I'm looking into the best way to shut down our VM environment if a power
outage looks like draining the UPS batteries. Is there API documentation
covering this or does someone know of a article somewhere on the topic?
We're currently running v3.5 engine and v3.4 hypervisors with gluster
v3.4
for your production environment? I
would be looking for !required! features for the environment, and then
which versions are the most mature.

Hi All,
What information is available regarding the compatibility of Ovirt and
Gluster? Is there a combination known to be stable and if so, what are
the relevant versions? I am asking with respect to a production system,
not an experimental lab environment.

Does anyone have any information about what data domain storage
connection is the most popular or most common? e.g. Gluster, iSCSI, NFS,
etc.

Hi All,
Having recently had a need to manually export a VM from our RHEV
environment I searched for a way to identify the VM's disks with the
files on the storage system. The search led me to
http://rhevdup.blogspot.com.au/2013/05/manual-export-of-vm-from-rhev.html but
unfortunately, the
machine immediately.
The only snag I can see is that you can't detach the master storage
domain in Ovirt if any VMs are running. I think you'd have to shut the
VMs down, put the storage domain into maintenance, and then edit it.
Cheers

Connecting to a VM console with Spice via the RHEV/Ovirt admin interface
works just fine. How can I connect to a VM's console using a
free-standing Spice viewer, such as the Chrome Spice Viewer plug-in?
I've so far found no information on this at all.

remember your setting of the advanced mode so once you clicked it
once, the next time it should be in advanced mode. I forget which version this

Given our utter disappointment with Red Hat support (or more

Hi Russ,
Could it be that you're over-thinking this? Why can't Ovirt simply
export VMs to a standard format, preferably of course one already used
elsewhere, such as ovf? That way it's a straight one-to-one.

Hi Gianluca,
When I said the support has not been stellar I may have understated the
problem. The reason I haven't opened a case with Red Hat this time is
simply because *all* my other cases are still unresolved, with all but
the most recent having been open for months. I've had to find my own

Hi All,
I've been googling but haven't found an answer to what I thought would
be a fairly simple question. The systems involved are RHEV but, given
that Red Hat support has been less than stellar and doesn't have a user
discussion list and that RHEV is just Ovirt anyway, I thought I'd ask here.
for every VM to be migrated would result in far more downtime than
we would be able to accommodate.
Incidentally, I know of similar products but did not know about
fsarchiver. I'll check that out, thanks.
