[CentOS-virt] Virt SIG meeting minutes

2014-11-18 Thread George Dunlap
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA512

Attendees: Lars, Lokesh, George, KB (eventually)

Docker update:
- - Docker 1.3.1 for virt7-testing

Xen update:
 - Xen 4.4.1 in virt6-testing
 - Can't do a release of xen without libvirt because libvirt depends
on a specific version of libxl
 - Plan: update to libvirt-1.2.9 before test then release

Signing
 - C7 we want to use the CBS signing system which isn't up yet
 - All SIGs will just wait to release C7 stuff until then
 - x4c C6 is signed with distro key, so we'll keep having Johnny sign those

Target:
 C6 xen/libvirt beta release in mid-November, release early December
 C7 docker: release when sig ready
 C7 xen: beta maybe mid-December

Mid-December: Dojo schedule
 - Biggest one: US in early Summer
 - 30 Jan before FOSDEM - ~300 people
 - Sponsorship?
 - Talk / workshop / hack session re virt sig

Pre-FOSDEM dojo:
 - kbsingh: It would be good to have virt-sig presence at dojo before FOSDEM
 - gwd: I may not be able to make it; I'll try to find someone to cover me.

gwd OK, well I guess let's get started.  [14:05]
*** agrimm (agrimm@nat/redhat/x-lypwfoeufylzzmdt) has joined channel
#centos-devel
jonludlam gwd, is there an agenda?  [14:06]
gwd The main agenda was updates: update on Xen, on Docker, and on the CBS.
gwd The CBS is the main blocker for a Docker release
gwd And really for me doing anything useful as far as a Xen update as well.
[14:07]
jonludlam I still don't have my cbs account
gwd And quaid had asked about oVirt joining the Virt SIG as well
gwd jonludlam: Right, I didn't realize you'd asked for one.[14:08]
* gwd tries to remember the nick of the guy who was working on that...
gwd Well the Xen status is:
gwd * I've got Xen 4.4.1 built in the CBS (unsigned)
gwd * It's using an updated blktap2.5, but I'm not sure how stable it is
  (needs more testind)  [14:09]
jonludlam (tbh I hadn't been pinging about it as I've had to work on other
things recently...)
gwd * And before we can do a proper release, I'd need to rebuild libvirt
jonludlam gwd, is it using the dkms blktap module?
jzb Evolution: ping
Evolution jzb: pong  [14:10]
gwd I think the kernel probably is, not positive.
jzb Evolution: where can I find minutes from last week's meeting?
jzb Evolution: Atomic SIG meeting, I mean, in case that was vague. :-)
gwd jonludlam: Any reason for asking? :-)
Evolution everything should be at - http://www.centos.org/minutes/  [14:11]
jonludlam gwd, the dkms module is quite old, and I've had issues using it
under ubuntu. The newer kernel module source can't be built out of
tree though
gwd Yes, the whole blktap thing is something which needs to be sorted out.
[14:12]
jonludlam given we're providing a new kernel, it might make sense to have
the in-tree patches in the kernel
jonludlam gwd, totally agree
pasik i think the current linux 3.10 kernel in xen4c6 is based on some
citrix patches
pasik for blktap2.5  [14:13]
gwd That would make sense -- I haven't had time to actually get to look at
  the kernel package and see what's in it.
pasik i remember some discussions/emails with David Vrabel about those
patches
jzb Evolution: found, thx
jonludlam pasik, might be worth refreshing the patches - we've done a lot of
testing on them recently  [14:14]
pasik jonludlam: ok, good to know
pasik jonludlam: can you point to a git tree with the latest patches?
jonludlam pasik, not sure - I'll have a look
pasik jonludlam: thanks!  [14:15]
jonludlam https://github.com/xenserver/linux-3.x.pg/tree/master/master I
believe
*** telex (telet...@freeshell.de) has quit: Remote host closed the connection
[14:17]
gwd pasik: You haven't tested the 4.4.1 patches in virt6-testing, have you?
[14:18]
*** telex (telet...@freeshell.de) has joined channel #centos-devel
kbsingh gwd: here now
kbsingh +1 for prepatching the kernel for needed support, dkms is never
  worked for me in prod  [14:20]
gwd kbsingh: OK -- I've just done a status update for Xen (basically not
  much update since last time, except that I found a pretty nasty bug
  upstream and fixed it)
kbsingh on the CBS update :  [14:21]
pasik gwd: hmm, i *think* i did test the rpms you linked
pasik gwd: but i'm not totally sure. i've been way too busy with other
things
pasik gwd: i'll test again to be sure :)
gwd pasik: Sure. :_)
kbsingh lots of progress,

 Hi folks,

 we (the company i am working for) are running several dozens of
 virtualisation servers using CentOS 6 + Xen4CentOS as the virtualisation
 infrastructure.

