[ovirt-users] Locked VHDD - Help To Unlock/Delete
Hi All, I've gone and made a (bad) mistake. When creating a new VM I accidentally selected the wrong Storage Domain for the VM's VHDD; a Storage Domain with less space available than the size of the new (thick provisioned) VHDD. So now I want to delete that VHDD (and possibly the accompanying VM) and start over. However, the VHDD is "Locked" and I can't figure out a way to delete it (or Unlock it, or delete the VM, or Unattach the VHDD, etc, etc, etc). I can't find anything online so hopefully someone here can help me out. For the record I have full Admin access to *all* physical and virtual resources and I don't mind doing things via CLI (which I suspect is what's going to be required). I'm also familia with SQL (MariaDB, MS-SQL) but not Postgres, so if this is going to required manipulating the oVirt DB then so-be-it, I can do that as well.

[ovirt-users] HE Storage Domain Path Config Setting - Where?
Hey Guys, Quick Q: In which file (on a Hosted-Engine or Hosted-Engine Host) is the configuration for the path to a Storage Domain kept - in particular, the "hosted-engine" Storage Domain? I've got something "funny" going on: the logs (as far as I can see) are reporting that 2 of my 3 HE-Hosts can't connect to the HE Storage Domain (but don't explain why), and the OVE GUI is reporting an "odd" (ie incorrect; non-existent) path to the HE Storage Domain. Via CLI I have confirmed that all three HE Hosts *can* reach (ie have the correct "findmnt" mappings) to the HE Storage Domain's actual file location, and I can't locate the "ghost" HE Storage Domain path or its config setting anywhere - so I don't even know if that's the issue, but I'd like to eliminate it from my trouble-shooting process. Anyway, if someone could get back to me, please, I'd really appreciate it.

[ovirt-users] VDSM Command DetachStorageDomainVDS Failed
Hi All,
So after having an oVirt cluster crash (no data loss (at this stage),
thankfully) and rebuilding from scratch, I'm trying to import the old Storage
Domains. I've been successful with three (automatically "detaching" from the
old, now non-existent hosts) but one is giving me the following error from the
hosted-engine GUI:
~~~
VDSM command DetachStorageDomainVDS failed: Cannot acquire host id:
('e311ddf1-7f2c-49ef-a618-050d9a2b947f', SanlockException(19, 'Sanlock
lockspace add failure', 'No such device'))
~~~
I am going to assume ("make an ass out for you and me") that I can run the
required command from the cli with a "-force" flag (I hope), so my Q is: What
is the command, because I can't seem to find it in any doco (most probably
because I'm old and my eyes are feeble :-) ).
Any help gratefully appreciated - FTR: that particular Storage Domain have a
bunch of VM Images on it which I'd rather import/recover than have to create
from scratch.
Cheers
Dulux-Oz

[ovirt-users] Deployment Error: Host is not up - Looking For Some Advice/Pointers
Hi All, So, on a fresh install on RL v9.3, we're getting a `Host is not up, please check logs, perhaps also on the engine machine` error. This comes up right after the 20min timeout (the 120sec * 10 one). No, the hosted-engine is not deployed (ie hosted-engine --check-deployed). Obviously I need to check the logs, but which ones in particular (the hosted-engine-setup logs, obviously, but which other ones), where are they if the hosted-engine is not running, and, in an effort to narrow down the volume of info to a more manageable level, what should I be looking for?

After reading all the bug reports I'm wondering, because that Bug no longer *seems* to be an issue (ie because of the python3-libnmstate now obsolescing nmstate-plugin-ovsdb) whether we can just update to the latest version of python3-libnmstate and so that part of the doco is now no-longer necessary?

