Hi friends!

I have just upgraded from 3.2 to 3.4 and it was very nice. Everything 
ok! Now I want to enable Gluster Service to my cluster in production.


I think follow this steps:

* Install manually vdsm-gluster
* Restart supervdsm and vdsmd
* Enable Gluster Service in my Cluster.

Could it cause any problem or downtime?


No, there should not be any issues due to this.

When you manually install vdsm-gluster, the glusterfs packages will be 
installed.
There's an additional step you will need to perform manually - peer 
probe the hosts to add these hosts to the gluster pool using gluster 
peer probe hostname


To avoid the manual steps, is to re-install host after enabling gluster 
service - but this could cause a downtime.





Thanks.

Re: [ovirt-users] async vm start (python)

2014-10-15 Thread Giulio Casella

Thanks Juan,
this clearify a lot of things. So starting a VM is always a synchronous 
task in the backend, isn't it?
But in some condition (heavy load of hypervisors) this task takes long 
time (up to 20/30 seconds), not really suitable for sync tasks.

Maybe I should submit a feature request...

Ciao,

The async parameter that you are passing to the REST API is only a
hint. It means that *if* the action performed by the backend has
associated async tasks then the REST API will not wait for them to
finish. In this particular case, the action performed by the backend
doesn't have async tasks, so the parameter is just ignored.

The REST API doesn't know if the action is sync or async before it is
executed, only once it has been executed. In this particular case it
looks like it is always sync, but I can't tell you for sure. Actually,
it could be sync in some situations and async in others, and this can
change from version to version.

 But in some condition (heavy load of hypervisors) this task takes long

Yes, a RFE makes sense, please open it.

[ovirt-users] ovirt network VLAN tagging

2014-10-15 Thread qiaomin032
 1.
Create a new logical network from the networks main tab: define its

data-center and set its vlan-id to 50 (the
VM network checkbox should be checked)

2. Click on the created network in the
networks main tab --- Select the

 'Clusters' sub-tab and --- click on
'Assign/Unassign Network' and

 attach the network to the cluster (which
contains the hosts that are

 expected to run the VMs).

 3.
Click on 'hosts' sub-tab of the network main tab for the same

 network. You should be able to see the cluster's
hosts. Select a host

 and
click on 'Setup Networks'.

4. In the 'setup networks' dialog you would
see the host's interfaces on

 the
left side and the logical networks definition on the right.

Drag the network on top of an interface, or
first drag a nic on top of

 another to create a bond and then drag the
network to that bond.

 A
command will be sent from the engine to the vdsm on the host to

 configure the desired network configuration.

 5.
In order to persist the network configuration on the host you can

 check the 'save network configuration' from 4.

 

I followed the steps above to create two
networks, vlan tagging nameed 50 and 60. My Engine has two hosts, that is, two
nodes. And I created some vms. The vms which using different networks can not
communicate with each other, this is right. But there is a question: the vms
using the same network and in different hosts can not communicate with each
other, but the vms using the same network and in the same host can communicate
with each other. Could you please explain the reason for me and help me solve
this problem?___

 as I did today. I'm a fairly experienced VMWare user who's learning ovirt. I 
 just installed an all-in-one ovirt server and copied a CentOS 6.5 iso into 
 it. I then tried to boot a new VM but soon learned that console access is 
 different in ovirt than on VMWare. I then spent over an hour trying the 
 various documented ways to view a remote console using Spice on my Windows 7 
 desktop. I even tried using a Linux VM to see if the Firefox plugin for Spice 
 would work. Nothing. What finally worked was installing the virt-viewer 
 Windows client (http://virt-manager.org/download/ [1]). Then, I opened the 
 ovirt Administration Portal in Firefox running on my Windows 7 desktop. I 
 created a
  new VM
and configured it the way I wanted. Then, from the Virtual Machines tab, I 
started the new VM. Pretty soon the little console icon turned green so I 
clicked on it. I got the prompt from Firefox asking me what app I wanted to 
associate with the .vv URL that opened when I clicked on the console icon. I 
browsed around and selected Program FilesVirtViewerbinremote-viewer.exe which 
is from the virt-viewer client package I installed above. I told Firefox to 
always use this app for this kind of file. This works great! I was able to boot 
the CentOS system and install it with no problems. Good luck! Jon Forrest Hi, I 
have one problem with that. I believe that the problem is rather in oVirt, not 
the viewer. I have oVirt installed at work and I also have connection to the 
work environment using IPv6 tunnelling (Windows WAN). In the oVirt all hosts 
are added using FQDN. The problem is that all hosts in the LAN (inside the 
company) are resolved via IPv4 and the same FQDN is resolved v
 ia IPv6
when I'm connected via WAN. In the console.vv file I can see the IPv4 address 
unfortunately and the connection to the console via WAN is not working. If I 
change the file putting FQDN to the host= line everything is working fine. 
How to change the oVirt? I'd prefer that the line host= contains the FQDN (or 
whatever is being put in the engine database) not the IP address?

there's a Display address override per host where you can map each
host's console address to something else; some other IP or FQDN
you just need to set it for all hosts

michal

Re: [ovirt-users] ovirt network VLAN tagging

2014-10-15 Thread Juan Pablo Lorier
Hi,

It seems to me that it may be a switch configuration problem. The vms in
the same host can talk to each other via the bridge, but if your switch
is not configured to allow tagged traffic for vlans 50 and 60 (and all
the way to the interface of the other host must allow tagged traffic for
those vlans), you won't be able to get traffic.
Regards,

 lots of unneeded cruft.
 
