How to set priority for HA VM via Python SDK ?
by TranceWorldLogic . 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

Hi, I want to set priority of Highly Available VM as High via python SDK. I provided information as shown below: vm = self.vms_service.add( vm = types.Vm ( high_availability = types.HighAvailability( enabled = True, priority = 1, ), ), ) As see above priority we have to provide as number but in GUI we can choose drop down menu as ("LOW", "MID" and "HIGH"). I wan to set priority as "HIGH", which integer value I have to set in priority ? I tried with 1 and 3 it shows "LOW" in both cases. Please help me. Thanks, ~Rohit

no vm.conf?
by Michael Kleinpaste 22 Mar '17

22 Mar '17

Hello all, I wanted to adjust the hosted-engine VM to use a little less CPU and memory. However, none of my hosts have the vm.conf file in /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/ as instructions say it should be. Has the process for changing the hosted-engine VM settings been changed with 4.1? -- *Michael Kleinpaste* Senior Systems Administrator SharperLending, LLC. www.SharperLending.com Michael.Kleinpaste(a)SharperLending.com (509) 324-1230 Fax: (509) 324-1234

OSSEC reporting hidden processes
by Charles Kozler 22 Mar '17

22 Mar '17

Hi - I am wondering why OSSEC would be reporting hidden processes on my ovirt nodes? I run OSSEC across the infrastructure and multiple ovirt clusters have assorted nodes that will report a process is running but does not have an entry in /proc and thus "possible rootkit" alert is fired I am well aware that I do not have rootkits on these systems but am wondering what exactly inside ovirt is causing this to trigger? Or any ideas? Below is sample alert. All my google-fu turns up is that a process would have to **try** to hide itself from /proc, so curious what this is inside ovirt. Thanks! ------------- OSSEC HIDS Notification. 2017 Mar 20 11:54:47 Received From: (ovirtnode2.mydomain.com2) any->rootcheck Rule: 510 fired (level 7) -> "Host-based anomaly detection event (rootcheck)." Portion of the log(s): Process '24574' hidden from /proc. Possible kernel level rootkit. --END OF NOTIFICATION ------------

The Hosted Engine Storage Domain doesn't exist. It should be imported into the setup.
by Paolo Margara 22 Mar '17

22 Mar '17

Hi list, I'm working on a system running on oVirt 3.6 and the Engine is reporting the warning "The Hosted Engine Storage Domain doesn't exist. It should be imported into the setup." repeatedly in the Events tab into the Admin Portal. I've read into the list that Hosted Engine Storage Domain should be imported automatically into the setup during the upgrade to 3.6 (original setup was on 3.5), but this not happened while the HostedEngine is correctly visible into the VM tab after the upgrade. The Hosted Engine Storage Domain is on a dedicated gluster volume but considering that, if I remember correctly, oVirt 3.5 at that time did not support gluster as a backend for the HostedEngine at that time I had installed the engine using gluster's NFS server using 'localhost:/hosted-engine' as a mount point. Currently on every nodes I can read into the log of the ovirt-hosted-engine-ha agent the following lines: MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:17,773::hosted_engine::462::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(start_monitoring) Current state EngineUp (score: 3400) MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:17,774::hosted_engine::467::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(start_monitoring) Best remote host virtnode-0-1 (id: 2 , score: 3400) MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:27,956::hosted_engine::613::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(_initialize_vdsm) Initializing VDSM MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:28,055::hosted_engine::658::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(_initialize_storage_images) Connecting the storage MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:28,078::storage_server::218::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.lib.storage_server.StorageServer::(connect_storage_server) Connecting storage server MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:28,278::storage_server::222::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.lib.storage_server.StorageServer::(connect_storage_server) Connecting storage server MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:28,398::storage_server::230::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.lib.storage_server.StorageServer::(connect_storage_server) Refreshing the storage domain MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:28,822::hosted_engine::685::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(_initialize_storage_images) Preparing images MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:28,822::image::126::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.lib.image.Image::(prepare_images) Preparing images MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:29,308::hosted_engine::688::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine::(_initialize_storage_images) Reloading vm.conf from the shared storage domain MainThread::INFO::2017-03-17 14:04:29,309::config::206::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine.config::(refresh_local_conf_file) Trying to get a fresher copy of vm configuration from the OVF_STORE MainThread::WARNING::2017-03-17 14:04:29,567::ovf_store::104::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.lib.ovf.ovf_store.OVFStore::(scan) Unable to find OVF_STORE MainThread::ERROR::2017-03-17 14:04:29,691::config::235::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.agent.hosted_engine.HostedEngine.config::(refresh_local_conf_file) Unable to get vm.conf from O VF_STORE, falling back to initial vm.conf ...and the following lines into the logfile engine.log inside the Hosted Engine: 2017-03-16 07:36:28,087 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.ImportHostedEngineStorageDomainCommand] (org.ovirt.thread.pool-8-thread-38) [236d315c] Lock Acquired to object 'EngineLock:{exclusiveLocks='[]', sharedLocks='null'}' 2017-03-16 07:36:28,115 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.ImportHostedEngineStorageDomainCommand] (org.ovirt.thread.pool-8-thread-38) [236d315c] CanDoAction of action 'ImportHostedEngineStorageDomain' failed for user SYSTEM.
