Re: [ovirt-users] cloud-init root password?
your mileage may vary! For example we use python api with cloud-init and template to reset root password (you can use for example command like this: openssl rand -hex 10) and to configure network / configuration files and freeipa... Michal, are you working with plain password or with salted hashed ones?

[ovirt-users] how to rename disk alias on python sdk
Hello all,
I want to rename a disk alias using python sdk, but I cannot find an update
method for object returned from api.disks.get (like cdrom, vm, datacenter
objects).
Simplified code is:
d1 = api.disks.get(id=7408f728-97e5-4b10-beb7-d9a70083797e)
d1.get_alias()
'FSBOVRHEL66TMP-1412_Disk1' -- OLD alias
d1.set_alias('PIPPO_Disk1')
d1.get_alias()
'PIPPO_Disk1' -- NEW alias
but after that I cannot find a method like d1.update() to commit changes
of disk object, what I miss?

[ovirt-users] Possible python api bug on api.clusters.list
Hello, before opening a new bug, I'm asking here if somebody could let me know if this is a bug or there are other ways to obtain clusters list... on python script I retrieve cluster list by using: clulist = api.clusters.list( datacenter= + PROD ) but this query on python script will be *automatically* expandend on something like evething datacenter containg word PROD - *PROD*, and on our env there are either NO_PROD datacenter and PROD datacenter, and this cause that clulist object contains every clusters on both datacenter. Instead ovirt-shell works fine and returns only clusters filtered by datacenter-identifier parameter. To better understand this is snippet of python code: clulist = api.clusters.list( datacenter= + PROD ) for clu in clulist: ... print Found cluster + clu.get_name() ... Found cluster NO_PROD THIS CLUSTER IS ON NO_PROD DATACENTER Found cluster PROD ovirt-shell snippet that works fine: [oVirt shell (connected)]# list clusters --datacenter-identifier PROD id : 168c0d5e-8f12-4377-aabf-604adfd36b2b name : PROD [oVirt shell (connected)]# list clusters --datacenter-identifier NO_PROD id : a092c9fc-0f5f-471e-8bca-b3828255aa5a name : NO_PROD [oVirt shell (connected)]# Is this a bug?

Hi Jim, I use ovirt template and freeipa for authentication, and on template i put a simple script setup-freeipa-client.sh to run on first boot, specifically for first boot I use cloud-init functions on ovirt, via web UI or via python sdk, and with cloud-init you can pass **evethings** you need - new hostname, new ssh keys, new network configurations, new root password, new content on configuration files, or simply executing a new script. If you are interested on cloud-init functions on python sdk have a look on a simple script that i wrote for our disaster recovery automation where on function buildYamlFile(line 124-137) by using cloud-init execution program/script, I change our freeipa server (lines 132-136) avoiding sssd timeout on contacting first two production freeipa server. https://github.com/amedeos/ovirt-scripts-dr/blob/master/StartAllVM.py HTH Amedeo Salvati Il 31/10/2014 20:01, users-requ...@ovirt.org ha scritto: Date: Fri, 31 Oct 2014 14:55:46 -0400 From: Jim Kinneyjim.kin...@gmail.com To:users@ovirt.org users@ovirt.org Subject: [ovirt-users] templates and freeipa Message-ID: CAEo=5PwfhT=cvvahcuj4gsxkufd-ufunbsn0q5mi9ee76eg...@mail.gmail.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Ovirt 3.5 is running well for me and I have freeIPA controlling access to the user portal.

To change the hostname you have to use the address property of the
Host class:
host=params.Host(
address=myhostname.example.com
)
The Host class is used for many things, including CloudInit and
hypervisors. But in this context it is just a container for the host name.
To debug cloud-init start the VM (with the GUI or with the RESTAPI),
then go to the hypervisor where it is actually running, and look for the
corresponding qemu-kvm process:
# ps -ef | grep qemu-kvm | grep myvm
The qemu-kvm command line will have a parameter indicating the file that
contains the cloud-init data:
-drive file=/var/run/vdsm/payload/...img
Copy that file somewhere, then mount it and inspect the content:
# cp /var/run/vdsm/payload/...img /tmp/my.img
# mount -o loop,ro /tmp/my.img /mnt
# find /mnt
...
# umount /mnt

