[ovirt-users] Engine deploy fails - "Wait for the host to be up"
I use ansible to build a 3 node HCI environment, or at least I did with 4.4.6. This fails every time with 4.5.2 - what broke? Has anyone any idea what changed and if there's a simple resolution?

Nevermind.

[ovirt-users] Virtual Machine Pools
Hopefully, someone can clarify this a bit for me... >From the redhat instructions... "In principle, virtual machines in a pool are started when taken by a user, and shut down when the user is finished. However, virtual machine pools can also contain pre-started virtual machines. Pre-started virtual machines are kept in an up state, and remain idle until they are taken by a user. This allows users to start using such virtual machines immediately, but these virtual machines will consume system resources even while not in use due to being idle." How do users request "take" virtual machines from the pool? For example with a windows machine where we want them to remote desktop into it using RDP? Or does this have to happen through some other portal? Do we have to give users access to the VM Portal?

[ovirt-users] The latest guest agent needs to be installed
I've got a couple of VMs giving me this error message, "the latest guest agent needs to be installed and running". These VMs have the latest guest agent installed and it is running (virtio-win-1.9.24.iso) The only change to the environment recently was one host has been upgraded from 4.5.2 to 4.5.3. It seems to be the VMs that had at one point ran on this updated host. However, that host is currently turned off they are running on 4.5.2 hosts and have been rebooted. These are Windows Server 2022, 2019 and Windows 11 VMs. I will be updating the rest of the hosts this weekend so can see what happens then. The qemu-guest-agent tools is the same version running elsewhere even tried to repair it no change. Any ideas?

Furthermore, I cannot put the host into local maintenance. The command: "hosted-engine --set-maintenance --mode=local" yields the error: RuntimeError: Couldn't connect to VDSM within 60 seconds "hosted-engine --vm-status" returns the error: The hosted engine configuration has not been retrieved from shared storage yet, please ensure that ovirt-ha-agent service is running.

[ovirt-users] Re: expired host certificate
How do I run Enroll Certificate ??? It doesn't appear to be a command line command. As for upgrading to 4.5, I can't upgrade because the hosted engine is running CentOS Linux, not CentOS Stream. ___ Users mailing list -- users@ovirt.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@ovirt.org Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/privacy-policy.html oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/NIZKQUBIAAISUORVSJCB2J6HAUXRU3GE/

Yes, but oVirt does that quite differently. Despite the challenges around deployment I believe it's a way safer solution than trying to run this independently/manually.

The complexity is with network and storage preparation, that's why we need ovirt-engine because all the configuration and logic is there. You can run suff manually but then you have to handle all that yourself too. E.g. what happens if the VM dies, what happens if storage becomes disconnected, how do you connect it after host boot, etc. That's what self-hosted engine feature does. It's not without its own issues, but it's there to care of all these cases > > The only visible problem is a warning at the VM that was started manually > saying "Newer configuration for next run".

[ovirt-users] infrastructure boostrap. (i.e engine start / autostart).
Hi, We decided to run the oVirt engine (Oracle flavor) outside the infrastructure. (Medium infrastructure, 10 Hosts, iSCSI storage arrays) We created a second, smaller infrastructure (Single host, local storage) for management (engine) and monitoring (nagios, Dell storage manager etc..) . . This secondary infrastructure's engine runs in the first infrastructure. So, If you picture it, we're facing a "bootstrap" cross-dependency problem where each engine need the other one to start. This is actually a design we had when we were using Xen (Oracle's). Xen provides the "xen create" command to start a VM, even w/o a manager. Bootstrap problem solved. We're moving to oVirt and I understand that oVirt does not support out-of-the-box starting a VM w/o the engine. I've found a workaround that seems to work and would like your advice : - keep a dump of XML of the engine VM # virsh -r dumpxml prodEngine > prodEngine.xml - When necessary use virsh to start the engine # virsh -c qemu:///system?authfile=/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/virsh_auth.conf create prodEngine.xml The only visible problem is a warning at the VM that was started manually saying "Newer configuration for next run". A restart clears the warning and there's does not seem to be consequences with the VM that had been started from a dump xml. Note : I understand that there is the "self-hosted" engine architecture that solves that "bootstrap" problem. We're no into that for now. We had bad experience with that design in the past. ___ Users mailing list -- users@ovirt.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@ovirt.org Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/privacy-policy.html oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/E2WM2N7G5VVIXI7M7VQEALSE7XO6RHUC/
