Hi all,

I installed ovirt engine 3.4 beta with two VMs - one opensuse 13.1
with ovirt-guest-agent from [1] and another fedora 19 with oga from
fedora. Both of them seem to work well - I can see installed
applications,
logged in user, memory usage. But in both of them, under "Network
Interfaces",
the "Guest Agent Data" tab on the right has just headers, with no 
data.


'vdsClient -s 0 getAllVmStats' on the host does show such data 
correctly

for both VMs.

Am I missing anything? Is it a bug, or I should do something to 
get there

data from the agent (through vdsm)?


I'm guessing that you're missing ethtool and/or python-ethtool? (sorry
can't find the right name right now)


Both have python-ethtool, which is a dependency of the guest agent.
And vdsm does report correctly - I am pretty certain it's a problem 
in the

engine and not on the host/VMs.

Thanks anyway,

Found https://bugzilla.redhat.com/907781, and following comment 7 there,
restarted the browser (logout/login was not enough) and now it's ok.


why would that be an ok behavior?
That behaviour is of course not ok, however it helped didi to verify the 
ubuntu guest agent.

Hello,

http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2013-November/018130.html suggests

Sorry this is a bit misleading. SLES SP3 was attempted but I still have 
to solve some issues. So SLES is currently not finished. There are 
package for OpenSUSE though.


The repository for it is here:

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:evilissimo/ovirt-guest-agent

I hope I will soon find time again to resume to work on this.


Thanks.

Why is the Windows VMs always lost their activation against Microsoft
after that I have upgrade ovirt?
Is there så big changes in hardware drivers etc that it will hit the
activation mechanism?

I think there should be a way to preserve the activation even after an
upgrade.

I think you should complain about this to the OS vendor :-)
It simply means that the `Hardware` changed and I don't think that this 
should happen, for larger setups that's a pretty big problem, if you 
suddenly have to re-activate thousands of VM's due to the upgrade.

That's a feature we are using on a daily basis in our internal

vinzenz - i don't remember anyone volunteered to test and package

The latest information I have is, that they yet don't have virtio serial 
drivers which is the very basic requirement.


(liviu - maybe you can try to tackle that?)

I can surely test the agent and I can try give it a go to package 
agent for 8.3(if no one else did this before) as I'm interested in 
pfsense on ovirt

Hi,

What is the proper way to change the graphics adapter of a VM? I know
that oVirt uses qemu and I know qemu configuration, but where in oVirt
do I change it?

I found VDSM-Hooks/qemucmdline, but that can't be the correct way?

The before_vm_start hook should be the one you'd like to handle
This will give you the ability to modify the passed XML and VDSM will 
use the returned one.


Can I change the qemu xml somewhere?

Ok my bad, I just asked a colleague and he told me that SPICE is not 
supported at the moment. Seems like that we haven't had the spice 
drivers yet for it.

Sorry for the confusion.

So it's correct that you can only have VNC or RDP.

The gap I am attempting to close at the moment is the commands which

On other systems there is polkit or usermode (aka consolehelper) however 
in the SLES case I would have to use sudo.
This is all prepared, however now I have to apply some finishing 
touches. I hope to get the package on my build.opensuse.org repository

For populating those two columns just use an init script inside the VM that

IPs and name host.test.com:

echo  '{"__name__": "network-interfaces", "interfaces": [{"name": "en1", "inet": "1.2.3.4"}, {"name": 
"en2", "inet": "9.10.11.12"}]}' > /dev/virtio-ports/com.redhat.rhevm.vdsm
echo  '{"__name__": "fqdn", "fqdn": "host.test.com"}' > 
/dev/virtio-ports/com.redhat.rhevm.vdsm

Yes, this indeed would work.

On 04/06/2014 12:19 PM, Markus Stockhausen wrote:

Hello,

from my understanding it should be possible to provide an absolute
minimalistic guest agent functionality by writing a 5-liner that fills some
basic info into the virto serial device within the guest VM. At least from
what I can read in the source at github or the docs:

https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-guest-agent/tree/master/ovirt-guest-agent
http://www.ovirt.org/images/2/20/Ovirt-guest-agent.pdf

Currently I'm interested to provide the most simple data: IP address
& FQDN for our SLES 11 guests (no guest agent yet). I tried to understand
what I must write into the serial device but there is no change in the VM
overview panel. Different combinations did not provide any success.

