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%?

Of course, Vinzenz

The VM is a Windows 7 (I've tried both 32 and 64 bits, same result).
The C:\Windows\SysWOW64\rhev-agent log says:

Dummy-1::INFO::2014-07-10
14:35:57,417::OVirtGuestService::80::root::Starting OVirt Guest Agent

After look at the code, perhaps the problem may come on the run()
function in OvirtAgentLogic.py
def run(self):
   logging.debug("AgentLogicBase:: run() entered")
   thread.start_new_thread(self.doListen, ())
   thread.start_new_thread(self.doWork, ())
   # Yuck! It's seem that Python block all signals when executing
   # a "real" code. So there is no way just to sit and wait (with
   # no timeout).
   # Try breaking out from this code snippet:
   # $ python -c "import threading; threading.Event().wait()"
   while not self.wait_stop.isSet():
   self.wait_stop.wait(1)

Where this "while" is evaluating itself each second... besides the
wait function of the python module

By commenting  thread.start_new_thread(self.doWork, ()) the CPU has a
normal level when the service starts, but when we make a petition
through the host socket, the VM CPU goes to 100%.

Hope this helps, if you need any action from me, please tell me.

Hmm this is really strange, I am running the guest agent pretty
regularly on Windows 7 and I never noticed anything like this.

Could you please try to use the ovirt windows guest tools iso to
install the guest agent?
I am somehow surprised about the issue you're seeing.

I just realized that my 64bit machine has 1 CPU and my 32bit machine

oVirtGuestAgent.exe process eats a 50% CPU, not 100%, exactly like
the 32bit machine...
So I think there is a problem in the implementation of the agent. As
I'm not a developer myself, I cannot help to improve the agent.
Can I reduce the amount of CPU consumed by the process doing
something, like change the CPU virtualization (at the moment, is host
emulation), or something else?


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
bits oVirtGuestAgent in order to make SSO from my application to a
Windows VM.

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!

I set up my 3.4.2 ovirtmgmt interface as a bridge to a vlan before
installation, and it worked fine.

Yes, into the wiki page:

Yes, make sense. Please open a RFE.

[ovirt-users] [Documentation] Assistance Needed with User-Facing Documentation

[Brian Proffitt]

All:

The Red Hat ECS team has made a great effort to convert some of the more 
important downstream documentation to a MediaWiki format that we can post on 
oVirt.org as an official set of user- and admin-facing documentation. This is 
being done as a bootstrapping effort to get our upstream documentation up to 
date and take a big step towards making the upstream documentation the 
canonical source for documentation in the near future.

Before that can happen, we need to get this RHEV-oriented information ported 
over to oVirt nomenclature and screenshots taken for oVirt and added to the 
documents as well.

I have placed the three guides

* Administration Guide[1]
* User's Guide[2]
* Installation Guide[3]

on the oVirt site as unlinked pages. General wording has been changed from RHEV 
to oVirt, but not always. Each of these documents must be reviewed and 
completely adapted to oVirt 3.4 before they can be posted as official 
documentation. Specifically:

* Review all text to ensure proper steps and descriptions for oVirt features 
and procedures
* Review all text to remove downstream-specific text
* Review all code for changes in package names on on-screen displays
* Replace all downstream RHEV screenshots with upstream oVirt 3.4 screenshots 
(Max width: 1024px)

I will be stepping through these documents to edit them in more detail under 
these guidelines, but help is most assuredly needed, in order to get this done 
in a timely manner. oVirt.org wiki users can visit these pages, review them, 
and add their changes. MediaWiki has limited version control, so it would be 
best to edit sections instead of entire documents, to minimize stepping on 
others' changes. Editing by section will also help us track the sections that 
have been edited, using the pages' histories. 

Thank you in advance for all of your help on this project... when finished, 
this will represent a significant improvement to oVirt's documentation, and 
make oVirt that much easier to use.

Peace,
Brian

[ovirt-users] Problem with hosted engine setup on VLAN/bond combo

[Chris Adams]

I am trying to install oVirt with the hosted engine.  The physical
system is CentOS 6.5 x86_64 (with all current updates).  It is connected
to a two-switch stack via bond0 (running LACP), which is a VLAN trunk,
and the management interface is vlan51.

This doesn't work with oVirt 3.4.2, but I see that both 3.4.3 and 3.5
have "support engine on bond" and "support engine on vlan" in the
release notes, so I tried again with today's 3.4.3 RC.  I got a
different error from "hosted-engine --deploy":

[ ERROR ] Failed to execute stage 'Misc configuration': Command 
'/usr/bin/vdsClient' failed to execute

I see this in /var/log/vdsm/supervdsm.log:

Is there maybe still a problem combining a VLAN on a bond?


A little background (if it helps): this is my first attempt with oVirt.
I'm installing on a clean CentOS install on a spare box, with the intent
to get oVirt up and running and then convert (one node at a time) an
existing VM setup (running old stand-alone Xen installs) to oVirt.

Actually I'm using templates, but not pools
as I don't do this VDI stuff where it applies
the most.

Setup of the vms does work via cloud-init, also
via rest.

