 This is just normal tasks and we do this all the time.

Just bump this thread to know if this is a common issue or if there is
some configuration we must do.

I think this is a common issue and one of the reasons why SPM goes away
in 3.6 [1].

Please see the thread from some time ago, I put it in the end.
Markus Stockhausen summarizes my experiences quite well:

Lessons learned so far for us:

- run SPM on the smallest host (with the fewest running VMs)
to  mit mitigate side effects of high CPU/disk utilization.

- Clear page cache if nodes run out of free memory.

Betreff: [ovirt-users] Disk migration eats all CPU, vms running in SPM 
become unresponsive

Hello:

I am experiencing some troubles with ovirt nodes:

When a node is selected as SPM and I move a disk between storage
domains, it seems that migration process eats all CPU and some VMs
(running on the SPM) hang, others lose network connectivity. The events
tab at Ovirt Engine reports the CPU exceeding the defined threshold and
then reports that VMs in such host (SPM) are not responding.

How can I debug this? Why do the VMs become unresponsive or lost network
connectivity when the host CPU goes too high?

I have attached a screenshot of the ovirt-engine events, and the
relevant engine.log


My setup:

oVirt Engine Version:
 3.4.0-1.el6 (Centos 6.5)
Nodes:
 Centos 6.5
 vdsm-4.14.6-0.el6
 libvirt-0.10.2-29.el6_5.9
 KVM: 0.12.1.2 - 2.415.el6_5.10 (jenkins build)

Hi, 

just a quick guess:

I would start the analysis by looking if SPM is swapping during the 
disk move. We had issues during snapshot deletion. More details at 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1116558

If you encounter BSODs for windows VMs during that operation have 
a look at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1110305

Lessons learned so far for us:

- run SPM on the smallest host (with the fewest running VMs)
to  mit mitigate side effects of high CPU/disk utilization.

- Clear page cache if nodes run out of free memory.

[ovirt-users] delete snapshots or create a template make a huge impact on VMs on SPM-node

2014-09-25 Thread Ricky Schneberger

Hi,

When we do some tasks in ovirt as delete an snapshot or clone a machine
or just want to make a machine template the impact on VMs residing on
the SPM node is huge. Is there a way to prevent this? This is just
normal tasks and we do this all the time.
