Will Shared storage distributes Compute and Storage Resources?
by Dewey Du 19 Jun '16

19 Jun '16

I use GlusterFS as my Shared storage to hold the Virtual Machines. I confuse what does Host ( oVirt Node) do. Will the VMs use the Compute Resources of Host (oVirt Node), such as CPU, Memory? And GlusterFS servers are used for store the VM images?

It is not visible in the default tree view, but if you go to Home->Inventory->VMs and Templates you can see the folders. The structure looks like: nssesxi-mgmt --> North Sutton Street --> Systems --> vm1 etc Not sure why the cluster name disappears from this view.

best way to migrate VMs from VMware to oVirt
by Cam Mac 18 Jun '16

18 Jun '16

Hi, I haven't had any luck using the oVirt GUI or virt-v2v (see earlier email), and I need to find a way to migrate quite a few Windows hosts (Windows 7, 2012, 2008, 2k3 etc) into my test oVirt cluster as a PoC so I can make a compelling case for getting rid of VMware. Using OVF files looks like a lot more manual work as compared to the GUI or virt-v2v, with their nice conversion features. Any suggestions? Thanks, Cam

Issues importing VMs in oVirt
by Cam Mac 17 Jun '16

17 Jun '16

Hi, I am trying to import and convert some VMWare guests from a VMWare cluster with vCenter version 6, to a KVM (oVirt) host. The KVM node (RHEL 7.2) has virt-v2v 1.28.1, though I've also tried using Fedora 23 which has 1.32.4. The details are: vCenter server: nssesxi-mgmt Datacenter name: North Sutton Street esxi server which runs the VM: nssesxi-mgmt04 folder name: Systems VM name: wvm2 cluster name: nssesxi I tried via the 'Import' option in the oVirt GUI, and put the details above in, and after thinking about it for a while, it returns a 500 internal server error. As I'm authing against AD, I put my username as cam@ARDA. I have attached the log (gzipped). I've also tried via the command line, and the result is much the same. I did post the below to the libvirt-users mailing list but have not had a response, so I thought I'd see if anyone here might know what is going on. Unfortunately, spaces were put in the name of the datacenter, so I escape them with %20 So the final URI is constructed as: vpx://<DOMAIN\user@<vcenter_server>/<folder>/<datacenter_name>/<esxi_server> <vm_name> The error I get is: # virt-v2v -v -x -ic vpx://ARDA%5ccam@nssesxi-mgmt/Systems/North%20Sutton%20Street/nssesxi04-mgmt?no_verify=1 wvm2 virt-v2v: libguestfs 1.28.1 (x86_64) [ 0.0] Opening the source -i libvirt -ic vpx://ARDA%5ccam@nssesxi-mgmt/Systems/North%20Sutton%20Street/nssesxi04-mgmt?no_verify=1 wvm2 input_libvirt_vcenter_https: source: scheme vpx server nssesxi-mgmt Enter ARDA\cam's password for nssesxi-mgmt: libvirt: ESX Driver error : internal error: Could not find compute resource specified in '/Systems/North Sutton Street/nssesxi04-mgmt' virt-v2v: error: internal error: invalid argument: cannot open libvirt connection 'vpx://ARDA%5ccam@nssesxi-mgmt /Systems/North%20Sutton%20Street/nssesxi04-mgmt?no_verify=1' If reporting bugs, run virt-v2v with debugging enabled and include the complete output: virt-v2v -v -x [...] # # virsh -c 'vpx://ARDA%5ccam@nssesxi-mgmt/Systems/North%20Sutton%20Street/nssesxi04-mgmt?no_verify=1' list --all Enter ARDA\cam's password for nssesxi-mgmt: error: failed to connect to the hypervisor error: internal error: Could not find compute resource specified in '/Systems/North Sutton Street/nssesxi04-mgmt' # I can access via http a list of VMs at the following URL: https://nssesxi-mgmt/folder?dcPath=North%2520Sutton%2520Street&dsName=nsses… Below is the URI to the vm itself (once shutdown, it gets the name 'vm2_1'): https://nssesxi-mgmt/folder/wvm2_1?dcPath=North%2520Sutton%2520Street&dsNam… Any ideas? Cheers, -Cam

VM get stuck randomly
by Christophe TREFOIS 16 Jun '16

16 Jun '16

Dear all, I have a problem since couple of weeks, where randomly 1 VM (not always the same) becomes completely unresponsive. We find this out because our Icinga server complains that host is down. Upon inspection, we find we can’t open a console to the VM, nor can we login. In oVirt engine, the VM looks like “up”. The only weird thing is that RAM usage shows 0% and CPU usage shows 100% or 75% depending on number of cores. The only way to recover is to force shutdown the VM via 2-times shutdown from the engine. Could you please help me to start debugging this? I can provide any logs, but I’m not sure which ones, because I couldn’t see anything with ERROR in the vdsm logs on the host. The host is running OS Version: RHEL - 7 - 1.1503.el7.centos.2.8 Kernel Version: 3.10.0 - 229.14.1.el7.x86_64 KVM Version: 2.1.2 - 23.el7_1.8.1 LIBVIRT Version: libvirt-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4 VDSM Version: vdsm-4.16.26-0.el7.centos SPICE Version: 0.12.4 - 9.el7_1.3 GlusterFS Version: glusterfs-3.7.5-1.el7 We use a locally exported gluster as storage domain (eg, storage is on the same machine exposed via gluster). No replica. We run around 50 VMs on that host. Thank you for your help in this, — Christophe