So I can really just encourage you to automate this :)
It works, but it takes some time.

If you have a template with all the characteristics you need, you can
easily create the 100 VMs with a Python script like this:

#!/usr/bin/python

import ovirtsdk.api
import ovirtsdk.xml

# Connect to the server:
api = ovirtsdk.api.API(
url="https://rhel.example.com/ovirt-engine/api";,
username="admin@internal",
password="**",
insecure=True,
debug=False,
)

# Locate the cluster:
cluster = api.clusters.get(name="mycluster")
cluster = ovirtsdk.xml.params.Cluster(id=cluster.get_id())

# Locate the template:
template = api.templates.get(name="mytemplate")
template = ovirtsdk.xml.params.Template(id=template.get_id())

# Create the VMs:

for i in range(0, 99):
name = "vm%d" % i
print("Creating VM %s ..." % name)
vm = ovirtsdk.xml.params.VM(name=name, cluster=cluster,
template=template)
api.vms.add(vm)

# Disconnect:
api.disconnect()

The location of that documentation has changed a bit for 3.4:

Did you consider using templates and pools?

Well there is no guide on the web which I'm aware of.
But to my experience, scripting the shell has it's limitations
you might want to try the python sdk, which is more useful
or if you need some webapp anyway use the rest api.
you could also script the rest api using e.g. curl
but I wouldn't recommend that.

there is documentation on this here:

https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.3/html/Developer_Guide/index.html

https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.3/html/Command_Line_Shell_Guide/index.html

you can basically substitute rhev with ovirt.

there still seems to be no updated dev guides for 3.4 though.

I have automated everything via REST, as I have php devs
who did the work ;)

There are still some things you can't do via rest, like
creating network qos entities (attaching them to a vm works
but you need to create them manually).

But in the future everything will use rest, so I guess this
is the best way to go.

There are two issues here. One is that currently the CLI doesn't work
correctly with parameters that start with a number, as the lexer splits
it into a number and a word, and then it thinks that there are two
parameters instead of one. We have a bug (a RHEV bug, it it affects
oVirt as well) for that already:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1110366

You can workaround this using quotes, either simple or double.

The other issue is that you are probably a *multicast* MAC address. That
is what the server is actually checking, not just that it is
syntactically correct. This basically means that the eight bit can't be
1, as that is what indicates multicast. Just make sure that you use a
MAC address whose second character isn't an odd number. For example,
this will fail:

  # add nic --vm-identifier ov31 --network-name backend --name eth4
--mac-address '01:01:01:01:01:01'

But this will succeed:

  # add nic --vm-identifier ov31 --network-name backend --name eth4
--mac-address '00:01:01:01:01:01'

The error message could be better. You may want to open a bug requesting
an improvement.

afaik you just need to put "" around your mac, but I'm not 100% sure.
I seem to have deleted the code where I stumbled across the

[ovirt-users] ovirt-shell

[Steve Kilduff]

Hi All,

Trying to add a nic to a vm with a specific mac address.

[oVirt shell (connected)]# add nic --vm-identifier ov31 --network-name
backend --name eth4 --mac-address HH:HH:EE:HH:HH:01

   ERROR =
  status: 400
  reason: Bad Request
  detail: MAC address must be in format "HH:HH:HH:HH:HH:HH" where H is a
hexadecimal character (either a digit or A-F, case is insignificant).
  =


Also interesting is when I change the beginning of the mac address to 00
instead of HH, I get :

[oVirt shell (connected)]# add nic --vm-identifier ov31 --network-name
backend --name eth4 --mac-address 01:HH:EE:HH:HH:01
   ERROR
==
   wrong number of arguments, try 'help add' for help.

=



I have tried some things like enclosing in single and double quotes but no
success.

I have also tried to read the help sections on the shell interface but I
also could not figure it out.

Thanks in advance,

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

[Angel Docampo]

I also already used the ovirt windows guest tools iso. I did installed 
a brand new windows 7 and installed the ovirt windows guest tools via 
iso, but when we started our kvm virtual machine adding this parameter:


-chardev 
socket,id=ovirtagent,path=/tmp/104.com.redhat.vdsm,server,nowait 
-device virtio-serial-pci,id=virtio-serial0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x7 -device 
virtserialport,chardev=ovirtagent,name=com.redhat.rhevm.vdsm,bus=virtio-serial0.0,id=port1


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%?

Of course, Vinzenz

The VM is a Windows 7 (I've tried both 32 and 64 bits, same result).
The C:\Windows\SysWOW64\rhev-agent log says:

Dummy-1::INFO::2014-07-10
14:35:57,417::OVirtGuestService::80::root::Starting OVirt Guest Agent
service

After look at the code, perhaps the problem may come on the run()
function in OvirtAgentLogic.py
def run(self):
   logging.debug("AgentLogicBase:: run() entered")
   thread.start_new_thread(self.doListen, ())
   thread.start_new_thread(self.doWork, ())
   # Yuck! It's seem that Python block all signals when executing
   # a "real" code. So there is no way just to sit and wait (with
   # no timeout).
   # Try breaking out from this code snippet:
   # $ python -c "import threading; threading.Event().wait()"
   while not self.wait_stop.isSet():
   self.wait_stop.wait(1)

Where this "while" is evaluating itself each second... besides the
wait function of the python module

By commenting  thread.start_new_thread(self.doWork, ()) the CPU has a
normal level when the service starts, but when we make a petition
through the host socket, the VM CPU goes to 100%.

