Hi,

there is no other way how to provide reliable HA VMs in oVirt wihout any 
hardware power management. If your servers don't provide any HW power 
management (such as IPMI, ILO, DRAC, ...), then the only option is to attach 
their power supply inputs through UPS with remote access and use apc fencing 
driver to restart servers using UPS.

[ovirt-users] Re: How to configure HA virtual machine on hosts without IPMI

2022-10-11 Thread Klaas Demter
Don't storage leases solve that problem? I seem to recall a HA VM also 
works when (gets restarted on other node) a hypervisor completely loses 
power, ie there is no response on the fencing device. I'd expect it to 
work the same without a fencing device.



Greetings

[ovirt-users] Local (Deployment) VM Can't Reach "centos-ceph-pacific" Repo

2022-10-11 Thread Matthew J Black
Hi All,

OK, new issue: :-(

If I'm reading things right the local (deployment) vm can't get to the 
centos-ceph-pacific repo.

The repo is installed on the host machine (along with all of the relevant 
dependant repos).

I thought that local 192.168.222.0/24 network was nated out the virbr0 virtual 
bridge - am I wrong in this (ie do we need to update/change our routing 
tables/whatever)?

Here is the (relevant part) of the log:

[ovirt-users] Convert raw images to qcow format

2022-10-11 Thread Jonas
Hi there

I want to create incremental backups of a few imported VMs, but the VM disks 
are in the raw disk format which does not support incremental backup. Is there 
a way to convert existing disks from raw to qcow in oVirt? Since qemu-img can 
do this,I assume there must be a way..

Thank you

[ovirt-users] Re: Network Interface Already In USe - Self-Hosted Install

2022-10-11 Thread Matthew J Black
Hi All,

OK, so after much reading of logs, Ansible files, blog posts, documentation, 
and much gnashing of teeth, glasses of bourbon, language to make a sailor 
blush, tears, blood, sweat, and various versions of "DOH!", I finally worked 
out what was wrong - what I did wrong - and so I'm putting it down here so that 
the next person who comes along with the same (or a similar) issue doesn't have 
to go through what I went through - and I'm including a couple of suggestions 
to the devs/doco writers which (I believe) would have stopped me from making my 
mistake in the first place.

When I did my install I used the command:

~~~
hosted-engine --deploy --4 
--ansible-extra-vars=he_ipv4_subnet_prefix=172.16.1
~~~

I did this because we're running an IPv4 network and because the oVirt Engine 
needs to be on the 172.16.1.0/24 network - and that's what I thought the 
"he_ipv4_subnet_prefix" option did, and I was trying to let the deployment 
script know this in advance instead of having to discover this itself.

Now that I've gone back over *all* the doco I realise that the 
"he_ipv4_subnet_prefix" option is *not* used for this purpose, but is instead 
used for the *temporary* ip address of the deployment engine when the default 
subnet of 192.168.222.0/24 is not available.

Because I was specifying the 172.16.1.0/24 network (which is already in use) 
the deployment failed because it was attempting to create that network as a 
temporary network for the initial deployment.

So yes, as I said, my fault - no question about that at all.

Some suggestions:

Although it is stated in the documentation - Installing oVirt As A Self-Hosted 
Engine Using The Command Line, section 2.3.2 
(https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/installing_ovirt_as_a_self-hosted_engine_using_the_command_line/index.html#Network-range-for-SHE-deployment_SHE_cli_deploy)
 - (I believe) it is not very clear what is happening here, so a "Note:" or 
some sort of statement explicitly stating what this is used for might be in 
order. For example, here is the note I made for our team in our internal 
documentation:

~~~
**Note:** he_ipv4_subnet_prefix=x.x.x: - This is a temporary network prefix 
if 192.168.222.0/24 (the default) is not available - this is ***NOT*** the 
final working subnet of the oVirt Engine.

I also believe - quite strongly, in fact - that having the entire deployment 
hidden behind the "black box" that is the Ansible deployment - while making 
things easy by automating the deployment - makes troubleshooting more 
difficult. I believe that if there was a definite "Step-By-Step" list of what 
was going on behind the scenes - perhaps as an Appendix to the documentation - 
then the mistake I made would have been a lot harder to make - ie if there was 
such a list then it would have been less likely to make the assumption I made.

I'm thinking something along the lines of (and I am aware that what follows is 
not correct):

~~~
1. Collect info - this is stored in "/path/file" temporarily.
2. Install Deployment VM.
3. Deployment VM creates internal bridge - this uses 192.168.222.0/24 by 
default but can be overridden by "he_ipv4_subnet_prefix".
4. Deployment Engine creates oVirt Engine.
etc, etc, etc
~~~

Anyway, that's my feedback / suggestions / mea culpa / whatever.  :-)

Cheers
