from:"Martijn Grendelman"

Hi!

Thanks. Like I wrote, I have metadata backups from /etc/lvm/backup and
-/archive, and I also have the current metadata as it exists on disk. What I'm
most concerned about, is the proposed procedure.

Moving disks out of the domain is currently not possible. oVirt says 'Source
Storage Domain is not active'.

Thanks,
Martijn.

If it succeeds - then you can evacuate all VMs away before you can start
"breaking" the storage domain.

Best Regards,
Strahil Nikolov

It appears that O365 has trouble delivering mails to this list, so two

This mail has all of the content of 3 successive mails. I apologize for this

Hi,

For the first time in many months I have run into some trouble with oVirt 
(4.3.4.3) and I need some help.

Yesterday, I noticed one of my iSCSI storage domains was almost full, and tried 
to move a disk image off of it, to another domain. This failed, and somewhere 
in the process, the whole storage domain went to status 'Inactive'.

Strange, the import failed twice, and it succeeded when I tried a third
time.  I'll report back when I encounter this problem again. Thanks.

Best regards,

I don't think I ever replied to this, but I can confirm that in RHEV 3.6
it works with NFS.

Is this on the roadmap?

I just bought a bunch of 4k native drives and spent a LOT of money. Now
it seems they are useless in my oVirt/RHEV environment...

[ovirt-users] iSCSI storage maintenance

2016-05-26 Thread Martijn Grendelman

Hi,

I have a simple oVirt setup, with one storage server and a couple of
hypervisors, running some 50 VMs. The storage server uses ZFS zvols,
exported over iSCSI with SCST. Now I want to do some maintenance on the
storage, specificly I want to update SCST to a new version.

I expect that the normal procedure for this would be:
- shutdown all VMs
- put storage domain into maintenance
- perform maintenance
- get everything back online

Now I know I can also take the following ugly shortcut:
- stop SCST daemon
- see all VMs go to Paused
- perform maintenance
- restart SCST
- resume all VMs or wait for them to resume themselves

The win being of course, that nothing has to be restarted/rebooted.
Extremely small scale testing (one running VM on a 20 GB test domain)
indicates, that this works like a charm. The VM resumes without a
problem and doesn't log anything storage related.

My question is: what are the risks involved in the shortcut scenario?

I understand that there are IOPS that never reach the disk, so they have
to be queued somewhere (inside Qemu I presume). What happens if this
happens with 50 VMs at once?

Best regards,
Martijn.

Re: [ovirt-users] Bad performance with Windows 2012 guests

2015-05-04 Thread Martijn Grendelman


Hi,



Ever since our first Windows Server 2012 deployment on oVirt (3.4 back
then, now 3.5.1), I have noticed that working on these VMs via RDP or on
the console via VNC is noticeably slower than on Windows 2008 guests on
the same oVirt environment.

[snip]


Does anyone share this experience?
Any idea why this could happen and how it can be fixed?
Any other information I should share to get a better idea?


Hi Martijn,
Can you please provide the QEMU command line, together with kvm and qemu 
version?

This information will be helpful for reproducing the problem.
However, if the problem is not reproducible on a local setup, we will
probably need to ask collecting some performance information with
xperf tool.


Sure!

[ovirt-users] Bad performance with Windows 2012 guests

2015-04-30 Thread Martijn Grendelman


Hi,

Ever since our first Windows Server 2012 deployment on oVirt (3.4 back 
then, now 3.5.1), I have noticed that working on these VMs via RDP or on 
the console via VNC is noticeably slower than on Windows 2008 guests on 
the same oVirt environment.


Basic things like starting an application (even the Server Manager that 
get started automatically on login) take a very long time, sometimes 
minutes. Everything is just... slow.


We have recently deployed Microsoft Exchange on a Windows Server 2012 
guest on RHEV, and it doesn't perform well at all.


I haven't been able to find the cause for this slowness; CPU usage is 
not excessive and it doesn't seem I/O related. Moreover, other types of 
guests (Linux and even Windows 2008) do not have this problem.


We have 3 different environments:
- oVirt 3.5.1, on old Dell servers with Penryn Family CPUs with fairly 
slow storage on replicated GlusterFS, running CentOS 6.6
- oVirt 3.5.1, on modern 6-core SandyBridge servers with local storage 
via NFS, running CentOS 7.0)
- RHEV 3.4.4 on modern 10-core SandyBridge servers with an iSCSI SAN 
behind it, running on RHEV Hypervisor 6.5


All of these -very different- environments expose the same behaviour: 
Linux, Windows 2008 fast (or as fast as can be expected given the 
hardware), Windows 2012 painfully slow.


