Hi All, Any idea hot to change password of admin user on oVirt 4.5.2.5 ? Below is not working - [root@ovirt]# ovirt-aaa-jdbc-tool user password-reset admin Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Dcom.redhat.fips=false Password: Reenter password: updating user admin... user updated successfully [root@delhi-test-ovirtm-02 ~]# Above shows successful but password not changed. Thanks

4.4.9 -> 4.4.10 Cannot start or migrate any VM (hotpluggable cpus requested exceeds the maximum cpus supported by KVM)
by Jillian Morgan 11 Apr '23

11 Apr '23

After upgrading the engine from 4.4.9 to 4.4.10, and then upgrading one host, any attempt to migrate a VM to that host or start a VM on that host results in the following error: Number of hotpluggable cpus requested (16) exceeds the maximum cpus supported by KVM (8) While the version of qemu is the same across hosts, ( qemu-kvm-6.0.0-33.el8s.x86_64), I traced the difference to the upgraded kernel on the new host. I have always run elrepo's kernel-ml on these hosts to support bcache which RHEL's kernel doesn't support. The working hosts still run kernel-ml-5.15.12. The upgraded host ran kernel-ml-5.17.0. In case anyone else runs kernel-ml, have you run into this issue? Does anyone know why KVM's KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPUS value is lowered on the new kernel? Does anyone know how to query the KVM capabilities from userspace without writing a program leveraging kvm_ioctl()'s? Related to this, it seems that ovirt and/or libvirtd always runs qmu-kvm with an -smp argument of "maxcpus=16". This causes qemu's built-in check to fail on the new kernel which is supporting max_vpus of 8. Why does ovirt always request maxcpus=16? And yes, before you say it, I know you're going to say that running kernel-ml isn't supported. -- Jillian Morgan (she/her) 🏳️‍⚧️ Systems & Networking Specialist Primordial Software Group & I.T.

oVirt host deploy: disable multipath
by femi adegoke 27 Mar '23

27 Mar '23

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1472356 There are 2 drives in my install that oVirt is claiming as multipath. I have tried blacklisting at /etc/multipath/ but that hasn't worked. Any better solutions? I need these 2 drives to be non-multipathed.

4.5.2 Create Additional Gluster Logical Volumes fails
by simon＠justconnect.ie 21 Mar '23

Hi, In 4.4 adding additional gluster volumes was a simple ansible task (or via cockpit). With 4.5.2 I tried to add new volumes but the logic has changed/broken. Here's the error I am getting: TASK [gluster.infra/roles/backend_setup : Create volume groups] ******************************************************************************************************************************** failed: [bdtovirthcidmz02-strg.mydomain.com] (item={'key': 'gluster_vg_sda', 'value': [{'vgname': 'gluster_vg_sda', 'pvname': '/dev/sda'}]}) => {"ansible_loop_var": "item", "changed": true, "cmd": ["vgcreate", "--dataalignment", "2048K", "-s", "2048K", "gluster_vg_sda", "/dev/sda"], "delta": "0:00:00.010442", "end": "2022-11-10 13:11:16.717772", "item": {"key": "gluster_vg_sda", "value": [{"pvname": "/dev/sda", "vgname": "gluster_vg_sda"}]}, "msg": "non-zero return code", "rc": 3, "start": "2022-11-10 13:11:16.707330", "stderr": " Configuration setting \"filter\" invalid.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards Simon

Re: Self-hosted engine 4.5.0 deployment fails

I would run the deploy again, wait until the engine is up and then from the server you are deploying the engine on # virsh list obtain the virtual machine number from the above command, in the example below we assume the number is 1 # virsh console 1 login as root wait for all packages to finish updating: tail -f /var/log/dnf.rpm.log then: # dnf downgrade postgresql-jdbc once that's done the deployment of the engine should get past the [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.engine_setup : Check if Engine health page is up] step.

oVirt + TrueNAS: Unable to create iSCSI domain - I am missing something obvious
by David Johnson 20 Jan '23

20 Jan '23

Good morning folks, and thank you in advance. I am working on migrating my oVirt backing store from NFS to iSCSI. *oVirt Environment:* oVirt Open Virtualization Manager Software Version:4.4.4.7-1.el8 *TrueNAS environment:* FreeBSD truenas.local 12.2-RELEASE-p11 75566f060d4(HEAD) TRUENAS amd64 The iSCSI share is on a TrueNAS server, exposed to user VDSM and group 36. oVirt sees the targeted share, but is unable to make use of it. The latest issue is "Error while executing action New SAN Storage Domain: Volume Group block size error, please check your Volume Group configuration, Supported block size is 512 bytes." As near as I can tell, oVirt does not support any block size other than 512 bytes, while TrueNAS's smallest OOB block size is 4k. I know that oVirt on TrueNAS is a common configuration, so I expect I am missing something really obvious here, probably a TrueNAS configuration needed to make TrueNAS work with 512 byte blocks. Any advice would be helpful. *David Johnson*

Network Address Change
by Paul.LKW 28 Dec '22

28 Dec '22

Hi All: I just has a case, I need to change the oVirt host and engine IP address due to data center decommission I checked in the hosted-engine host there are some files I could change ; in ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf ca_subject="O=simple.com, CN=1.2.3.4" gateway=1.2.3.254 and of course I need to change the ovirtmgmt interface IP too, I think just change the above line could do the tick, but where could I change the other host IP in the cluster ? I think I have to be lost all the host as once changed the hosted-engine host IP as it is in diff. sub net. Does there any command line tools could do that or someone has such experience could share? Best Regards, Paul.LKW

Forced restart when losing communication with the Storages
by Murilo Morais 13 Dec '22

13 Dec '22

Good morning everyone! Is there a way to disable the forced reboot of the machines? This morning there was an event in our infrastructure where the hosts lost communication with the Storage but this caused all the hosts to restart abruptly. Would this be the correct behavior of oVirt? Is there any way to disable this?
