We have seen this before, and we thought it was fixed. Alan, can you describe exactly the sequence of events that leaded to this problem? When you say that the host died while going to maintenance what do you mean exactly? It crashed, rebooted, hung, was fenced? It would be very helpful if you have the engine logs at the time the host went down. Once you have those logs in a safe place, the only way to get the VM out of that status is to update the database manually. First make completely sure that the VM is not running in any host, then do the following: # psql -U engine psql (9.1.6) Type help for help. engine= update vm_dynamic set status = 0 where vm_guid = (select vm_gui from vm_static where vm_name = 'myvm'); UPDATE 1 (Assuming that the name of your VM is myvm). -- Dirección Comercial: C/Jose Bardasano Baos, 9, Edif.

Re: [Users] Failed to import Vm host to ovirt
Thank you so much for catching this, it made my life a bunch more easier! When we wanted to upgrade from oVirt-3.0 to 3.1, we followed the procedure of exporting all of the machines to export domain, crashed the entire system and started building it up again. When it was up and running, we tried importing the machines back, they all failed and we couldn´t figure anything out from just that non-saying error message and cryptic errors in engine log. But then I remembered reading something a while back about this, searched back and compared our error messages, and they matched. So I then dove into the storage and changed all of the references from the old name to the new, and importing was all smooth sailing from there: # sed -i '' 's/oldnetname/newnetname/g' master/vms/*/*.ovf Devs: I can´t remember, is this explained anywhere in the upgrading documents, that the bridge names need to be the same before and after, or that you need to modify that afterwards if they´ve changed? 11 sep 2012 kl. 16.22 skrev Thomas Scofield: Bugs filed. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=856219 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=856234 On Tue, Sep 11, 2012 at 1:16 AM, Haim Ateya hat...@redhat.commailto:hat...@redhat.com wrote: On 09/11/2012 12:32 AM, Thomas Scofield wrote: While trying to import a virtual machine I got very generic error message in the web interface Failed to import Vm host to ovirt, in the engine.log I got this java exception below.

Re: [Users] [Spice-devel] [oVirt 3.1] Spice USB support
I switch to native and the same error doesn't allow to start the VM (qemu-kvm: -device piix3-usb-uhci,id=usb,bus=pci.0,addr=0x1.0x2: Duplicate ID 'usb' for device). I'm using oVirt Engine 3.1.0-319 under CentOS 6.3 This is a libvirt error, it is producing an invalid command line to qemu, I suggest you report it to the relevant list. -- AGD ___ Spice-devel mailing list spice-de...@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
Re: [Users] call for suggests on oVirt authentication back-end (directory service, etc.)
LDAP-accessible core directories are pretty much required for any large enterprise for the forseeable future. Products like email gateways, remote support hosts, clustered services, cloud environments, etc. etc. all need highly available consistent user provisioning and AAA service, and everybody's building in LDAP clients to achieve this. You get a bomgar box or an Ironport and it wants LDAP. If you have 250 linux/Solaris/HP-UX servers you can choose LDAP, NIS/YP or Hesiod, but LDAP is best. Microsoft's ADS is simply their embraced and extended LDAP, designed to pull you into the Microsoft support structure forever by providing capabilities and consistency slightly extended beyond what RFC-compliant LDAP servers provide. TL;DR version - if you have 400 or more employees build a core directory with user passwords in it. If you are a Microsoft shop use ADS and be happy, if you are not a Microsoft shop think very carefully about letting the camel's nose into the tent. --Charlie On Wed, Oct 10, 2012 at 6:47 AM, Yair Zaslavsky yzasl...@redhat.com wrote: On 10/10/2012 12:13 PM, Itamar Heim wrote: On 10/09/2012 03:56 PM, Alan Johnson wrote: Thanks to Tim Hildred, I found out about the need to have a directory server.