 With the latest versions of all packages installed [1], we see failures in
 live-migration of stock-CentOS6 HVM guests, leaving a Domain-unnamed on
 the source host, while the migrated guest runs fine on the target host.

 Domain-0 0  204864 r- 6791.5
 Domain-Unnamed   1  4099 4 --ps-- 94.8

 The failure is not consistently reproducable, some guests (of the same type)
 live-migrate just fine, until eventually some seemingly random guest fails,
 leaving a Domain-unnamed Zombie.

Thanks for this report.

It looks like for some reason xend has asked Xen to shut down the
domain, but Xen is saying, Sorry, can't do that yet.  That's why
restarting xend and removing things from xenstore don't work: xend is
just saying what it sees, and what it sees is a zombie domain that
refuses to die. :-)

Do you have a serial port connected to any of your servers?
* If so, could you:
 - Send the output just after you notice a domain in this state
 - Type Ctrl-A three times on the console to switch to Xen, and then
type 'q'  (And send the resulting output)
* If not, could you:
 - send the output of xl dmesg
 - Run xl debug-keys q and again take the output of xl dmesg?

Can you also do ps ax | grep qemu to check to see if the qemu
instance associated with this domain has actually been destroyed, or
if it's still around?

Also, have you tried running xl destroy on the domain and seeing
what happens?  xl is stateless, so it can often do things along side
of xend.  This is not a good idea in general as they can freqently end
up stepping on each others' toes; but in this case I think it
shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks,

 -George

Hi folks,

Thanks for this report.
Good to know, they are appreciated. I have other issues, which I will be 
reporting soon as well.


It looks like for some reason xend has asked Xen to shut down the
domain, but Xen is saying, Sorry, can't do that yet.  That's why
restarting xend and removing things from xenstore don't work: xend is
just saying what it sees, and what it sees is a zombie domain that
refuses to die. :-)
Right. That's what I figured out as well. Everything in tearing down the 
migrated DomU in source-host context works fine until the actual 
deconstruction takes place - and fails.


Do you have a serial port connected to any of your servers?
* If so, could you:
  - Send the output just after you notice a domain in this state
  - Type Ctrl-A three times on the console to switch to Xen, and then
type 'q'  (And send the resulting output)
I know, you were (rightfully) going to ask for that. However, I have 
seen this problem only in our production environment, were such changes 
are next to impossible, due to policy reasons. I am currently trying to 
get hold of some spare production servers to configure them accordingly 
and re-create the problem. If that is going to happen, I will happily 
provide the dump. However, I cannot guarantee, I will get the required 
ressources anytime soon. May take weeks to actually get spare machines.

* If not, could you:
  - send the output of xl dmesg
  - Run xl debug-keys q and again take the output of xl dmesg?
I actually did that, but the result was not saved. IIRC, you basically 
saw all the bits of the DomU in place in the xenstore-part of the dump.

I will try to catch that dump asap.
The host has already been rebootet, so catching the dump for the 
reported case is not possible anymore.


Can you also do ps ax | grep qemu to check to see if the qemu
instance associated with this domain has actually been destroyed, or
if it's still around?
Yes, the qemu-dm process (btw: called with correct parameters) was 
already gone.


Also, have you tried running xl destroy on the domain and seeing
what happens?  xl is stateless, so it can often do things along side
of xend.  This is not a good idea in general as they can freqently end
up stepping on each others' toes; but in this case I think it
shouldn't be a problem.
Yes, I did, but to no avail. I even shut-down xend for this attempt to 
make sure, I do not trigger any code-paths in xlfriends, that might 
take extra steps for the xend is running case.