All Windows 2012 servers use VirtIO disk and network. I think all 
drivers are from the virtio-win-0.1-74 ISO.


Does anyone share this experience?
Any idea why this could happen and how it can be fixed?
Any other information I should share to get a better idea?

Btw, for the guests on the RHEV environment, we have a case with RedHat 
support, but that doesn't seem to lead to a quick solution, hence I'm 
writing here, too.


Thanks for any help.

Martijn Grendelman

Re: [ovirt-users] vm has paused due to unknown storage error

2014-12-18 Thread Martijn Grendelman

Hi,

On a new host, I am running into exactly the same scenario.

I have a host with an oVirt-managed GlusterFS volume (single brick on
local disk in distribute mode) on an XFS file system.

I think I have found the root cause, but I doubt I can fix it.

Around the time of the VMs going paused, there seemed to be a glusterfsd
restart:

So I thought I'd check /var/log/messages for potential sources of the

 Hi,
 
 On a new host, I am running into exactly the same scenario.
 
 I have a host with an oVirt-managed GlusterFS volume (single brick on
 local disk in distribute mode) on an XFS file system.
 
 I think I have found the root cause, but I doubt I can fix it.
 
 Around the time of the VMs going paused, there seemed to be a glusterfsd
 restart:

[ovirt-users] Live merge?

2014-11-12 Thread Martijn Grendelman

Hello,

The first thing the 3.5 release notes talk about is Live Merge of
snapshots and I've been dying to try that out.

Problem: I think my environment is completely up to date now, but the
Delete link on VM snapshots remains greyed out when the VM is running.

Going via Storage - Domain name - Disk Snapshots, clicking
Remove is possible  (UX inconsistency), but it stops with Error while
executing action: Cannot remove Disk Snapshot. At least one of the VMs
is not down.

What is needed, besides the following, to make live merge work?

- oVirt Engine Version: 3.5.0.1-1.el6
- Data Center Compatibility Version: 3.5
- Host OS: RHEL - 6 - 6.el6.centos.12.2
- KVM Version: 0.12.1.2 - 2.415.el6_5.7
- Libvirt Version: libvirt-0.10.2-46.el6_6.1
- VDSM version: vdsm-4.16.7-1.gitdb83943.el6
- Live Snapsnot Support: Active

VM has been restarted to make sure it's running on the latest qemu-kvm.

Please advise, thank you in advance.

[Users] Confused about Gluster usage

2014-02-18 Thread Martijn Grendelman

Hi,

I have been running oVirt 3.3.3 with a single node in a NFS type data
center. Now, I would like to set up a second node. Both nodes have
plenty of storage, but they're only connected to each other over 1 Gbit.
I'm running nodes on CentOS 6.5.

What I would like to accomplish is:

* use a Gluster-backed DATA domain on my existing NFS datacenter
* load balancing by even spread of VMs over the two nodes
* leveraging the speed of local storage, so running a VM over NFS to the
other node is undesireable

So I was thinking I want the storage to be replicated, so that I can
take a node down for maintenance without having to migrate all the
storage to another node.

I was thinking: GlusterFS.

But I am confused on how to set it up. I understand I cannot use the
libgfapi native integration due to dependency problems on CentOS. I have
set up a replicated Gluster volume manually.

How can I use my two nodes with this Gluster volume? What are the
necessary steps?

I did try a couple of things; most notably I was able to create a 2nd
data center with POSIX storage, and mount the Gluster volume there, but
that doesn't work for the first node.

Alternatively, it would also be fine to migrate all existing VMs to the
POSIX datacenter and then move the existing node from the old NFS data
center to the new POSIX data center. Is that possible without
exporting/importing all the VMs?

Cheers,
Martijn.

[Users] oVirt or RHEV ?

2014-02-06 Thread Martijn Grendelman

Hi,

This may be the wrong place to ask, but I'm looking for input to form an
opinion on an oVirt or RHEV question within my company.

I have been running oVirt for about 5 months now, and I'm quite
comfortable with its features and maintenance procedures. We are now
planning to build a private virtualization cluster for hosting clients'
applications as well as our own. Some people in the company are
questioning whether we should buy RHEV, but at this point, I can't see
the benefits.

Can anyone on this list shed a light on when RHEV might be a better
choice than oVirt? What are the benefits? The trade-offs?

I am looking for pragmatic, real-world things, not marketing mumbo
jumbo. That, I can get from redhat.com ;-)

Martijn.

