Can you explain what you mean by I want to install one windows XP as virtual desktop and then share it with more than one users. This, 1st sounds like it will go against the Windows EULA, and 2nd if you could get multiple concurrent connections, they would all be looking @ the same shared desktop. so they would all share the same Mouse, Keyboard and so on... they would not be able to work independently. For the users to be able to work independently, you would have to use a Widows Server Edition, and enable the 'Windows Terminal Services' Features. - -- Gavin Spurgeon.

Re: [Users] multiple concurrent spice consoles (was Ovirt + Spice + VDI)
Hi Mohsen, multiple sessions to the single VM are not on the roadmap. There is experimental multi-client support but it is to make more users see the same session. And adding to what Gavin has already written: oVirt leverages KSM so that when you have multiple similar VMs on the same host, common parts of their memory will be shared, thus reducing the one-user-per-VM overhead.

Re: [Users] [Spice-devel] multiple concurrent spice consoles (was Ovirt + Spice + VDI)
Thanks. we want to develope spice for multiple concurrent spice console on single OS. for example, we want to use windows XP as single VM for multiple users. we want to develop it as spice feature. is it possible? any help or idea? shall we work on that experimental feature? Great to hear. So the situation is as follows: * there has been extensive refactoring of spice-server to support multiple concurrent connections, or as they are called in the commit messages: multiclients, or multi client, or multiple client support. * It isn't set on by default, you need to enable a special environment variable, it says in the README, I think SPICE_DEBUG_MC_ENABLED=1 (check first in README). * The reason it isn't enabled is that spice will abort if you use two clients which have different network conditions. This is not usable in production. The problem requires me to explain a bit more about how spice is architected, but since you are suggesting you will work on fixing this, I am glad to do so: Some nomenclature: (camel case denotes a struct defined in spice-server) Drawable - spice internal item linking to on device RedDrawable. We limit these to NUM_DRAWABLES to avoid ballooning server memory usage. RedClient - a single client. It can have multiple channels connected. We are only interested in the display channel right now, but the problem is mirrored for the cursor channel, although it is simpler to fix there. RedChannel - a single channel. It can have multiple clients. RedChannelClient - a single instance of a channel for a particular client. Contains the socket to the client for this channel (spice has a separate socket per channel per client). It contains a queue of outgoing messages to the client, messages are dequeued when the socket becomes ready for writing (see red_worker.c poll loop) pipe - the message queue just mentioned is called a pipe, or a message pipe. This is the penultimate cause of the abort mentioned: one of the RCCs (RedChannelClient) socket because blocked for write for a long time. As a result the pipe size increases. Each pipe item references a Drawable. When the pipe size reaches NUM_DRAWABLES we get an abort (this is a bit simplified since not all pipe items have to reference a Drawable). Every rendering operation coming from the guest goes through the following sequence: * read by spice-server from device: QXLInterface::get_command (qemu: hw/qxl.c:interface_get_command) * allocate a drawable. * for each RedChannelClient push to the pipe (creating a PipeItem, taking a reference on the drawable) * try to send data to each RCC socket There are a few things we can do: (a) dynamically increase NUM_DRAWABLES - this goes against the requirement to constrain the amount of memory the server uses (for allowing multiple servers on one vm) * we can make this configurable for a short term solution. * but even with this it is possible that a (b) (this is what I want to do) Replace too long a queue with a single rendered image. This will free all the drawable references, using a single new drawable or possibly another queue (Drawables reference RedDrawables that are the device allocated memory, and this new rendered image will be completely in non guest ram). The building blocks for (b) already exist in the server. See for instance update_area. But I've taken a long time to write this and I need to stop now, so if this sounds like something you want to do then please ask me further questions, I'm also on irc. Alon Thanks.

