Hi,
I would like to propose to the community to join creating a group for testing 
oVirt
releases and oVirt bug fixes. I suggest to create a ovirt-qe mailing list and 
set
that as default QE assignee for oVirt bugs.
The list may be used for coordinating testing efforts, to be notified about 
new ovirt bugs,
to plan test days, propose test cases, discussing about jenkins jobs 
implementation and so on.
Forming just a small group of people testing milestones release will also help 
in having better release testing.
What do you think about this?

 Hello,

 I have tried to click on all activate buttons I have found but nothing

 Only one time I got:

 What can I do now??

 No, yum update won't upgrade ovirt packages.

 If you're running on Fedora, you need to update Fedora first, then run
 engine-upgrade.  If you're on EL6, a simple engine-upgrade should work.

 Be careful when you use glusterfs, not nfs over glusterfs,
 but read the release-notes. It should have something to say
 about glusterfs domain not (yet) working on el6. Saw a small
 discussion on irc just yet and my two cents are that you
 can't add el6 support to ovirt in release 3.2 and then
 withdraw it with 3.3 and say well just wait for
 Centos/Rhel-6.5.

 We haven't removed any functionality in 3.3.  In 3.2, we added
 support for gluster domains through a POSIXFS interface.  In
 3.3, we're adding a feature where we support gluster natively.
 This works in Fedora, but is not available on EL6.  The POSIXFS
 option still exists
 You're right but what about users who want to use the (much)
 improved speed of the gluster domain over the POSIXFS interface?
 They are left out or they should move to Fed19 which I would do
 but I need to convince a couple of other people as well and they
 aren't going to agree.

 I understand the complaint, honestly.  And we're working on a
 solution so that it will work for people on EL6.

 From the perspective of whether we should release with this
 limitation or not, I'd point out that by not releasing, we'd be
 preventing everyone from using any of the new features until we get
 a solution for this. I'd rather release and make it available for
 everyone now and say that the Gluster domain for EL6 will come as
 soon as we can work out the dependency issues.



 The kernel can come from elrepo so that is not a burden for
 the ovirt team, qemu/libvirt should be build by the ovirt
 team and be available from the ovirt repo. At the moment I
 also see/saw Jboss-7.1.1 qemu/libvirt wouldn't be the first
 packages to be in the ovirt-repo which are also in the main
 distributions repos.

 We're trying to work out a way to do this in a consistent
 manner going forward.  We should have a solution soon, but in
 the meantime, the other functionality and features should work
 on both Fedora and EL6.
 Thanks for the clarification and I'm waiting eagerly for
 what/when the solution comes out.

 There have been a few considerations for solving this including
 rebuilding pure upstream or fedora packages for EL6.  That is a
 risky solution in my mind since there are rather large deltas
 between Fedora and EL6.  We're looking at whether we can have a
 virt-preview type of repo for EL6 similar to what exists today
 for Fedora[1].

 AFAIK This is more a CentOS- than an oVirt-issue. CentOS behaves

 If I remember correctly, this is due to the fact that the
 MAC-address of the virtual NIC has to change, when you create a VM
 from a template. CentOS however keeps the MAC address of the
 template and just adds the new MAC, which then of course becomes
 eth1.

Re: [Users] Fwd: cannot assign network without IP address

2013-04-07 Thread Vincent Van der Kussen
Hi, 

Ok, I'll do the upgrade some day but this raises some questions.
Thanks for the reply!

Now that there are el6 packages available, oVirt could be used in
small production environments by people who can't afford a RHEV subscription
or don't need the support 

So I'm wondering if there will be some more extensive QA?
At some point it would be nice to have version that is usable without
you need to keep updating to fix things.


I know some people in the CentOS community are interesting in this so 
it might be an idea to work together?

just my 2c

Hi,

 Hi :-)
 I've been migrating VMs using the web administration but I need Power
 Management on each host so that the engine detects that a host is
 down, right?
 

Yes, it needs to be fenced.


Regarding the topic of this mail which grabbed my attention.
when I think about HA and oVirt I think about the following :

- oVirt Engine/RHEV-M can failover to an other host
- The shared storage is also available on the other side.

I've been testing migrating Engine in case it fails in a POC
by putting Engine in a KVM VM under control of pacemaker and 
DRBD to drop the need of shared storage.

The storage part is something I haven't found a solid solution
for.  Maybe with DRBD, but there must be a better way i think.

 Hi Everyone,
 
 as we wrap oVirt 3.2, I wanted to check with oVirt users on what
 they find good/useful in oVirt, and what they would like to see

Hi, 

Deploying multiple VMs from 1 template at the same time. Currently you have to 
wait until the template image is available again.

[Users] Python script retrieving MACs

2012-12-05 Thread Vincent Van der Kussen
Hi, 

Im currently making a script using the Python SDK to retrieve a list of VM 
names + their MAC address.
I currently came up with this

 17 vm = api.vms.list()
 18 
 19 
 20 for item in vm:
 21 hostname = item.get_name()
 22 nic = api.vms.get(name=hostname).nics.list()
 23 for net in nic:
 24 nicname = net.mac.get_address()
 25 print %s % hostname
 26 print %s % nicname

I've noticed that retrieving the nic list during the iteration does a logon 
each time which slows thing down dramatically.
Is there a better way to get the NICs from a list of VMs?

Regards,
Vincent

[Users] Mailinglist naming

2012-10-30 Thread Vincent Van der Kussen
Hi all, 

I was just wondering if it would be possible to rename the mailinglist from 
Users to ovirt-users or something. I think it would be just a bit more clear 
when looking at your inbox.

This is just a suggestion. Don't take this as critic!

 I assume you're talking about the mailing list subject prefix, not
 the mailing list name - is that correct?
 
 I don't see why not, but would like to get opinions from others. Our
 mailing lists and other infrastructure have a dedicated team that
 manages them.
 
 Cheers,
 Dave.

Hi Dave, 

I'm indeed talking about the subject prefix. Sorry for the confusion.

Have you tried  

  engine-iso-uploader -i local-iso-share upload

Maybe I could avoid the problem, if there was another way for

It doesn't appear to be build yet.
Step 1: git clone [6]http://gerrit.ovirt.org/p/ovirt-iso-uploader.git

Hi Keith/Tobias,
 
 
how can I set the insecure flag?
 
The engine-iso-uploader tool doesn't have such a parameter.

   Subject: [Users] How to resize physical disk size with virt-p2v
  
 
   Hi,
  
   we’re currently using oVirt engine3.0 and have about 50 VMs
   successfully running ( thanks for your great work!!)
  
 
   At the moment we do migrate ESX/KVM VMs and baremetal servers to
   oVirt.
  
   For p2v migration we’re using virt-p2v 0.87 (iso created from rpm
   virt-p2v-image-builder)
  
   Migration is working fine, but the vdisk size is accordingly to
   original physical hdd size.
  
   For example:
  
   Server with 500 GB HDD size, partitions (swap,/,boot) shrinked to
   ~50
   GB.
  
   (df –h will show only 50 GB for / )
  
 
   First I thought, shrinking partitions of the server will help out,
  
   But unfortunately, the tool is using the whole hard disk space to
   convert (using dd ?)
  
   …and so we have a successfully migrated VM in oVirt with 500GB vHDD
   size.
  
 
   Is there any way or alternative software we can use for P2V
   migration?
  
 
   Thanks in advance,
  
   Sven.

Hi, 

Maybe you can try using clonezilla to only export the partitions of your 
physical machine. Unless they take the full disk of course.