 This is the same question as in RHEL or Fedora IMO: do you want the
 bleeding edge features and lower code stability and reliability, or do
 you want to have techsupport (and that means a real SLA and an
 escalation path up to the engineering, if need be) behind you, stable
 and reliable, well tested code, but less of the advanced features.

Thank you, this is what I thought.

It's still a hard decision. If the stability and testedness of RHEL is
anything to go by, it's not reassuring at all (although it may be better
than Fedora, I don't know), although I must say that RedHat support is
helpful at times.

Thanks again, I think I know enough :-)

Or not ;-)

Would it be possible (and doable) to migrate from oVirt to RHEV?

If we start out with oVirt, but after some time we decide that RHEV
would be a better fit after all, would it be possible to hook up
existing oVirt/VDSM hosts to a RHEV engine, or am I thinking way too
simple now?

[Users] Failing migration, inconsistent state

Hi,

I tried to migrate several VMs from one host to another. Two VMs
migrated without issues, but for one VM, the migration didn't happen. It
seems to be hanging, but the UI is now in an inconsistent state:

- The 'Tasks' tab reports 0 active tasks, but the last task (the
migration in question) is still reported as 'Executing'.
- The VM status is 'Up' (not migrating)
- 'Migrate' action is choosable from menu, while 'Cancel Migration' is
greyed out, but when I choose 'Migrate' and pick a host, I am told
'Cannot migrate VM. VM name is being migrated.'.

What is the best way to fix this?

[Users] VM with stateless snapshot won't start

Hi,

After maintenance on a host, I am trying to start a VM that has been
running statelessly for a while. It refuses to start and Engine logs the
following:

Should I submit a bug report for the poor English in this log line? ;-)

The 'Snapshots' tab for the VM doesn't show anything, but repeated
attempts to start the VM just show the same message in the log.

What can I do to start this VM?

After a restart of Engine, the message that I got was different,
something about no host being available with enough memory (which was
correct). So I guess an Engine restart fixed it, even though the initial
migration task still shows as unfinished in the Tasks panel.

Re: [Users] VM with stateless snapshot won't start

Hi,

 After maintenance on a host, I am trying to start a VM that has been
 running statelessly for a while. It refuses to start and Engine logs the

Re: [Users] VM with stateless snapshot won't start

Hello Dafna,

 If a failure happened and the stateless vm has shut down without delete 
 of the snapshot, the next time you will try to run it we will try to 
 delete the snapshot.
 from the engine log, it seems that there is a problem deleting the 
 snapshot because of quota.
 can you please try to disable the quota and try to run the vm again?

Quota were not enabled on this Data Center, I have never done anything
with quota on oVirt. The 'quota' table was empty, and the 'quota_id'
field on all VMs in the 'vm_static' table was NULL.

Since it was seemingly trying to set the quota_id for this particular VM
to '----', I manually inserted a record
into the quota table using this ID. After that, I was able to start te
VM. The quota_id field for the VM now contains a reference to this fake id.

 Please note that the first time you will run it after disabling the 
 quota, the snapshot should be deleted but the vm will still not start. 
 only after the snapshot is deleted you will be able to run the vm again.

Indeed, it took two attempts to start the VM.

Question: is it harmful to leave the fake quota record with id
'----' and the reference to it in the
vm_static table in place?

Cheers,
Martijn.

2013-12-02 Thread Martijn Grendelman

Blaster schreef op 30-11-2013 21:40:
 Contrary to my other post, which was more educational than practical, 
 yes, you generally would not back up app data via a hypervisor 
 snapshot.  Generally you would only backup the OS disk and perhaps the 
 application binaries.  This would be for quick restore of the OS and 
 app, so you don't have to spend hours reconfiguring your OS.  
 (especially Windows based OSes)
 
 I also do an IN OS backup as well, for individual file restores in the 
 instances you accidentally destroy something in /etc for example.

If your backups are 1) recent and 2) consistent (to a level that suits
you), what does it matter how you make them?

Re: [Users] backups

2013-11-27 Thread Martijn Grendelman

Hi Charles,

 How are you folks doing your hypervisor level backups?
 
 Under ESXi I used GhettoVCB which basically took a snap shot, copied the 
 disk image to another location, then deleted the snap.

Thank you for this hint, I didn't know about GhettoVCB and I'm
definately going to have a look at it.

 I haven't been able to find too much information on how this can be done 
 with ovirt.  I see discussions on the new backup API, but I'm not 
 interested in spending big bucks on an enterprise backup solution for a 
 home lab.
 