New features include: oVirt 3.4 Release Notes * Hosted Engine: oVirt 3.4 features hosted engine, which enables oVirt engine to be run as a virtual machine (VM) on the host it manages. Hosted engine solves the chicken-and-the egg problem for users: the basic challenge of deploying and running an oVirt engine inside a VM. This clustered solution enables users to configure multiple hosts to run the hosted engine, ensuring the engine still runs in the event of any one host failure. * Enhanced Gluster Support: Gluster Volume Asynchronous Tasks Management enables users to re-balance volumes and remove bricks in Gluster operations/rebalance and remove bricks in Gluster volumes. * Preview: PPC64: Engine Support for PPC64 will add PPC64 architecture awareness to the ovirt-engine code, which currently makes various assumptions based on the x86 architecture. When specifying virtual machine devices, for example, what is suitable for x86 architecture may not be for POWER (or may not be available yet). VDSM Support for PPC64 introduces the capability of managing KVM on IBM POWER processors via oVirt. Administrators will be able to perform management functionalities such as adding or activating KVM, creating clusters of KVM and performing VM lifecycle management on any IBM POWER host. Migration is still a work in progress for KVM on IBM POWER processor. * Preview: Hot-plug CPUs: oVirt 3.4 adds a preview of a Hot-plug CPU feature that enables administrators to ensure customer's service-level agreements are being met, the full utilization of spare hardware, and the capability to dynamically to scale vertically, down or up, a system's hardware according to application needs without restarting the virtual machine. This release of oVirt also includes numerous bug fixes. See the release notes [1] for a complete list of the new features and bugs fixed. The existing repository ovirt-stable has been updated for delivering this release without the need of enabling any other repository. A new oVirt Node build is also available [2].

regarding virtio drivers, on linux, and if your kernel support them, you can
recreate / regenerate initram f.s., and then you can boot your vm linux coming

Do you have a good tutorial on this? I was wondering if this would be a needed
step when doing a P2V. It would be nice if the virtio drivers were included by
default.
no I haven't any tutorial... but it's not so complicated; if your
physical host has recent kernel they have support for virtio drivers (I
don't remember from which exactly rhel version virtio was included, but
probably was rhel5.4, and on ubuntu 10.04 also was included)
the only things to pay attention is to regenerate initramfs for the new
virtual env, because when you installed a physical machine, it detected
what drivers they could use to boot (for example on hp DL|BL it could be
cciss driver, and so initram f.s. on those hosts has cciss.ko module to
properly access to hp smart array disks)
so you can check your current initramfs of physical host, if has virtio
drivers by simply decompress it:
mkdir /tmp/initram
cp -p /boot/initramfs-2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64.img /tmp/initram/ --- use
your current kernel version
cd /tmp/initram/
mv initramfs-2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64.img
initramfs-2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64.img.gz
gunzip initramfs-2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64.img.gz
cpio -idv ./initramfs-2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64.img
now you can check if there are virtio drivers by:
find /tmp/initram/lib/modules/2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64 -name '*virtio*'
/tmp/initram/lib/modules/2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64/kernel/drivers/virtio
/tmp/initram/lib/modules/2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64/kernel/drivers/virtio/virtio.ko
/tmp/initram/lib/modules/2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64/kernel/drivers/virtio/virtio_ring.ko
/tmp/initram/lib/modules/2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64/kernel/drivers/virtio/virtio_pci.ko
/tmp/initram/lib/modules/2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64/kernel/drivers/scsi/virtio_scsi.ko
/tmp/initram/lib/modules/2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64/kernel/drivers/block/virtio_blk.ko
if there aren't you must regenerate it by using:
dracut on rhel6
mkinitramfs on debian/ubuntu
mkinitrd on rhel5, suse and gentoo
HTH
p.s. if I remember I've rebuilded initram f.s. only on rhel4|5 on p2v
and v2p, and obviously for virtio drivers and cciss driver (v2p)

hear hear!
if you have experience with this, please describe the steps you are using
(also the source platform),
Sources:
- Existing KVM (virt-manager/libvirt) platform
- ESX
- ova/ovf templates from several sources
Methods:
- KVM:
virt-v2v with libvirtxml option, works reasonably well, most issues
are with windows guests where virt-v2v needs libguestfs-winsupport and
virtio-win (RHEL only)
- ESX:
virt-v2v which works reasonably well_if_ the right packages
(libguestfs-winsupport virtio-win) are installed.
virt-v2v can be used directly from ESX/ESX host (configure .netrc
first) but this is quite slow
another option is to export the VM as an OVA and then import it with virt-v2v
- ova/ovf templates:
hit and miss with virt-v2v, especially if they contain something
that is not a regular windows/linux guest.
Another option is to do a direct copy of the disks on a pre-created
VM, clumsy.
and how you would like to see this make simpler
(I'm assuming that would start from somewhere in the webadmin probably).
Webadmin would be nice, but better behaviour from existing tools would be
a nice start too.
For example: the flow with virt-v2v is
1) Analyze source, look for disks
2) Convert/copy disks to ovirt export domain
3) Try to add virtio stuff to the copied disks on the export domain
If step 3 fails ( which happens a LOT), the copied disks are removed.
This is very frustrating if you just waited a couple of hours for a large
VM (e.g. 200GB) to be copied:(
Some kind of graceful abort/resume would be VERY welcome.
Another issue with virt-v2v is that it_always_ tries to add virtio drivers.
I have a virtual appliance that contains some kind of proprietary embedded OS:
adding drivers will always fail, give me some option to override that
and configure
simple ide / e1000 hardware for the VM
regarding virtio drivers, on linux, and if your kernel support them, you
can recreate / regenerate initram f.s., and then you can boot your vm
linux coming from vmware with virtio drivers... same process when doing
p2v or v2p

