Re: AW: Manual fence KVM Host
Hello Murilo, Complementing Swen's answer, if your host is still up and you can manage it, then you could also put your host in maintenance mode in ACS. This process will evacuate (migrate to another host) every VM from the host (not only the ones that have HA enabled). Is this your situation? If not, could you provide more details about your configurations and the environment state? Depending on what you have in your setup, the HA might not work as expected. For VMware and XenServer, the process is expected to happen at the hypervisor level. For KVM, ACS does not support HA; what ACS supports is failover (it is named HA in ACS though) and this process will work only when certain criteria are met. Furthermore, we have two ways to implement the failover for ACS + KVM: the VM's failover and the host's failover. In both cases, when identified that a host crashed or a VM suddenly stopped working, ACS will start the VM in another host. In ACS + KVM, to work with VM's failover, it is necessary at least one NFS primary storage; the KVM Agent of every host writes the heartbeat in it. The VM's failover is triggered only if the VM's compute offering has the property "Offer HA" enabled OR the global setting "force.ha" is enabled. VRs have failover triggered independently of the offering of the global setting. In this approach, ACS will check the VM state periodically (sending commands to the KVM Agent) and it will trigger the failover if the VM meets the previously mentioned criteria AND the determined limit (defined by the global settings "ping.interval" and "ping.timeout") has been elapsed. Bear in mind that, if you lose your host, ACS will trigger the failover; however, if you gracefully shutdown the KVM Agent or the host, the Agent will send a disconnect command to the Management Server and ACS will not check the VM state anymore for that host. Therefore, if you lose your host while the service is down, the failover will not be triggered. Also, if a host loses access to the NFS primary storage used for heartbeat and the VM uses some other primary storage, ACS might trigger the failover too. As we do not have a STONITH/fencing in this scenario, it is possible for the VM to still be running in the host and ACS to try to start it in another host. In ACS + KVM, to work with the host's failover, it is necessary to configure the host's OOBM (of each host desired to trigger the failover) in ACS. In this approach, ACS monitors the Agent's state and triggers the failover in case it cannot establish the connection again. In this scenario, ACS will shut down the host via OOBM and will start the VMs in another host; therefore, it is not dependent on an NFS primary storage. This behavior is driven by the "kvm.ha.*" global settings. Furthermore, one has to be aware that stopping the Agent might trigger the failover; therefore, it is recommended to disable the failover feature while doing operations in the host (like upgrading the packages or some other maintenance processes).

Re: CPU compatibility
For processors of the same family but of different generations, we can add them all to the same cluster, leveling the instructions to the lowest common denominator (limiting the instructions to the older generation). This way, every node on the cluster has the same set of instructions.

April 2024 00:14 To: users@cloudstack.apache.org Subject: Re: CPU compatibility Hello Steve, For CloudStack, it does not matter if you have hosts with different processors; however, this is a recommendation regarding how virtualization systems work; therefore, this discussion happens aside from CloudStack. When we are dealing with different processors, we are dealing with different flags, instructions, clocks, and so on. For processors of the same family, but of different generations, we can level the instructions to the lowest common denominator (limit the instructions to the older generation); however, it starts to get tricky when we are dealing with different families. For instance, if you deploy a guest VM in a host with Xeon Silver and try to migrate it to a Xeon Gold, the OS of your guest, which already knows the Xeon Silver instructions, might not adapt to the instructions of the new host (Xeon Gold). Therefore, in these cases, you will face problems in the guest VM. If you are aware of the differences between the processors and that mixing different types can cause problems, then you can create a cluster mixing them; however, it is not recommended. For KVM, the parameter is defined in ACS; on the other hand, for XenServer and VMware this kind of setup is done in the cluster in XenServer or vCenter. It is also important to bear in mind that, even though you level the instruction sets between the different processors in the host operating system, you might still suffer some issues due to clock differences when you migrate a VM from a faster CPU to a slower CPU and vice versa.

Can you define the migration peer for hosts? For example having them all one cluster but define somehow that migration should be done between hosts of same CPU? BR -Original Message- From: Guto Veronezi Sent: Mittwoch, 10. April 2024 00:14 To: users@cloudstack.apache.org Subject: Re: CPU compatibility Hello Steve, For CloudStack, it does not matter if you have hosts with different processors; however, this is a recommendation regarding how virtualization systems work; therefore, this discussion happens aside from CloudStack. When we are dealing with different processors, we are dealing with different flags, instructions, clocks, and so on. For processors of the same family, but of different generations, we can level the instructions to the lowest common denominator (limit the instructions to the older generation); however, it starts to get tricky when we are dealing with different families. For instance, if you deploy a guest VM in a host with Xeon Silver and try to migrate it to a Xeon Gold, the OS of your guest, which already knows the Xeon Silver instructions, might not adapt to the instructions of the new host (Xeon Gold). Therefore, in these cases, you will face problems in the guest VM. If you are aware of the differences between the processors and that mixing different types can cause problems, then you can create a cluster mixing them; however, it is not recommended. For KVM, the parameter is defined in ACS; on the other hand, for XenServer and VMware this kind of setup is done in the cluster in XenServer or vCenter. It is also important to bear in mind that, even though you level the instruction sets between the different processors in the host operating system, you might still suffer some issues due to clock differences when you migrate a VM from a faster CPU to a slower CPU and vice versa.

Re: Repositories
Hi Rohit, Right, my question was mostly because of https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/8727. Still trying to find as to why mine looks different, I’ve use the download.cloudstack ones for it, I know it’s not a caching issue since even on a brand-new Ubuntu desktop vm it shows the same for me. I haven’t tried building my own debs from source to see what I would see there, but I doubt it would look that different. -- Jimmy Van: Rohit Yadav Datum: woensdag, 10 april 2024 om 15:28 Aan: users@cloudstack.apache.org Onderwerp: Re: Repositories Hi Jimmy, They both are largely hosting the same upstream packages with some differences.
