Importing VMs from CentOS 8 Streams to Oracle 8.9 oVirt (QXL issues)
by Gilboa Davara 16 May '24

16 May '24

Hello all, I'm evaluating switching our existing oVirt clusters to Oracle Linux 8 oVirt 4.5. It seems that Oracle has completely disabled QXL/Spice (leaving only VGA and Cirrus) on their oVirt fork (1). I'm trying to import a VM from an existing oVirt data storage into an Oracle cluster, but I'm getting 'VAR__ACTION__IMPORT,VAR__TYPE__VM,ACTION_TYPE_FAILED_ILLEGAL_VM_DISPLAY_TYPE_IS_NOT_SUPPORTED_BY_OS' error. Comparing the spice-related packages in Oracle and CentOS based oVirt installation, I see no changes. Two questions: 1. Can I somehow enable QXL support in Oracle oVirt? 2. Assuming I can't, can I somehow editing the VM configuration without mounting in a temporary CentOS based cluster, editing the configuration and reimporting it into Oracle? Thanks, Gilboa 1) https://forums.oracle.com/ords/apexds/post/olvm-ol8-spice-support-completel…

Hi Everyone, Initially, In ovirt host machine qemu-kvm is running in 5901,5902,5903,5904,5906 and 5907. But suddenly, It has now running with additional ports 5900 and 5905. Can anyone know why this kind of ports ovirt is newly adding without any actions taking in machines. I Didn't restart any services in host machines.

Ovirt standalone engine ssl cert is about to expire
by Bogdan Dumitrescu 15 May '24

15 May '24

Need some help with the renewal of the ssl certificate (I believe it is a self-signed cert )that is about to expire in a month, this is a standalone ovirt engine running software Version:4.3.4.3-1.el7. The certificate was good for 5 years and it is about to expire. As I understand correctly, this certificate is for the https access for the management page. Can this be done on a running system without affecting any hosts or VMs? Any instructions for the standalone ovirt engine scenario that you guys can share? Thanks a lot, Software Version:4.3.4.3-1.el7

i can't access console with noVNC or VNC client(console.vv)
by z84614242＠163.com 14 May '24

i installed the ovirt 4.5 engine on centos stream 9 and add a ovirt node(ovirt node 4.5 iso) to this engine. i am going to run my vm on this node. i follow the instruction to create the data center, the cluster, the storage domain, upload the image. everything is fine. and after i create a vm with ubuntu image attach, i found that i can't visit the console. when i using the noVNC, it says "Something went wrong, connection is closed", when i visit vnc with virt-viewver, is says "Failed to complete handshake Error in the pull function". i try to change the console type to Bochs one and it appear the same. i change to QXL mode and the vm can't start any more. i check the log, it says "unsupported configuration: domain configuration does not support video model 'qxl'". so now i can't visit my vm by anyway. i deploy the engine follow the official instruction and keep mostly option default but why still have this issue. why the noVNC says "Something went wrong" instead of telling me what is actually wrong

Migrating Engine to a new host
by Fabrice Bacchella 13 May '24

13 May '24

To upgrade both hardware and software for the engine, I will move it to a different physical server, with a different hostname. The HTTP interface to manage it is handled by my own PKI, so I managed it myself and don’t request help from oVirt. But I wonder if there is other trap that I will need to check. Will old hosts accept communication for a new engine once I will have migrated the database ?

stomp timeout in org.ovirt.vdsm.jsonrpc.client.reactors.ReactorClient
by Chris Smith 08 May '24