You don't have to attach/detach the domain for every VM export. Sorry for not

May have miscommunicated that...
I can not do this because this kind of means that the vms will be down
during the whole movement process. I'd like to reduce the per-vm
downtime as much as possible.
With best Regards,
Tobias
you can decrease the downtime by:
- live snapshot VM1;
- clone VM1 from snapshot to VM1-NEW (during this process VM1 is
uprunning);
- export VM1-NEW to export domain (VM1 uprunning);
- detach export domain from old DC;
- attach export domain to new DC;
- import VM1-NEW (VM1 still uprunning);
- start VM1-NEW on single mode and configure;
- stop apps from VM1 (downtime);
- optionally sync app data from VM1 to VM1-NEW (downtime);
- start apps on VM1-NEW (apps uprunning on new DC).
- stop VM1 on old DC.

Hi,
The low disk space is controlled by a parameter in the engine called
FreeSpaceCriticalLowInGB, and can be configured using the cli tool engine-config.
you should be able to set it to something like 4 GB or maybe 3GB so you can
start your vms with the following command:
engine-config -s FreeSpaceCriticalLowInGB=3
After doing this you have to restart the engine service (service ovirt-engine
restart) for the changes to take effect.
If you want to see what the current value is use engine-config -g
FreeSpaceCriticalLowInGB.
To see a list of all configurable values you can use engine-config --list
Thanks,
Gadi Ickowicz
It did the trick, thanks!
Could this parameter impact in general only start of new VMs or in any
way also already running VMs?

added gluster-users as they can responde to us questions.
Gianluca, as you are using glusterfs, and as I can see on your df output:
/dev/mapper/fedora-DATA_GLUSTER 30G 23G 7.8G 75%
/gluster/DATA_GLUSTER
node01.mydomain:gvdata 30G 26G 4.6G 85%
/rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/node01.mydomain:gvdata
be careful to gluster cluster.min-free-disk option, that on gluster 3.1
and 3.2 it's default option is 0% (good for you!)
http://gluster.org/community/documentation//index.php/Gluster_3.2:_Setting_Volume_Options#cluster.min-free-disk
but I can't find the same documentation for gluster 3.4, that I suppose
you're using this gluster version on ovirt; otherwise on red hat storage
documentation cluster.min-free-disk default option is 10% (bad for you):
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Storage/2.1/html/Administration_Guide/chap-User_Guide-Managing_Volumes.html
so you fill your gvdata volume up to 90% and let we know if it's stop
I/O (or only write) or we can wait for a clarification from gluster guy :-)

Hi all,
I'm testing ovirt+glusterfs with only two node for all (engine,
glusterfs, hypervisors), on centos 6.5 hosts following guide at:
http://community.redhat.com/blog/2013/09/up-and-running-with-ovirt-3-3/
http://www.gluster.org/2013/09/ovirt-3-3-glusterized/
but with some change like setting on glusterfs, parameter
cluster.server-quorum-ratio to 50% (due to prevent glusterfs to go down
if one node goes done) and option on /etc/glusterfs/glusterd.vol option
base-port 50152 (due to libvirt port conflict).
So, with the above parameter I was able to stop/reboot node not used to
directly mount glusterfs (eg lovhm002), but when I stop/reboot node,
that is used to mount glusterfs (eg node lovhm001), all data center goes
done, especially when I stop service glusterfsd (not glusterd
service!!!), but the glusterfs still alive and is reachable on node
lovhm002 that survives but ovirt/libvirt marks DC/storage in error.
Do you have any ideas to configure DC/Cluster on ovirt that remains
aware if node used to mount glusterfs goes down?
This seems to be due to client quorum in glusterfs. It can be observed
that client quorum is on since option cluster.quorum-type has been set
to value auto.
client quorum gets enabled by default as part of Optimize for Virt
action in oVirt or by enabling volume set group virt in gluster CLI.
client quorum gets enabled by default to provide additional protection
against split-brains. In case of a gluster volume with replica count
2, client quorum returns an error if writes/updates fail in more than
50% of the bricks. However, when the replica count happens to be 2,
updates are failed if the first server/glusterfsd is not online.
If the chances of a network partition and a split brain is not
significant in your setup, you can turn off client quorum by setting
option cluster.quorum-type to value none.
yea!
setting quorum-type to none has solved the issue... now I'm able to have
a two node ovirt/gluster DC aware of faulting one node, except for
engine portal that at this moment resides on only one node (sigh :-( )
I'm waiting for self hosted engine)