Maybe someone can send the syntax for the two required echo commands.

what's the gap in SLES from the OpenSUSE one that does work iiuc?

My problem is, that generating a working agent on SLES 11 is more than just a
make command. I drove into several errors (especially path specific)
Yes, this is one of the things which had to be fixed for SLES. If it 
would be only running a make command on SLES we would have already 
provided the guest agent.



  so I asked
about its state in february and the negative answer was:  "... SLES was attempted 
...".
More see here:

http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2014-February/021503.html

So I reduced my requirements and searched a way to populate the columns
IP and hostname in OVirt. This should be not more than doing an "echo ..."
into the serial port.

Hi Guys


I was wondering wether anybody has the guest agent already working on
debian guests. In m previous install I had a working setup but
currently
I only see Ubuntu packages.

When using these ubuntu packages I really run quite fast into trouble
due to the highly integrated nature of upstart in ubuntu.
Has anybody got a suggestion for a debian package?

Hi Rene,Sven, ea,


How did you get it to actually work? I got the deb from
(http://ppa.launchpad.net/zhshzhou/vdsm-ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/main/o/ovirt-guest-agent/ovirt-guest-agent_1.0.9.20140216.git5168c4-1ppa1_all.deb)
, since I'm not willing to add ubuntu sources to my apt-configuration
since that might make me run into dependency troubles later on.
They used, AFAIK, the previous one which did not depend on the 
qemu-guest-agent


After downloading and dpkg -i'ing it, I ran an apt-get -f install in
order to get the dependencies. Then I reran dpkg:


root@host:~# dpkg -i
ovirt-guest-agent_1.0.9.20140216.git5168c4-1ppa1_all.deb

There's a configfile regarding initscripts in /etc/init,  but no such
thing on the sste, (I just had a look at the contents of the ubuntu
package too).
How did you resolve this? Creating my own initscript isn't that hard but
it sucks when it comes to having a maintainable setup...

I have posted 2 patches to eliminate this requirement in future as this

For the time being this is unfortunately not so easy to solve.

Any clue how to solve it or troubleshoot the problem?

Re: [ovirt-users] ovirt-guest-agent issue on rhel5.5

Hi,

I see now that you have reported that you're using RHEL 5.5 
unfortunately I have to tell you that the absolute minimum supported 
RHEL5 is RHEL 5.6 which comes with the kernel 2.6.18-238 version which 
includes the required virtio drivers.


Any prior RHEL5 kernel version won't work.

Sorry.

Hi,

I see now that you have reported that you're using RHEL 5.5
unfortunately I have to tell you that the absolute minimum
supported RHEL5 is RHEL 5.6 which comes with the kernel 2.6.18-238
version which includes the required virtio drivers.

Any prior RHEL5 kernel version won't work.

Sorry.

I guess you misunderstand the fact that he wanted to know if he can just

And yes 5.11 > 5.5

Running Windows 2012 R2 (64 bit) on oVirt 3.5.1-1.el6 caused a rather

The guest tools are installed using the ovirt-guest-tools-3.5_5.iso.

Anyone got the same issue? What is causing this? Seems like a bug to me.
Yes it does indeed seem to be a bug, and from how this sounds like, I 
would suspect the windows ballooning driver.


Kind regards,

And when I check the rpm I see:

rpm -qa|grep ovirt
ovirt-release-el6-10.0.1-3.noarch
ovirt-guest-agent-1.0.8-1.el6.noarch

Well the latest guest agent is always available on epel for el5/6/7 
and for fedora in the fedora repos I am not sure why it's not 
available in the public ovirt repositories, however that was somehow 
always a problem with ovirt releases, but I recommend anyway to use 
epel for the ovirt guest agent due to the fact that I am releasing 
the guest agent always to epel and it will get updated from there.


Please also note that the repo location has changed. ovirt-3.5 for 
el6 is now here: http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.5/rpm/el6/


However what I don't know, is how the 3.3.3 repository got installed 
for you, I am not sure that this was done by the bare 'cloud-init', 
that might be specific to your cloud init configuration.


Well that can't be specific. I completely wipe the test environment 
every couple weeks and just provisioned a completely fresh ovirt 
3.5.2rc3 install.