Hope this helps, if you need any action from me, please tell me.

Hmm this is really strange, I am running the guest agent pretty
regularly on Windows 7 and I never noticed anything like this.

Could you please try to use the ovirt windows guest tools iso to
install the guest agent?
I am somehow surprised about the issue you're seeing.

I just realized that my 64bit machine has 1 CPU and my 32bit machine

the 32bit machine...
So I think there is a problem in the implementation of the agent. As
I'm not a developer myself, I cannot help to improve the agent.
Can I reduce the amount of CPU consumed by the process doing
something, like change the CPU virtualization (at the moment, is host
emulation), or something else?


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
bits oVirtGuestAgent in order to make SSO from my application to a
Windows VM.

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!

The VM is a Windows 7 (I've tried both 32 and 64 bits, same result).

By commenting  thread.start_new_thread(self.doWork, ()) the CPU has a

Hope this helps, if you need any action from me, please tell me.
Hmm this is really strange, I am running the guest agent pretty 
regularly on Windows 7 and I never noticed anything like this.


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

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

Hello everybody,

32 bits works flawlessly, I can login, logout and lock screen at the

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?

Re: [ovirt-users] Disk's locked of VM

Hello Vered,

Okay. That I understand. That was also what we where using but somehow
while activating the stateless state of that vm the disks got locked and
stayed that way even after a reboot. I suspect they activated the stateless
state and restarted that vm to soon.

Kind regards.

[ovirt-users] Docker containers for ovirt-engine

[Daniel Erez]

Hi,

I've created a couple of Docker images with a running ovirt-engine service
and uploaded to the Docker registry [1].

Quite useful for quickly having a ready-to-use environment (tests, demos, etc)
or to be used as a base image for building new Docker Images.
Note that currently the container is not persistent by its nature,
hence for saving changes, take use of the 'commit' functionality [2].

Offline VMware images (OVAs), not yet.  However patches are welcome.
We quite literally have no one available to implement this.

Re: [ovirt-users] Disk's locked of VM

[Vered Volansky]

Hello Andy,

Thanks for your reply.
I think I understand what's going on there.
I think your running the VM in stateless mode, which means that what happened 
is exactly what should have happened.
When you run a VM in stateless mode, What's actually happening is that a 
snapshot is being taken and the VM runs on this snapshot. When the VM is 
rebooted the snapshot is deleted (with everything installed on it) and the VM 
goes back to the previous state (with the previous Active Image). This is the 
point of the Run stateless feature.
If you want the installations to persist, just run the VM, not statelessly.

Is it possible that this is what happened?
lease let me know if you need any further assistance.

Best Regards,
Vered

Hi All,

The proposed feature will introduce a new process of import virtual machines

Am I right that this still involves a full operational e.g. esxi host
to import vmware vms?

There is a huge user demand on a simpler process for just converting and
importing an vmware disk image. This feature will not solve this
use case, will it?




I agree it should. need to check if virt-v2v can cover this. if not, 
need to fix it so it will...

Some thoughts after reviewing:
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/virt-v2v_Integration

great to see this - its something which i hope will ease a lot 
conversion to oVirt!


adding users@ mailing list, to get feedback on the use cases.


1. Need to understand if possible to provide the VM via 'uploading
   it'[1]

2. does this really merit a provider per external system? or just
   ability to choose source path (including simple nfs/posix path
   pointing to existing kvm disks or vmware vmdk's), or URI/user
   /passowrd for such a system if vsphere/etc.?
   I'm not opposed to allowing to define providers, I would just
   remember that's a specific single use case, and would separate the
   import/convert flow from being part of the provider (i.e., on the
   import/convert flow, would allow to choose the source being a path
   or a pre-defined provider)

to sum above two points, I think the page should start with 'use cases':
- I have a KVM VM i want to 'convert' to RHEV (doesn't need full v2v,
  but libvirt-->ovf conversion?)
  the VM(s) is/are in an nfs/posix path, or i want to upload the VM.

- i have a folder with VMs/disks i want to convert (make sure this
  covers the ESXi flow)

- I have a vsphere to import VMs from

- I have Xen...

(hope to see input from users on these. I'm sure there was a thread on 
this in the past, what do you know, i started one...[2])


3. does this mean virt-v2v and all of its dependencies will be required
   by vdsm (and on ovirt-node). also, for distro's which have it, of
   the required windows components?

4. most important flow i would like to remove via this integration is
   the "double copy". i.e., if we run v2v from a host, there is no
   reason to not pre-create the VM/disks for it, and have v2v overwrite
   their content, instead of converting into the export domain just to
   perform another copy/import.
   (may mean you want virt-v2v to have a specific verb to just get the
   OVF, and a specific verb to convert a disk)

[1] we want to support upload of an iso/VM/disks in any case.
