ovirt 4.6 compatibility with el8
by Nathanaël Blanchet 01 Apr '23

01 Apr '23

Hello community! I noticed that rhel9 doesn't not support anymore ISP2532-based 8Gb Fibre Channel HBA. Given that all of my ovirt hosts are ISP2532-based, I d'like to know if ovirt 4.6 will be still compatible with el8 or will only support el9. -- Nathanaël Blanchet Administrateur Systèmes et Réseaux Service Informatique et REseau (SIRE) Département des systèmes d'information 227 avenue Professeur-Jean-Louis-Viala 34193 MONTPELLIER CEDEX 5 Tél. 33 (0)4 67 54 84 55 Fax 33 (0)4 67 54 84 14 blanchet(a)abes.fr

oVirt hosted-engine deployment times out while "Wait for the host to be up"
by brwsergmslst＠gmail.com 01 Apr '23

01 Apr '23

Hi all, I am currently trying to deploy the hosted-engine without success. Unfortunately I cannot see what I am missing here. It'd be nice if you could put an eye on it and help me out. Below is an excerpt of the logfile generated. ``` 2023-03-22 20:34:10,417+0100 INFO otopi.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.ansible_utils ansible_utils._process_output:115 TASK

Hello If this is a repeat discussion, I do apologize but I am looking to see if anyone else out there as had or heard of this issue happening? I am attempting to install a KVM hosts with a Self-Hosted-Engine. When it goes to install the OVIRT engine on the VM being created under its temporary IP, I am noticing that the VM will disconnect, and I lose all network connectivity on it. This is in attempt to install OLVM using the self-hosted-engine referencing oracle Doc ID 2933018.1. I have engaged oracle support, but I am just hoping that perhaps someone else has run into this issue and they can offer up avenues of investigation? If his is outside the scope of an oVirt discussion as it is OLVM, then this can be closed out.

Encrypted VNC request using SASL not maintained after VM migration
by Jon Sattelberger 29 Mar '23

29 Mar '23

I recently followed the instructions for enabling VNC encryption for FIPS enabled hosts [1]. The VNC console seem to be fine on the host where the VM is initially started (excluding noVNC in the browser). The qemu-kvm arguments are not maintained properly upon VM migration, declaring "password=on" in the -vnc argument. Subsequent VNC console requests will result in an authentication failure. SPICE seems to be fine. All hosts and the engine are FIPS enabled running oVirt-4.5.4-1.el8. Is there a way to maintain the absence of "password=on"after VM migation? Perhaps a hook in the interim. Initial VM start: -object {"qom-type":"tls-creds-x509","id":"vnc-tls-creds0","dir":"/etc/pki/vdsm/libvirt-vnc","endpoint":"server","verify-peer":false} -vnc 192.168.100.67:0,tls-creds=vnc-tls-creds0,sasl=on,audiodev=audio1 -k en-us Debug output from remote-viewer: (remote-viewer:1495470): gtk-vnc-DEBUG: 12:51:55.812: vncconnection.c Possible VeNCrypt sub-auth 263 (remote-viewer:1495470): gtk-vnc-DEBUG: 12:51:55.812: vncconnection.c Emit main context 12 (remote-viewer:1495470): gtk-vnc-DEBUG: 12:51:55.812: vncconnection.c Requested auth subtype 263 (remote-viewer:1495470): gtk-vnc-DEBUG: 12:51:55.813: vncconnection.c Waiting for VeNCrypt auth subtype (remote-viewer:1495470): gtk-vnc-DEBUG: 12:51:55.813: vncconnection.c Choose auth 263 (remote-viewer:1495470): gtk-vnc-DEBUG: 12:51:55.813: vncconnection.c Checking if credentials are needed (remote-viewer:1495470): gtk-vnc-DEBUG: 12:51:55.813: vncconnection.c No credentials required (remote-viewer:1495470): gtk-vnc-DEBUG: 12:51:55.813: vncconnection.c Read error Resource temporarily unavailable (remote-viewer:1495470): gtk-vnc-DEBUG: 12:51:55.841: vncconnection.c Do TLS handshake (remote-viewer:1495470): gtk-vnc-DEBUG: 12:51:55.944: vncconnection.c Checking if credentials are needed (remote-viewer:1495470): gtk-vnc-DEBUG: 12:51:55.944: vncconnection.c Want a TLS clientname ... snip ...

Disable "balancing" and authomatic migration
by Diego Ercolani 28 Mar '23

28 Mar '23

Hello, in my installation I have to use poor storage... the oVirt installation doesn't manage such a case and begin to "balance" and move VMs around... taking too many snapshots stressing a poor performance all the cluster mess up.... Why the vms don't go in "Pause" state but the cluster prefer to migrate things around messing up everything? This is a reference I found and for notice I'm disabling the auto-migration on every VM, hoping this help https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/24KQZFP2PCW462…

clock skew in hosted engine and VMs due to slow IO storage
by Diego Ercolani 28 Mar '23

28 Mar '23

I don't know why (but I suppose is related to storage speed) the virtual machines tend to present a skew in the clock from some days to a century forward (2177) I see in the journal of the engine: Mar 28 13:19:40 ovirt-engine.ovirt NetworkManager[1158]: <info> [1680009580.2045] dhcp4 (eth0): state changed new lease, address=192.168.123.20 Mar 28 13:24:40 ovirt-engine.ovirt NetworkManager[1158]: <info> [1680009880.2042] dhcp4 (eth0): state changed new lease, address=192.168.123.20 Mar 28 13:29:40 ovirt-engine.ovirt NetworkManager[1158]: <info> [1680010180.2039] dhcp4 (eth0): state changed new lease, address=192.168.123.20 Apr 01 08:15:42 ovirt-engine.ovirt chronyd[1072]: Forward time jump detected!

I currently tried to put in engine's crontab every 5 minutes a "hwclock --hctosys" as it seem the hwclock don't skew

Failing vm backup
by Giulio Casella 28 Mar '23

28 Mar '23

Hi, since yesterday backup for one of my VMs is failing. Backup is performed by Storware vprotect, based on CBT strategy. In ovirt events I can see: VDSM host03 command StartNbdServerVDS failed: Bitmap does not exist: "{'reason': 'Bitmap does not exist in /rhev/data-center/mnt/blockSD/459011cf-ebb6-46ff-831d-8ccfafd82c8a/images/a9ec8085-6ac3-4be0-bbd2-7752f7e29368/083f5dc5-9003-4908-96b1-5f750b5a4197', 'bitmap': '1b88a937-0ab8-4f6e-a117-bbd522e21448'}" Transfer was stopped by system. Reason: failed to create a signed image ticket. Backups for other VMs are working correctly. What could it be? Somehow corrupted image? I tried to migrate VM to other hypervisors, with no luck. Didn't tried to move disks (two, one for the OS, one for data) to another data domain, not so fast operation (about 2.8TB). The VM is working correctly, but Murphy's law states this machine is a fileserver with users' data and email :-( Any hint?