Normally I don't use cloud-init as we have foreman, but I was testing 
it. The only thing I did was, create new VM and checked the 
cloud-init/sysprep checkbox. The rest oVirt did automatically.


What I think is happening is that the CentOS 6.5 image in the 
ovirt-image-repository glance provider is outdated. I used this as 
template for quick testing.


Does anyone know who maintains these images?

Sandro, do you by any chance know who does?

Hi,

I'm trying to add some users to ovirt using an AD.

This is the configuration I used for a mediawiki site, which is 
working correctly:

$wgAuth = new LdapAuthenticationPlugin();
$wgLDAPUseLocal = true;
$wgLDAPDomainNames = array( "a_domain");
$wgLDAPServerNames = array( "a_domain"=>"site.example.com 
<http://site.example.com>");

$wgLDAPEncryptionType = array( "a_domain"=>"clear");
$wgLDAPSearchStrings = array( "a_domain"=>"rom_domain\\USER-NAME");
$wgLDAPBaseDNs = array( "a_domain"=>"dc=company,dc=com");

Those are the commands I tried using:
engine-manage-domains -action=add -domain=site.example.com 
<http://site.example.com> -provider=ActiveDirectory -user=user.name 
<http://user.name> -interactive


engine-manage-domains -action=add -domain=a_domain 
-provider=ActiveDirectory -user=user.n...@company.com 
<mailto:user.n...@company.com> -interactive


engine-manage-domains -action=add -domain=a_domain 
-provider=ActiveDirectory -user=user.n...@site.example.com 
<mailto:user.n...@site.example.com> -interactive



You don't add an user this way. You add the domain. You have to pass the 
domain admin user and the domain admin password.
Then you can use the domain within the engine. e.g. search users, add 
access rights for vms etc.
Even login to the engine and assigning rights within the engine you can 
handle from the engine itself.


Regards,

And the output on all tries:
Enter password:

Error: Authentication Failed. Please verify the fully qualified domain 
name that is used for authentication is correct.. Problematic domain 
is: domain_used_in_command
Failure while applying Kerberos configuration. Details: Authentication 
Failed. Please verify the fully qualified domain name that is used for

Can someone help me with the correct parameters?

Hi,

I have been looking for the ovirt version of this command, but cannot

How do I connect my authentication server to ovirt-engine 3.1?

Yes, I have this currently in my queue current of tasks.

To simplify the the overview of the status, I have created a new page on 
the ovirt wiki:

http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Ubuntu/GuestAgent

What would be really helpful is if you know how to package for debian. I 
have never done this so far. And it would be a good start, to have the 
packaging working already

Re: [Users] SOLVED: Recovering VMs when the engine is lost

[Vinzenz Feenstra]

tlab. All the cpu and storages are still there and the
VMs are still running without problems. Is there a way, I can
attach the still existing nodes to the new oVirt engine and
recover/import the

VMs?


Alternatively, is there a way, I can import the VMs disks? I still
know how the data center and clusters were set up and the specs
for the VMs are also documented, so I'd like to re-attach the
disks, which would save me some time compared to the re-installs.



is this an iscsi or nfs data storage domain?









Kind regards
Jörn









while hacky, i wonder if worth wiki-fying.

Well it would not hurt to have it in the wiki marking it as a 'hack'
This is something what could happen because of some bug in the engine 
and you'll need to recover.
Another thing I am wondering about is, if we should not provide a 
recovery tool for something like this.
It sounds pretty much like something what can be supported for backing 
up VMs for example.

Re: [Users] guest agent

[Vinzenz Feenstra]

hi,

I am currently in the process of preparing the ovirt-guest-agent for F17 
package review, so it can be included in the distribution.

In the meantime you can use the repository as mentioned by Jason.

The qemu-guest-agent is not the same thing. The qemu guest agent comes 
with just a little of the features the ovirt-guest-agent currently 
provides, even though they are duplicating features, such as hibernation 
(S3,S4) support and things like shutdown initiated by the OS through the 
respective guest agent.


The ovirt-guest-agent is providing also additional information to the 
web admin portal, such as current IP, logged in user, memory consumption 
etc.
Also it provides the ability to implement a feature called 'Single Sign 
On' so that you can enter your user/password combination only once in 
the user portal login and once you have opened the guest os spice 
session you get automatically logged in to the guest system.

