Re: Ceph & KVM clusters on the same servers

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Dear Vladimir,

You have this in documentation: "Warning. It is NOT recommended to run 
services on this host not controlled by CloudStack." from here: 
http://cloudstack-installation.readthedocs.org/en/latest/hypervisor/kvm.html
Believe me - this is for reason. It is usually bad idea to mix different 
roles at one host unless you want to have all-in-one development 
environment for some specific goal. Linux is great, but more your put on 
one host more fragile becomes the entire system. You can't change one 
part without breaking the other.

Hello,

Have anyone tried to use the same servers for a KVM virtualization
HA-cluster and a Ceph storage cluster?

So guests' VMs and volumes will be quite available. Of course, there'll
be huge network load, so we'll have to design our network wisely. Maybe
a separate network for the management VLAN and for the
management/monitoring network of Ceph, a separate one for the secondary
storage network, another one - for public & private VLANS of guests 
and,
the last but not least, a network to interact with the Ceph storage 
from

hypervisors. Should be working fine, shouldn't it?

If anyone tried to implement this configuration, would you be so kind 
as

to share any of your conclusions about its performance and reliability?
Thank you very much in advance!

Re: ACS + XenServer + DAS ?

Nux,

It is hard to understand without part number what exactly do you mean? 
DAS at Supermicro is usually referenced as backplane where you plug 
HDD-s in. We have such a server with 24 HDD and HBA adapter behind it. 
But this is just a server with a lot of bays for hard drives.

Hello,

As I've never worked with this kind of stuff before, can anyone clarify

or live migration?
From what I read DAS is considered by XenServer as local storage and 
there's no way around, I'm hoping to be told differently. :)

I think you may find OVS plugin at CS source tree, but whether you want

Re: [DISCUSS] ACS 4.5.3 release

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

 I have 2 issues, both are related to UI.

 1. Network -> VPC -> Configure -> Network tier dashboard item has wrong 
number of "Public LB IP" in use. I have none, but it shows 6 (since 
4.5.1)
 2. Network -> VPC -> Configure -> Router - public gateways page has 
button with "label.add.private.gateway" caption instead of "Add private 
gateway" (since 4.5.2)


 I didn't create issues in JIRA.

 Vadim.

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Dear Remi,

   I had this impression you described indeed. Have been with CS 
project from version 4.0 and updates always being very exiting thing :)
   Your words make me more confident in what you did. The idea to 
stabilize master is great! I am sorry for panic. Please, accept my 
apologize


Regards,

Vadim.

Hi Vadim,

Thanks for your reply. For the 4.6 release we changed the way we work. 
Instead of branching off early and making a release branch stable, we 
decided to stabilise master. We got many complaints that master didn't 
compile at times or functionality wasn't tested before it entered 
master. Making master stable was quite some work, even harder than 
making a release branch stable. I can imagine that process gives you 
the impression of "many problems".


In reality, this should bring more stable releases. 4.7 will be built 
on top of 4.6, so if 4.6 is good, 4.7 will be better (and so on). In 
the past, 4.5 was not built on top of 4.4 (so you saw problems coming 
back and had to wait until a .1 or .2 release, indeed).


4.6.0 was released after just two RC voting rounds, while previous 
releases needed more of them. That says something about the quality 
IMHO.


This is not so related to the question that was asked but I wanted to 
be sure there weren't any "problems" in 4.6 that I didn't know about 
(so they could be addressed). It's perfectly fine not to upgrade yet. 
But please don't give people the impression there are "many problems" 
while you cannot name them.


In the mean while we work on 4.6.1 and 4.7.0 and hopefully some day 
you'll have a smooth upgrade and enjoy the new features.


If you need any help with upgrading, please drop us a line on the dev 
list.

Remi

Re: CS 4.5 + XEN 6.5 using bond and pvlan

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Hello Audrey,

Look at this document: 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/PVLAN+for+isolation+within+a+VLAN
XenServer uses OVS and CS have OVS pluging to work with. OVS plugin 
for cloudstack hasn't been updated for a long time as I know. At my CS 
4.5.2 this plugin is missing, though in older versions of CS it was 
present. I think this functionality does not work for XenServer 6.5. Use 
VLANs - it is more reliable.

Hello everybody!

I installed CS 4.5.2 and I'm using XEN 6.5. There is one NIC dedicated 
for Public traffic, one for MGMT + Secondary Storage, one for Primary 
Storage and a bond configured for the Guest traffic. Zone is installed 
as Advanced without Security Groups.


When I add a Guest Network with PVLAN, the network is created, but when 
I try to create a new instance it does not start. I realized that the 
virtual router also does not start. Adding a Guest Network without 
PVLAN works as expected.


Does anyone have an idea about it?

Re: how to deploy VM on to dedicated cluster ?

