Re: [ovirt-users] Fwd: RE: FC QLogic question
Hi,
Sorry, I got waylaid at the end of yesterday - catching up... (sorry for
length of thread now as well, but would like to get to the bottom of this)
Have seen posts about ovirt-node... I personally like the idea and hope that it
continues to develop. Having to load a Linux distro up and then put ovirt
hypervisor on it is more work and then you need to worry about upgrading the
linux distro and ovirt and suddenly ovirt doesn't run on the distro you have
and you start over. IMHO anyway.
All of the LUN names are listed in /dev/mapper
/etc/multipath.conf is thus
# RHEV REVISION 1.0
defaults {
polling_interval5
getuid_callout /sbin/scsi_id --whitelisted --replace-whitespace
--device=/dev/%n
no_path_retry fail
user_friendly_names no
flush_on_last_del yes
fast_io_fail_tmo5
dev_loss_tmo30
max_fds 4096
}
devices {
device {
vendor HITACHI
product DF.*
getuid_callout /sbin/scsi_id --whitelisted --replace-whitespace
--device=/dev/%n
}
device {
vendor COMPELNT
product Compellent Vol
no_path_retry fail
}
}
But on the multipath -ll round robin is enabled...
I can't see how the firmware missing can be a problem if all my disks are
appearing on node. Some cards don't need to be flashed, they can be if needed
but if my LUNs are appearing, then I assume it is working.
Sorry, I am very new to node and not much experience with FC under Linux, so
trying to get up to speed on commands...
Which ovirt am Iusing? Not sure what you want back, uname -a yields
2.6.32-431.3.1.el6.x86_6
The iso I used is ovirt-node-iso-3.4-20140423.0.el6.iso from the
releases/stable/iso folder - I am fairly sure, there are two ISOs there.
Unfortunately I am not in the office today and can't get to the desktop where I
burned the ISOs from...
Thanks
Bill

Hello Fabian,
indeed this was my mistake; while typing the mail I was reading on
the spice website - so qla is the correct module of course! I
already replied this to Bill but forgot to cc the list also ...
Also, for the node iso it would make little sense to have the qlx
module loaded. For completeness, I attach my answer to Bill.
Thanks :)
So to summarize:
The adapter is recognized on Node?
But it does not show up in Engine?
Bill has to tell, but I think so. I suggested to him this might be
Ah, I mixed you an Bill up in the thread.
because of dm-multipath, multipath.conf might blacklist here. My nodes
are plain EL6 and I have multipath enabled - but I do not know if
ovirt-node filters for dm-mp devnodes only by default (this would make
sense because of iscsi-multipathing in ovirt 3.4).
Well, we did some multipath changes lately. Let#s see what Bill says:
Bill,
what node are you using?
What does multipath -l say?
How does /dev/mapper/* and /dev/multipath.conf look like?
And is the disk appearing on Node and/or Engine?
Thanks!
fabian
Maybe you can help out on this topic?
Thanks!

I'd need your help to verify that we are also including all
relevant dependencies.

Indeed, sorry for that.
lsscsi does list all of the LUNs... so that's working!
Great!
But nothing in ovirt engine when I try to add a storage domain.
Please check back in ovirt engine, with Hosts / Hardware info. You
should see the adapter there, along with WWN's ect.
I am not quite sure, but AFAIK the node uses dm-multipath by
default (for iscsi multipathing). So what does:
# multipath -ll
list?
Thanks again, I guess I will try and get a bit further with the
installs I have...

Re: [ovirt-users] Fwd: RE: FC QLogic question
This could also be an selinux issue with FC on the node, I've hit that one before.

Discouraging people to use it (or any other component) won't help the project. We are here to listen the feedback from users to improve the software and sometimes adding new features based in their requests and suggestions. I know you are a very active contributor in this project and thanks for that, if you still have issues in the node please keep the bugzillas coming. Sorry for getting Off-Topic: Well yeah, I see lots of improvement, also in the node project. But when people ask about what do you recommend for production I really can't call for node (yet). Most deployments tend to need customization specific to the site where the deployment takes place and in the past it was very hard to alter node for your personal needs (that's also not the projects main goal imho). I don't want to discourage anyone from testing node, but I won't recommend it for production, as I wouldn't recommend fedora (and breakage has happened for people using fedora, just search this mailing list). I really appreciate all the work that is done and I see many improvements, but when it comes to giving advice, some developers are a little naive, I can even make a list: someone has a problem in production: yeah this is fixed in $BETA (or $ALPHA), just try it out (without even mentioning that it's a beta release!) you could easily backport the fix yourself, it's just a one liner you need to alter config param $X (not mentioning this param gets overwritten on upgrades) and so on. I know these are all just good intentions, but I think some people seem to think those people asking are all just running test environments, which is plainly wrong, or I don't know what they think, maybe that it's already robust enough. the project has matured so much, you should keep in mind people might use it to run their business/store sensitive data/host very critical machines on top of ovirt. this is great, but this also comes with some kind of responsibility on the side of a developer. At least that's my opinion when I develop stuff (not such huge projects ;) ) I know there are labels on every open source project and in all software licenses like use at your own risk. But there is some moral responsibility for stuff you do you can't talk away with some legal paper saying your not responsible for what you do (code) or advice you give. Maybe you should just ask yourself sometimes: would I do myself what I just advocated if I have really sensible data in my environment? Anyway, keep up the good work! I know it's all good intentions and of course every developer wants his new features getting used. :) Thanks Sven -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (MingW32) iQGcBAEBAgAGBQJUEiDjAAoJEAq0kGAWDrqlNzsL/1EWhurbdEgt1jhBb/stoNhH KnOANZyYCYUoUttGxG3h3KxM0wRA1mfpSO+yOtVYd/bfclu0M6dy5oRpRw4Q3m2U VGVKqyDKsuQSaYX9CGOY90sYyO8DCt+KV04IN/XntsSpudF5Y+V7EqgBAaGqSS3N ETNL9Jru91pdnJ+ThXtdEsp05DXg7pYYKTRFJ3mCEQOsD2AkcUlz91tQ2h7tC6ZF KPjdRLK2iwQR/ssKduPdirlJ/jxW1K2JaBWUJx9OLLFLpm7D6Ea87beIQwGqX27S jSk1lDm3MGJbK2cuKxZ8rDUnoJFa0DFkUi1pxp6l9IheOirXrvHcW57WkdUkZTb8 7fAeDMpFG3fny0+duAANneMI05NtA9hPl1Vnn6QBnp+nb7GET5JhcEpdgPe17h+W hCBdgfN1OveLscN8E8hGrV9YKKUxkJkFAcXhgxOrTW23z6rwwYDG46t630xTSgIp g401Zs7wyHZVb2FEZRZCuSBK07vcJI/b1nnG7OpS8A== =A8rd -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
