Hi, and thanks for your fast reply, but you are looking in the wrong direction. I was talking about the _qemu_-guest-agent not the ovirt-guest-agent. afaik they are not similar but ovirt seems to rebuild some of the capabilities which qemu-guest-agent already has. (Any reason why this is done btw?) afaik they share e.g. the ability to power down the vm. but qemu-ga also will allow cpu-hotplug and altering disk layout inside the guest in the future. I'm aware of your mentioned repository for the ovirt-guest-agent and I already reported that it works good so far (an offical repo would of course be better).

Re: [Users] Intel Modular Server Powermanagement
Hi,
afaik it should work when this fencing agent gets added to the engine
as was done to drac7 from dell recently here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1046625
http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/22833/
It seems to boil down to an sql command:
select
fn_db_add_config_value('FenceAgentMapping','drac7=ipmilan,ilo2=ilo,ilo3=ipmilan,ilo4=ipmilan'
,'general');
I don't know if intelmodular has an ipmi compatible mode?
So I think you have 2 options:
1. You may hack the DB yourself.
2. File a BZ with an RFE to add your fencing agent.
The latter should be done regardless of the first.

So I think you have 2 options:
1. You may hack the DB yourself.
Hi
Here are detailed instructions how to add a custom agent:
a) Add your new agent to VdsFenceType option_value in vdc_options table for the
relevant cluster version
b) Add agent options mappings to VdsFenceOptionMapping option_value in
vdc_options table for the relevant cluster version
c) If the agent maps actually to another agent , add that to FenceAgentMapping
option_value in vdc_options
Example : Adding zzz agent support for version 3.3 that maps internally to ipmi
and have just port setting (from: port, slot, secure) that maps to the fencing
script ipport
a) VdsFenceType for 3.3 becomes
apc,apc_snmp,bladecenter,cisco_ucs,drac5,eps,ilo,ilo2,ilo3,ilo4,ipmilan,rsa,rsb,wti,zzz
b) VdsFenceOptionMapping for 3.3 becomes
apc:secure=secure,port=ipport,slot=port;apc_snmp:port=port;bladecenter:secure=secure,port=ipport,slot=port;cisco_ucs:secure=ssl,slot=port;drac5:secure=se
cure,slot=port;eps:slot=port;ilo:secure=ssl,port=ipport;ipmilan:;ilo2:secure=ssl,port=ipport;ilo3:;ilo4:;rsa:secure=secure,port=ipport;rsb:;wti:secure=secure,port=ipport,slot=port;zzz:port=ipport
c) FenceAgentMapping becomes ilo2=ilo,ilo3=ipmilan,ilo4=ipmilan,zzz=ipmilan
NOTES
1) Please backup your database
2) You should restart the engine for this to take place
3) Custom definitions will be overridden in your next upgrade , for the long
run please fill RFE so it will be part of the supported agents
Please let me know if that works for you.
2. File a BZ with an RFE to add your fencing agent.
The latter should be done regardless of the first.

Hi Itamar, thanks for pointing this out. I didn't know the history of the code base. It seems that there always will be a difference in the functionality of qemu- and ovirt-agent. So my conclusion and advice would be to keep this duplicated functionality and, if possible, extend ovirt-guest-agent to be a superset of functions over qemu-guest-agent, thus avoiding installation of both agents. But I don't know if this is possible.

[Users] Showing stacktrace info in GUI error dialog
Hi, this is about patch [1] - showing server-side-exception stacktrace info in GUI error dialog. a couple of notes about this patch: (1) I find it a little strange that server-side exceptions are not logged in the server side and are / will be displayed only on the client-side - this needs to be fixed first. (2) once everything is logged on the server side, we can debate whether it makes sense to put the full exception stack-trace *also* in the GUI error pop-up. I think that it is not completely necessary (since if there is a server side exception, the user is likely to go to the server side log anyway to get the full picture / context), but if it is (and I'd like to hear your opinion about that) - we shouldn't show the entire exception in the dialog once the dialog is displayed - that's too much information to absorb. We should show whatever we are showing today, and also something like a More Details collapsible section (collapsed by default) that, when expanded, displays the full exception details. comments are welcome.

Re: [Users] issue with conversion of ESXi 5 centos VM to fedora19 ovirt host
The first thing I do in a situation like this is to disable iptables and firewalld, to see if the problem clears up. systemctl stop iptables; systemctl stop firewalld Then, if I actually need them (usually I don't), I drill deeper. Also, I always configure SELinux to permissive in /etc/selinux/config (but I don't know how to make that take effect immediately without reboot on Fedora). -Bob On 01/14/2014 11:38 AM, Sven Kieske wrote: Hi, I didn't reread the whole thread, but did you check firewall settings and SELinux if they permit NFS to those directorys?

Under ESXi I was pretty happy with the disk performance, and noticed very little difference from bare metal to HV. Under oVirt/QEMU/KVM, not so much…. Running hdparm on the disk from the HV and from the guest yields the same number, about 180MB/sec (SATA III disks, 7200RPM). The problem is, during disk activity, and it doesn’t matter if it’s Windows 7 guests or Fedora 20 (both using virtio-scsi) the qemu-system-x86 process starts consuming 100% of the hypervisor CPU. Hypervisor is a Core i7 950 with 24GB of RAM. There’s 2 Fedora 20 guests and 2 Windows 7 guests. Each configured with 4 GB of guaranteed RAM. Did you compare virtio-block to virto-scsi, the former will likely outperform the latter. Load averages can go up over 40 during sustained disk IO. Performance obviously suffers greatly. I have tried all combinations of having the guests on EXT 4, BTRFS and using EXT 4 and BTRFS inside the guests, as well as direct LUN. Doesn’t make any difference. Disk IO sends qemu-system-x86 to high CPU percentages. This can’t be normal, so I’m wondering what I’ve done wrong.