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Hello Yiping,

   There is also such functionality as "affinity groups". You may 
define group and all VMs from that group will be deployed "close to each 
other".  I don't know whether group could be hard-bounded to specific 
cluster. Probably not, because all hard-links are considered to be bad. 
Try to imagine -- what happens, if you have entire c1 down, but all 
other clusters are up ? Should client get deny of service just because 
it belongs to wrong domain? Think about your requirements. Why do you 
need such complicated rules?

Hi, all:

I am trying to work out the best way of deploying VM's onto a

Domains: d1, d2, d3, d4
Clusters: c1 (dedicated to d1), c2 (not dedicated)
Currently, I am not using tags for hosts, storages, service offerings 
at all.


When I login to domains d2/d3/d4, and create new VM's, they will go to 
cluster c2. That's great as it is the intended results.
However, when I login to domain d1 and create new VM's, they can go to 
either cluster c1 or c2, but I would like VM's only go to c1.


Is using host/storage tags and matching tags in service offering the 
only way to achieve this goal ?


The reason I am reluctant to use tags is that leads to proliferation 
of service offerings, as the resulting number of SO could grow 
exponentially with the number of host/storage tags introduced.

I also have several volumes with a weekly recurring snapshot and the

Any idea how to fix this? I am running ACS 4.5.1 with KVM hosts and rbd

Re: blacklist IP addresses?

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Stephan,

   If you don't want some address to be provided by VR - can't you 
exclude this from network range? At least cloudstack offers for IPv6 
start IP, end IP and CIDR specification. You may specify longer CIDR and 
start-end IP with smaller range. Thus some of the addresses will never 
be issued. Is this what are you looking for? I haven't tried this 
practically, so don't be rude if this does not work :)

Re: How to configure cloudstack for public use

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Luis,

 Cloudstack is already meant to be public cloud provider software. 
There is no specific configuration for that. It has its own limitations, 
but majority of the tasks can be accomplished out of the box (I mean 
NAT, SNAT, IP allocation, firewall, user management, VM management, 
etc.).


 Basic zone provides simple network architecture for the clients 
while advance zone has VPC option to offer. If you are going to offer 
IAAS -- you should implement advanced zone. Advance zone is more 
complicated.


 External hardware devices may improve your set-up or performance, 
but for PfSence there is no plug-in for cloudstack available so you 
can't manage it from CS. I can't say if it is worth to use it at your 
future set-up. Cloudstack manages public IPs and does NAT, so you hardly 
need anything else to do it. For VPC you need external switch that 
manages VLANS. May be you can use pfSence for that.

Re: HA problem

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Luis,

Do you have any VM-s running on the host that are not managed by 
cloudstack? Like you put something manually? I know there is a capacity 
limit for every host (like 85%). Above that CS will not allow VM to 
start. That guarantees you host will not be overloaded. I don't know 
what happens when VM is marked as "HA", but it shouldn't run also if 
limit is over.

Hello Luis,

If I remember correctly - you don't get it freed immediately.
There is some background process that cleans up. You can probably get
better response if write down what version of CS, hypervisor and 
storage

type are you using.

Re: expand root disk type volume

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Sonali,

   AFAIK this is possible only for KVM hypervisor, not any other.

Hi There,

I'm not sure if this is currently possible for existing root disks. 
Perhaps

someone else can advise if it is?

I believe there has been some recent work to allow the size of the root
volume to be increased when an instance is deployed however.

Take a look at:

http://cloudstack.apache.org/api/apidocs-4.5/user/deployVirtualMachine.html 
[1]


And the rootdisksize parameter.

I think this is only available through the api (and hence via 
cloudmonkey)

at the moment.

Cheers!

Hi,

Why it's not possible to expand root disk type ? I am using ACS 4.5.1

I have one windows vm, It has only one disk and I need to expand same.

Re: CS 4.5.2: all hosts reboot after 3 days at production

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Dear Remi,

 I had time to investigate HA and reboot issues with XenServer 6.5 
SP1 and here are some interesting points:


1. Enabling HA storage using ShapeBlue guide 
(http://www.shapeblue.com/xenserver-native-ha-with-cloudstack/) makes 
Cloudstack to recover from host failure properly. The only tough case is 
when both cluster nodes goes to reboot simultaneously. Then hosts stuck 
in creating the pool until manual fix. This is also described at 
ShapeBlue guide. Temporary disabling/enabling HA did the trick.


2. At my XenServer xenheartbeat.sh script didn't play any role. I have 
disabled reboot there, but hosts have detected storage failure by 
themselves and did reboot. I think this functionality has already 
implemented by hypervisor development team, but don't know exactly which 
daemon did this. Probably Citrix knows exactly and someone may share 
this information. Anyway - for XenServer 6.5 cloudstack heartbeat seems 
to be unnecessary module. Hypervisor itself detects storage problems 
earlier than heartbeat script did. That is why my log was empty.


