[CentOS-virt] CentOS ovirt-3.1 repository

2014-09-01 Thread Hideo Goto
Many thanks for your prompt and accurate info, Karanbir and yet special
thanks to Johnny Hughes. I am going to follow your advice right now.

In fact we have a 3.4 site also and found it incomparably more stable than
ever, and have been discussing migration of  our old sites. But Ovirt is,
as you know, very update-hostile system: We still have another 3.0 site
working.

Thanks again.

Yeah, I can see the usefulness of that -- particularly with me
"upstream" hat on.  It's just a matter of effort and priorities. :-)

And it would be different from Fedora's virt-next, because it would be
focusing on virtualization stuff coming down the pipeline from
individual projects upstream, rather than virtualization stuff likely
to end up in the next CentOS.

This we in our testing repo only, and once oVirt.org started releasing
all updates for CentOS-6, we stopped doing it as it was just duplicate
work and the oVirt.org work was released as stable.

I would recommend that you look here for equivalent versions:

http://resources.ovirt.org/releases/

I am looking, but I don't think we keep our versions.  If you want 3.1
versions, you can get something very similar to what we did here:

http://www.dreyou.org/ovirt/

in the ovirt-engine31 and vdsm31 directories ...

I would highly recommend the newer versions from oVirt.org as they are
now shipping version 3.4 as stable for EL6.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes

Re: [CentOS-virt] Masking CPU flags via libvirt xml not working?

2014-09-01 Thread Sven Kieske
Hi,

I guess this is the wrong approach:

Libvirt does manage cpu type in an xml file,
you would have to alter this xml file:

/usr/share/libvirt/cpu_map.xml

HTH

PS: Maybe add an feature request upstream
to enable this for all libvirt users?

I have seen this request quite some time
on different mailing lists.
