Subject: [Users] Post-Install Engine VM Changes Feasible?
Hi,
I'm in the process of installing 3.4 RC(2?) on Fedora 19. I'm using hosted
engine, introspective GlusterFS+keepalived+NFS ala [1], across six nodes.
I have a layered networking topology ((V)LANs for public, internal, storage,
compute and ipmi). I am comfortable doing the bridging for each
interface myself via /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-*.
Here's my desired topology: http://www.asciiflow.com/#Draw6325992559863447154
Here's my keepalived setup:
https://gist.github.com/josh-at-knoesis/98618a16418101225726
I'm writing a lot of documentation of the many steps I'm taking. I hope to
eventually release a distributed introspective all-in-one (including
distributed storage) guide.
Looking at vm.conf.in http://vm.conf.in, it looks like I'd by default end
up with one interface on my engine, probably on my internal VLAN, as
that's where I'd like the control traffic to flow. I definitely could do
NAT, but I'd be most happy to see the engine have a presence on all of the
LANs, if for no other reason than because I want to send backups directly
over the storage VLAN.
I'll cut to it: I believe I could successfully alter the vdsm template
(vm.conf.in http://vm.conf.in) to give me the extra interfaces I require.
It hit me, however, that I could just take the defaults for the initial
install. Later, I think I'll be able to come back with virsh and make my
changes to the gracefully disabled VM. Is this true?

I started from the same reference[1] and ended up statically modifying

Note that you should also be able to edit /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/vm.conf
after setup:
- put the system in global maintenance
- edit the vm.conf file on all the hosts running the hosted engine
- shutdown the vm: hosted-engine --vm-shutdown
- start again the vm: hosted-engine --vm-start
- exit global maintenance
Giuseppe, Joshua: can you share your changes in a guide for Hosted engine users
on ovirt.org wiki?
I simply added a second nic (with a fixed MAC address from the
locally-administered pool, since I didn't know how to auto-generate one) and
added an
index for nics too (mimicking the the storage devices setup already present).
My network setup is much simpler than yours: ovirtmgmt bridge is on an
isolated oVirt-management-only network without gateway, my actual LAN with
gateway and Internet access (for package updates/installation) is connected
to lan bridge and the SAN/migration LAN is a further (not bridged) 10
Gib/s isolated network for which I do not expect to need Engine/VMs
reachability (so no third interface for Engine) since all actions should be
performed from Engine but only through vdsm hosts (I use a split-DNS setup
by means of carefully crafted hosts files on Engine and vdsm hosts)
I can confirm that the engine vm gets created as expected and that network

Aditya, That is because that file doesn't exist. We map that name to a servlet in web.xml. If you want to modify the GWT host page take a look at GwtDynamicHostPageServlet.java and its sub classes (for user portal and webadmin). As well as GwtHostPage.jsp. You will find there is almost nothing in that page as all the HTML is being generated at runtime using GWT. Since you are not really explaining what you are trying to do we can't help you better on the best strategy to achieve what you want.

Last updated doesn't tell you about the feature that is stable and unchanged since 3.0, nor does it tell you that the feature is in constant flux and the latest commit just changed everything. You need 2 dates for maximum usefulness: Last updated, and Flagged out of date - if last updated is after the flagged date, something is wrong (flag should have been removed). If the flag is there then the page needs updating. Ideally, flagging the page would indicate the reason for the flag. Anyone know how you'd do this in a maintainable way in MediaWiki? Looking at mediawiki the only way I see is flagging all pages not updated in the last month with http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Outdated And having people to review them. I'm not sure if a bot can do the work of automatically flagging all pages not updated. Cheers, Dave.

In spite of our best efforts, that will probably always be true - it's the nature of Wikis. When I look for information on our Wiki, I never know where the most current information is. I think it would be really helpful if someplace on each Wiki page was a useful date to let us know the currency of the info. Probably the most useful date is last-modified, although creation date might also be useful. Maybe we could even map/display the date to the version number of whatever the current stable release was at the time for context (sometimes the content of a page calls out a particular version it's addressing, but a lot of the time it does not). Just as an example, I want to find out about migrating my existing configuration to self-hosted, using 3.4 RC2. A google search shows the following links (in order shown): http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Self_Hosted_Engine http://www.ovirt.org/Migrate_to_Hosted_Engine http://www.ovirt.org/Hosted_Engine_Howto ... I'm sure the Features page is ancient at this point. It's hard to tell about the 2nd page. Of course the date a page was last modified doesn't directly indicate how correct/current the information is, but there's a correlation. Knowing the date would be useful in making a judgment. It might even help the task of identifying and cleaning up obsolete pages.

[Users] I want to run a 2 storage host + 2 vm hosts as an environment.
I want to just install a running cluster. I understood I need either a live iso and install it or use some other methods. I would like to install it in a simple way and use one laptop as the engine. What iso version is recommended? I was thinking about gluseterfs to be the storage engine. Thanks, Eliezer ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
Re: [Users] [Engine-devel] migration of VM, which protocol actually works?