Regards,

Vadim.

Hi,

You cannot sync because that will also try to write to remote disks and 
that doesn't work. Or else you wouldn't be in trouble anyway. Before, 
we have seen situations where the box was supposed to be rebooted, but 
that took a long time due to the sync. Instead, you wait a little bit 
and then fence it. Otherwise your ring buffers will become full and 
disks will get corruption.


There are global settings to tweak the parameters, if I recall 
correctly.


This all gets less relevant due to XenHA. This process is smarter and 
also fences the box, always leaving behind log trails. Running 
XenServer without turning on XenHA is asking for trouble anyway. I 
always put XenHA to 180 seconds.

Subject: Re: CS 4.5.2: all hosts reboot after 3 days at production

Hello Remi,

This issue has nothing to do with CS 4.5.2. We got host reboot after
precisely 1 week with previous version of CS (4.5.1). Previous version
has been working without restart for 106 days before. So it is not a
software issue.

What does really make me unhappy -- accidental host reboot made entire
cluster unusable. Cloudstack management server was up and running,
second cluster node was up and running all the time and VM were
transferred to the second host, but System VMs were not rebooted
properly by CS and half of the network was down. SSVM and CPVM were in
"disconnected" status. Client VMs were up, but couldn't connect to
storage, because VRs were offline. Entire mess.

I have used planned maintenance mode before and cluster worked just
perfect. We didn't have any single second downtime. But with accidental
reboot there is no use of clusterization. :(

XenServer primary and secondary SR mounts

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Hello all,

 I have primary SR mounted at slave server on my XenServer cluster to 
/var/run/sr-mount/UUID. Secondary storage is not mounted anywhere. Is it 
normal? Storage type is NFS, XenServer cluster HA is not enabled yet.

Re: CS 4.5.2: all hosts reboot after 3 days at production

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Hello Remi,

This issue has nothing to do with CS 4.5.2. We got host reboot 
after precisely 1 week with previous version of CS (4.5.1). Previous 
version has been working without restart for 106 days before. So it is 
not a software issue.


What does really make me unhappy -- accidental host reboot made 
entire cluster unusable. Cloudstack management server was up and 
running, second cluster node was up and running all the time and VM were 
transferred to the second host, but System VMs were not rebooted 
properly by CS and half of the network was down. SSVM and CPVM were in 
"disconnected" status. Client VMs were up, but couldn't connect to 
storage, because VRs were offline. Entire mess.


I have used planned maintenance mode before and cluster worked 
just perfect. We didn't have any single second downtime. But with 
accidental reboot there is no use of clusterization. :(

RE: CS 4.5.2: all hosts reboot after 3 days at production

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Remi,

   Thank you for hint. At least one problem is identified:

[root@xcp1 ~]# xe pool-list params=all | grep -E "ha-enabled|ha-config"
ha-enabled ( RO): false
ha-configuration ( RO):

   Where should I look for storage errors? Host? Management server? 
I have checked /var/log/messages and there were only regular messages, 
no "fence" or "reboot" commands.


   I have dedicated NFS server that should be accessible all the 
time (at least NIC interfaces are bonded in master-slave mode). Server 
is used for both primary and secondary storage.


Thanks,

Vadim.

Hi Vadim,

Not sure what the problem is. Although I do know that when shared 
storage is used, both CloudStack and XenServer will fence (reboot) the 
box to prevent corruption in case access to the network or the storage 
is not possible. What storage do you use?


What does this return on a XenServer?:
xe pool-list params=all | grep -E "ha-enabled|ha-config"

HA should be on, or else a hypervisor crash will not recover properly.

If you search the logs for Fence or reboot, does anything come back?

The logs you mention are nothing to worry about.

Can you tell us in some more details what happens and how we can 
reproduce it?

Remi

Re: Unable to add Ceph KVM node in cloudstack

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Andrija,

  Are you talking about CS Management server OS?  I thought it does 
not really matter if it includes libvirt or not. All calls to storage 
should go through hypervisor and any KVM host goes with libvirt. The 
version of libvirt for old OS may not be aligned with latest Ceph 
release that is true. Cloud architect must check compatibility version 
matrix for all products Ceph/KVM/CS anyway.

Pradeep,

I have installed CS 4.2 with Ceph storage successfully around year ago.
There were no problem with configuration except the fact that you can't
configure RBD storage as primary storage during Zone set-up.
It must be NFS.
After Zone is set-up and running you may add another primary storage 
and

there you have list of choices where RBD type is present.
After RBD is added you may assign this as default storage for 
particular

cluster assuming that each cluster has its own primary storage.