Thanks,

  -George
Thanks for your time an consideration. If you happen to have any hints 
on things to try or look after, I'd be a happy consumer ;)

 The failure is not consistently reproducable, some guests (of the same type)
 live-migrate just fine, until eventually some seemingly random guest fails,
 leaving a Domain-unnamed Zombie.

 That Domain-unnamed causes several problems:
 - The memory allocated to Domain-unnamed remains blocked, thus creating a
 veritable 'memory-leak' to the host
 - The DomU causing Domain-unnamed cannot be restarted on the host, as xm
 thinks it's already running

 I have tried various things to get rid of Domain-unnamed, all without
 success
 - multiple xm destroy
 - restart xend
 - delete everything regarding Dommain-unnamed in xenstore with xenstore-rm.
 The removal is successful, but the domain remains. Restarting xend after the
 deletion restores Domain-unnamed in xenstore

 So far, the only way to get rid of Domain-unnamed is a virt-host reboot. As
 these hosts are all quad-socket opteron 6272 machines with 256gig ram
 running dozens of guests, this is highly impractical.

 I have seen this behaviour using xen 4.2.5. The previous 4.2.4 versions did
 not show this problem, however we did not use live-migration extensively
 prior to that. Before switching to Xen4CentOS, we used to build our own Xen
 4.2.2 based on a git repo, published by Karanbir Singh. We had several
 issues with that version, but never observed a Domain-unnamed.

 Any idea how to resolve this issue would be highly appreciated, as working
 live-migration is crucial to us.

[CentOS-es] Monitor distorsionado.

2014-11-18 Thread Mario Mendez Navarro
Estimada lista,
estoy intentando instalar Centos 7 en modo servidor, al inicio de la
instalacion en la parte de idioma, se me distorsiono la pantalla.
El problema es en la instalación misma, paralelamente estoy utilizando el
mismo monitor con otra PC(a traves de un KVM) y el video es normal.

Estos los datos de mi servidor :

   - Habilite la opcion de virtualizacion.
   - Configure el RAID-1 (con 2 discos de 1TB)
   - Modelo : HP Proliant ML-310E Gen 8 V2. (Torre)

Al parecer un problema de incompatibilidad con la tarjeta de video, puede
ser?

Espero sus comentarios,

1. Get list of interfaces that are up:
ip l l

Then load the module:
modprobe forcedeth

Then check interface status again to see which has come up (if any):
ip l l

If no interface has come up, post the error on screen (if any), then 
check the logs to see if any errors are reported and post them back here 
as well.


(not sure if on C7 immediately initiates a DHCP request when the 
interface comes up)


Check if interface has an IP address:
ip a l

If no IP address, then request one via DHCP:
dhclient iface

Browse the net... Done!

If no DHCP server on network, then set one manually as indicated below:
ip a a 1.1.1.1/24

then bring it up:
ip l set iface up

then add a default route:
ip r a 0/0 via gateway IP address

Browse the net... Done!

Subject: [CentOS-announce] ABRT for CentOS Linux is now live
Message-ID: 5469eedc.4050...@centos.org
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8


ABRT is a collection of scripts that makes it easier to report bugs and
crashes in various components of the distribution to a central server.
Metadata from this allows developers and upstream projects to evaluate
their priority chain, and also get crucial information on why their
software might not be performing as expected on CentOS Linux.

This information is sent to the server in a json format text file, the
contents of which will never contain private date. The entire
specification for this report format is available at :
https://github.com/abrt/faf/wiki/uReport and I encourage everyone to
read it once, so as to build confidence in the process.


You can enable ABRT reporting by running:
/usr/sbin/abrt-auto-reporting enabled

this script is provided by the 'abrt' rpm package.


More details on ABRT on CentOS are available on the CentOS wiki at
http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/ABRT ; The entire ABRT
documentation is available online at :
http://abrt.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ - this includes both user and
developer information.

For those looking to get started with hacking on ABRT, start by reading
through the advanced usage examples at :
http://abrt.readthedocs.org/en/latest/examples.html


The reports posted by CentOS machines will currently land at the Fedora
Project hosted retrace server at : https://retrace.fedoraproject.org/


For any problems or issues with the abrt code included in CentOS Linux,
or for any problems associated with abrt user experience on CentOS Linux
: please post reports at http://bugs.centos.org/ by selecting the right
Distribution version and component as 'abrt'.