  
  I, however, prefer point-and-click over markdown / latex / etc.

 Hi,

 When we do some tasks in ovirt as delete an snapshot or clone a
 machine or just want to make a machine template the impact on VMs
 residing on the SPM node is huge. Is there a way to prevent this?
 This is just normal tasks and we do this all the time.

 Just bump this thread to know if this is a common issue or if there is
 some configuration we must do.
I think this is a common issue and one of the reasons why SPM goes away
in 3.6 [1].

Please see the thread from some time ago, I put it in the end.
Markus Stockhausen summarizes my experiences quite well:

Lessons learned so far for us:

- run SPM on the smallest host (with the fewest running VMs)
to  mit mitigate side effects of high CPU/disk utilization.

- Clear page cache if nodes run out of free memory.

Betreff: [ovirt-users] Disk migration eats all CPU, vms running in SPM 
become unresponsive

Hello:

I am experiencing some troubles with ovirt nodes:

When a node is selected as SPM and I move a disk between storage
domains, it seems that migration process eats all CPU and some VMs
(running on the SPM) hang, others lose network connectivity. The events
tab at Ovirt Engine reports the CPU exceeding the defined threshold and
then reports that VMs in such host (SPM) are not responding.

How can I debug this? Why do the VMs become unresponsive or lost network
connectivity when the host CPU goes too high?

I have attached a screenshot of the ovirt-engine events, and the
relevant engine.log


My setup:

oVirt Engine Version:
 3.4.0-1.el6 (Centos 6.5)
Nodes:
 Centos 6.5
 vdsm-4.14.6-0.el6
 libvirt-0.10.2-29.el6_5.9
 KVM: 0.12.1.2 - 2.415.el6_5.10 (jenkins build)

Hi, 

just a quick guess:

I would start the analysis by looking if SPM is swapping during the 
disk move. We had issues during snapshot deletion. More details at 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1116558

If you encounter BSODs for windows VMs during that operation have 
a look at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1110305

Lessons learned so far for us:

- run SPM on the smallest host (with the fewest running VMs)
to  mit mitigate side effects of high CPU/disk utilization.

- Clear page cache if nodes run out of free memory.

Re: [ovirt-users] qemu-rhev in centos 7

2014-10-15 Thread Nathanaël Blanchet
On fedora, qemu-kvm is enough for live snapshot, so it is already 
compiled into. I've been said that this function was added right from 
qemu-kvm 1.x.

check out the recent comment on the user list :


Hey all,

I dont know if it is supported but I am using a CentOS 7 hypervisor with 
oVirt 3.4.4. This gave me the ability to use live snapshots. The only trouble I have had 
is remembering not to live migrate from the 7 hypervisor to the 6.5.



So I guess this user don't need qemu-kvm-rhev for live snapshot on el7...

Nathan, what do you say?

Hello,

native el7 qemu-kvm package is 1.2.x so that it is supposed to contain
the missing flag in el6 0.12 one for live migration. I saw that
qemu-kvm-rhev.el7 was also provided in the ovirt repo, but may be
unuseful, in this case... what do you think ?(I didn't try livre
migration yet with el7 native qemu)

you would need qemu-kvm-rhev. its about compiled options, not versions.

i wasn't aware there is a nehalem without AES.
this causes libvirt to not identify/report any identified cpu, rather a 
generic one (cpu64-rhel6).

is this what you also get from 'vdsClient -s 0 getVdsCaps | grep cpu' ?

  Speaking of which, may I hijack this thread in order to ask why we don't
  have a slideshow template that looks like a slideshow template? With
  non-white background, colors in general, some graphics/patterns,
  thought-out bullet design, etc.?
 
 +1 here, you're more UI oriented person than I am , Lior , but now that you
 raised it, it suddenly popped into me as well - I would also like to see
 some improvement in that area.
 Thanks for the initiative!

[cc'ing Brian and Eldan]

Brian has been working on this kind of stuff lately. Brian, are you interested
in working on making a prettier presentation template? Perhaps it could match
our new PatternFly-based look -- just a thought. I'm sure we could find some
design folks to help out (maybe Eldan? :))

  This template just doesn't look like it means business. Not business
  as in the money-making way, business as in talking about a serious
  project with a serious brand. But maybe that's just me...
