Re: Unable to create a network bond in OLVM

Hey, I had the same issue with Oracle Linux Virtualization. There is a known bug which prevents using bonds. If you’re on Oracle Linux, you can use kernel version kernel-uek-0:5.15.0-103.114.4.el8uek, which is known to work. (Anything above that has not worked, below that works fine too). Unfortunately I don’t know anything about other OSes. Best regards, Mark

oVirt Chat
by Jean-Louis Dupond 26 Feb '25

Hi all, As we want to bring some more action in the community and some collaboration, we would like to setup some new place to communicate for oVirt. The current IRC channel is quite dead, and I think IRC is not what we want to use anymore. Therefor the idea was to setup a Matrix Server/Channels or a Mattermost instance. I think both have their advantages and disadvantages, but might be nice to hear some feedback from the community. What would you prefer as a place to communicate with each other? - Matrix channel on matrix.org - Matrix server with multiple channels - Mattermost instance Or perhaps some other idea's? :) Please let me know so this can be setup! Thanks Jean-Louis

Re: oVirt New versioon ? Centos 10?

In case you're wondering how I built it, there's no real magic. I checked out the repository (https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-node-ng-image) on my alma system. It will likely be a similar result on other Linux systems, but I didn't test any other combinations. I use docker-ce on alma9. Note: The underlying system needs to be a working kvm environment as the build script performs qemu based builds. docker run -v /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel:/kernel -v $PWD:/workspace --device=/dev/kvm --device=/dev/kvm/tun --ulimit=nofile=262144:262144 --privileged -it quay.io/ovirt/buildcontainer:almalinux9 /bin/bash cd /workspace ./build.sh The .github/workflows/build.yml looks *mostly* correct, just some tweaks and it should be able to create build isos - assuming the upload actions etc still work. Personally I do my builds via vscode devcontainers, but that's fundamentally the above docker command. I hope this helps.

Powering oVirt Cluster – UPS with LiFePO4 Batteries and Automatic Shutdown
by Andrei Verovski 19 Feb '25

19 Feb '25

Hi, I have published in my blog https://www.vacuum-tube.eu/wp/?p=908 <https://www.vacuum-tube.eu/wp/?p=908> small guide covering 2 topics: 1) Powering oVirt cluster hardware with budget-level UPS with LiFePO4 batteries. Most today’s budget priced UPS with power up to 10kWt still use lead-acid batteries with very low energy capacity per weight ratio and short lifespan. 2) Automatic shutdown script for all VMs and nodes in case of power line failure. It is not dependent of UPS model and its software agent. In fact, it doesn’t require UPS to have any built-in and agent software at all. Feedback welcome. with best regards Andrei Verovski

Shared disks with sgio and RHEL 9 or derivates
by buettner＠decoit.de 19 Feb '25

19 Feb '25

Hello ovirt Community we are running some ovirt clusters in 4.5.x each with FC backend. Since switching from CentOS 8 to Rockly Linux 9 as ovirt-host, the VMs with a shared LUN and SCSI-PR can no longer be started with the error sgio=unfiltered. This means that the Windows SQL failover clusters, file server failover clusters and so on no longer work. As is known, support for SGIO=filtered has been removed in RHEL 9 and its derivatives. But how can shared discs be passed through to the VMs again so that SCSI-PR works? Is there an alternative? Thanks for your feedback

Networking help needed for a newbee
by mtavasso＠yahoo.co.uk 18 Feb '25

Hi experts, I have successfully set up my KVM and hosted engine on virtmgmt network ( the KVM has the ip address of 172.18.100.15 and the hosted engine 172.18.100.30) , I have been able to import existing VMs (10.1.10.XXX) using virt-v2v successfully and start them, I can even access the imported VMs using the console. However, When I try to ping or ssh these VMs from the KVM (or anywhere else for that matter) I get host unreachable . the interesting thing is I can still access the non-migrated VMs on the same subnet from the KVM! Examp: the non-migrated VM on 10.1.10.191 is reachable , but the migrated VM on OVIRT at 10.1.10.192 is unreachable from the KVM! My guess is I need to tell virtmgmt to allow traffic between different IP ranges but I am not sure how and where! Any pointers or help is much appreciated. Thanks Masi

How to remove HE vm?
by Jiří Sléžka 16 Feb '25

16 Feb '25

Hi, few months ago I migrated our oVirt setup from self hosted engine to standalone. After that I undeploy HE from hosts. All is working fine but * HE vm is still in list of all vms (sure, shutdown) and cannot be removed through UI * also I would like to remove HE domain * when doing engine-setup I have to use workaround as oVirt is not in global maintenance (and don't need to be as it is standalone deployment now) engine-setup --offline --otopi-environment=OVESETUP_CONFIG/continueSetupOnHEVM=bool:True yes, that are just glitches but I would like to clean it up... Thanks for your recommendations Jiri
