Re: Import VMs into CloudStack

[Andrija Panic]

Hi Mark,

unfortunately that is not possible (not in an official way at least) -
since CloudStack is keeping tons of meta-data (info about VM hardware and
such) in DB.

For simpler VMs, you could *experiment* with deploying brand new VM with
(empty) appropriate disk sizes, shutdown VM, then go and replace QCOW2
files on your NFS storage with original volumes, but again this is all
hacking and is not really guarantied to work - MAC and IP address would
certainly change etc, perhaps underlying hardware for VM and you would need
to play with drivers potentially (for sure if Windows VMs) - not the best
approach - but is possible to work.

Normal way would be to export original ROOT (system/OS, say, /dev/vda)
volume of your VM as qcow2 files to some web server (optionally RAW format,
but that is both inefficient and might have its issues) and then register
it as template inside CloudStack and finally deploy new VM in regular way -
still some play with drivers etc might be needed, possible mount points (if
not used UUID of volume in /etc/fstab), change MAC address of VM (i.e.
delete udev rules for network, reboot VM), etc.
For data volumes (i.e. vdb and onwards) you would just upload qcow2 file as
Volume to CloudStack - and attach it to your VM (this "attach" is "lazy"
attach - meaning when you power on VM very first time (or you hot-plugged
the volume during VM running...) CloudStack will move the qcow2 data file
that you uploaded, from Secondary NFS to Primary Storage - and this move
(qemu-img convert) takes time obviously...so you are not confused why it's
so long for the first time.

Just in case you have some Windows VMs - you would probably need to
initialize HAL again (google this or ping me if needed) - especially if
changing from emulated/IDE stuff to VirtIO (otherwise you will get nice
BSOD as usual with driver issues)

CloudStack is an awesome stuff, just give it a try.

Hope that helps
Andrija

Import VMs into CloudStack

[Werner, Mark]

Hi,

 

I am curious to know if I am doing migrations of workloads into a virtual
infrastructure, in this case KVM, that is managed by CloudStack, and I
perform the migrations directly to the hypervisor('s), is there a way then
to register or import those migrated VM instances into the CloudStack
environment / inventory so that CloudStack is aware of them and can manage
them?

 

Thanks,

[Marco Sinhoreli]

I am available to help since I am in Brazil and I have in local community many 
ACS users that want to talk in CCC. 

Also, Makino and Cristian are involved a long time with CloudStack and they can 
help us to have a great event!

Re: CloudStack Collab in Brazil

Hi Rafael,

I am available to help, count on me!
I have one question. Can anyone (one that is not a PMC/Committer) help to
review presentations?

The divisions for the CFP looks good, adding security aspects as Ricardo
Makino proposed is also interesting.

Regards,
Gabriel.

Re: CloudStack Collab in Brazil

[Ricardo Makino]

Hi Rafael, hope you are fine!

You can count on me to help on the CFP and proposals evaluation.

Additionally, I think it is a good idea to include one more topic in CFP
focusing on security aspects of cloud (infrastructure, integrations, etc).

Best regards,

Re: Resource Allocation Question

[Andrija Panic]

Hi Asai,

you have 3 servers of 8 cores @ 2.4GHz - but your turbo boost frequency is
3.2 GHZ (
https://ark.intel.com/products/83352/Intel-Xeon-Processor-E5-2620-v3-15M-Cache-2-40-GHz-)
and for unknown reason, this Turbo Boost frequency is what ACS sees - but
that only means, say 30% effective over-provisioning of CPU - not issues in
other things at all !

Your total CPU/MHz math looks like this: 3 servers x 8 cores (HT) x 3.2GHZ
= 24 x 3.2GHz = 76.8 GHz - so the math is clear :)

You should be able to use up to  "
cluster.cpu.allocated.capacity.disablethreshold " as percentage of your
total CPU/GHz - which by default (unless I'm wrong) 0.8, meaning 80% of
your total CPU/MHz = 0.8 x 76.8GHz = 61.44 GHz... Whatever is the color on
Dashboard - you should be able to use up to total of 61.44 GHz really -
after that you will receive error about "Insufficient Capacity..."

There is lower threshold used just to notify you
"cluster.cpu.allocated.capacity.notificationthreshold" when you are close
to limit... (you get email only once !)

These 2 thresholds can be set as part of Global Settings (requires MGMT
server restart afterwards) - or you can set it on the Cluster level (no
need for MGMT restart)

You can also set CPU over-provisioning as neeeded, for testing purposes,
say to 3.0 so you ACS will see 300% of your real GHz = 230.4 GHz

Hope that makes sense.

NOTE: one thing that I see perhaps confuses you - in Compute Offerings, you
define number of CPU cores (say, 4 cores), but also a speed of each CPU
core (say, 2.0 GHz), instead of real core frequency = this means your VM
will effectively be allocated 4 cores x 2.0GHz = 8GHz. So this means that
your whole cluster (but also a host which will be chosen eventually) needs
to have at least 8GHz free/available in order to successfully deploy VM.
So forget about real number of cores vs. virtual cores (as part of Compute
Offering) - better observe only GHz (Dashboard does display only GHz not
number of Cores, afaik?)

Cheers
Andrija