[ovirt-users] iSCSI Storage Domain Issues - Please Help
Hi Guys & Gals, So I've been researching this issue online for a couple of days now and I can't seem to find a solution - so I'm hoping you kind people here can help. We're running oVirt (on Rocky 8, at the moment) with a iSCSI back-end provided by Ceph (Quincy, for the record). Everything from the Ceph-end looks AOK. However, none of the oVirt Hosts (and therefore the VMs) can connect to the Ceph iSCSI RBD Images (oVirt Storage Domains), and only one or two of the Hosts can log into the Ceph iSCSI Target - the others throw a "Failed to setup iSCSI subsystem" error. All of the existing iSCSI Storage Domains are in Maintenance mode, and when I try to do *anything* to them the logs spit out a "Storage domain does not exist:" message. I also cannot create a new iSCSI Storage Domain for a new Ceph pool - again, oVirt simply won't/can't see it, even though it clearly visable in the iSCSI section of the Ceph Dashboard (and in gwcli on the Ceph Nodes). All of this started happening after I ran an update of oVirt - including an "engine setup" with a full engine-vacuum. Nothing has changed on the Ceph-end. So I'm looking for help on 2 issues, which or may not be related: 1) Is there a way to "force" oVirt Hosts to log into iSCSI targets? This will mean all of the oVirt Hosts will be connected to all of the Ceph iSCSI Gateways. 2) I'm thinking that *somehow* the existing "Storage Domains" registered in oVirt have become orphaned, so they need to be "cleaned up" - is there a cli way to do this (I don't mind digging into SQL as I'm an old SQL engineer/admin from way back). Thoughts on how to do this - and if it should be done at all? Or should I simple detach the Storage Domain images from the relevant VMs and destroy the Storage Domains, recreate them (once I can get the oVirt Hosts to log back into the Ceph iSCSI Gateways), and then reattach the relevant images to the relevant VMs? I mean, after all, the data is good and available on the Ceph SAN, so there is only a little risk (as far as I can see) - but there are a *hell* of a lot of VMs to do to do this :-) Anyway, any and all help, suggestions, gotchas, etc, etc, etc, are welcome. :-) Cheers Dulux-Oz ___ 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/MG7DCZZOWX7M6UAHXZ6L3V2MYF67RIF5/

Hi Guys, Attempting to do a Cluster update via the oVirt GUI and I'm getting the following errors (taken from the logs) which I've confirmed via a straight `dnf update`: Problem 1: package ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-2.6.6-1.el8.noarch conflicts with ansible-core >= 2.13 provided by ansible-core-2.13.3-1.el8.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-2.6.6-1.el8.noarch - cannot install the best update candidate for package ansible-core-2.12.7-1.el8.x86_64 Problem 2: problem with installed package ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-2.6.6-1.el8.noarch - package ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-2.6.6-1.el8.noarch conflicts with ansible-core >= 2.13 provided by ansible-core-2.13.3-1.el8.x86_64 - package ovirt-ansible-collection-3.0.0-1.el8.noarch requires ansible-core >= 2.13.0, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install the best update candidate for package ovirt-ansible-collection-2.3.0-1.el8.noarch Is it OK to do a `dnf update --nobest` or a `dnf update --allowerasing` on each host, or is there some other solution that I'm missing?

[ovirt-users] Re: Please, Please Help - New oVirt Install/Deployment Failing - "Host is not up..."
Hi Shin, Yeah, all sorted, all working - even the stuff that I had crop-up since then. As it stands at the moment we've got a 3-node self-hosted oVirt Cluster using Gluster and iSCSI Storage provided by a hyper-converged Gluster Cluster (the same physical boxes ad the oVirt Hosts) and a 3-node Ceph Cluster using 3 iSCSI Gateways - a total of 6 servers if anyone is counting. There's about 140 TB of storage space, about 187 GB of VM-usable RAM, and about 190 VM-usable GFlops.