PS. I have also used Ceph object gateway to connect secondary storage. 
It

works as expected. It would be nice to know which way are you going to
integrate Ceph into CS?

Andrija,

I don't have such broad experience with different CentOS/RHEL 
versions, but I am a bit surprised that these distributions does not 
have RBD support at all. That means they have to maintain their own 
"restricted" version of these libraries apart from mainstream. Now I am 
even more happy with my Debian/Ubuntu installations :)

Pradeep,

I have installed CS 4.2 with Ceph storage successfully around year ago.
There were no problem with configuration except the fact that you can't
configure RBD storage as primary storage during Zone set-up.
It must be NFS.
After Zone is set-up and running you may add another primary storage 
and

there you have list of choices where RBD type is present.
After RBD is added you may assign this as default storage for 
particular

cluster assuming that each cluster has its own primary storage.

PS. I have also used Ceph object gateway to connect secondary storage. 
It

works as expected. It would be nice to know which way are you going to
integrate Ceph into CS?

I have seeing similar problem with Xen 4.1 (not XenServer). Linux 
guests were able to see (and use) entire host resources on any guest 
VM. That was a bug of configuration. If you think about what could be 
different after CS update - it could be VM registration procedure. 
Still guest VM should not be able to see static max. Your XenCenter 
shows that effective dynamic VM memory size is 8Gb while maximium is 
32Gb. So CS configured VM guest correctly. This is problem of 
hypervisor <-> guest VM communitcation. That is why I asked you to try 
to register VM manually. I believe you will have the same result. Than 
means your server pool of XS62ESP1027 is broken. 3 other pools are not. 
I see no reason to update to 4.5.1, because I think this is not the

Windows guest (if other templates with dynamic offer are good).

You may try to create VM at XenServer without CloudStack just using XE

Re: Implementing IPv6

Alessandro,

   I do understand that guide does not look impressive. But usually 
functionality is a bit ahead of the documentation, so it is worth to 
try. You may set up small test-cloud apart from your installation to see 
how it works. VR-s are based on Debian Linux 7 that should support IPv6 
out of the box. Probably you don't need this "special" system VM that 
was described in document, because 4.5 system VM should already include 
IPv6 options that were under development that time.
   XenServer and storage usually talk over separate VLAN or separate 
physical connection and there should not be a problem to assign any IPv4 
private address space.


   You may write better guide after you try and share it with us ;-)

template, and the memory is still good in XenCenter.
I tested on a Windows VM and it is the same with the new tools, 
however, as this particular tenant bypasses the virtual router, I have 
to reboot twice and reset networking as the new XenTools reset the 
networking stack.

Can you try Linux template with same dynamic scale option on the same 
pool? I wonder if there is a problem with Windows or any guest OS.

Todd,
I have seeing similar problem with Xen 4.1 (not XenServer). Linux 
guests were able to see (and use) entire host resources on any guest 
VM. That was a bug of configuration. If you think about what could be 
different after CS update - it could be VM registration procedure. 
Still guest VM should not be able to see static max. Your XenCenter 
shows that effective dynamic VM memory size is 8Gb while maximium is 
32Gb. So CS configured VM guest correctly. This is problem of 
hypervisor <-> guest VM communitcation. That is why I asked you to try 
to register VM manually. I believe you will have the same result. Than 
means your server pool of XS62ESP1027 is broken. 3 other pools are not. 
I see no reason to update to 4.5.1, because I think this is not the 
problem of CS, but particularly this XenServer pool + this type of 
Windows guest (if other templates with dynamic offer are good).

I have 3 other pools (1 XS6.2sp1 and 2x xs65sp1) I have no issue with 
these.
Based on the Design doc, what i was experiencing is by design. Ok I 
will turn it off.
But now my question is, why on 4.3 I didn't have this issue but after 
installing 4.3.0.2 it changed.
Was 4.3 broken or is 4.3.0.2? Will upgrading to CCP 4.5.1 will be 
better?
If this is truely by design, I will not be able to use dynamic scalable 
for my windows instances

Good practice -- KVM host must be virgin-clean.

Re: Dynamic Scalable Template issue

Todd,

   You may try to create VM at XenServer without CloudStack just 
using XE tool (or XenCenter). If your manually created VM with static 
max <> dynamic max will be OK, then there is a problem with Cloudstack.

My other question is why CCP 4.3 (which is certified for Citrix Ready 
for
IaaS for XD) didn't have this issue until I upgraded to 4.3.0.2 in 
July.

This feature was released in 4.2.

Thanks for all the help.

Just funny that on CCP 4.3 it wasn't an issue and only after upgrading 
to

4.3.0.2 and a host reboot did it change my instances.

This issue is that the instance below is a SQL server. As Windows see
32GB, it shows the used RAM in windows as 31.6GB. The Server only has 
8GB.

