Hi, if you got any CentOS version 6.5 it will not work as you need at least cloud-init version 0.7.2 as this version supports the used way of submitting the meta-data and user data files to the vm (via cd rom payload). so in short: you need at least centos 6.5 and cloud-init 0.7.2. inside the vm if you can't install this versions for some reason you can still write your own custom script to parse the data.

Re: [ovirt-users] Is this kind of VM replication possible using oVirt Schedular
hi Gilad/Martin, Please let me know if you need any further clarifications from my side. Thanks Kausik On Fri, Jun 27, 2014 at 3:18 PM, kausik pal kausikpa...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Gilad/Martin, Thanks for the reply. Let me explain the scenario in details:- Each Host would have local filesystems and can be integrated with oVirt as POSIX filesystems storage. Assume each server can run maximum 6 VMs simultaneously(due to memory/CPU constraints) and we have configured 5 hosts (Node1, Node2Node5). In the beginning the 5 hosts are being configured in the oVirt engine and there is no VM. Now I create the first VM named VM1 and place it in Node1, from this point oVirt Schedular would decide which other host it would put the replica on. This replica VM1 will be in passive state in another host (Node 2 as per diagram). The same procedure would apply on the other created VMs as well. The role of the oVirt scheduler would be to optimize the placement of VMs in such a way that we can maximize the number of VMs availability in case of host(s) failure. Also it should replicate the delta updates to corresponding passive VMs. As per the scenario in a perfect condition 4 VMs are running in each host providing scope for running 2 extra VMs(maximum 6)in case of other host failures.The underlying local storage have kept 4 extra VMs (QCOW2 disks and config files) from different hosts in addition to the 4 VM disk files for the running VMs. Due to some reason Node2 and Node4 have failed, now the replicated passive VMs for the failed nodes will be started on the remaining nodes. In this case most of the VMs were able to start in different node except VM7 and VM14 as those VMs don't have replicas available in the other running nodes. The maximum availability of the VMs can be calculated using the following formula:- *Total No. of VMs running after node failure = ((Total No. of Nodes) - (No. of failed Nodes)) * (Max. No. of VMs that can run per Node)* The HA VM reservation is an excellent feature no doubt, but I think its only applicable if you have a shared storage underlying(NFS,SAN,Gluster etc..).(Correct me if I'm wrong) And yes GlusterFS does have distributed replicated feature which can replicate VM data in multiple bricks, but in GlusterFS you have to map the replicated bricks during creation and the data can only be replicated between the two (or multiple based on your replication numbers) bricks only. The advantage of this feature would be that you can add standalone nodes(odd/even numbers) in oVirt ecosystem and schedular can place VMs in such a balanced and optimized mode so that maximum number of VMs remain available after N nodes failure from M number of nodes(where MN) Please put your valuable thoughts regarding the same. Request you to let me know if you need any further clarifications from my side.

In case of failure we migrate highly available VMs to other hosts, but note that there could be a connectivity problem between engine an node, and node can still communicate with the storage, so to avoid that (split brain) you need to have PM configured for that node, or manually confirm that the host has rebooted. We even added a feature lately (3.4's HA reservation [1]) that indicates whether your HA VMs have enough resources in cluster in case of a node failure. Thanks, Gilad.

My question is whether this kind of VM replication as shown in the attached diagram is possible utilizing oVirt schedular. The benefits of this kind of replication would be following :- 1. Any number of Hosts/Nodes can participate (Odd/Even) in the infrastructure. 2. We can add any number (odd/even) number of Nodes to re-balance the VM placement. 3. After node failures the Maximum number of VMs that can run on the remaining nodes can be calculated with the following formula:- Total No. of VMs running after node failure = ((Total No. of Nodes) - (No. of failed Nodes)) * (Max. No. of VMs that can run per Node) The attached table gives a rough calculation on maximum number VMs that can run after node failures.

The SpmGrace is not about lowering the noise it's about keeping the host less utilized by running less VMs on it (which will also lower the noise, because it will give the SPM host worse score when looking for target to migrate to) got it, thanks :-) --J --J @Jirka? ___ 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

You'd need to detail what exactly are your trying to do. The term create
console can mean many things.
Assuming you want to open a console connection using virt-viewer using REST API…
conceptually quite simple - you get a ticket (set password for access, using
/vms/{vm:id}/ticket) an then invoke virt-viewer with the right parameters which
you get afterwards (vm's host, port, password).