Re: [Users] node loses contact with rhev agent

[Vinzenz Feenstra]

Hi,

Great to hear that you solved the issue. As a suggestion for next time:

Execute: service vdsmd restart on the node. You'll not loose your 
running VMs and it will work afterwards.
I think I managed to pinpoint the issue, however we're still trying to 
verify the patch I have implemented as a proposal for it.


I noticed that logs won't help me that much on that issue as this is 
some condition where the connection between host and guest times out due 
to the server being busy or something. I am not 100%ly certain about the 
cause, however the solution will be to reissue connects on time outs.

Hi,

Because it is not the ovirt-guest-agent, this package is for spice which 
also has a guest agent.

We're currently not providing builds for the guest agent on windows.

Probably this should be changed ;-)
I will try to update the documentation of the guest agent over time. 
Currently my efforts rather go in the direction of making the guest

Would you be kind to find the time to help us here? Clearly,
the commit
on top of c343e1833f7b6e5428dd90f14f7807dca1baa0b4 introduces
nasty
supervdsm regressions; it has to be reverted for any
meaningful testing.
However I do not see how it can be related to the problem at hand.

Would you at least try out the ovirt-3.2 branch (where the
infamous
"zombie reaper" commit is reverted)?

Dan.

Did you configure Windows 7 also in the configuration for the VM in the

WHat do you mean with

"

"

I configured OS as Windows 7 from the beginning.
I set spice as protocol in console section, in fact from the beginning
I was able to connect via spice
I don't see any other settings related to wan optiization in
create/edit part of the VM
The WAN option should be then visible in the UI in the user portal. Not 
in the configuration of the VM.
The option for the Operating System must be set where I have shown it in 
the screenshot attached.

/etc/nologin file is cleared.

hmmm, Vinzenz - should guest agent clear that on guest startup, if guest agent 
set this at shutdown?

It's not guest agent, "shutdown" does it. It behaves the same on real hw


Is their some some reason the shutdown time is set to 30 seconds
(rounded up to 1 minute in the code)?  Are there any know issues with
setting this to 0?

Vinzenz - if we are rounding up - is this a bug?

possibly yes

Sounds pretty much like a bug to me




Is this the right way to change it to 0?
psql engine postgres -c "update vdc_options set option_value = '0' where
option_name = 'VmGracefulShutdownTimeout';"

notmally the grace period is there for other users to react befor shutdown starts. I 
wonder if it's that much relevant here.., if we assume single user most of the time 0 
(i.e. "now") should be ok

Sounds like I'm missing something. We're looking at using Windows
Server 2k8 as a workstation OS as the licensing seems to be more
reasonable for vdi.

Ah, OK. Then it would be reasonable to add server systems as supported
to driver metadata. Alon?

If the current driver works then hopefully it's just an ini file change. Can 
anyone open a bug for this please? (maybe there is one already, no idea..)
The Kernel of Win7 x64 and Win2k8 R2 x64 are supposed to be the same, 
therefore the drivers should work ;-)

I've force-installed in in 2008 R2 in the past and it worked just fine.
I'll open the bug.

David


   That's why I'm concerned about video and mouse drivers - not getting
either of those when I install spice guest tools like I do with Win7
or XP.  Please advise.

The tools installer should install virtio-serial driver and
spice-vdagent ("RHEV Spice Agent" service) for you. If the service is in
services.msc but it can not be started, you have a problem with
virtio-serial driver.

David

 You can force-install qxl for win 7 64b if you wish to do so,

 but the
 question is - why do you need graphic driver on server
 windows? The
 spipce-vdagent should be all you need b/c it will give you
 local mouse.

What could be wrong?



What does the agent's log say (/var/log/ovirt-guest-agent.log)?

Usually, if everything is running as it should, the problem is
that the Linux machine is not configure to work with the same

Do I have other ways to make it run as a service?

Hi,

It logged you out because of some command still in the VirtIO channel.
You should be ok after you logged back in again.

However without having some more details like if the service was still 
running afterwards I can't tell you why you did not get the IP reported 
in the engine.
Please check in the event viewer (start eventvwr.msc) if there were any 
errors in the event log reported.
It's quite possible that it did not find the ini file when started as 
service.


