[ovirt-users] Setting up an ovirt environment
Hello, I have a question. I'm been playing around with ovirt an I'm loving it. Now I would like to set up a new environment with two or three nodes with a hosted engine, reliable and fast storage and flexible network with clearly separated storage, ovirt-management and multiple VM subnets. I would like to here what you guy' s would buy and set up. Kind regards. ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

In other words: no one can give you a good advice on this topic with the information you provided. How many compute nodes (hosts) do you plan? What is your budget? how many vms will you host? how many vm subnets? vlans? which storage technology do you need? iscsi? fibre channel? which technologies do you know(nfs, gluster)? what are your vm workloads? databases, webservers..? if you already have a test setup you should know how much performance you need and I guess you already have some servers with different stuff running. In general: buy hardware you are familiar with and which does the job for you. for reliable servers you could go with dell, hp, ibm or the usual other brandings. but it really depends on your infrastructure and your ecosystem. So: your mileage may vary.

[ovirt-users] How to fix wrong speed of the Infiniband Interfaces?
Hi, I am using ovirt 3.4.4-1. On the hosts I have 1Gbit(eth),10Gbit(eth) and 40Gbit(QDRInfiniband) interfaces. ib interface is used for the VM migration and iscsi disks. If I go to the network interfaces I can see right speed for eth cards. Unfortunately the IB interface speed is detected as 0b/s. This causes very hi load information on vm migrate face. Which is not true. IB can up to 2GB/s but already on 200MB/s load the hosts interfaces are overloaded. Where can I put the correct speed of IB interface?

[ovirt-users] VSDM Hosts Swapspace
Hi All, As I'm not a big fan of swapping, as most people don't I think, I wonder why the following calculation is made: The default overcommit ratio is 0.5. The recommended size of the swap partition can be determined by: Multiplying the amount of system RAM by the expected overcommit ratio, and adding 2 GB of swap space for systems with 4 GB of RAM or less, or 4 GB of swap space for systems with between 4 GB and 16 GB of RAM, or 8 GB of swap space for systems with between 16 GB and 64 GB of RAM, or 16 GB of swap space for systems with between 64 GB and 256 GB of RAM. Example recommended SWAP calculation for a machine with 16 GB of RAM: (16 GB x 0.5) + 8 GB = 16 GB Would VM's make the Host swap that fast when the mem is overcommitted ? I have tested this and don't see much more than 1,5GB of swap usage. I hope someone can tell me how they see/use this.

Hi Ryan, 1.) The Nagios integration page seems to be back up. 2.) For monitoring of events available in oVirt-engine's audit log, It is possible to register for both email and snmp trap notifications[1]. A portion of these events are related to managed resources. Trap notifications allow integration with monitoring systems. See: [1], [2] and [3].

Some work with snmptt can achieve the same result.

Re: [ovirt-users] [ANN] oVirt 3.5 GA Releases
If you are upgrading from a previous version, you should have the ovirt-release34 package already installed on your system. You can then install ovirt-release35.rpm as in a clean install side-by-side. I followed this, but I'm certain what it means.

Re: [ovirt-users] Thinking loud about VM's serial console access
Please read [1]. I am unsure about concurrent access, this should be done using ssh bridge and now low level solution.

I'd like to make some comments, hopefully it would help to think about how we would access VM's serial consoles in oVirt. 1. encrypted access (ssh preferable) is a must 2. not to type any automatically generated password to access serial console should be possible (like for spice) i can imagine a centralized console server could be used to manage all serial console accesses. usually such console servers are access via ssh and then a connection is spawned and sysadmin's ssh session is connected to remote serial console without any action 3. not to see a interactive menu should be possible there can be serial console output parser/monitor persistently running to catch kernel outputs and alerts in console. if kernel crashes, the output is on console and thus a monitoring can catch it 4. access to VM's serial console should not require to know where a VM is running (thus to know host fqdn/IP) this is obvious, a sysadmin wants to just get serial console without manual kung-fu 5. multi-user access to one VM's serial console in some paranoid environment there must be two people working together, each controlling other. whatever. multi-user concurrency should be possible, there can be passive serial console output parser/monitor and sysadmin's interactive session Hopefully the above will contribute to implementation design. All above is possible with open source tools while using real hw serial consoles, thus it would be expected that implementation for VM's serial console would work similarly. FYI I created RFE for qemu for TLS mode for chardev socket https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1154115, so there could be a way not to use ssh to host as this has been not preferred by alonbl@ for other functionality in the past :) j. ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Since we can extend the storage domain, I was thinking of multiples of 200G. Any reason not to do it this way? From the mailing list: https://www.mail-archive.com/users@ovirt.org/msg13638.html please note: - you can extend a *storage domain* by adding an extra LUN to it from ovirt-engine. 3.

Rationale for this approach is its a cloud server and wish to use a private network to reach the install VMs on that node.