The web interface is written in GWT, so the post part happens in GWT. The database operations happen in the dal (data access layer) module, primarily using the DAO pattern. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_access_object for e.g i need to know which code actually collects the storage path for the ISO s during ISCSI storage domain setup. also how the hosts, clusters and data centers are made and stored at the backend. Hosts, Clusters, and Data Centers are all model objects. They live in UICommonweb. For example, see ClusterModel.java. And they are ultimately persisted to the database using the DAO pattern I mentioned. if i want to add a new UI that bypasses some of these complicated tasks (again for personal understanding), will I be able to do that. This sounds very difficult to achieve. Honestly, if you don't need these complicated tasks, perhaps oVirt is not the right tool for your use case. You might want to look at virt-manager or Kimchi. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KIMCHI Also i would like to mention that am working on making a little changes to how the ISCSI protocol works.. My another doubt is: when are the NFS/ISCSI/FC protocols actually used in ovirt. like what part of the VM running state? are their purpose limited to just copying the ISO from the storage center to the path required by the Host. The VMs *live* on these storage types. They are integral to how oVirt works. See http://www.ovirt.org/Architecture Are the protocols them self responsible for sending and getting data during VM execution on a node. The concept of node and migration has left me a little confused. since each node can run multiple VMs , so during the running/execution of the VM , do the network protocols actully work, if not , then how is that achieved. I don't understand your question, sorry. if yes, again my question arises, which module should i focus on regarding this issue. thanks -- -Aditya Mamidwar ___ Engine-devel mailing list engine-de...@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/engine-devel ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Hi, (Replying also to the list) - Original Message - From: David Smith dsm...@mypchelp.com To: Yedidyah Bar David d...@redhat.com Sent: Monday, March 17, 2014 5:01:55 PM Subject: Re: [Users] Instructions to add a remote controlled power strip not in the native list? Hi Yedidyah, Keep in mind it appears that your instructions are assuming some level of in depth knowledge of *some* database not described in that thread. In other words, for someone not extremely familiar with the oVirt database location and tables, would not have a clue as to what you're talking about in this email. I'm guessing this database is located locally on my ovirt-engine, but I wouldn't know where to start in how to get into it without causing major problems (ie, do I need to turn off the engine first?) and it would help if there were a detailed example with sql commands to make the necessary modifications to the dB to add a fence agent completely. This wasn't my email, it was Eli Mesika's. I just remembered that he sent it so it was easy to find. I agree that the instructions are not complete. The database was created during setup - you were asked about that and probably accepted the defaults, which create a local database called 'engine'. You can connect to it by doing: su - postgres psql engine Obviously, do not change anything before you understand what you are doing and have some good backup. You can read, and usually update, without taking the engine down. There is quite a lot of material on the ovirt wiki - please search and read a bit - e.g. for 'ovirt database'. Do not hesitate to ask (on-list) again if you have questions. You can also ask on irc for faster help.

Well I examined BZ 1067096 again, this is what did not work: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run Engine 3.3 Compatibility level 3.2 or 3.3 2. Add node (vdsm 4.14) Actual results: Host is installed with VDSM version (4.14) and cannot join cluster which is compatible with VDSM versions [4.13, 4.9, 4.11, 4.12, 4.10]. Pay attention to the engine version, it states 3.3. not 3.4.0 So my conclusion is, you can't install vdsm 4.14. when you want to use engine 3.3. Am I reading something wrong? Here's the link again: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1067096#c0 this can be fixed via engine config, but is not supposed to be needed, as vdsm is supposed to have vdsm/dsaversion.py.in:'supportedENGINEs': ['3.0', '3.1', '3.2', '3.3', '3.4'], danken/eli - thoughts? I do not really understand why we have this recurrent Engine bug, of ignoring supportedENGINEs; I think Yaniv does. i recall asking for detailed explanation for why do we have 3 different restrictions , one for supportedEngines, one for the allowed vdsm versions, and one for the cluster level? if vdsm version is supported why isn't it in engine's capabilities yet? because its a vdsm version which was released after that engine was released, hence the vdsm package has to declare its supporting the old engine. so its an hack to allow users to add beta vdsm version to new engine release?.. sounds like that no. its to add the next release of vdsm to a previously released engine. but that's not supposed to be an issue, since its supposed to already report the previous version of engine (which it does) please reopen if it reproduced the issue was verified in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1016461, please reopen if it still appears I do have an issue still with this. When I try to change compatibility version at the datacenter level it behaves as expected, i.e. warns me to change the cluster level first. I see a matching log entry in the engine log. However when I try to change the compatibility version at the cluster level the edit cluster dialog box just hangs there. There are no log entries in the engine log. The dialog box goes away when I click cancel. If I select 3.2 or 3.3 and click OK nothing happens. This occurs either during normal running or with hosts in maintenance mode. I would like to change to 3.3. Can you direct me to the sql table or cmd line by any chance. do not hack the db for such a change, you may skip important upgrade logic/validation. Is this a known problem or something specific to my special setup. Actually my setup is pretty plain, see below or original post in this thread. sounds like a bug, at least for not telling you what is the error. omer - thoughts? if nothing happens when clicking ok it's usually some validation in the dialog, can you check there is nothing highlighted in red (check also other tabs in the dialog)? Indeed, can be a validation problem (the better case) or can be an exception on FE (worse case). If you verify that there is no validation error on the dialog and the click does not work, could you please have a look at the javascript console on the FE? (you can do this in firefox by tools-web developer-web console and on the bottom select JS, simulate the issue and check if there is some exception. If there is, please send it and tell me also on what browser have you simulated it in). adding