I can't tell for sure without more information. Please check if you have 
any log files, eventlog entries or anything like that.

Thanks.

Hi Joop,

just for clarification:
Is there any reason why agent rpms can't be found / aren't occupied in default ovirt 
repo (<-> rhev repo)?

The rpm for Fedora is in the default repo,

 
http://resources.ovirt.org/releases/3.2/rpm/Fedora/18/noarch/ovirt-guest-agent-common-1.0.6-5.fc18.noarch.rpm

However, I have no idea why its EL6 counterpart is missing from

 http://resources.ovirt.org/releases/3.2/rpm/EL/6/noarch
We don't have a EL6 version due to the fact that the guest agent needs 
in its current 3.2 shape the GDM sources available for building the SSO 
(single sign on) modules. In Fedora 17 and 18 this was no problem so far 
due to the fact that there were extra devel libraries for GDM plugins.


The master branch of the ovirt-guest-agent has already the possibility 
to disable the SSO module for building. This is needed for a few other 
linux targets. However this will be available with ovirt 3.3.

Sorry for the inconvenience.



Maybe Vinzenz or Mike can help.

Vinzenz - we should have a wiki on this if we don't already have one.
We do have a description in the repository for Fedora and Windows

There has been some work done for supporting other distribution targets

Ok, thanks. from where can I start?

On Fedora 17+ you can install the guest agent by 'yum install 
ovirt-guest-agent-common'


On other OS you can start by checking out the git repository on the OS 
you'd like to build it on.


`git clone http://gerrit.ovirt.org/p/ovirt-guest-agent.git`

On Windows you should follow these instructions: 
http://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=ovirt-guest-agent.git;a=blob;f=ovirt-guest-agent/README-windows.txt;h=HEAD


On Linux you go into the repository
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --without-sso
And then as root
# make install

However not all files might yet be put into the right places on all 
systems, and for Debian/Ubuntu systems we don't have any daemon or 
upstart scripts, so far we only support systemd in the repository so 
that would have to be done manually.

No not really, it is for the guest operating system. For some features,

[Users] Fwd: oVirt Users Guest Usage Survey

[Vinzenz Feenstra]

Hi,

I would like to ask everyone to please take the time to answer the
following survey: http://goo.gl/ADYiT

We'd like to see what's the common usage of the oVirt environment in the
community :-)

This is mainly due to the direction we're going to take with the oVirt
guest agent, so we can focus on supported OS and see what features are
required to be functional on those to be most useful to the community.

Thanks a lot :-)

I haven't seen any fix on this. I would be more than interested to know the fix 
if any.
I have posted a change in this regard to the ovirt engine frontend to 
send the login request always. This change was merged to the master 
branch of ovirt engine. (for ovirt 3.5)
Additionally I made a second change to vdsm that it decides when to 
forward the login request when the guest agent is responsive. This 
change is currently still pending.


I am sorry that I did not respond to you mail. I was rather immediately 
taking an action to having this addressed as this was the second time 
somebody mentions this limitation.


Unfortunately there's no real quick fix at the moment where I am certain 
that it works. In theory it should be enough to have an uninstall 
application entry in the registry for the RHEV Agent, however this is 
not a good thing and therefore I went with a different solution to avoid 
such kind of problems in future.





Thanks in advance,
Felipe

I have tried with "ovirt-guest-agent" and "Ovirt guest agent" Names for the

on any case LogonVDScommand appears.




There is other option to make it work now?

I would first of all try to install fedora 19 in a virtual machine and

so you can figure out what's the minimum requirements for the

With the switch to sudo. So basically it'd be a good idea to patch them.
As soon we have have the linked patch verified I can go and merge it and

here is a link to the documentation which should explain what I mean:

https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.3/html/Administration_Guide/Virtual_Machine_Networks_and_Optional_Networks.html

Are you refering to the paragraph: "When a required network becomes
non-operational, the virtual machines running on the network are fenced
and migrated to another host. This is beneficial if you have machines
running mission critical workloads."?

yes

Isn't that section referring to HA VMs?



this is about a single host in a cluster - ovirt can't even fence
single hosts in a single cluster yet, see my other bug report for this:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1054778

I could provide logs if they are really necessary, but I doubt they are.
This is documented behaviour, but it is poorly designed, as described
in the BZ.

