"gluster-ansible-roles is not installed on Host" error on Cockpit
by Hesham Ahmed 26 Nov '20

26 Nov '20

On a new 4.3.1 oVirt Node installation, when trying to deploy HCI (also when trying adding a new gluster volume to existing clusters) using Cockpit, an error is displayed "gluster-ansible-roles is not installed on Host. To continue deployment, please install gluster-ansible-roles on Host and try again". There is no package named gluster-ansible-roles in the repositories: [root@localhost ~]# yum install gluster-ansible-roles Loaded plugins: enabled_repos_upload, fastestmirror, imgbased-persist, package_upload, product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager, vdsmupgrade This system is not registered with an entitlement server. You can use subscription-manager to register. Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * ovirt-4.3-epel: mirror.horizon.vn No package gluster-ansible-roles available. Error: Nothing to do Uploading Enabled Repositories Report Cannot upload enabled repos report, is this client registered? This is due to check introduced here: https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/98023/1/dashboard/src/helpers/AnsibleUtil.js Changing the line from: [ "rpm", "-qa", "gluster-ansible-roles" ], { "superuser":"require" } to [ "rpm", "-qa", "gluster-ansible" ], { "superuser":"require" } resolves the issue. The above code snippet is installed at /usr/share/cockpit/ovirt-dashboard/app.js on oVirt node and can be patched by running "sed -i 's/gluster-ansible-roles/gluster-ansible/g' /usr/share/cockpit/ovirt-dashboard/app.js && systemctl restart cockpit"

ovirt-imageio-proxy not working after updating SSL certificates with a wildcard cert issued by AlphaSSL (intermediate)
by Lynn Dixon 22 Nov '20

22 Nov '20

All, I recently bought a wildcard certificate for my lab domain (shadowman.dev) and I replaced all the certs on my RHV4.3 machine per our documentation. The WebUI presents the certs successfully and without any issues, and everything seemed to be fine, until I tried to upload a disk image (or an ISO) to my storage domain. I get this error in the events tab: https://share.getcloudapp.com/p9uPvegx [image: image.png] I also see that the disk is showing up in my storage domain, but its showing "Paused by System" and I can't do anything with it. I cant even delete it! I have tried following this document to fix the issue, but it didn't work: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/4148361 I am seeing this error pop into my engine.log: https://pastebin.com/kDLSEq1A And I see this error in my image-proxy.log: WARNING 2020-07-24 15:26:34,802 web:137:web:(log_error) ERROR [172.17.0.30] PUT /tickets/ [403] Error verifying signed ticket: Invalid ovirt ticket (data='------my_ticket_data-----', reason=Untrusted certificate) [request=0.002946/1] Now, when I bought my wildcard, I was given a root certificate for the CA, as well as a separate intermediate CA certificate from the provider. Likewise, they gave me a certificate and a private key of course. The root and intermediate CA's certificates have been added to /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/ and I did an update-ca-trust. I also started experiencing issues with the ovpn network provider at the same time I replaced the SSL certs, but I disregarded it at the time, but now I am thinking its related. Any advice on what to look for to fix the ovirt-imageio-proxy?