[ovirt-users] Re: oVirt/Ceph iSCSI Issues
Hi All, OK, so an update TL;DR: I got it all working. So it turns out that I had a typo in my /etc/multipath/conf.d/host.conf file, and because all three Ceph iSCSI Gateways are identical (except for IP, Hostname, etc) I did a basic copy-paste of the one file to all three Gateways. After discovering this (and fixing it), I have now attached my four LUNs to the oVirt Cluster and everything *seems* AOK, both from the oVirt-side and the Ceph-side, so I think we're all good and so we can mark this thread as solved. Thanks to everyone who had a hand it making suggestions and helping out - I really do appreciate it Cheers Dulux-Oz ___ 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/5AEJIYT5SZNZY4XXYTEKJQSIJNZIGB2G/
[ovirt-users] Re: oVirt/Ceph iSCSI Issues
Yes - as I said, I've got all three oVirt Hosts talking to all three Ceph iSCSI Gateways, and can see all four LUNs (via each of the three Gateways). Just to be 100% clear: yes, this means that all three oVirt Hosts are logged into the Ceph Cluster (via all three of the iSCSI Gateways). Yes, I believe that the way it works (but *please* do not take this as gospel) is that each iSCSI Gateway - and it is recommended that a Ceph Cluster have 2-4 of them) - plays the part of of the Target ie there is one Target with each of the 3 Gateways as "subordinate", as are the four LUNs and the three oVirt Initiators, which in turn show each LUN as subordinate to them, as well. Very confusing on initial look-see, but it sort of makes sense, I suppose. However, please see my next/other post in this thread - and thanks for the help. ___ 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/MGDYRCT6ZSSYXRUNEJ4ECDN4RTR7BDNG/
[ovirt-users] Re: oVirt/Ceph iSCSI Issues
Hi All, So, on further investigation/experimentation, it seems that each individual iSCSI Storage Domain is being created (there is visual evidence from watching the Ceph Monitoring Portal, and LVM volumes are being created on the selected LUN/Host) but it *appears* that, for some reason, vdsm is "timing out" (or, at least, that's my interpretation of what is happening) and thus resetting the Storage Domains back to the pre-creation state. So it appears that the fact that there is a previous LUN on the Ceph Pool/Disk is *not* my underlying issue. So my question is: How would it be if I adjusted the following settings (via engine-config), which I obtained from this thread: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/LRZLORSREVEYXJHD6GX5NZGV6NM7EL2Z/ - TimeoutToResetVdsInSeconds - VDSAttemptsToResetCount - VdsRecoveryTimeoutInMintues - VdsRefreshRate - vdsTimeout Anyone have any opinions (on this list and/or other settings)?

[ovirt-users] Re: oVirt/Ceph iSCSI Issues
Hi All, So I just tried to create an iSCSI Storage Domain again, and got the same results. I grabbed the relevant(?) part of the engine.log file and placed it into Dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/s/0kt9z21zkewvn3j/extract_engine.log?dl=0 I can see the ERRORs, but I can't figure out what's causing them, because I can't see anything wrong with the system. Would someone be so kind as to take a look and let me know what I'm missing, please? Also, if there's other logs I should be looking at could someone please let me know that as well - I had a root-around and I couldn't see anything else relevant, but then, I'm not one of the devs who knows the system inside and out.

[ovirt-users] Re: oVirt/Ceph iSCSI Issues
Hi Murlio, Thanks for that. Yes, iSCSI Target is configured with ACL Yes, all the Gateways have the same amount of sessions. Yes, I followed your 6 step-suggestion. So what happened is - and I won't go into all the boring details of how, why, and how - I discovered the remains of another iSCSI Target on the 2nd Gateway. Installing and using tergetcli I removed this old target, which allowed me to then remove and then re-attach the 2nd Gateway to the "real" target (using the Ceph GUI - resetting the gateways to be identical once again), and then ran through the 6-steps. I now have all three oVirt Hosts logged into all three Ceph iSCSI Gateways, with each of the four LUNs reporting connectivity to all three Gateways, etc. So that's the Gateways-connectivity issue resolved. However, I still have the other issue: I still come up with the "The following LUNs are already in use..." message and I still have the same results - ie log messages re: connectivity issues with the new (iSCSI) Storage domain briefly appearing and then being removed again (see 1st post in this thread). This happens with all four LUNs no matter which of the three Gateways I point oVirt Admin GUI at. (Yes, I tried this twelve times to cover the twelve possible combinations). So, anyone got any further ideas? :-) Cheers Dulux-Oz ___ 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/ULAQSCBLPSOKYMZIBXLTCFJNG5BO435H/

Sorry, should have updated this sooner: Issue resolved - turns out I had an old install hanging around (which I didn't know / had forgotten about) and the previous ovirtmgmt bridge was causing issues.