That is what really is the issue. Causing slowness for my users.

I have set 'enable.dynamic.scale.vm' to false and restarted
cloudstack-management. I will reboot an instance that is out of prod 
and

let you know the results.

Re: Dynamic Scalable Template issue

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Todd,

I have seeing similar problem with Xen 4.1 (not XenServer). 
Linux guests were able to see (and use) entire host resources on any 
guest VM. That was a bug of configuration. If you think about what could 
be different after CS update - it could be VM registration procedure. 
Still guest VM should not be able to see static max. Your XenCenter 
shows that effective dynamic VM memory size is 8Gb while maximium is 
32Gb. So CS configured VM guest correctly. This is problem of hypervisor 
<-> guest VM communitcation. That is why I asked you to try to register 
VM manually. I believe you will have the same result. Than means your 
server pool of XS62ESP1027 is broken. 3 other pools are not. I see no 
reason to update to 4.5.1, because I think this is not the problem of 
CS, but particularly this XenServer pool + this type of Windows guest 
(if other templates with dynamic offer are good).

But now my question is, why on 4.3 I didn't have this issue but after

Was 4.3 broken or is 4.3.0.2? Will upgrading to CCP 4.5.1 will be

You may try to create VM at XenServer without CloudStack just using XE 
tool (or XenCenter). If your manually created VM with static max <> 
dynamic max will be OK, then there is a problem with Cloudstack.

Hi friends,
I'm having a very strange upgrade issue which I was wondering if anyone 
has

encountered and whether someone can catch what is wrong. Basically I
follow the steps outlined in the docs to the letter. When I restart the 
MS

service it gets stuck at running the DB upgrade scripts. I checked
catalina.out and noticed that the schema-430to440.sql script is trying 
to

create tables that already exist or insert columns that already exit.

I commented out all the lines causing the issue and then restart the MS
service but then I get a new error about the Listener. After Googling 
this
error the only hints I got were about system templates but I made sure 
the

new system template was installed before attempting the upgrade. I've
repeated this no less than five time with the very same results. I'm
miffed.

Below is a snippet of the catalina.out log with the error. Can anyone 
spot

the issue?

To ensure high quality of your service don't use ready-to-use templates.

Hello Cristian,

I have investigated possibility to host CS infrastructure on OVH around
year ago and here are my notices:

* Using vRack is possible with certain product ranges, and Enterprise
line does not have it. You will stick to Infrastructure and Storage
dedicated server lines and thus CPU/RAM resources will be really
limited.
* vRack technology allows to combine servers into one network using
dedicated NIC and OVH management software to assign VLAN numbers to 
your

sub-nets. You have no control over this top-level switch, except
web-interface. More about it here: https://www.ovh.ie/solutions/vrack/

[6 [6]]
* You have no option to separate physically your storage traffic.
1Gbps interface for everything may not be enough.
* You have no backup-up interfaces. If one NIC is down - entire cloud
may be down.
* Since you don't have network switch under your control, you can't
really build advanced cloud network using ACS and OVH vRack. One option
is to use one OVH server in vRack as virtual appliance and put, for
instance, VyOS. But then you need to think about VLANs-inside-VLAN and
everything over single 1Gbps interface. Complicated.
* Since you don't have network switch, you have to route all your
cloud traffic through single server. Our use OVH
https://www.ovh.ie/solutions/ip-load-balancing/ [7] [7 [7]]
* There is also IP switching limitation. You can't really route you
public traffic between public interfaces. OVH does it for you. More

think your problem is here. You may try you use L2TP.

The downside is that the max size of your cloud is equal to your ip

- Advanced is isolated in one way or another, the typical is VLAN but
other
options exist, where tenant networks are behind source nat. This
drastically reduces the necessarity of public ips, but means you have
to
deal with port forwarding and such. If you plan on using VLAN, the

RE: instance password management

Hello Jaso,

If I remember correctly - you can reset password when instance is not 
running. Then you need to switch VM on and during start-up, script will get 
password from VR. You can do this cycle as many times as you want.

works once at deployment. Is that the way it's supposed to work? Should I be 
able to change the password again and again or is this meant just to generate a 
password once?

If I attempt to change the password for an existing instance the 
cloud-set-guest-password script returns with 'VM has already saved a password 
from the password server.' The output returned from the VR is 'saved_password' 
which unfortunately is in line with the script's return.

I'm running 4.3.2 by the way.

Many thanks in advance,

Jason

RE: KVM - convert vmdk to qcow2 - send volume to CS

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Luciano,

I am using XenServer as hypervisor and I have different SSVM, CPVM 
images. From my point of view, outgoing traffic should not be restricted. 
Especially port 80.  Probably you have downloaded some kind of test image. 
What version of CS are you using? Where did you get System VM image? 