All other conversations around abrt on CentOS Linux should goto the
CentOS-devel mailing list ( http://lists.centos.org/ ).

We're looking to run freeipa 4.1.1 on CentOS 7.

1. after include:
 * mkosek-freeipa-epel-7.repo
2. Write this:
 * yum install freeipa-server
3. I get this error:
 * Error: Package: pki-base-10.2.0-3.el7.centos.noarch (mkosek-freeipa)
 * Requires: jackson-jaxrs-json-provider

I would appreciate any ideas.

[CentOS] Fwd: Centos and logs

2014-11-18 Thread Alan Holt
Hello,

may be anyone familiar with some tool for viewing logs.
I mean web-interface based, simple solution.

I have developers, and I can't give them access to my Centos servers, but
they want to see logs of Apache. I want to give them address like
172.17.17.21/logs and they will be able to watch logs of Apache in browser.

I was looking a lot for something like this, but didn't find.
Alex.

*UPD: *something very simple like phpMemcachedAdmin or familiar to this
Thank you.

I would consider something like splunk (or more likely one of the
free alternatives) and a setup like:

(users) ---public interface -- [webserver] -private interface --\
-- for logs--[splunk/log collector](developers)

and make sure there are acls/firewall rules in place to just allow
your developers access (http logs may well include some data that
you don't want to get out to the public, like if someone implements a
cgi as a get instead of a post but has sensitive data included)

[CentOS] Centos 7 Nvidia openGL breaks vncserver

2014-11-18 Thread Stan Cruise
Bare metal Centos 6.5, vncserver running, client able to connect with 
perfect resolution. Nvidia GT240, driver 331.49.


Upgrade to Centos 7 with nouveau basic driver, all still works fine. 
Resolution poor on wire connected monitor, but perfect on vnc client 
session (1920x1080).


Upgrade Nvidia driver via elrepo. 340.58; removed nouveau via 'Software' 
manager. Excellent wired monitor resolution.


But  Client vnc connect receives the dreaded 'oh no, something has .'

Backed out Nvidia  340.58, back to nouveau, client vnc works again. Also 
tried 304 driver (only other one in elrepo for el7) - same problem.


Research seems to indicate that openGL does not play well with vnc. I 
cannot see any solutions posted as yet.


So, what are my options?

Maybe change out the video card for AMD? I cannot know if the Catalyst 
driver will work, but there is a much more active and extensive open 
driver community, which could work better than nouveau?


And I noted the Linus 'salute' to Nvidia... Good timing.

Re: [CentOS] Fwd: Centos and logs

2014-11-18 Thread Jeremy Hoel
With splunk you get 500mb/day free.  So you can collect logs with rsyslog,
drop the stuff you don't want to see ever and then forward the rest to
splunk.  This could help save on license issues.

You also have tools like greylog.  It can be fed from logstash also and is
very impressive.  ELK, as Keith mentioned, is awesome.. as is a tool called
ELSA.  Lots of ways to look at logs via the web.  the harder part is
knowing what you are looking for, field extraction and correlation.

Are you maybe trying to run Gnome3 through vnc by any chance? Because
Gnome3 requires 3D acceleration, and I'm not sure that nvidia driver
would simulate 3D stuff in software (nouveau should fall back to mesa
in case hardware acceleration fails --- typical of a vnc session).

So my suggestion is to try KDE or XFCE or LXDE or Mate or... any other
DE which doesn't require 3D features to work. Such DE should work
through vnc using nvidia driver no problem --- the only exception is
Gnome3.
 
 Backed out Nvidia  340.58, back to nouveau, client vnc works again.
 Also tried 304 driver (only other one in elrepo for el7) - same
 problem.

You don't want to guess which driver you need. Use the nvidia-detect
utility from elrepo, it will tell you which driver to install.
 
 Research seems to indicate that openGL does not play well with vnc. I 
 cannot see any solutions posted as yet.
 
 So, what are my options?

My choice would be to try a less demanding DE first.
 
 Maybe change out the video card for AMD? I cannot know if the
 Catalyst driver will work, but there is a much more active and
 extensive open driver community, which could work better than nouveau?