VM with illegal snapshots
by Giorgio Biacchi 17 Nov '20

17 Nov '20

Hi, due to a bug in our Ovirt integrated backup system now we have some VMs with snapshots in illegal state. It seems that there's an inconsistency between the db and the real status of images on disk. Let me show an example: engine=# select image_guid,parentid,imagestatus,vm_snapshot_id,volume_type,volume_format,active from images where image_group_id='e34f77cb-54d5-40d0-b539-e0a5fd512d2d'; image_guid | parentid | imagestatus | vm_snapshot_id | volume_type | volume_format | active --------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+-------------+--------------------------------------+-------------+---------------+-------- a107b6c4-842e-4b40-9215-c965431a0c0f | 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 | 4 | d19d6ca3-1989-4c67-8ee7-c0c43b3e6d74 | 2 | 4 | f a4c86a68-9123-454c-b417-1b15038a4bf2 | a107b6c4-842e-4b40-9215-c965431a0c0f | 1 | e7a405ee-8fd4-4733-ae9c-5252bf07c9d3 | 2 | 4 | f f6a61f2e-26bd-4b63-97c6-d66913ce48c5 | a4c86a68-9123-454c-b417-1b15038a4bf2 | 1 | 9d0958b9-4995-4e11-a027-a32d4bac52e4 | 2 | 4 | t (3 rows) [root@host02 ~]# lvs -o+lv_tags |grep e34f77cb-54d5-40d0-b539-e0a5fd512d2d a107b6c4-842e-4b40-9215-c965431a0c0f 459011cf-ebb6-46ff-831d-8ccfafd82c8a -wi------- 149.50g IU_e34f77cb-54d5-40d0-b539-e0a5fd512d2d,MD_68,PU_00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 f6a61f2e-26bd-4b63-97c6-d66913ce48c5 459011cf-ebb6-46ff-831d-8ccfafd82c8a -wi------- 10.00g IU_e34f77cb-54d5-40d0-b539-e0a5fd512d2d,MD_348,PU_a107b6c4-842e-4b40-9215-c965431a0c0f so image guid a4c86a68-9123-454c-b417-1b15038a4bf2 is not present on disk, i think that the image was correctly merged but not removed from the database. Any suggestion on how to fix the database to reflect the real situation on disk?? TIA -- gb PGP Key: http://pgp.mit.edu/ Primary key fingerprint: C510 0765 943E EBED A4F2 69D3 16CC DC90 B9CB 0F34

rhv 4.3.11 but not ovirt 4.3.11
by Gianluca Cecchi 12 Nov '20

12 Nov '20

Hello, I see that a 4.3.11 version is available for downstream RHV but not for upstream oVirt. Will it be released for oVirt too? Are there only security fixes inside or also bug fixes (like the few lines one related to export as OVA)? Thanks, Gianluca

Single Node HCI upgrade procedure from CentOS7/oVirt 4.3 to CentOS8/oVirt 4.4?
by thomas＠hoberg.net 11 Nov '20

11 Nov '20

I can hear you saying: "You did understand that single node HCI is just a toy, right?" For me the primary use of a single node HCI is adding some disaster resilience in small server edge type scenarios, where a three node HCI provides the fault tolerance: 3+1 with a bit of distance, warm or even cold stand-by, potentially manual switch and reduced workload in case disaster strikes. Of course, another 3nHCI would be better, but who gets that type of budget, right? What I am trying say: If you want oVirt to gain market share, try to give HCI more love. And while you're at it, try to make expanding from 1nHCI to 3nHCI (and higher counts) a standard operational procedure to allow expanding a disaster stand-by into a production setup, while the original 3nHCI is being rebuilt. For me low-budget HCI is where oVirt has its biggest competitive advantage against vSan and Nutanix, so please don't treat the HCI/gluster variant like an unwanted child any more. In the mean-time OVA imports (from 4.3.10 exports) on my 4.4.2 1nHCI fail again, which I'll report separately.

Problem with Cluster-wise BIOS Settings in oVirt 4.4
by Rodrigo G. López 11 Nov '20

11 Nov '20

Hi all, We are running an oVirt 4.4 Hosted Engine as a VM, and after changing the Cluster's BIOS type from Q35 with Legacy BIOS (the default one after installation) to Preexistent, the VM fails with the following error: XML error: The device at PCI address 0000:00:02.0 cannot be plugged into the PCI controller with index='0'. It requires a controller that accepts a pcie-root-port. We need it so that we can run imported VMs from a previous version of oVirt, namely 4.0. Applying the BIOS settings individually works but as an attempt to generalize the settings we decided to apply it to the full cluster. Tell me if you need more data. Cheers, -rodri