Vadim.

Yes, the problem seems to be on SSVM. When I could try with wget , I receive 
connection refused.


I deleted the OUTPUT rule which denies port 80, and now it worked.

Is it correct ? Does the SSVM wouldn´t have access to external HTTP servers?

Thank you!!

Use route -n to see what your default gateway is. If you have wrong GW - you

  This probably won't work if you were using SSVM's root disk as a

  I believe this is internal IP 192.168.76.5, if that's true, 
  have you added this IP to the global config
 secstorage.allowed.internal.sites?
 
  Also, as Prashant and Sam recommended, validate all is fine with

RE: Deleting Compute Offering

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Hello Swen,

If I am not mistaken - you can't delete offering if it is used. You 
will get an error. First -- you must assign new offering and then remove the 
old one

Subject: Deleting Compute Offering

Hi,

I need to delete a Compute Offering because it is using a storage tag of a 
primary storage which we want to get rid of in the future and I do not want 
users to still be able to deploy new VMs on this primary storage. Of course it 
is easy to delete the offering, but what will happen with existing VMs using 
this offering?
Will I be still able to use live migration and start/stop them?
We re using CS 4.3

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / With kind regards,

Hi, Borhan

Is your SSVM up and agent status is connected?  Can you confirm that 
troubleshooting SSVM 
(https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/SSVM,+templates,+Secondary+storage+troubleshooting)
 gives OK status?

SSVM does have small drive, but you should have NFS mount share where you 
download image. See it is mounted.

Something like this:

root@s-1-VM:~# df -h
...
x.x.x.x:/export/secondary1.7T   33G  1.6T   3% 
/mnt/SecStorage/3db9ac57-a67c-3ee7-8124-34e9361a7de8

While I do agree with Ilya regarding support vendor selection, there is

Hello Özhan,

Have you checked JOB table at your database ?  Try to log in into usage

select * from usage_job;

If you don't see anything probably you haven't installed java mysql

RE: Password management on Windows templates

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Rafael,

Windows password manager is far from being perfect.  As I know -- you 
can't select user for password reset in windows and I don't know any other 
program that you can use instead.

For password reset to work on Windows you probably need to reboot VM. 
Try to search cloudstack user mails for subject Cloud Instance Manager only 
sets password after reboot on Windows 2012 R2.

Vadim.

RE: Enabling CloudStack Usage Server Problem

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Özhan,

You have described usage server work and I would say -- this is how it 
should work in fact. Some points may seem strange from user perspective, but if 
you go deeper into its logic, you will see that everything supposed to work 
like that. 
Keep in mind that key point of usage server is scheduler that works 
pretty much the same as UNIX cron.  Database contains record of the next run 
and all previous runs. By default, aggregation range is 14400 minutes or 24 
hours.  This parameter contains CS global variable -- 
usage.stats.job.aggregation.range. If you change the value using CS management 
interface -- it will not affect JOB scheduler immediately, even if you restart 
management server (which is required).  Time interval should be updated after 
recent JOB is executed. 

If I remember correctly, all the date/time values in database are UTC. 
Timezone affects aggregation statistics runner, so if you would like to charge 
client usage billing based on your local time - this is your case. Otherwise -- 
GMT is fine.  

From my point of view -- to run usage stats every 30 min is overkill. 
Will suggest you to use default settings (i.e. once a day) unless you really 
need it. 

Regards,

Vadim.

Hi Vadim;
Usage Statistics Calculation is started today, but what i have noticed is 
somehow when i change any of usage parameters and stop/start the management 
server it effects after some time like one day :))

Yesterday i changed usage.stats.job.exec.time parameter several times to 
manually trigger usage stats calculation daemon but it did not ever start.
Today when i check the logs i noticed that it started working at the mentioned 
time in parameter today :) Now i raised usage.stats.job.aggregation.range 
parameter from 10 to 30 an restarted management server and now i see that it 
continues to collect for 10 minutes of time :)) I do not know when it will 
mention the parameter is changed and change the calculation interval. By the 
way i made the parameter changes with admin user and CS main interface.

I have also another question my timezone is not listed on official 
documentation for valid timezones. I will use Asia/Istanbul for timezone fields 
for usage and we will see how system will respond to it :) I do not expect any 
problems but :)

Thanks for your reply :)

If we cannot select a user, which users is it going to change password for?
I mean, the password program is running as a service when the VM starts, 
therefore, there is no users logged in right?

Re: Cloudstack physical network on xenserver

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Hi,

Cloudstack does the following:

1. When you configure physical networking of you cloud this should match name 
of the physical network name-label on you XenServer host (let me say 
guest-net).  You can check it with xe network-list
2. When you configure guest networks CS asks you for range of VLANs it will 
configure by itself. Let me say you put 500-600
3. When first guest comes, CS registers new VLAN taking ID randomly (upon first 
VM is registered). You can check it by xe vlan-list on your host.  CS 
connects VLAN ID to guest network uuid and physical network uuid. 

