Is Fedora not supported anymore? I've read the release notes for the 4.2r2 beta and 4.1.7, they mention specific versions of RHEL and CentOS, but only mention Fedora by name, with no specific version information. On 11/15/2017 9:17 AM, Sandro Bonazzola wrote This release is available now

Thank you. The mention of Fedora then should be removed from the release notes, maybe even stating that it's not recommended? On 11/30/2017 4:21 AM, Yedidyah Bar David wrote: On Wed, Nov 29, 2017 at 7:29 PM, Blaster <blas...@556nato.com> wrote: Is Fedora not supported anymore? I'v

I need to create an old oVirt Windows VM. The VM has an old licensed product that we can no longer get a licensed reissued for. It looks like I need to feed back the original qemu UUID that was used when the VM was created. I have an engine config backup and a backup of the oVirt storage

Fresh install of 4.2 self hosted engine. Right after install, I tried to add local storage.  I tried to put the hosted engine VM into maint mode, but it forever just sat there in the going into maint state, and never actually went into maint state. The default Datacenter was in uninitialized

So I accidentally wiped out the underlying storage for the master storage domain for the default data center for my self hosted configuration. The re-initialize data center option is greyed out. I can’t add any other storage domains because there isn’t a master. I keep getting pop up errors

Just installing 4.2 coming from a 3.6.3 configuration. When I go to the admin page, it appears all of the management pieces are there to manage the hypervisor, similar to the old All In One configuration. What purpose does the Self Hosted Engine piece do from there? Do I only need that now if

Re: [ovirt-users] Assign external IP to VM

2017-12-26 Thread Blaster
You're over thinking this.  Just create an ifcfg script just enough so the interface plumbs, with no IP, then add it do your datacenter, with something like dmz or internet as it's name.  Then add the NIC to the VM and plumb it up. Since there's no IP plumbed in the hypervisor, there's no way

I did that over a year ago when I first had the issue. They washed their hands of it saying it was known to work on ESXi and they don’t have any device drivers nor where they doing anything but standard Windows library calls, so they pushed it back to a Hypervisor issue. It’s known to work