There was a glitch in the CFP system causing the oVirt Workshop option during CFP submission to disappear. It has been fixed and we're going to extend the submission deadline by one week to accommodate. If you were having trouble submitting a proposal, please try again. Sorry for any inconvenience. The oVirt Project is an open virtualization project for anyone who cares about Linux-based KVM virtualization. Providing a feature-rich server virtualization management system with advanced capabilities for hosts and guests, including high availability, live migration, storage management, system scheduler, and more. By open we mean open source open governance, done right. During this workshop you’ll learn about the technical background and direction of the oVirt project. You’ll meet the developers, and have an opportunity to see and dive into the code right away. The workshop is open to all who want to use, get involved with, or learn about the comprehensive open virtualization management platform, oVirt. The sessions cover the technical projects details, governance, getting involved, usage, and much more. If you have any interest in an Open Virtualization Management platform, this workshop is for you! We are excited to announce that this oVirt Workshop will be held in conjunction with the KVM Forum. http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/kvm-forum/ The KVM Forum and oVirt Workshop are co-located with the Linux Foundation's 2012 LinuxCon Europe in Barcelona, Spain. oVirt Workshop attendees will be able to attend KVM Forum sessions and are eligible to attend LinuxCon Europe for a discounted rate. http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/kvm-forum/register We invite you to lead part of the discussion by submitting a speaking proposal for oVirt Workshop 2012. http://events.linuxfoundation.org/cfp Suggested topics: - community use case/stories - roadmaps - deep dives into features/areas - deep dives into code/debugging/tuning - integration and extensions - components: engine, vdsm, node, sdk/cli, reports, mom, guest agent, etc. - subjects: network, storage, vm life cycle, scheduling sla, gluster, etc. - packaging, installation and distributions - community infrastructure and services SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS Abstracts due: Sep 14th, 2012 Notification: Sep 28th, 2012 Please submit a short abstract (~150 words) describing your presentation proposal. In your submission please note how long your talk will take. Slots vary in length up to 45 minutes. Also include in your proposal the proposal type -- one of: - technical talk - end-user talk - birds of a feather (BOF) session Submit your proposal here: http://events.linuxfoundation.org/cfp You will receive a notification whether or not your presentation proposal was accepted by Sep 14th. END-USER COLLABORATION One of the big challenges as developers is to know what, where and how people actually use our software. We will reserve a few slots for end users talking about their deployment challenges and achievements. If you are using oVirt in production you are encouraged submit a speaking proposal. Simply mark it as an end-user collaboration proposal. As an end user, this is a unique opportunity to get your input to developers. BOF SESSION We will reserve some slots in the evening after the main conference tracks, for birds of a feather (BOF) sessions. These sessions will be less formal than presentation tracks and targetted for people who would like to discuss specific issues with other developers and/or users. If you are interested in getting developers and/or uses together to discuss a specific problem, please submit a BOF proposal. LIGHTNING TALKS In addition to submitted talks we will also have some room for lightning talks. These are short (5 minute) discussions to highlight new work or ideas that aren't complete enough to warrant a full presentation slot. Lightning talk submissions and scheduling will be handled on-site at oVirt Workshop. HOTEL / TRAVEL The oVirt Workshop Europe 2012 will be held in Barcelona, Spain at the Hotel Fira Palace. http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/kvm-forum/hotel Thank you for your interest in oVirt. We're looking forward to your submissions and seeing you at the oVirt Workshop Europe 2012 in November! Thanks, your oVirt Workshop Europe 2012 Program Commitee Please contact us with any questions or comments. workshop...@ovirt.org
Re: [Users] HA: Re: HA: Re: HP Integrated Lights Out 3
That fix worked for me (ipmilan wise, anyway. Still no go on ilo, but we knew that, right?). Thanks Itamar! Dmitriy, make sure you do this to all your host nodes, it may run the test from any of them. You'll also want to be sure you delete /usr/share/vdsm/BindingXMLRPC.pyc and .pyo, otherwise the compiled python is likely to still get used. Finally, I did need to restart vdsmd on all my nodes, service vdsmd restart on my Centos 6.3 system. Glad to know you can do that without causing problems for running vms. I did notice that the ovirt management GUI still shows 3 Alerts in the alert area, and they are all Power Management test failed errors dated from the first time their particular node was added to the cluster. This is even after restarting a vdsmd again and seeing Host xxx power management was verified successfully. in the event log. -Darrell On Sep 13, 2012, at 5:45 PM, Itamar Heim wrote: On 09/13/2012 08:42 AM, Dmitriy A Pyryakov wrote: Itamar Heim ih...@redhat.com написано 13.09.2012 11:09:24: От: Itamar Heim ih...@redhat.com Кому: Dmitriy A Pyryakov dpyrya...@ekb.beeline.ru Копия: Darrell Budic darrell.bu...@bigwells.net, users@ovirt.org Дата: 13.09.2012 11:09 Тема: Re: [Users] HA: Re: HP Integrated Lights Out 3 On 09/13/2012 06:00 AM, Dmitriy A Pyryakov wrote: Darrell Budic darrell.bu...@bigwells.net написано 13.09.2012 07:43:44: От: Darrell Budic darrell.bu...@bigwells.net Кому: Dmitriy A Pyryakov dpyrya...@ekb.beeline.ru Копия: Eli Mesika emes...@redhat.com, users@ovirt.org Дата: 13.09.2012 07:43 Тема: Re: [Users] HP Integrated Lights Out 3 I have this problem too.

Yes you are right there is a known issue with the mac address length in IB
cards. IIRC there was a hardware vendor who was working on a patch to extend
the length and add the appropriate validation.