Apparently, I am not familiar enough with Engine's fencing logic; logs
may help me understand the issue, for me they are necessary is this
case. In particular, I'd like to see with my own eyes whether the VMs
where explicitly destroyed by Engine. Migrating VMs to an operational
destination makes a lot of sense. Destroying a running VM in attempt
to recuperate of a host networking issue is extraordinary (and as such,
requires exraordinary evidence).

I might be able to attach some logs later.

Hello Everyone,

I am having difficulties getting the oVirt Windows Guest Agent to work 
with Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. We are currently running oVirt 3.4.2. 
I have used the instructions from 
http://www.ovirt.org/OVirt_Guest_Agent_For_Windows. As a side note I 
do have it working on Windows Server 2012 R2.


  * I have installed the Virtio serial drivers from the
virtio-win-0.1-81.iso
  * For troubleshooting purposes I later tried the drivers from the
virtio-win-0.1-74.iso
  * Installed python 2.7.3, Python for Windows extensions, py2exe
  * Compiled and copied the two exe files to C:\Program Files\Guest
Agents\oVirt Guest Agent\
  * The two files sha1 hash is:
OVirtGuestService.exe
A5F7FD0A15076437D174D3EF33FE95E42059FF0F

w9xpopen.exe
B4D4623E5522390AEF6F113B5BB6FA8F1CBDC66C

  * Removed all except the top three # symbols from the
ovirt-guest-agent.ini file and then copied it to the directory
stated above
  * The sha1 hash for this file is:
ovirt-guest-agent.ini
3ED609F101D44F52A68969DAD8D6F5F294FA733A

  * Installed the service. It shows up in services.msc.
  * Configure the service to auto start.
  * Try to start the service. This is where the problem exist. When I
try to start the service I get an error. The error code in Event
Viewer within Windows is Event 10.

Under the general tab is states "The description for Event ID 10 from 
source OVirtGuestService cannot be found. Either the component that 
raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the 
installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on 
the local computer."


I have tried to remove the service and re-install with no luck. Any 
suggestions? Thanks!


Can you please check that the default.ini and default-logger.ini files 
are also in that folder? They can be found in the 
$(project_root)/configurations folder.

These files are now required if you build it from the master branch.

Once you have those two files in the target location, please try to 
start the service again.


I am not sure what the Event ID 10 means, it's maybe just that the 
process stopped unexpectedly.
Please also be sure that run OvirtGuestService.exe -install from the 
location where you keep the binary, otherwise the path to the service 
executable will be the wrong location.

Will somebody be updating the wiki page?

I'm still mystified by something though. I can't get copy/paste to 
work in/out of my guest console, and console performance (terminal 
scrolling) seems very sluggish.


According to this page:
http://www.ovirt.org/Understanding_Guest_Agents_and_Other_Tools#Linux_Guests 



I need the "Spice Agent". The table says Spice drivers should be 
pre-installed, if I understand it properly [1]. Is that sufficient, or 
is there an agent executable I must install as well [2]? My kernel is 
3.13.0-30.
Yes you'll need the 'spice-vdagent' to be running for copy and pasting 
and all those features.


Thanks,
Bob

[1] Row 2 and row 3 use different terminology ("Built in" vs "Yes"). 
It's not clear if they mean the same thing. If they do, consistent 
terminology would clarify. If they don't, some extra description or 
links seem necessary to clarify.
Well it's about the availability. Yes means, it is available and Built 
in means that it is already built-in and does not need any extra 
installation.




[2] Similar to [1] there's the Spice Driver/Agent terminology 
confusion. If they mean the same thing we should use consistent terms. 
If they are separate, the agent seems to need a 4th row in the table 
showing where/how to get it.

Looking at the table, I think I spotted something else:

[ovirt-users] ovirt 3.5 TestDay Results

[Vinzenz Feenstra]

Hi,

I had to test *Bug 1080987* 
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1080987> -OVIRT35 - [RFE] 
Support ethtool_opts functionality within oVirt


Installation of the engine went very smooth without a single issue, even 
adding a previously used host through the host deploy went smoothly and 
upgraded VDSM without any issues.

The feature worked as expected without any problems.

All in all I have to say that this time I had the best beta experience 
since I am working with oVirt.


Good Job guys! :-)

Re: [ovirt-users] Problem installing Ubuntu Guest Agent

Thanks for fixing, I was just about to fix it myself, though.

