Hi All, When in the top tab Disks and a disk is selected I can do Add, Remove, Move but Copy is always greyed out, no matter what I try. Doesn't matter if the disk is thin provisioned or not, whether it is attached to a VM or not, whether the VM is running or not. How does one copy a disk? Or when is that button active? Regards, Joop -- irc: jvandewege

[Users] I accidentally the whole database. Or: Can I re-import a running vm into the engine-db?
by Sven Lankes 04 Jun '13

Hi, I have a ovirt "cluster" with one manamgement node and a single virtualization node. After fiddling with the database manually, I had to restore a database backup. The database backup was from a time when the host hat 7 virtual machines - it now has 9. So there are now two machines "missing" from the web-interface. They're still running on the node itself but ovirt-engine keeps logging: [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.VdsUpdateRunTimeInfo] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-8) VDS::UpdateVmRunTimeInfo Error: found VM on a VDS that is not in the database! Is there a way to "re-import" the machine into the database so it can be managed from the web-interface again? -- sven === jabber/xmpp: sven(a)lankes.net

[Users] iSCSI and snapshots
by Juan Pablo Lorier 03 Jun '13

Hi, I'm trying to understand how ovirt manages snapshots to start using them for vm backups. I have my vms to use a iscsi LUN for the system (each has its own) and I have no extra space to create an LVM snapshot in the VM disk. When I hit "create" in the vm snapshot tab, it creates the snapshot and reports ok, but I see no info in the right pannel (disk, ram,etc) and nothing is created in the data storage of the DC, so I don't get where is ovirt storing the snapshot data. Do I have to create an export storage domain?. Regards, Juan Pablo

[Users] Fedora 18 and usb pass-through
by Ryan Wilkinson 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

I've noticed with Fedora 17 that usb devices plugged in after a spice session is initiated automagically pass-through to the virtual desktop without manually selecting them but not so with Fedora 18. They pass through if you manually select them from the drop down bar. Any way to make 18 work like 17??

[Users] oVirt @China

Hi everyone, On our last visit to Shanghai we discovered there's no access to YouTube, so oVirt users and developers in China cannot see the cool video clips we have for oVirt. To resolve that, we were able to open an account in YouKu for oVirt, which will host the relevant video clips. I'm happy to announce oVirt's YouKu page: http://i.youku.com/theovirt Feel free to share with your friends! Here's how you can help: - People who do not see their video clips there can mail me and I'll upload it to YouKu. - For new contents please contact me as well so I'll upload it to YouKu. Special thanks to Jimmy and the Intel team, who helped me with this effort. Looking forward to see more video clips, Doron

Hello, I need a working mozilla-xpi for Ubuntu 12.04 (and soon 12.10). It is strange that an opensource project as ovirt is only working on Fedora. Thanks in advance for any help. Mario

[Users] How to make host ovirt on hetzner server
by Андрей Дядюра 02 Jun '13

This is a multipart message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0056_01CE5F5B.0FA72D00 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="koi8-r" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hello guys About 7 days, I'm trying to make a host on Hetzner server. vdsm installation is successful and the host server is rebooted automaticaly. but then I lose the host, and I can access it either through vKVM or reinstall the system via a control system of hetzner. I have two main questions 1. Should I have second external IP address for the host (to set it in the interface ovirtngnt) 2. Which setting (routed(brouted) or bridged) is correct for the host ovirt configuration in the documentation http://wiki.hetzner.de/index.php/Netzkonfiguration_CentOS/en my basic settings and tests: ifconfig: http://screenshot.su/show.php?img=c87b66737536c8f6cad47e684ce7d7aa.jpg route -n: http://screenshot.su/show.php?img=e0d5d2750b99f670a07b2d82b1295aaf.jpg ping default gateway: http://screenshot.su/show.php?img=ef1b0037179f3d4da6b25bbf16652a10.jpg It seems to me that the problem is related to a MAC address (specific Hetzner) On other servers when I used VMWare server optional external IP is never required. But when I used the ESXi it will not work without additional external IP address with a separate MAC address where you configure the router-vm (about this: http://wiki.hetzner.de/index.php/VMware_ESXi/en ) Thank you for any help.

[Users] engine-iso-uploader error

Hi guys, I'm running the following RPM versions from the dreyou repo and I've recently upgraded my engine to 3.2.1 and when I try uploading I was getting... ERROR: [ERROR]::key_file, cert_file, ca_file must be specified for SSL connection. I googled around and found lots of posts relating to packages needing to be upgraded, so I upgraded the following... --> Running transaction check ---> Package ovirt-engine-cli.noarch 0:3.2.0.10-1.el6 will be updated ---> Package ovirt-engine-cli.noarch 0:3.2.0.12-1.el6 will be an update ---> Package ovirt-engine-sdk.noarch 0:3.2.0.9-1.el6 will be updated ---> Package ovirt-engine-sdk.noarch 0:3.2.0.11-1.el6 will be an update ---> Package ovirt-image-uploader.noarch 0:3.1.0-16.el6 will be updated ---> Package ovirt-image-uploader.noarch 0:3.2.0-1.el6 will be an update ---> Package ovirt-iso-uploader.noarch 0:3.1.0-16.el6 will be updated ---> Package ovirt-iso-uploader.noarch 0:3.2.0-1.el6 will be an update ---> Package ovirt-log-collector.noarch 0:3.1.0-16.el6 will be updated ---> Package ovirt-log-collector.noarch 0:3.2.0-1.el6 will be an update warning: /etc/ovirt-engine/logcollector.conf created as /etc/ovirt-engine/logcollector.conf.rpmnew Updating : ovirt-iso-uploader-3.2.0-1.el6.noarch 5/10 warning: /etc/ovirt-engine/isouploader.conf created as /etc/ovirt-engine/isouploader.conf.rpmnew I backed up and replaced the older conf files with the rpmnew ones (above only) too and restarted ovirt once the updates were done, and instead of the original error, I'm now getting the following error...