Catalyst driver has always been a pure gamble for me (i.e. worked 50%
of time, supported 50% of video cards, and could be installed on 50%
distributions... or so...). The open-source radeon driver is much better
supported.

That said, the radeon community is not any more active or more extensive
than the nouveau community. It's just that AMD has released the specs
for their cards, so they have a much easier job of maintaining the
radeon driver than the nouveau community (which basically needs to RE
everything from scratch).
 
HTH, :-)

You could use NFS, exportfs the apache log directory to 127.0.0.1 only,
make a directory somewhere accessible to the developers outside the root of the 
server
and mount the apache log directory to that dir READONLY.

Alternatively you can change the log directory location in http.conf to
somewhere the developers can access it but outside the root of the server. 
Since apache AND the developers must be able to access it this should be no 
problem.

 1. Get list of interfaces that are up:

@Anthony,
Thanks for sharing your examples.
I've gotten spoiled by using the ip addr show shortcut of ip a s.  So
much so that I try to do ip l s for ip link show, which doesn't work.
Given the error message: Not enough information: dev argument is
required. I figure ip tools thinks I'm attempting to set something on the
interface.  Anyhow, your ip l l shortcut appears (see my manpage comment
below) to evaluate to ip link list, which is awesome!  Shortcuts for the
win.

On a CentOS 6.6 system per the ip manpage, it seems that list is
undocumented for link and addr.

(Certainly correct me if I'm wrong ... I did find a TLDP page with an
example of ip link list, so it's known by some.)

Thanks Mike.

I use Ubuntu on the laptop and in the manpage for the ip command it has 
the following:


COMMAND
   ...*As a rule, it is possible to add,**
**   delete and **show (or list )**objects, but some objects do not 
allow all**

**   of these operations or have some additional commands.* ...

Seems to be vaguely documented - I can see how *(or list )* part can be 
misleading as you might think they are just saying that show 
_will_list_  and not necessary that *list* can be substituted for *show* 
- it's all in the wording!


Oddly, the man page for ip (iproute-2.6.18-13.el5) on CentOS 5 is way 
more comprehensive (it has way more examples on where list can be used) 
than that on Ubuntu 14.04.1 with iproute-3.12.0-2! But then, Ubuntu has 
a man page for each ip object:


$ man ip-tab
ip-address  ip-monitor  ip-ntable   ip-tunnel
ip-addrlabelip-mroute   ip-routeip-xfrm
ip-l2tp ip-neighbourip-rule
ip-link ip-netconf  ip-tcp_metrics

Subject: [CentOS-announce] ABRT for CentOS Linux is now live
Message-ID: 5469eedc.4050...@centos.org
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8


ABRT is a collection of scripts that makes it easier to report bugs and
crashes in various components of the distribution to a central server.
Metadata from this allows developers and upstream projects to evaluate
their priority chain, and also get crucial information on why their
software might not be performing as expected on CentOS Linux.

This information is sent to the server in a json format text file, the
contents of which will never contain private date. The entire
specification for this report format is available at :
https://github.com/abrt/faf/wiki/uReport and I encourage everyone to
read it once, so as to build confidence in the process.


You can enable ABRT reporting by running:
/usr/sbin/abrt-auto-reporting enabled

this script is provided by the 'abrt' rpm package.


More details on ABRT on CentOS are available on the CentOS wiki at
http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/ABRT ; The entire ABRT
documentation is available online at :
http://abrt.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ - this includes both user and
developer information.

For those looking to get started with hacking on ABRT, start by reading
through the advanced usage examples at :
http://abrt.readthedocs.org/en/latest/examples.html


The reports posted by CentOS machines will currently land at the Fedora
Project hosted retrace server at : https://retrace.fedoraproject.org/


For any problems or issues with the abrt code included in CentOS Linux,
or for any problems associated with abrt user experience on CentOS Linux
: please post reports at http://bugs.centos.org/ by selecting the right
Distribution version and component as 'abrt'.

All other conversations around abrt on CentOS Linux should goto the
CentOS-devel mailing list ( http://lists.centos.org/ ).

Thanks KB and anyone else involved.  I was one of the ones that first 
complained asking Why are you even distributing this tool that will only 
send reports to RH, but RH rejects them.

