I find using the web based VNC is the simplest from my mac. You can extract 
data from a console.vv file and open it with any VNC software on a mac, even 
Screen Sharing, but you have to enter the IP & port manually.  I’m not aware of 
any spice solutions at this moment, but i haven’t looked for one in a while.

[ovirt-users] How to best view remote console via macosX

I’m wondering what the best method is to get overt console support working from 
a MacOSx device.  I have tried opening console.vv files using vnc client as 
well as remote viewer and have not had any luck thus far.  Overt is version 
4.1.4

Bender: Are we boned?
Leela: Yeah, we're boned


So I built a new management host from scratch. I added one of my hosts,
and immediately crashed the vm's running on that hypervisor (they all
just stopped responding). I don't know why they didn't fail over, but
they didn't. Oh well. At least the other hypervisor is up!

So I tried following this guide to import my storage domain from the
section "Disaster Recovery flows" for "Import file Storage Domain".

https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/storage/importstoragedomain/

Yeah. That didn't work. It says it can't find any other domains to
import, but if I attempt to create a new one it says it can't because
there are existing domains!

Well, while I was poking at it the other VM's started acting up (crazy
high latency and the ovirt logs were really pissed at me). So I shut off
the ones that still responded, then shut down the other hypervisor. I
backed up the VM's on my NFS share, and created a new directory for the
data domain.

Guess I'm rebuilding my environment from scratch. I just hope I can get
some of the VM's to come back some how. :-/

Greetings,
Thanks, but I've tried that too. Even though it did delete the keystore,
I ended up with the exact same error. :-(

I'm doing a fresh install right now. I've never done an import like this
before. I just connect the fresh install to one of my hosts and I can
import the others hosts/vms/configurations?

AFAIC engine-setup will create the files needed. Try running engine-cleanup 
and maybe it will remove everything needed and then running engine-setup 
again?

But if all else fails you should be able to create a fresh engine, and after 
you have added a host, you should be able to import the existing storage 
domain (like you noted the VMs are still there).

Thanks for the suggestion. I've tried that. Twice. Still the same error.

"Keystore was tampered with, or password was incorrect."

From digging around in the logs, it looks like it is trying to access
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/.trustedstore but the password found in the ovirt
configs works just fine. So I know it is not a password issue.

I've been trying to figure out how that file is created so I can
possibly generate a new one, but no luck so far.

Thanks!

Running engine-setup on the engine machine should re-generate the keys.

Greetings,

I'm seriously just grasping at straws here. I took a spare hard drive,
tossed it in the management host, and did a fresh install. It did not
like me trying to add it into the existing infrastructure. Tried to dump
the DB from the old to the new, update the passwords, and pretty much
ended up in the same place.

I did check the .trustedkeystore and it has the same 1 key as my
original back up. So that isn't the issue.

Still poking at it. Would love some thoughts/feedback.

Thanks!

Re: [ovirt-users] oVirt management has lost its SSL.

2017-11-03 Thread ~Stack~
Greetings,

Please, I would greatly appreciate some help/feedback. I'm not sure what
else to do.

I reverted the .trustedstore to the only backup I have, and there is one
key in it. That too gets flagged by oVirt as having been tampered with
(I'm guessing oVirt added something that isn't there any more). The
password is correct as I can verify it from the oVirt config file on the
command line.

I'm out of ideas on fixing this. What happens to my oVirt hypervisors
and VM's if I rebuild the management engine host from scratch?

Thanks!

That works if you want to add to the bond.  It doesn't work if you want
to completely remove/change the bond (because -- oops -- you'll lose
connectivity)!

  Please don't put mobile usage over Desktop usage. While mobile
  usage is nice to have in "certain" situations. In real day by day
  operation nobody uses mobile devices to do their deployments and
  manage their large environments. If having both options where you
  can switch between then is nice, but if something should prevail
  should always be Desktop. We are not talking about a Stock Trading
  interface or something you need that level or flexibility and
  mobility to do static things anytime anywhere.

  So I beg you to consider well before remove things which are
  pretty useful for a day by day and real management usage because

Re: [ovirt-users] Messed up upgrade to 4.2. Solution badly needed.

2017-11-03 Thread FERNANDO FREDIANI
oVirt upgrades between versions (major or minor) has always been a bit 
difficult for some people, including me. It would be nice if this could 
be more extensively tested before release. As people are mostly eager to 
upgrade this can be benefitial to dev team to gather even more feedback 
from early adopters.

Hi,

cockpit is enabled by default when you use ovirt-node. You will
probably have to install the necessary cockpit packages yourself on
pure CentOS - you will need cockpit and ovirt + gdeploy cockpit
plugins (sadly I do not recall the exact package names).

With regards to arbiter and the wizard.. I really do not know, but I
will alert my colleagues who might have more detailed knowledge of the
gluster part.

