With the fullname to *.ova, the VM is importable. yeah!

At this point, path is ok, but *.ova should be **browsed** too.

Thanks for providing the logs.
We don't support OVA directory with content (OVF, disks) that was created
by oVirt yet (it only works with content that was created by VMware).
The OVA tar file should not be extracted and the path to the OVA should
include the filename, e.g., /export/ovirt/export/xx/my.ova

If you pack the directory's content into an OVA file, please note that the
OVF should be placed at the first entry.

There is a bug about changing 'path' to something like 'path to ova file'
in the import dialog [1], I may add a validation for that as well until
we'll also support the OVA directory format.

Hi Arik, Hi Fabrice,i have tried the same procedure with 4.2.1, with same results.After commands:# mkdir /var/log/ovirt-engine/ova# chown ovirt.ovirt /var/log/ovirt-engine/ovaI can provide log files. See ansible script failed. /export/ovirt/export/xx is the correct directory where i have extracted the *.ova file because the UI search for *.ovf file and didn’t recognize *.ova files directly ? Please see attachments:CheersOlri

Hi Richard,

Selecting Upload->Cancel at that tab will remove such a disk.

That's great, but note that importing an OVA that was created by VMware is
totally different than importing an OVA that was created by oVirt
implementation-wise.

I'm afraid that's not the issue here - the OVF inside the OVA seems valid
(otherwise, the UI would have failed to "load" the configuration from the
OVA file).
You may be facing one of the various issues that were already resolved and
will be available in 4.2.2, but it's hard to tell without having the logs.
If you can share the engine+ansible logs, we will gladly look at them and
try to shed more light on the issue you're facing.
Otherwise, I would suggest to wait for 4.2.2 where the new OVA support is
much more mature.

[ovirt-users] Unremovable disks created through the API

[Richard W.M. Jones]

I've been playing with disk uploads through the API.  As a result
I now have lots of disks in the states "Paused by System" and
"Paused by User".  They are not attached to any VM, and I'm logged
in as admin@internal, but there seems to be no way to use them.
Even worse I've now run out of space so can't do anything else.

How can I remove them?

Screenshot: http://oirase.annexia.org/tmp/ovirt.png

It's a pretty recent engine:

ovirt-engine-4.2.2.2-0.0.master.20180225172203.gitd7cf125.el7.centos.noarch

Hello,

We did cover memory save or not and fsfreeze automatically done by guest
agent if installed inside the VM.
What about pre-snapshot scripts/operations to run inside guest, to have
application consistency?
Eg if I have a database inside the VM and I have scripted my backup job
involving live-snapshot (eg with the backup.py utility of the thread)


https://github.com/guillon/qemu-plugins/blob/master/scripts/qemu-guest-agent/fsfreeze-hook.d/mysql-flush.sh.sample

Y.


Can I leverage this kind of functionality with the oVirt guest agent?
Or is it mandatory to consider a remote connection to the VM (via ssh or
what for windows?) and execute the script/command/bat file?

What are you curently doing in this respect?

Thanks,

I don't know about 4.2, but in 4.1 and 4.0 there is a right-click
context menu that gives you access to the Power Off feature.  If that
doesn't work (ISTR disucssion about removing that context menu), then
there must be a different way to access it now.

[ovirt-users] Pre-snapshot scripts to run before live snapshot

[Gianluca Cecchi]

Hello,
this thread last year (started by me... ;-) was very useful in different
aspects involved

http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2017-March/080322.html

We did cover memory save or not and fsfreeze automatically done by guest
agent if installed inside the VM.
What about pre-snapshot scripts/operations to run inside guest, to have
application consistency?
Eg if I have a database inside the VM and I have scripted my backup job
involving live-snapshot (eg with the backup.py utility of the thread)

Can I leverage this kind of functionality with the oVirt guest agent?
Or is it mandatory to consider a remote connection to the VM (via ssh or
what for windows?) and execute the script/command/bat file?

What are you curently doing in this respect?

Thanks,

Gianluca

Re: [ovirt-users] After the export, the import OVA failed

[Fabrice SOLER]

Hello,

I constated that the ovf format is not the same when I made the export 
ova with vmware and ovirt.


Export ova with vmware :

[root@eple-rectorat-proto AntiVirus]# file AntiVirus.ovf
AntiVirus.ovf: XML 1.0 document, ASCII text, with very long lines, with 
CRLF line terminators


Export ova with ovirt :
[root@ovirt-eple amon]# file vm.ovf
vm.ovf: XML 1.0 document, ASCII text, with very long lines, with no line 
terminators


With Ovirt there is no line terminators.

Is that normal ? Is that why the OVA import does not work ?

Sincerely,

Fabrice SOLER

Hello Alexandr,

After having clicked on the VM link, you'll notice that on the right of 
the Shutdown button is an arrow allowing you to access to the Power Off

Hi,
well, screenshot’s not really enough to uderstand what exactly are you trying 
to do
Is that in 3.6 engine? Latest 3.6? Do you have any VMs running? Can you share 
that engine.log?

Did you deployed with the vintage --noansible flow?
In that case you explicitly have to add another SD before the auto import
process can be started.

[ovirt-users] Importing VM fails with "No space left on device"

[Nicolas Ecarnot]

Hello,

When importing a VM, I'm facing the know bug :
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2770791

QImgError: ecode=1, stdout=[], stderr=['qemu-img: error while writing 
sector 93569024: No space left on device'


The difference between my case and what is described in the RH webpage 
is that I have no "Failed to flush the refcount block cache".


Here is what I see :


ecfbd1a4-f9d2-463a-ade6-def5bd217b43::DEBUG::2018-03-06 
09:57:36,460::utils::718::root::(watchCmd) FAILED:  = ['qemu-img: error while

I followed the advices in the RH webpage (check if the figures are 
correct between the qemu-img sizes and the meta-data file), and they 
seem to be correct :

Still new to oVirt and got another question:

I have many Windows and Linux VMs and created for each the Windows and

Now I want to grant the groups according permissions to according VMs. 
How can I do this without clicking through every VM manually (e.g. by

You can use our Python SDK, please see below example:


https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine-sdk/blob/master/sdk/examples/assign_permission_to_vms.py

Or you can use Ansible if you are familiar with it:


http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/ovirt_permissions_module.html#examples

The playbook would look like:

 ---
- hosts: localhost
  connection: local
  vars:
 username: admin@internal
 password: thepassowrd
 insecure: True
 url: https://ovirt.example.com/ovirt-engine/api

  tasks:
  - name: Obtain SSO token
ovirt_auth:
  url: "{{ url }}"
  username: "{{ username }}"
  password: "{{ password }}"
  insecure: "{{ insecure }}"

  - name: Add permissions to user
ovirt_permissions:
  auth: "{{ ovirt_auth }}"
  user_name: user2
  authz_name: internal-authz
  object_type: vm
  object_name: "{{ item }}"
  role: UserVmManager
with_items:
  - myvm1
  - myvm2
  - myvm3

  - name: Revoke SSO token
ovirt_auth:
  state: absent
  ovirt_auth: "{{ ovirt_auth }}"
