAProxy; how do I ensure that they are never on the same host? I've seen the options for watchdog and I can see where that may help a little, but not without the initial outage to trigger the alert. There are many ways to do this however I see few that scale. I'm sure I'm missing something and I really appreciate any guidance. Thanks all

oVirt Manager problem
by Massimo Mad 24 Feb '15

24 Feb '15

I have a problem on my oVirt manager, the problem is that the directory /var/lib/pgsql/data/base fills. Initially thinking that my file system /var/log 2Gb was too small now have increased to 4Gb and is refilled, i have increased again to 5 Gb and is refilled again. Why ? I have implemented the backup of the manager with the script backup.sh, this could be the cause of the problem ? Sorry in the script backup.sh there is this #!/bin/bash /usr/bin/engine-backup --mode=backup --scope=all --file="/root/ovirt-engine-backups/$(hostname)-backup-$(date +%A).tar.bz2" --log=/var/log/ovirt-engine-backups.log
