Rename Virtual Machine
by lavi.buchnik＠exlibrisgroup.com 08 Jun '23

Hi, We have this scenario: - VM running Centos-7 - VM running Oracle-8 Then, we shutdown and delete Centos-7 VM (verified by API and UI) Then, we rename Oracle-8 VM (via API) to have the name of the old Centos-7 VM and then stop/start Oracle-8 VM. Rename is working and VM is coming up (status is "up" from API and also in the UI). The problem is that Oracle-8 VM is not really up. it is hanging. not replying to PING nor to SSH. Seems like the root cause is this: - Oracle-8 VM name is indeed Centos-7 VM. but its FQDN (seen in UI) is still its Original name. - So when getting both Centos-7 VM name and Oracle-8 VM name status, I get an answer (via API) about both of them: Both reply with "up" I'm using a simple API to rename the VM as followed (vm_name is Oracle-8 VM name, and new_name is Centos-7 VM name): vm_id_obj = self.get_vm_id(vm_name) updated_vm = vm_id_obj.update( vm=types.Vm( name=new_name ) ) Thanks, Lavi

VM disks Block device
by hemak88＠gmail.com 08 Jun '23

08 Jun '23

LVM is used underneath the storage domain for disk management in kvm cluster on ovirt. VG which is the storage domain is visbile and active in all hosts in the same datacenter on ovirt. But, LV under this vg (that is the virtual disks of vms) is not active and the corresponding block devices of these LVs is not available on all hosts in cluster. I find only the running VMs LVs are active on the corresponding host. Is this a feature? Is it possible to get a corresponding block device and LV on all hosts in cluster?

Resending with Log: Hosted Engine Deploy Fails at "Waiting for Host to be up"
by Angel, Christopher 07 Jun '23

I've installed 3 Ovirt Nodes and am trying to set up the hosted engine. Every time I run it however, it fails at the 'Waiting for host to be up' stage. I've attached the relevant log. -- Christopher Angel, B.Eng, B.Sc Laboratory Systems Analyst, Computer Science Department University of Saskatchewan Christopher.angel(a)usask.ca<mailto:Christopher.angel@usask.ca> 3069661434

Ovirt Error after creating a VM image
by lavi.buchnik＠exlibrisgroup.com 07 Jun '23

07 Jun '23

Hi, I wrote an automation that provisioning a VM using ovirtsdk4 (we are using Ovirt 4.3). In the last week, we notice that sometimes the VM provisioning is failing with this error: "The response content type 'text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' isn't the expected XML" This error is happening when the automation is creating the VM image and waiting for its status to get change from "image-locked", this to be able to set affinity on it and later to start the new VM. So the error is happening while the image is in "image-locked" state. Can you please let me know why it is happening (note that it is occurring like 1 out of 4 attempts) and how can it get fixed? Thanks, Lavi

oVirt 4.4 - Integrate event notifications with System Center Operations Manager
by angus＠ajct.uk 02 Jun '23

02 Jun '23

Hello I am looking to integrate oVirt 4.4 event notifications with an incident management tool - M$ System Center Operations Manager. I need to give examples to SCOM of what an unhealthy email looks like and what a recover/healthy email looks like for each event I want it to manage. Is there a way of triggering sample notifications (something failed/something recovered) for events or perhaps I can see the email templates used somewhere? (I did try a grep -Hr on the engine VM for "alertMessage" and "resolveMessage" for a VM migration notification but only found an entry in the in the notifier log. Thanks Angus

Regarding oVirt IP Address Change
by Pro Cloudguru 02 Jun '23

02 Jun '23

Hello oVIrt Community, Presently, I've a healthy & running oVirt Hosting that includes single DC, Cluster, SPM & Storage. The LAN IP Address range is 10.151.65.0/24. As we're in the process of migrating office premises, I'm worried about the existing oVirt IP Address Schema as the new range is 10.101.160/0/20. In this scenario, I'd like to know how the migration happens successfully without disturbing the oVirt Hosting & all hosted VMs. Please Guide, *Nishith N. Vyas*

OKD Installer Provisioned Infrastructure in oVirt > 4.3
by Fredrik Arneving 30 May '23

30 May '23

Hi, I've successfully installed OKD <= 4.8 in my ovirt 4.3 self-hosted engine setup. However, I have now found out that the imageio-proxy and/or imageio-deamon has changed it's API calls and ports to make the OKD install fail on self-hosted (all-in-one) setups on ovirt 4.4 and 4.5. Since I've upgraded to version 4.5 I can no longer install OKD with Installer Provisioned Infrastructure. I recently read throough a long thread in bugzilla (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1871348) on how to get image uploads working from the GUI but haven't found any solutions for making the OKD install work. The suggested solution, engine-config -s "EnableImageioProxy=false", didn't solve my problem. Would it be possible to tweak the setup so that the OKD installer can upload it's image through imageio? I don't use the imageio service for anything else since I (almost) only kickstart my new vm's from my foreman servers so if other use cases than the OKD install would fail I can live with that. I take it the problem only appears for a self-hosted setup. If it was possible to migrate the engine to a standalone host (not a powerful compute node but somewhere with 4vCPU and 16 GB RAM) would that make the solution easier? I would lose a lot of my current infrastructure if I had to reinstall but if I can't find a better solution I will have to. Any help would be appreciated.