Another question, in centos 6.5 I have spice-vdagent too, available
from standard updates repo, the version is:
Name: spice-vdagent
Arch: x86_64
Version : 0.14.0
Release : 3.el6_5

is this not new enough? because it is also not listed (this should apply
to rhel as well).
Well I wasn't sure. I was searching for SuSE Linux Enterprise first and 
couldn't find anything. And as you say in RHEL/CentOS it should be 
actually available in the standard repos (both of it) At least that's 
what I assume. But I am not sure.


You can update it, and if someone complains we can fix it again :-P

Looking at the table, I think I spotted something else:

There is no indication that there is an ovirt-guest-agent for
rhel/centos, which is not true, or am I misreading the table?

Indeed this is not true anymore, but that's a pretty recent change and
we probably missed to update the table for this.

Re: [ovirt-users] 64 bits oVirtGuestAgent.exe at 99% CPU

The most interesting information for me really would be what version of 
Windows you're using exactly.
I have never seen the guest agent running on that high CPU so I would 
need some more information.


It'd be great if you could enable debug logging and restart the service 
(or VM) and get me the logs after it is spiking the CPU so much.


Thanks.

Hello everybody,

This is my very first email here. I've just compiled both 32 and 64

32 bits works flawlessly, I can login, logout and lock screen at the 
moment, but the 64 bits version cannot login (but can lock screen and 
logout) and the worse of all, puts the VM CPU at 99%, making it useless.


Anyone has experieced this? Or give me some guidance to investigate?

Thank you!

Could you please try to use the ovirt windows guest tools iso to install

I am somehow surprised about the issue you're seeing.

Notice how the 'nr=1' seems to be missing from yours, not sure though 
that this is the reason but might be.


was when the CPU fired to 100% (1CPU) or 50% (2CPUs) Perhaps we put 
something wrong on that...


If you set those parameters, you vCPU is not fired to 50% or 100%?

I actually think that

The point is that there's an exception thrown during recovery which will 
cause the state of the VM to be in a very unusable state.

Known indications so far:
- It's shown as 'Paused' in the UI while the VM effectively is 'UP'
- The guest agent communication channels are not initialized due to the 
earlier bail out caused by the exception

   - Consequence visible in UI:
   - You can't soft shutdown the vm
   - Causes most likely exceptions when trying to access methods from 
the guest agent during shutdown of the VM, live migration might fail

   - and other issues

Re: [ovirt-users] Discovering oVirt/RHEV Engine from a VM guest

[Vinzenz Feenstra]

On 09/25/2014 06:41 AM, Shawn Starr wrote:

Hello everyone,

I wonder if you can tell me how I can do this. I'm creating a VM image that
needs to discover it's hostname, IP address information so I can configure
/etc/sysconfig/network, /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-[interface] and
other things.

That sounds to me like a use case for cloud-init.


If I know the oVirt/RHEV engine to connect to, I can get this information
successfully.

However, when creating a dummy 'gold' VM image and having oVirt clone it. I
have no 'key' to tell me what engine to connect to, other than trying them all
and hoping for best.

I've written some code with the oVirt SDK that needs to know the URL:

from ovirtsdk.api import API
import platform
import yaml
import sys

api =  API(url="https://HOW_TO_DISCOVER_THIS/api";,
   username="USER@internal",
   password="PASSWORD",
   insecure=True)

...

Is there a way to know the engine to connect to when VM has booted up?

I tried poking around ovirt/rhev-agent and noticed this:

in /usr/share/rhev-agent/vdsAgentLogic.py:
 self.vio.write('host-name', { 'name' : self.dr.getMachineName() })
This is a pretty ancient version of the guest agent. Nevertheless the 
machine name is retrieved from the system, there's no magic happening by 
talking to the engine or anything like that. If the system does not have 
a configured FQDN or hostname it will just simply get what the system 
has set. That might be even 'localhost@localdomain'


It *looks* like I could get the host name from what oVirt has configured w/o
knowing the engine to connect to? But I cannot open /dev/virtio-
ports/com.redhat.rhevm.vdsm (since rhev-agentd) has it opened 'too many files
open' error.

