Best is understood from an example: - we give a user a quota (with x CPU, y memory and z disk space) - a user can create one VirtualMachine with all the resources, or more VirtualMachines with smaller resources. - we want to give a user a pool of IPs. He should not use other IPs. If he uses other IP it should not be routable. Is there a solution for this problem? Normal solution: * mirror port on your switch which is forwarded to a NIDS and search for unauthoried IPs MACs pairs Software foo can to everything solution: * libvirt know nwfilter * vdsm has hooks thus combination of your own nwfilters, custom properties and vdsm hooks. Or raise a RFE so we could assing nwfilters to a VM. my take is that as long as you use an external ip allocation mechanism (dhcp/static) - its up to you to limit. once engine will do the allocations (IPAM, or L3), then quota's for IP addresses could be relevant. ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

So my understanding there is no way to have a photo, in qemu language _checkpoint_, in VMWare language _snapshot_ without interupting the VM. Am I right? Any comments? live snapshot with ram should cover this. interruption to vm is supposed to be similar to live migration - not noticeable (YMMV). This topic is quite confusing while searching Internet. jbelka ___ 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

I compiled ovirt-guest-agent service for windows XP and Windows7 A quick command line example of using rest/api to get applications? Applications aren't accessible using REST-API. But it would be great if this would be added as a feature in 3.3... :) interesting. michael - any reason for this? the overhead of sending a bulk of applications when listing vms at /vms, but this can be implemented as emulated sub-collection under vm (as we did for /cdroms), i've filed [1] for this. [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=926928 as a workaround, command line can be done at host level via vdsClient -s 0 getAllVmStats It remains the problem to use wan options in oVirt. Can I execute some test as in http://www.ovirt.org/How_to_Connect_to_SPICE_Console_Without_Portal how to translate these wan options if I want to try this way? Thanks Gianluca spice-devel - what's the command line option for virt-viewer to tweak spice wan behavior? ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
Re: [Users] Disk reported as a thin allocated disk after live storage migration on iSCSI storage
On RHEV 3.1,after a disk was successfully live migrated from one storage domain to another,I noticed that on the Admin Portal,it was being reported as a Thin allocated disk.It was originally a preallocated disk.Is that expected?