 Only discussion I saw on using snapshots for backups said don't do it 
 because the tools don't sync memory when the snapshots are taken.

The problem with snapshot-based backups is, that they are usually only
crash-consistent, meaning that they contain the state of a system's
disks as they would be if you pulled the power plug on a server. If you
restore a system from this type of backup, you would see file system
recovery happening at the first boot, and you risk data loss from -for
example- database servers.

The process that GhettoVCB uses according to your description above is
the same. Your backups are only crash-consistent.

If you need application-level consistency, you need a mechanism to
inform applications that a backup is going to take place (or rather: a
snapshot will be taken) and that they should place themselves in a
consistent state. For example: sync data to disk, flush transaction
logs, stuff like that. Microsoft Windows has VSS for that. For Linux,
there is no such thing (that I know of). Common practice for quiescing
database servers and such on Linux is making consistent SQL dumps in a
pre-backup job.

I my case, for most guests a crash-consistent backup, containing a
recent MySQL or PostgreSQL dump is sufficient. I use LVM snapshots (not
oVirt snapshots) for backups, and I use Rsync to transfer the data. I
have been experimenting with Virtsync [1], but I'm having a bit of
trouble with that, so for the moment, it's just Rsync.

Efficiently backing up sparse images with Rsync can be a bit of a
challenge (that's why Virtsync was created in the first place, IIRC),
but using '--sparse' on the inital backup and '--inplace' on subsequent
backups seems to do the trick.

[1] http://www.virtsync.com/

I hope this helps.

Cheers,
Martijn.

 The work-around for this is to SSH into the guest first, put the 
 database into backup mode(maybe run sync a time or two to flush out as 
 much from RAM as possible), take the snap shot, ssh back in to resume 
 the database, backup the snap, delete the snap.

Yes, for example for MySQL, you could

1. issue a FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK statement
2. create a snapshot
3. issue a UNLOCK TABLES statement

before starting a backup from the snapshot, to get a consistent backup
of the binary table space.

That's not an answer to the question.

Re: [Users] virt-io drivers for windows xp

2013-10-16 Thread Martijn Grendelman

Hi,

 I have been playing with the VirtIO drivers from mentioned ISO on
 Windows XP, but I experienced a lot of BSODs.

 In the end, I set NICs to emulate as rtl8139 and disks as IDE, and that
 seems to work.

 Many thanks,
 infact during creation of windows vm I have chosen the windows option in
 vm wizard. 
 I cannot guess that the wizard made a strange choice using virtio drivers
 when for windows is best to use ide and rtl.
 
 The choice is not strange given:
 1) availability of virtual floppy with virtio drivers
 2) dreadful performance of emulated devices compared to virtio ones
 
 The minor annoyance during installation (need to attach a floppy and do
 F6/Load Drivers) really pays off.

Like I said, Windows XP kept crashing a lot (reproducible crash on
shutdown and more random crashes during normal operation) with the
VirtIO drivers. I'm not sure if it was network or disk, but it didn't
work well, that's for sure. With the IDE/RTL8139 combination, XP has
been running stable for a few weeks now.

 You can use iso uploader, check man ovirt-iso-uploader for more info.

I have to apologize. I tried ovirt-iso-uploader before I wrote to the
list, and I got an error message that I couldn't immediately place. It
appeared I did in fact make a mistake in the command (missing ISO
domain). Upload succeeded just now. Sorry for wasting your time.

Cheers,
Martijn.

Re: [Users] VMs and volumes disappearing

Hi,

 I have recently set up an oVirt environment, I think in a pretty
 standard fashion, with engine 3.3 on one host, one oVirt host on a
 physical machine, both running CentOS 6.4, using NFS for all storage
 domains.
 
 Please provide rpm -qa on the ovirt rpms (ovirt engine).

martijn@ovirt:~ rpm -qa | grep ovirt
ovirt-log-collector-3.3.0-1.el6.noarch
ovirt-engine-3.3.0-1.el6.noarch

 Today I was playing around with snapshots, when I noticed that the
 Snapshots panel didn't show any of the snapshots I created, not even the
 'Current - Active VM' snapshot that all VMs have.
 
 Not sure why this has happened. How do you know that snapshot
 creation was completed? Did you look at the events tab? (Asking to be
 sure) engine.log will be quite helpful here.

I find engine.log somewhat hard to read, to be honest, and documentation
is hard to find, but I think I found some clues.