You want the nofail option.

Didn't the nofail option disappear from Centos 7?

Hello everyone.
Is there possibility to install CenOS7 on LVM over software RAID?
I wasn't able to do it...

That would be news to me, and it would be a serious loss of
functionality if it did.

[CentOS] Centos 7 Nvidia openGL breaks vncserver

2014-11-18 Thread Stan Cruise

On 18/11/14 5:42 MT, Stan Cruise wrote:

Well I found the Nvidia 331.89 dvr and kmod on the elrepo site; installed OK.
Reboot, works fine on wired monitor. Still same problem on vnc client.

Another post on this forum suggested to try the Nvidia driver download directly 
from Nvidia. Better still, I actually had the original
NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-331.49.run file which worked on Centos 6.5. I did a manual 
install (run level 3 etc). It installed fine.
Same problem though.

So, at this point it seems associated with the new C7.

Either we can hope for a fix in C7, or I will have to try a non-Nvidia card.

Some Background:
I learned how to get tigervnc-server working on C7 thru
many failed attempts on VMs. I found if I did the following steps exactly, it 
works. There may
be some variability in the sequence that works but I did not try all 
permutations.
But, if I don't do this list exactly, then I would also get the 'oh no ... 
error at the client.
All this to note that getting this to work on C7 with systemd/systemctl is 
quite sensitive.

Steps:
Create new VM on hyper-v or kvm (both work fine)
Fresh 'DVD' install of C7 1406: both iso file and straight DVD install tried on 
different VMs.
Update software via Software app
Install tigervnc-server
copy usr/lib/systemd/system/vncserver@:.service to 
usr/lib/systemd/system/vncserver@:x.service; modified @:x file with
user info
systemctl enable vncserver@:x.service
verify that the vncserver@:x.service symlink is in 
/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/
systemctl start vncserver@:x.service

Then go to client and start up vnc .

If it's of any help to you I have just restored the last 331.xx series
driver (331.89) to the elrepo repository. It's currently syncing and
should show up on the mirrors shortly. At least now you should be able
to make a like for like driver comparison with your el6 install.

[CentOS] Centos 7 Nvidia openGL breaks vncserver

Thanks Marco.

Gnome3 it is. I naively figured that this was the 'default' but alas it 
is a selection which I did make.


I had seen hints of this in discussions elsewhere and did try KDE, but 
that is tough sledding on C7, and I got impatient. I should have stuck 
it out. (KDE has a bug on vncserver enable and creates the wrong symlink 
in /etc. At least it is different and requires work to get it right).


Mate is my next try.

I did try the nvidia-detect and it did say to use 340.58.

Thanks again for helping me converge. I will be silent for a bit to try 
out different DEs.

Are you maybe trying to run Gnome3 through vnc by any chance? Because
Gnome3 requires 3D acceleration, and I'm not sure that nvidia driver
would simulate 3D stuff in software (nouveau should fall back to mesa
in case hardware acceleration fails --- typical of a vnc session).

So my suggestion is to try KDE or XFCE or LXDE or Mate or... any other
DE which doesn't require 3D features to work. Such DE should work
through vnc using nvidia driver no problem --- the only exception is
Gnome3.

//  Also tried 304 driver (only other one in elrepo for el7) - same

You don't want to guess which driver you need. Use the nvidia-detect
utility from elrepo, it will tell you which driver to install.
 

/  Research seems to indicate that openGL does not play well with vnc. I

My choice would be to try a less demanding DE first.

Catalyst driver has always been a pure gamble for me (i.e. worked 50%
of time, supported 50% of video cards, and could be installed on 50%
distributions... or so...). The open-source radeon driver is much better
supported.

That said, the radeon community is not any more active or more extensive
than the nouveau community. It's just that AMD has released the specs
for their cards, so they have a much easier job of maintaining the
radeon driver than the nouveau community (which basically needs to RE
everything from scratch).
 
HTH, :-)

yes, you can, but it's true that with the massive anaconda/storage
section rewrite, it's not as obvious as it was with anaconda in CentOS 6.
I've no screenshot/howto to show, but do you think that it's something
that's worth blogging about ?

PS : just a quick centos 7 raid 1 google search shows some
screenshots, like in the following article :