When using OpenNebula in past, they mounted a ISO CD image that contained the
VM's metadata you could read in as configuration and having also used AWS EC2
You can connect to localhost to the VM itself to get metadata to get this sort
of information.

That's what cloudinit is doing. :-)
From my knowledge however there is no metadata available to be received 
within the guest without using cloudinit.


I really appreciate any help, if there's an easy way.

Thanks,
Shawn.

[ovirt-users] ovirt-3.5 ovirt-guest-agent linux builds are now available

[Vinzenz Feenstra]

Hi,

I have just released the ovirt-guest-agent ovirt-3.5 builds with version 
1.0.10.2


The usual guest agent OBS repositories on have been updated for
- Debian 7
- Ubuntu 12.04, 13.10, 14.04
- openSuSE 12.3, 13.1
- SuSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP3

Builds for the guest agent on the fedora environment have been posted as 
updates and are currently available in the testing repositories for:

- Fedora 19
- Fedora 20
- Fedora 21
- EPEL6 (el6)
- EPEL5 (el5)
- EPEL7 (el7)

It would be great if the users of the ovirt-guest-agent on Linux guests 
could test the guest agent.


Thanks.

All ok.


I forgot to mention oVirt version: Infra is with 3.5 rc2 on CentOS 6.5 
(one system for engine and one for vdsm host).

I think correct link is what I referred in my first answer and that I 
used:

http://www.ovirt.org/Feature/GuestAgentUbuntu

In that page we have the timestamp and tested version of
*Name*: oVirt Guest Agent on Ubuntu
*Modules*: ovirt-guest-agent
*Target version*: 3.4.1
*Status*: Done
*Last updated*: 2014-08-05 by Vfeenstr

That is valid also for 3.5rc3 and ubuntu 14.04

I edited the page
http://www.ovirt.org/Understanding_Guest_Agents_and_Other_Tools#Linux_Guests

pointing to my referred page.
Let me know if ok for all

This looks a little bit like an APT repository (it has Packages and 
Release) but I don't see the structure I expect (e.g. a dists directory). 
This is just the way how OBS is doing this, so I have no influence on 
the 'dists' directory in this case the dist name is just a slash ('/')
What is the appropriate APT line e.g. for sources.list? What is the 
uri, suite, and component? I'm able to fetch the .deb and install it 
manually (and then fix the missing dependencies) but a properly 
configured APT repository would make this more seamless.
How to add it to the sources.list is shown here: 
http://www.ovirt.org/Feature/GuestAgentUbuntu#Installation
The URL to use can be found here: 
http://www.ovirt.org/Feature/GuestAgentUbuntu#Repository

I don't see the guest agents running on your screenshots.

service --status-all should show the guest agent as well, however on 
that particular machine you made the screenshot of, it's not even 
showing as installed.


The ACPI reboot should work though, even without the guest agent but not 
sure why it seems not to work for you.

I don't see the guest agents running on your screenshots.

service --status-all should show the guest agent as well, however on 
that particular machine you made the screenshot of, it's not even 
showing as installed.


The ACPI reboot should work though, even without the guest agent but 
not sure why it seems not to work for you.
Oh I just remember there was a bug related to the shutdown script 
rights, the latest version of the guest agent in the repositories 
contains a fix for that.


It might be that you're affected to the sudoers.d file bug which we did 
recently fix.

Hi Vinzenz,

The guest agent already installed and running in the backend...screen

Strange that it is now shown in the 'service --status-all' output.


For the bug...please provide me more information on itand how to 
patch it to work...

Run as root: apt-get update && apt-get upgrade ovirt-guest-agent
That should install ovirt-guest-agent in version 1.0.10.2 that should 
fix the issue

The complete source code is here:

This is the relevant code for opening the channel. The name of the target it

Well it will increase the time to 3 minutes and takes effect after restarting 
vdsm and supervdsm - If that is enough that might depend on your setup.

Well you can look how we do it in the ovirt-guest-agent. But we’re not 
reopening the unix domain socket - We’re basically on read failure just 
rescheduling the read - That causes no problems after migrations - it just 
continues 

Our python code for that is here: 
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-guest-agent/blob/master/ovirt-guest-agent/VirtIoChannel.py

Well you could use the Python SDK http://www.ovirt.org/Python-sdk

Or have the ovirt guest agent running - Which handles the shutdowns and reboots 
too
