[ovirt-users] ovirtmgmt STP disabled - any reason behind that

2019-09-23 Thread Strahil Nikolov
Hi All,
I recently got an issue and due to lack of debug time , I'm still not sure if 
it was a loop on the network.Can someone clarify why the ovirtmgmt bridge has 
STP disabled ? Any reason behind that ?
Also, what is the proper way to enable STP on those bridges ?
For now , I have set highest priority of the STP on my router and I don't 
expect the issue to reoccur (if it really was a loop), but I want to avoid 
future issues like that.

[ovirt-users] Re: VDI

2019-09-23 Thread Alex McWhirter

To achieve that all you need to do is create a template of the desktop
base vm, make sure the vm type is set to desktop. Afterwards just create
new vms from that template. As long as the VM type is set to desktop
each new VM will use a qcow overlay on top of the base image. 


Taking this a step further you can then create VM pools from said
template, allowing users to dynamically be assigned a new VM on login.
Granted pools are usually stateless, so you need to have network file
storage. We use pools for windows 10 VDI instances, where we use sysprep
to autojoin the new pool vm to the domain where redirected folders are
already setup. 


For VDI only use spice protocol. By default we found spice to be semi
lackluster, so we do apply custom settings and we have recompiled spice
on both servers and clients with h264 support. This is not 100%
necessary, but makes things like youtube much more usable. We have also
backported some audio patches to KVM. CentOS 8 should resolve a lot of
these customizations that we've had to do. 


As far as updating, pretty much. We create a VM from the template,
update it, then push it back as a new version of the template. The pools
are set to always use the latest template version. Users have to log
out, then back in to the VDI system in order to get the new image as
logging out will destroy the users current instance and create a new one
on log in.

Hi Alex, thanks for answering. 

I am approaching and studying oVirt in order to propose the solution to a customer as a replacement for a commercial solution they have now. 
They only need Desktop virtualization. 
Sorry for the silly question, but I can't find a way to deploy a VM (template) to users as a "linked-clone", meaning that the users' image still refers to the original image but modification are written (and afterwards read) from a new location. This technique is called Copy-on-write. 
Can this be achieved with oVirt? 

Then, what is the Best Practice to update WIndows OS for the all the users? Currently they simply "check-out"  the Gold Image, update it and check-in, while all users are running...

Section 6.92.2 documents a POST request that lets one add *existing* bricks to 
an existing volume.
This doesn't answer my question on how one can create *new* bricks via the REST

[ovirt-users] Re: oVirt + Gluster

2019-09-23 Thread Strahil
Recently both oVirt node and Hypervisor have moved to gluster v6  (although I 
have moved a little bit earlier).
For me v6 of Gluster is quite stable and if you dig up really nice , you will 
be able to even setup 'gtop' which gives great info.

Ovirt is quite well integrated with gluster - doing health checks ,provide 
monitoring, allow creating additional gluster volumes and many more.

Still, if you have FC available - it should be way easier to setup and tune.

Docs are one of the weak stuff , but you can always check RHV (4.0+) and Oracle 
docs - as oVirt is upstream of RedHat's and Oracle's Virtualization.

[ovirt-users] Re: oVirt + Gluster

2019-09-23 Thread TomK

Thanks Strahil!

Search results return info where only Gluster 3.X is supported.

Sometime back I asked if a specific version of Gluster was available 
having issues with GFS 4.1. Was told to wait up a bit even though the 
wiki pages indicated GFS 3.3+ is supported.


https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/TLKLRUZXVMTRKLS2I26AEGKETT2BVXRD/

Are there more recent Wiki pages keeping a list of what's supported and 
what's not?


Google returns alot of dated pages for me.

Cheers,
TK
