Storage migration: Preallocation forced on destination
by Nicolás 15 Mar '16

15 Mar '16

Hi, We're migrating an existing storage (glusterfs) to a new one (iSCSI). All disks on glusterfs are thin provisioned, but when migrating to iSCSI the following warning is shown: The following disks will become preallocated, and may consume considerably more space on the target: local-disk Why is that? Is there a way to migrate disks so they are thin provisioned on iSCSI as well? Thanks.

Hello, i want to backup a view VMs, delete the old Server, install on same Hardware a new one and restore the VMs. I use oVirt as All-in-One. What is the best Way? Can i simply copy the full snapshot to an external usb-disk, or should i use a external backup domain for that.? And Restore simply copy the snapshot backup to the VM Domain or use the same backup domain to import the VMs? Thx

by Tomas Jelinek 15 Mar '16

15 Mar '16

The moVirt Project is pleased to announce the availability of the moVirt 1.3, an Android client for oVirt. This release is available either on Google Play store or using a direct link [1]. This release supports oVirt 3.4+ and Android 4.1+. This release of moVirt 1.3 includes numerous bug fixes and UX enhancements. The main feature of the release is support for VM snapshots. For more information about moVirt look at project page [2], short video [3] or long video [4] (both slightly older versions so the UX is a much better now). Huge thanks to all who have contributed, either by contributing code or submitting bug reports!

Hosted engine disk migration
by Pat Riehecky 15 Mar '16

15 Mar '16

I'm on oVirt 3.6 I'd like to migrate my hosted engine storage to another location and have a few questions: (a) what is the right syntax for glusterfs in /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf? (I'm currently on nfs3) (b) what is the right syntax for fibre channel? (c) where are instructions for how to migrate the actual disk files? (google was little help) (d) Can the hosted engine use the same (gluster/fibre) volume as my VM Images? (e) I get various "Cannot edit Virtual Machine. This VM is not managed by the engine." in the console for manipulating the HostedEngine. Is that expected?

How to get logged in into restapi in java using session ID

14 Mar '16

Has somebody tried to get API object with the constructor having parameters- URL and restapisession- by using java-sdk ? Here is the following syntax ? Api api =new Api(RestURL,restapisessionID) I have searched a lot but i didn't find anything. Somewhere I read that Ovirt has some issue on keeping restapisession. Is it correct ?