To work properly you should configure all guest VLANs on your switch and enable 
VLAN ID transitions from one to another.  For instance if your public VLAN id = 
5 and guest VLAN ID=505 you must change it while routing from one VLAN to 
another.  Of course if you remove client from Cloudstack -- you should see that 
corresponding VLAN is removed from you host automatically

 That depends on your upstream provider. In our case, we get a VLAN from

RE: IP address troubles CS 4.5.1

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Hello Jeremy,

I didn't clearly understand the problem. Did you have public IP range 
x.x.x.x and would like to change it to y.y.y.y?  General rule of thumb -- you 
should register new network and assign new VIF to VM from this new net. Then 
make it default for the VM and then you can remove old interface with old IP 
address.  Upon removal old IP will be released automatically.  Replacing IP 
address range on old infrastructure without re-creating VR-s usually does not 
work or works until the first reboot :).

I am in the process of moving some servers into cloudstack and to get the 
servers connected to each other I build the guest network and it acquired a 
public ip from the pool I have setup.  All is good and well until the day comes 
to where I need to cut the public ip address over to the new server.  I went 
into infrastructure zones networks public and ip ranges.  From there I entered 
all my correct information and added it to the correct account and boom now 
that IP address is assigned to that one account.  Now I went intot he network 
and was able to Acquire New IP and that gave me the correct IP.  So that all 
worked now I want to remove the old IP the first IP it was assigned.  I figured 
I'd click on the IP and a Release IP button would show up and off to the races. 
 Nope.

So my question is since I cannot find an answer for it.  How do I change the 
newly Acquired IP to be the only IP address?

The virtual router has eth3 with the new ip address I could just ifdown eth2 
and change the default route in there but that does not clean it up.

You could have issues with networking, if the VM is unable to reach your VR 
then it won't get the generated password.

Depending on which template you used you should probably see something on the

 Hi Martins,

 Have you unmanaged your xen cluster from cloudstack UI before xen upgrade?
 This is a mandatory step that disconnects all xen servers in the 
 cluster from while upgrade is going on.

 You can go through

 Hello all,

 Yesterday I upgraded one of my CloudStack Cluster's which run on 
 XenServer. As XenServer dokumentation suggest, after applying 
 patches, need to restart a host, and first must be pool master 
 server. I set master server to maintenance mode in CS, when all 
 instances migrated I restarted a host. After some time I start to 
 receive e-mails from CS, that other hosts in cluster are down too, 
 not only a master server. My compute offerings are HA enabled so I 
 receive e-mails with failed restart attempt on HA instances. At 
 least, when master come online CS didn't restart any instances and I get 
 away with just a little scare.

 What is correct way to do upgrade no XenServer hosts in CloudStack 
 environment? Patches, like XS 6.2 SP1  
 http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX139788 require to restart pool 
 master first.

 I use ACS 4.3.2 with XenServer 6.2.

 Best regards,
 Martins

RE: Help in importing VM

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Alessandro,

You got it -- vhd-parent is what I have been thinking of. If you would 
like to know more about snapshots read this: 
http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX122978. There is also explanation of 
Coalescing -- read it.
I personally don't like such a situation where you can't explicitly 
define the file you VM rely on, but this is how XenServer works. Unfortunately. 
 For instance I have 4 VM-s with 4 snapshots (total, not each)  and over 90+ 
files belongs to these VMs, because I did snapshots/deleted snapshots many 
times. They are not coalesced, because all of them are like fast-forward from 
origin, but still each step you do -- generates new VHD.  I believe there is 
some garbage there, but I can't clean it manually.  I do plan to 
export-uninstall-import these VM-s some time and then will see how it helps. As 
I understood only xe vm-uninstall should clean all the depended objects.  

Vadim.

RE: Cloud Instance Manager only sets password after reboot on Windows 2012 R2

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Hello Jeff,

Actually to reset password you need to power-off VM first. Then after 
start-up it picks up new password from VR.  
   If you create VM from password-enabled template then you should 
get it immediately upon VM start-up. 

Whether Windows have to log-in automatically or not -- depends on 
windows OS settings. This issue seems does not belong to Cloudstack or KVM 
hypervisor. Check your template OS.

I don't see any problems related to CS  here.

Hi,

We're building a Windows 2012 template on KVM. It works fine except that it 
only sets the password for the VM after rebooting it once. When the machine 
first starts up, there is garbled output in the Cloud Instance Manager logs. 
For example Added DHCP server: i#x

After rebooting the machine, Cloud Instance Manager works and the password is 
set.