I tried to create 4 snapshots of a certain VM, 2 of which completed
normally and 2 of which failed:

Failed with VDSM error SNAPSHOT_FAILED and code 48

However, what I find most upsetting, is that the VMs that disappeared
were not the subject of my experiments. I was creating snapshots of a
single VM, and the VMs that disappeared were unrelated. As a matter of
fact, the VM I was experimenting with IS THE ONLY ONE that survived.

By the way, the Snapshots panel has been displaying snapshots correctly
for a while, but when I logged in this morning, it appeared empty again,
for all VMs.

Is there anything I can check to see what causes this?

 Not sure what to do, I decided to restart the ovirt-engine process.

 When I logged back on to the administrator panel, I was shocked to
 see 2endWith of my 4 VMs completely missing from the inventory. I
 haven't been able to find back a single trace of either machine,
 neither in the portal nor on disk. It seems like they never
 existed. The storage of both VMs seems to be erased from the data
 domain.

 Not sure why storage domain was erased. About Vms disappeared - there
 were previous discussions on that at users@ovirt.org. In a nutshell,
 due to a bug (that was already fixed) prior to the restart you might
 have had records at thetable that contained value of
 empty guid (a string in UUID format with only 0 and - ) at the
 vdsm_task_id_column. This means that the task is not associated with
 a real SPM task, and when the engine restarts, if for a given flow
 (let's say - snapshot creation) there are tasks with such
 vdsm_task_id,  the flow will end with failure. For some flows ,
 ending with failure means erasing the vm (for example - real failure
 of importing a vm). By the way, similar issue can probably occur with
 disks as well, as there are flows that run async tasks that deal with
 disks.

I think I have an idea about what happended now.

The 2 disappeared VMs have been imported into oVirt using virt-v2v. The
3rd one that's now missing a disk volume was not, but I have been
playing with storage migration in the past.

Yesterday's engine.log seems to suggest, that all of these tasks
(importing the 2 VMs and trying to move a volume) have been restarted
immediately after restarting Engine. After failure, the VMs and volume
were removed. It seems to fit the above description of the bug.

So...

What can I do to prevent this from happening again?

Should I periodically check the 'async_tasks' table for anomalies? Is
there a bugfix I can apply, or should I wait for a new release of oVirt?
If the latter, when is that expected to happen?

Thanks,
Martijn.

Re: [Users] VMs and volumes disappearing

Hello Yair,

Thank you for your answers, but I still have some questions left ;-)

 I find engine.log somewhat hard to read, to be honest, and documentation
 is hard to find, but I think I found some clues.
 
 Hi,
 I understand what you're saying about engine.log, when I asked for
 it, it was because I'm one of the maintainers of ovirt engine, so I
 thought I could give you a hand here, especially after reading your
 email and getting a sense that I saw a similar issue in the past.

If you want, I can send you my log. I wasn't sure if that's what you meant.

I just had the same problem again.
- Stopped oVirt engine
- Checked the 'async_tasks' table. It was empty!
- Started oVirt engine
- Same set of imported VMs as last time deleted!

I thought that lingering records from the 'async_tasks' table were to
blame, but apparently, that's not the case.

Can you tell me what I need to check/do/modify/update/delete before
restarting oVirt that will keep my VMs from being deleted? (Please see
below for a note on upgrading like you suggested)

 I think I have an idea about what happended now.

 The 2 disappeared VMs have been imported into oVirt using virt-v2v. The
 3rd one that's now missing a disk volume was not, but I have been
 playing with storage migration in the past.
 
 Then this is the reason, other users have complained about it at 
 users@ovirt.org

I have read the thread about disappearing VMs from August and indeed it
sounds like this might me the same problem.

 Upgrade I just talked with Ofer (CC'ed), our release engineer, and he
 said that all packages should be 3.3.0-4 (notice ovirt-engine is
 not) I hope this helps you out,

There are no updates, at least Yum doesn't give me any. I enabled the
beta channel just now, but that doesn't make a difference. 3.3.0-1 is
the latest version. What am I missing?

martijn@ovirt:~ sudo yum list all|grep ovirt-engine.noarch
ovirt-engine.noarch 3.3.0-1.el6@ovirt-beta

Best regards,
Martijn Grendelman

 make sure you dont have records at async_tasks with vdsm_task_id of
 empty guid - but i'm really not in favor of such hacks, this is a
 hack. I strongly suggest you solve upgrade issue (please communicate
 with ofer on this).

OK, I understand that, but for the record: 'async_tasks' was completely
empty before I started Engine, so this hack wouldn't have been of any use.


Cheers,
Martijn.