08 May '24

Hi all, I'm randomly getting this in the engine logs; These times are UTC+1 so are different to the ovirt host logs. 2024-05-06 21:10:47,238+01 ERROR [org.ovirt.vdsm.jsonrpc.client.reactors.ReactorClient] (SSL Stomp Reactor) [] Connection timeout for host '10.10.3.36', last response arrived 1604 ms ago. 2024-05-06 21:10:51,750+01 INFO [org.ovirt.vdsm.jsonrpc.client.reactors.ReactorClient] (SSL Stomp Reactor) [] Connecting to /10.10.3.36 2024-05-06 21:11:18,994+01 ERROR [org.ovirt.vdsm.jsonrpc.client.reactors.ReactorClient] (SSL Stomp Reactor) [] Connection timeout for host '10.10.3.36', last response arrived 1885 ms ago. 2024-05-06 21:11:22,197+01 INFO [org.ovirt.vdsm.jsonrpc.client.reactors.ReactorClient] (SSL Stomp Reactor) [] Connecting to /10.10.3.36 2024-05-06 21:11:27,767+01 ERROR [org.ovirt.vdsm.jsonrpc.client.reactors.ReactorClient] (SSL Stomp Reactor) [] Connection timeout for host '10.10.3.36', last response arrived 1779 ms ago. and I'm trying to debug why it can't connect. The vdsm logs on the ovirt host don't give me many clues about what's happening. I see the stomp requests; These times are UTC; 2024-05-06 20:10:51,807+0000 INFO (Reactor thread) [ProtocolDetector.Detector] Detected protocol stomp from ::ffff: 10.10.3.125:36296 (protocoldetector:125) 2024-05-06 20:10:51,807+0000 INFO (Reactor thread) [Broker.StompAdapter] Processing CONNECT request (stompserver:95) 2024-05-06 20:10:51,808+0000 INFO (JsonRpc (StompReactor)) [Broker.StompAdapter] Subscribe command received (stompserver:124) 2024-05-06 20:10:51,808+0000 INFO (JsonRpc (StompReactor)) [Broker.StompAdapter] Subscribe command received (stompserver:124) 2024-05-06 20:11:23,240+0000 INFO (Reactor thread) [ProtocolDetector.Detector] Detected protocol stomp from ::ffff: 10.10.3.125:36302 (protocoldetector:125) 2024-05-06 20:11:23,416+0000 INFO (JsonRpc (StompReactor)) [Broker.StompAdapter] Processing CONNECT request (stompserver:95) 2024-05-06 20:11:23,505+0000 INFO (JsonRpc (StompReactor)) [Broker.StompAdapter] Subscribe command received (stompserver:124) 2024-05-06 20:11:23,505+0000 INFO (JsonRpc (StompReactor)) [Broker.StompAdapter] Subscribe command received (stompserver:124) but there's nothing around these entries to tell me what's causing the timeout. Is there a script or command I can run to simulate what's happening here to try and figure out what's going on?

oVirt 4.5.6 + Windows 11 + TPM oddness
by Daniel Henninger 07 May '24

07 May '24

Hi folk, I'm running into a very bizarre situation. To start with, I am able to install Windows 11 perfectly fine, with or without Secure Boot enabled, and the TPM appears to function regardless. From the Windows OS itself, I can confirm that Get-TPM, tpm.msc, windows security, etc all show that the TPM looks happy and healthy and well received. However -- the system logs are absolutely flooded with the following error: The initialization of the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) failed. The TPM may be in failure mode. To allow diagnosis, contact the TPM manufacturer with the attached information. And this appears to correlate with SCCM being unable to properly set up a client certificate and register. But I am not exagerating when I say it's flooding the logs -- I am currently staring at a system log with 668 log entries, 97% of which are the same TPM error repeated. Does anyone have any ideas what might be going on or have seen this before? I'm running out of ideas. =/ Thanks!

equivalent to VMrare RDM
by Nathanaël Blanchet 06 May '24

Hello, I'd like to use dell csi driver for dynamic provisionning into vms like described here: https://dell.github.io/csm-docs/docs/deployment/csmoperator/drivers/powerma… Does something equivalent to RDM (Raw Device Mapping) exist with oVirt? https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.storage.do… I'm aware about host devices features, but tht is not relevant in this case.

Cannot create bond
by dcaamano＠apexutilities.ca 06 May '24

06 May '24

Hello, I recently deploy two KVM hosts and one KVM engine. things seem to be working good so far; however, I cannot create bonds in my KVM hosts. I have 4 interfaces, two enabled (cable connected) and two disabled (cable unplugged, not needed at the moment). The ovirmgmt network is running on one of the active interfaces. I have done the following: Create LACP bond with both connected interfaces. Create Load-balancing XOR bond with both connected interfaces. Create LACP bond with both unplugged interfaces. Create Load-balancing XOR bond with both unplugged interfaces. Create LACP bond with one connected and one unplugged interface. Create Load-balancing XOR bond with one connected and one interfaces. Remove server from KVM engine, create bond at the host level using cockpit, try to add the host back into KVM cluster. None of the options i have tried successfully create the bond in the KVM cluster. I will appreciate your assistance in getting this to work. Environment details OS on all servers: Oracle Linux 8.9 with kernel 5.15.0-205.149.5.1.el8uek.x86_64 KVM engine: running on a virtual machine in vCenter KVM hosts: physical servers Software version: 4.5.4-1.0.31.el8 Thank you
