Thought I was smooth sailing, guess not.

When I did this clone would I need to reset the Sanlock UUIDs? Im
getting a bunch of weird errors when going to activate a gluster
storage domain to the datacenter.

 VM live migration works, live _disk_ migration does not.

 Only way to get that is with RHEL really then?

 No, as I earlier pointed out, there is a place you can get the packages you
 need for CentOS:
 http://jenkins.ovirt.org/view/All/job/qemu-kvm-rhev_create-rpms_el6/lastStableBuild/

 You'll have to download- and force install them over the already installed
 versions of those packages on all Hosts and then it'll work.

 Though, next time there are updates, yum will update from the standard repos
 and it just stops working again until you repeat the procedure.

 /K


 Just add exclude=qemu-kvm* in /etc/yum.conf so yum will leave them allone

 If I use Fedora will everything work? I had numerous issues, IIRC I
 could not even get the ovirtmgmt switch to install and a few other
 things. What version of Fedora do you recommend then? Ill do another
 install and give that a whirl again.

My current setup is on F20, with a hosted engine running on CentOS 6.5.

I mainly use Fedora because nested kvm works better there.

My storage is gluster, hosted on the F20 machines. I'm seeing some
SELinux issues right now, so I'm in permissive mode until I can 
file bugs for them.

Jason

  Well, going with Fedora would at least get you the snapshots working, if I
  remember correctly, but that's not something you run in production. As you
  said, major issues.
 
  For CentOS, you need special versions of certain packages, since RedHat
  wants you to pay for RHEV, they have chosen to cripple the standard
  packages so those features won't work:

While I have never tested or used this feature myself, I'm pretty
sure this is not normal behaviour, this shouldn't take that long
on an idle vm, unless something else puts your hardware under heavy
load?

Is normal behavior a outage when a snapshot occurs? Ive got the rhev
builds installed but when I take a snap im getting well over two
minutes of downtime, on a VM with zero usage. The VM goes into pause
state then, I guess the snapshot is a copy of the entire VM? I have
not got a second host up with those rhev build to see the behavior

That behavior is expected, engine pauses the VM during snapshot to ensure 
consistency. Not as sure about the timeframe though; two mins for a idle VM? 
When I snap, it's a matter if seconds, but that might be your Gluster spooking. 
We use a traditional NFS server. Why not set that up and benchmark the 
difference?

 Haha, yeah never have been a Fedora fan, and nothing has changed. Is
 the only big feature im missing out on is snapshots? From what I can
 tell, and in my testing, everything else seems to work. Was deploying
 GlusterFS but without the live migration to another host that is
 somewhat defeated.

 VM live migration works, live _disk_ migration does not.

 Only way to get that is with RHEL really then?

 No, as I earlier pointed out, there is a place you can get the packages you
 need for CentOS:
 http://jenkins.ovirt.org/view/All/job/qemu-kvm-rhev_create-rpms_el6/lastStableBuild/

 You'll have to download- and force install them over the already installed
 versions of those packages on all Hosts and then it'll work.

 Though, next time there are updates, yum will update from the standard repos
 and it just stops working again until you repeat the procedure.

  If I use Fedora will everything work? I had numerous issues, IIRC I
  could not even get the ovirtmgmt switch to install and a few other
  things. What version of Fedora do you recommend then?
 
  None:) We switched long ago to CentOS and have never looked back, even
  with
  these issues. Not worth the headache that is Fedora.

  Ill do another
  install and give that a whirl again.
 
  Thanks!

   Hi,
  
   Ive seeing conflicting info with what version of qemu rpms are
   needed
   to do live migration under CentOS. It appears the stock ones will
   not
   work and the RHEV ones are required. All the mailing list post I see
   are from 3-4 months ago, so not sure.
  
   Im getting VDSGenericException: VDSErrorException: Failed to
   SnapshotVDS, error = Snapshot failed, code = 48 (Failed with error
   SNAPSHOT_FAILED and code 48)
  
   I also saw this thread:
   http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.centos.general/138593
  
   Ive been having issues getting those to install, but before I spent
   to
   much more time I wanted to really see if I was on the right track.
  
   Is there a better OS choice? I first started trying with Fedora 19
   and
   20 and has major issues, went to CentOS 6.5 and this is the first
   and
   only issue so far ive ran into.
  
   Thanks!

   Well, going with Fedora would at least get you the snapshots working,
   if
   I remember correctly, but that's not something you run in production.
   As you
   said, major issues.
  
   For CentOS, you need special versions of certain packages, since
   RedHat wants you to pay for RHEV, they have chosen to cripple the
   standard
   packages so those features won't work:
   http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/devel/2014-June/007735.html
  
   And here you can find the packages you need:
