[Users] spice client support for windows
Hi, I was reading on deploying spice on ovirt here - http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Testing/Spice There is specific line there that says - A Linux client machine with spice client and spice xpi installed (packages spice-client and spice-xpi in Fedora/RHEL). It's not possible to connect to a guest from Windows client through Ovirt yet. Is above still valid? Can I use spice client on windows and connect to guest OS on KVM-ovirt?

[Users] New virtual disks will NOT reliably be placed where I specified
I have a new ovirt installation that I am playing with. If it matters, I built it by installing and patching Fedora 16, installing the ovirt-engine RPM and then configuring this same machine as my node, or host, or whatever you call it. I created 3 NFS shares on this machine for the 3 required domains, and then created those domains in the ovirt-engine. I have uploaded a ISO and created a couple of VMs and they work. HOWEVER, when create a virtual disk for my VMs, I specifiy the data domain as its location, and have then found, twice in three tries, that the virtual disk is placed on the export domain. I am quite sure I am specifying my data domain when I create the disk. But then when I click on the VM, and then open the General tab, the Resides on Storage Domain field says export. And when I look at the host, the virtual disk really IS in the export domain: [root@oravm2 exportdomain]# find . -type f | xargs ls -l ... -rw-rw 1 vdsm kvm 10737418240 Mar 1 09:17 ./0efcc135-2a17-4cfd-ba7d-c3735349d455/images/fda97fda-f0ca-4926-9a3e-af836466b5b1/9167e3a9-1e98-4f11-a99c-616adbe52f95 I can't imagine what I might be doing wrong to make this happen.

I guess my real question is if the cli package can replace the engine GUI. This is necessary if I don't want to use the GUI but integrate the engine management functionalities with my own code. I don't know in this case if I should directly use the SDK or script the CLI cmds.

What is the goal behind having this constraint ? It seems useful to have a datacentre w/o having any storage restrictions.. i should be able to add hosts w/o worrying abt the storage types... why is it not so... looking to understand the reason behind this design decision. old design decision. planning to remove it for a future version (not the second one planned for may) 2) If i have a set of host systems all connected to shared FC storage, is there a way for me to configure LUNs exclusively for each host, meaning have ability to control what LUN each hosts sees ? Can this be done using oVirt today ? My understanding is that this cannot be done via ovirt, zoning of LUNs to host has to be done separately and not via ovirt, is that correct ? storage domains share the LUN for multiple VMs. do you want a LUN per VM disk (direct lun)? please explain the use case. 3) If i have to create and run 1000 VMs (say), how can i automate that using ovirt, what is the best way to do that ? as oved stated, sdk/cli/api are best for automation, less all are from same template, where you could use pools. ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

[Users] Windows 7 VM locks when console closes.
I have an issue where I have developers that need their Windows 7 VM to not lock when the spice console is closed. The installation of Windows must have a password, so removing the password isn't an option. I've narrowed it down to the RHEV agent that causes this to occur. When the RHEV agent is disabled, you can close and reopen the console freely and it doesn't lock the Windows 7 VM, however when you re-enable the RHEV agent service it instantly locks Windows and requires you to put the password in. Is there a way to configure the RHEV agent to disable this feature? Jason ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Hi I have been trying for hours to install a vm in Ovirt and having no joy., Spice is not working - I just get a black popup window I am connecting from a Fedora16 desktop - I have spice-XPI installed. can see 'press Shift+f12' to release mouse etc. My setup :- I have a 3 server setup - 1. Ovirt engine (Lan address + external address) - 2. Storage node - NFS server (LAN address and external address) - 3. Ovirt node (from the node .iso) - only LAN address The Engine server is a default FC16 install. the node is from the ovirt node .iso. I don't think its firewall related - I tried disabling firewalls on all servers. Once I try spice the icon is greyed out afterwards. In IRC it was suggested to run Bind from server 1 - I have done that and added DNS entrys in the LAN range for all 3 servers - all 3 servers are using bind from server1 as their only nameserver in resolv.conf I am trying to connect from my Fedora16 Desktop When I try to connect I see in /var/log/messages Mar 1 19:34:43 fedora16 spice: Warning: failed to connect: Connection timed out (110) Any ideas how to investigate this further. I am dying to test out a VM but with no spice I am presently unable to...

Can your client resolve the ovirt node's name? - Original Message - From: Morgan Cox morganco...@gmail.com To: users@ovirt.org Sent: Thursday, March 1, 2012 8:00:02 PM Subject: [Users] Can anyone help? Spice not connecting - I have spice-xpi installed. Hi I have been trying for hours to install a vm in Ovirt and having no joy., Spice is not working - I just get a black popup window I am connecting from a Fedora16 desktop - I have spice-XPI installed. can see 'press Shift+f12' to release mouse etc. My setup :- I have a 3 server setup - 1. Ovirt engine (Lan address + external address) - 2. Storage node - NFS server (LAN address and external address) - 3. Ovirt node (from the node .iso) - only LAN address The Engine server is a default FC16 install. the node is from the ovirt node .iso. I don't think its firewall related - I tried disabling firewalls on all servers. Once I try spice the icon is greyed out afterwards. In IRC it was suggested to run Bind from server 1 - I have done that and added DNS entrys in the LAN range for all 3 servers - all 3 servers are using bind from server1 as their only nameserver in resolv.conf I am trying to connect from my Fedora16 Desktop When I try to connect I see in /var/log/messages Mar 1 19:34:43 fedora16 spice: Warning: failed to connect: Connection timed out (110) Any ideas how to investigate this further. I am dying to test out a VM but with no spice I am presently unable to... Any ideas will be welcomed - i'm 1/2 thinking about re-installing with all external ips (but that will make transfer speeds slower..) ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

It worked fine. I'm afraid it could be the case. There is raid on /boot and / (root) partitions and preupgrade-cli didn't work, so I was forced to go dirty way. Everything seems to be fine besides vdsm though. I'm clueless now. I think I will try to reinstall F15, break raid and then try preupgrade. btw. how about software raid and ovirt ? did anyone submit issues on that ? -- Michal ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

I'm not sure what you mean by more configuration. As I understand after install of vdsm it will be started as a service which apparently is not going well. can you try adding the host via the engine (it will reboot in the last phase...). It's exactly what I did. After vsdm install I went to ovirt-engine page and add host (localhost in this case). In event window i saw that there are components installing and after reboot i can see information as below: This host is in non responding state. Try to Activate it; If the problem persists, switch Host to Maintenance mode and try to reinstall it. Of course Activate solves nothing. how did you add the host (did you use fqdn?) I did this using ip address and I'm sure it's not the issue here - I have done this exactly same on different engine host and it is fine. -- Michal ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