Dont like using root for the conversions though, too easy to destroy the source vms on ESX for my taste. Going forward i think i am going to make a conVIRT user instead of use root.. i'll let the list know how that goes. looks like NFS is the only thing that would need changing ( maybe i can make it a NFS only account) Madhav -Original Message- From: Matthew Booth mbo...@redhat.com To: Madhav V Diwan mdi...@diwanconsulting.com, Richard W.M.

(2) once everything is logged on the server side, we can debate whether it makes sense to put the full exception stack-trace *also* in the GUI error pop-up. I think that it is not completely necessary (since if there is a server side exception, the user is likely to go to the server side log anyway to get the full picture / context), but if it is (and I'd like to hear your opinion about that) - we shouldn't show the entire exception in the dialog once the dialog is displayed - that's too much information to absorb. We should show whatever we are showing today, and also something like a More Details collapsible section (collapsed by default) that, when expanded, displays the full exception details. comments are welcome. I personally appreciate web apps that allow me to see an error (or even expose an entire log file), but do so gracefully -- hide it under a option, That should read under a menu option use a More Details option like you mention, etc. I think saving a person the step of ssh'ing to a server and digging for a log file is a nice-to-have.

[Users] What's the correct way to upload a VM ISO image?
Hi, I am a little confused by the quick start guide. It lists a command to upload the ISO image: engine-iso-uploader upload -i local-iso-share [file1] [file2] [fileN] My questions are: 1. Do I have to copy the files (ISO images) from somewhere else to the engine machine before using this cmd? If image files are on a different server, what's the right syntax to upload them? 2. Is local-iso-share the name of the ISO domain? For example, should I use ISO_DOMAIN if I have the following: ISO Storage Domain Name | Datacenter | ISO Domain Status ISO_DOMAIN | DC-CPA3 | active 3. If I don't use engine-iso-uploader command, instead I prefer to uploading the image myself. What is the right directory for me to put my images in? Is it /var/lib/exports/iso on the machine running the ovirt engine? Thanks. David ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Re: [Users] [Engine-devel] Showing stacktrace info in GUI error dialog
Hi, I would like to correct a few things in this case. The reason for patch [1] was to identify, from which part of engine code InvocationTargetException came from. (more details are at [2] and [3]). In both cases this exception was not logged in engine.log or server.log Trying to verify this patch I found out this: 1) If this exception was raised during command/query execution, it would be part VdsReturnValue and shown in UI in Operation Canceled dialog. And what's most important, the exception would be definitely logged in engine.log 2) If this exception was raised on backend side outside of command/query execution (I simulated this by throwing RuntimeException inside Backend.runAction/runQuery) it would be shown in UI with HTTP status code (500 in this case) and also would be logged in engine.log 3) If this exception was raised somewhere servlet part of frontend code (GenericApiGWTServiceImpl) it would also be shown in UI with HTTP status code (500 in this case) and also would be logged in server.log 4) For all other cases there is shown dialog in UI with 'Error while executing action: A Request to the Server failed: XXX' where XXX is the exception message. Patch [1] adds stacktrace to this dialog so we will be able to identify origin of those rare exceptions. So the exception was raised somewhere else and since bugs [2],[3] wasn't been successfully reproduced yet, it's the only way how to find out origin of the exception. And I should also note, that I have no intention to show stacktrace in UI for normal exceptions described in 1), 2) or 3) Thanks Martin [1] http://gerrit.ovirt.org/23096 [2] http://bugzilla.redhat.com/1039248 [3] http://bugzilla.redhat.com/1034437 - Original Message - From: Greg Sheremeta gsher...@redhat.com To: Einav Cohen eco...@redhat.com Cc: engine-devel engine-de...@ovirt.org, users users@ovirt.org, Martin Perina mper...@redhat.com Sent: Tuesday, January 14, 2014 6:35:53 PM Subject: Re: [Engine-devel] Showing stacktrace info in GUI error dialog - Original Message - From: Einav Cohen eco...@redhat.com To: engine-devel engine-de...@ovirt.org, users users@ovirt.org, Martin Perina mper...@redhat.com Sent: Tuesday, January 14, 2014 11:23:34 AM Subject: [Engine-devel] Showing stacktrace info in GUI error dialog Hi, this is about patch [1] - showing server-side-exception stacktrace info in GUI error dialog. a couple of notes about this patch: (1) I find it a little strange that server-side exceptions are not logged in the server side and are / will be displayed only on the client-side - this needs to be fixed first. +1. (2) once everything is logged on the server side, we can debate whether it makes sense to put the full exception stack-trace *also* in the GUI error pop-up. I think that it is not completely necessary (since if there is a server side exception, the user is likely to go to the server side log anyway to get the full picture / context), but if it is (and I'd like to hear your opinion about that) - we shouldn't show the entire exception in the dialog once the dialog is displayed - that's too much information to absorb. We should show whatever we are showing today, and also something like a More Details collapsible section (collapsed by default) that, when expanded, displays the full exception details. comments are welcome. I personally appreciate web apps that allow me to see an error (or even expose an entire log file), but do so gracefully -- hide it under a option, use a More Details option like you mention, etc. I think saving a person the step of ssh'ing to a server and digging for a log file is a nice-to-have.