Also on the first boot it is trying to auto-login but failing with the wrong 
password, if that helps.

Any ideas?

RE: Cloud Instance Manager only sets password after reboot on Windows 2012 R2

Jeff,

Try to reset password for existing VM. Will it take 2 reboots?   
There is may be a problem with Cloud Instance Manager. It is quite old 
- as I have checked at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cloudstack/files/Password%20Management%20Scripts/
  it is almost 4 years old.

Hi,

This is specifically for when the VM first starts up. Don't think it is 
specifically a CloudStack problem, it's more of a question about how to 
properly configure the Cloud Instance Manager. Basically when the machine first 
starts up, it tries to auto-login (despite no registry setting for that), but 
fails due to invalid password. The password to log in is the default password 
from when I created the template. Cloud Instance Manager has the garbled output 
I described in the first post. If I reboot the machine, it starts up and Cloud 
Instance Manager works fine, and thus I can log in with the CloudStack-set 
password.

[Solved] Compatibility of CS 4.5.1 with XenServer 6.5 SP1

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

I have to admit that network created from the scratch works as expected. I 
could not reproduce the issue. Some VM-s has to be re-crated from the scratch 
as well to be able to work at VPC correctly. So I have resolved all the issues 
and will blame HA, cause after hosts update no VM-s were restarted. I used 
migration between hosts at runtime so update went without client VM shutdown.

Hi, Alessandro

  I would recommend you to read this article: 
http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX122978 Note parts about VDI remapping.  
I would probably do this way:  remove all snapshots to be able to coalesce 
VDI-s (look for Advanced Coalescing Scenarios chapter). Than CS should see VM 
and their disks with original UUID-s. Then you can create snapshots using CS 
interface.

Subject: A little lesson about Snapshots

...so guys, let me tell you my little adventure with snapshots.
Our environment is ACS 4.4.2 with XS6.2SP1.
Yesterday we done some activities on a customer's server, foolishly we have 
XenCenter interface already opened and we took a couple of snapshot during our 
activities.
At the end, we've to change the service offering of the server, so we opened 
ACS web interface, stopped the instance and change service offering.
When we start again the server the instance would not start... in ACS logs we 
see:

Catch Exception
com.xensource.xenapi.Types$UuidInvalid :VDI getByUuid for uuid:
x failed due to The uuid you supplied was invalid.

After google a little, we understood that we stopped the instance with a couple 
of active snapshots took from XenCenter instead of ACS.
So... maybe, in ACS db there was a wrong uuid of the Root Disk of the 
instance...
In fact, in Volume table of ACS db we see that path record for that 
instance was different from the one we see in xe vdi-list in XenServer.
So, this was our situation in XenServer:

uuid ( RO): 0345bbf9-be9c-45ae-80e7-fa5fff31625b

Now, I need to understand a couple of things...
First of all... how Snapshots works??
Instinctively we change the path record in ACS db with the first one 
(0345bbf9-be9c-45ae-80e7-fa5fff31625b), you can see that snapshot-time is later 
than others.
When instance started we see that was not tha last situation of the 
instance... so we stopped again and changed path record with the 
a0de7625-f98a-4443-a13f-6c9577c2d958.
So far so good, now the instance was in the last situation and all works fine!!
Now... why the last situation was in the ROOT DISK that is has not parent 
snapshot?
I thought that last Snapshot ROOT DISK has the last instance situation...

Second... since now the instance is running fine but nor in ACS, nor in 
XenCenter we can see any Snapshot (that in fact there are two), how can we 
delete those Snapshots??

Thank you!!

VPC: ACL rule removal

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Hello all,

I couldn’t find “delete” ACL rule button or link. I am able to 
create new ACL rules for VPC, but not delete them. Is it supposed to be like 
that?

Regards,

Vadim

[Solved] ACL rule removal

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

I have found that only cloud administrator can delete custom ACL rule. Domain 
admin user can only add.  That is a bit weird.

I guess it wouldn't be a problem, but I'm also interested if someone has
tested and verified this yet.

2015-05-19 14:57 GMT+02:00 Ian Service iserv...@ts2.ca:

 The release notes for CS 4.5.1 don't specifically list XenServer 6.5 SP1
 compatibility, likely because they overlapped in release timelines.  Are
 there any compatibility concerns between the two latest versions of each?

 Thanks,

Re: Incorrect Network setup on agent

[Vadim Kimlaychuk]

Vlad,

  You should provide a little bit more than that.  At least the 
following:
1. Hypervisor type and version. 
2. Network setup (physical and logical). In brief. I guess you use KVM, so do 
you have openvswitch or do you use linux bridge?
3. Cloudstack version and type of zone you are trying to configure (basic, 
advanced) ?
4. Agent conf file would be also great