Thanks Kausik On Fri, Jun 27, 2014 at 3:18 PM, kausik pal kausikpa...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Gilad/Martin, Thanks for the reply. Let me explain the scenario in details:- Each Host would have local filesystems and can be integrated with oVirt as POSIX filesystems storage. Assume each server can run maximum 6 VMs simultaneously(due to memory/CPU constraints) and we have configured 5 hosts (Node1, Node2Node5). In the beginning the 5 hosts are being configured in the oVirt engine and there is no VM. Now I create the first VM named VM1 and place it in Node1, from this point oVirt Schedular would decide which other host it would put the replica on. This replica VM1 will be in passive state in another host (Node 2 as per diagram). The same procedure would apply on the other created VMs as well. The role of the oVirt scheduler would be to optimize the placement of VMs in such a way that we can maximize the number of VMs availability in case of host(s) failure. Also it should replicate the delta updates to corresponding passive VMs. As per the scenario in a perfect condition 4 VMs are running in each host providing scope for running 2 extra VMs(maximum 6)in case of other host failures.The underlying local storage have kept 4 extra VMs (QCOW2 disks and config files) from different hosts in addition to the 4 VM disk files for the running VMs. Due to some reason Node2 and Node4 have failed, now the replicated passive VMs for the failed nodes will be started on the remaining nodes. In this case most of the VMs were able to start in different node except VM7 and VM14 as those VMs don't have replicas available in the other running nodes. The maximum availability of the VMs can be calculated using the following formula:- Total No. of VMs running after node failure = ((Total No. of Nodes) - (No. of failed Nodes)) * (Max. No. of VMs that can run per Node) The HA VM reservation is an excellent feature no doubt, but I think its only applicable if you have a shared storage underlying(NFS,SAN,Gluster etc..).(Correct me if I'm wrong) And yes GlusterFS does have distributed replicated feature which can replicate VM data in multiple bricks, but in GlusterFS you have to map the replicated bricks during creation and the data can only be replicated between the two (or multiple based on your replication numbers) bricks only. The advantage of this feature would be that you can add standalone nodes(odd/even numbers) in oVirt ecosystem and schedular can place VMs in such a balanced and optimized mode so that maximum number of VMs remain available after N nodes failure from M number of nodes(where MN) Please put your valuable thoughts regarding the same. Request you to let me know if you need any further clarifications from my side.

It means that migration will happen only if there is a difference of X vms or more between worst host (source host) to destination host. let say that you have 2 hosts. one has 10 vms and the second 8. if the threshold is 3, no migration will happen (10-8 ! 3). - exactly * SPMVMCountGrace - defines how many slots for VMs should be reserved on SPM hosts (the SPM host should have less load than others, so this variable defines how many VM less it should have) ( Does this mean that if I have a host with only 3 VMs the SPM will 3 VMs minus the SpmWmGrace?

Maybe it is userfull for you too: Migrate from VMWare to oVirt 1. On VmWare: a. Export the VM to ovf format. There is a smb/nfs share on virt-v2v you can use as storage. i. NFS: Virtv2v.:/media/Storage ii. SMB: virtv2v. share: virtv2v 2. with virtv2v a. Log in on the virt-v2v vm. b. Locate and Extract the ovf file with tar –xvf c. Convert the extracted vmdk file to raw disk format with the following command: vboxmanage clonehd --format RAW VMNAME.vmdk NewVMName.raw d. Convert the created RAW file to a qemu2 img: qemu-img convert -f raw VM-Name.raw -O qcow2 VMName.qcow2 e. Run the vm in virsh: virt-install --connect qemu:///system --ram 1024 -n griffu -r 2048 --os-type=linux --os-variant=rhel6 --disk path=/media/Storage/VMName.qcow2,device=disk,format=qcow2 --vcpus=2 --vnc --noautoconsole –import f. Take a xml dump of the VM and copy the result in a new file VMName.xml virsh dumpxml VMName g. Now let’s move the vm to ovirt.

[ovirt-users] does ovirt suit for managing for farm of test machines?
Hello. I have to manage about farm of 30 virtual machines the farm is hosted on two severs, it consists of windows, linux and solaris OSs. I use VirtualBox for virtualization. I did all setup manually, if I need to apply changes I again do this manually and this is real hell. So now I'm looking for a way to automate this. I have a few gold images of OS, if I need to setup new machine I clone it, then I setup new network setting for it manually and setup test demon. if I need to change test environment I have to change gold image, then remove all test machines and clone gold images and again configure network and setup test demon and all I need to do manually. Can ovirt to help automate this scenarios? Thanks, Michael. ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Re: [ovirt-users] Windows Guest Agent - Server 2008 R2
I also am running 2008 R2, and the guest agent is working fine. I just mounted the new pre-release tools iso and ran the installer.