Denis, Sahina: can you please help me here?

oVirt 4.2.0-0.0.master.20171030093856.gitc4dc9af.el7.centos

When I deployed hosted-engine I got a DNS warning just before the
configuration preview step.

WARNING: Host name  has no domain suffix
WARNING: Failed to resolve  using DNS, it can be resolved
only locally

--== CONFIGURATION PREVIEW ==--

...
Host address   : 
...

However hostname and hostnamectl return a FQDN, domainname on the other
hand returns (none)

dig  as used by the installer fails to return IP address

nslookup  does return the correct FQDN and IP address


Installation did finally suceed, but it took an age ( 20 + minutes )
looking like the process had hung waiting for VDSM

Re: [ovirt-users] Advise needed: building cheap HA oVirt cluster with just 2 physical servers

2017-11-03 Thread Martin Sivak
Hi,

you should take a look at the hyper converged way of installing oVirt.
We have a cockpit wizard that does almost everything for you:

https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/gluster-hyperconverged/chap-Deploying_Hyperconverged/

It uses three hosts and collocates the VMs together with Gluster storage.

Best regards

Nevertheless you could end up with a split brain situation because
you've no quorum.

So it doesn't matter which kind of cluster you want to build, but you'll
need a third node as a tiebreaker.

I know that a 2 node cluster with drbd would work, but not in all cases,
so do yourself a favor and get a third node.

[ovirt-users] windows remote-viewer vs. linux vm: strange keyboard problem

2017-11-03 Thread Uwe Laverenz

Hi all,

I have the following strange problem with virt-viewer 5.0 and 6.0 on 
Windows 10: when I connect to Linux VMs running on a OVirt 4.1 cluster 
it sometimes is not possible to use e.g. "AltGr + q" to get the "@"-sign 
or "AltGr+8" for "[" on my german keyboard. It seems to be a problem 
only when I use a dual screen setup with Linux VMs.


It is possible to get it working by just moving the mouse to the top 
center of the screen until the remote-viewer panel shows up. After this 
the keyboard works for a short period of time until I work on the other 
screen.


I tested CentOS 7,CentOS 6 and Fedora 26 VMs. Windows 7 VMs do not seem 
to show this problem, so I'm not sure if it is a problem with 
virt-/remote-viewer, OVirt/qemu or the Windows 10 client.


Does anybody else see this behaviour? What would the best place for a 
bug report, OVirt and Spice/virt-viewer are separate teams, right?


thanks in advance,
Uwe

Re: [ovirt-users] Advise needed: building cheap HA oVirt cluster with just 2 physical servers

2017-11-03 Thread Eduardo Mayoral
Exporting the VMs to an export storage domain on the first server,
copying the files to another export storage domain on the second server
and importing it should work. What kind of problem did you find?

As for the order of doing things, my first oVirt lab was a 3-node setup
with gluster (oVirt version 4.0). I found this guide helpful:

https://www.ovirt.org/blog/2016/08/up-and-running-with-ovirt-4-0-and-gluster-storage/

I see there is a new version of it:

https://www.ovirt.org/blog/2017/04/up-and-running-with-ovirt-4.1-and-gluster-storage/

If I understand correctly you plan to re-use the server you already
have. I think you will probably find it much easier have to export your
VMs, re-deploy and import your VMs back. It means some downtime, but you
seem very constrained on the hardware available and there is not much
room to manouver...

Good luck!

2017-11-03 Thread Johan Bernhardsson
On drbd you have one master and use iscsi to share the storage. If the 
master fails it will fail over to the other.


You have one up that will act as the iscsi storage and jump between the hosts.

If you run drbd master master ... Then you might get split brain and that 
is not fun :)

You´ll need to build the Gluster storage first, as you´ll want to

failed to replicate the existing VM's on the second server).

Regards,
Artem

For HA you will need some kind of storage available to all the compute
nodes in the cluster. If you have no external storage and few nodes, I
think your best option for storage is gluster , and the minimum number
of nodes you will need for HA is 3 (the third gluster node can be
metadata-only, but you still need that third node to give you quorum,
avoid split-brains and have something that you can call "HA" with a
straight face.

[ovirt-users] Advise needed: building cheap HA oVirt cluster with just 2 physical servers

2017-11-03 Thread Artem Tambovskiy
Looking for a design advise on oVirt provisioning. I'm running a PoC lab on
single bare-metal host (suddenly it was setup with just Local Storage
domain) and
no I'd like to rebuild the setup by making a cluster of 2 physical servers,
no external storage array available. That are the options here? is there
any options to build cheap HA cluster with just 2 servers?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, sadly Fedora is moving too fast to be able to match the changes
they've introduced between Fedora 24 and Fedora 27 which will be GA next
week.
I hope we'll be able to re-align with Fedora with oVirt 4.3.