[ovirt-users] oVirt/Ceph iSCSI Issues
Hi All,
I've got some issues with connecting my oVirt Cluster to my Ceph Cluster via
iSCSI. There are two issues, and I don't know if one is causing the other, if
they are related at all, or if they are two separate, unrelated issues. Let me
explain.
The Situation
-
- I have a working three node Ceph Cluster (Ceph Quincy on Rocky Linux 8.6)
- The Ceph Cluster has four Storage Pools of between 4 and 8 TB each
- The Ceph Cluster has three iSCSI Gateways
- There is a single iSCSI Target on the Ceph Cluster
- The iSCSI Target has all three iSCSI Gateways attached
- The iSCSI Target has all four Storage Pools attached
- The four Storage Pools have been assigned LUNs 0-3
- I have set up (Discovery) CHAP Authorisation on the iSCSI Target
- I have a working three node self-hosted oVirt Cluster (oVirt v4.5.3 on Rocky
Linux 8.6)
- The oVirt Cluster has (in addition to the hosted_storage Storage Domain)
three GlusterFS Storage Domains
- I can ping all three Ceph Cluster Nodes to/from all three oVirt Hosts
- The iSCSI Target on the Ceph Cluster has all three oVirt Hosts Initiators
attached
- Each Initiator has all four Ceph Storage Pools attached
- I have set up CHAP Authorisation on the iSCSI Target's Initiators
- The Ceph Cluster Admin Portal reports that all three Initiators are
"logged_in"
- I have previous connected Ceph iSCSI LUNs to the oVirt Cluster successfully
(as an experiment), but had to remove and re-instate them for the "final"
version(?).
- The oVirt Admin Portal (ie HostedEngine) reports that Initiators are 1 & 2
(ie oVirt Hosts 1 & 2) are "logged_in" to all three iSCSI Gateways
- The oVirt Admin Portal reports that Initiator 3 (ie oVirt Host 3) is
"logged_in" to iSCSI Gateways 1 & 2
- I can "force" Initiator 3 to become "logged_in" to iSCSI Gateway 3, but when
I do this it is *not* persistent
- oVirt Hosts 1 & 2 can/have discovered all three iSCSI Gateways
- oVirt Hosts 1 & 2 can/have discovered all four LUNs/Targets on all three
iSCSI Gateways
- oVirt Host 3 can only discover 2 of the iSCSI Gateways
- For Target/LUN 0 oVirt Host 3 can only "see" the LUN provided by iSCSI
Gateway 1
- For Targets/LUNs 1-3 oVirt Host 3 can only "see" the LUNs provided by iSCSI
Gateways 1 & 2
- oVirt Host 3 can *not* "see" any of the Targets/LUNs provided by iSCSI
Gateway 3
- When I create a new oVirt Storage Domain for any of the four LUNs:
- I am presented with a message saying "The following LUNs are already in
use..."
- I am asked to "Approve operation" via a checkbox, which I do
- As I watch the oVirt Admin Portal I can see the new iSCSI Storage Domain
appear in the Storage Domain list, and then after a few minutes it is removed
- After those few minutes I am presented with this failure message: "Error
while executing action New SAN Storage Domain: Network error during
communication with the Host."
- I have looked in the engine.log and all I could find that was relevant (as
far as I know) was this:
~~~

~~~
I cannot see/detect any "communication issue" - but then again I'm not 100%
sure what I should be looking for
I have looked on-line for an answer, and apart from not being able to get past
Red Hat's "wall" to see the solutions that they have, all I could find that was
relevant was this:
https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/de...@ovirt.org/thread/AVLORQNOLJHRWMHTM4WCDRVP7VSIZBGR/
. If this *is* relevant then there is not enough context here for me to
proceed (ie/eg *where* (which host/vm) should that command be run?).
I also found (for a previous version of oVirt) notes about modifying the
Postgres DB manual to resolve a similar issue. While I am more than comfortable
doing this (I've been an SQL DBA for well over 20 years) this seems like asking
for trouble - at least until I hear back from the oVirt Devs that this is OK to
do - and of course, I'll need the relevant commands / locations /
authorisations to get into the DB.

[ovirt-users] 2nd Self-Hosted Engine Node Not Attached To "ovirtmgmt" Network
Hi All, So, I've got the Self-Hosted Engine up and running on the first Host, and everything *seems* to be working OK. I'm now attempting to use the Web UI to add a new ie 2nd (Self-Hosted Engine) Host to the cluster. Everything *seems* to go OK except the 2nd Host is left in a Non-Operational state (which I believe is "normal") awaiting the set up of the Host Networks. Its here where things go wrong: the 2nd Host does not have the ovirtmgmt Network attached (nor any of the others, for that matter). When I drag the ovirtmgmt Network to the 2nd Host's pre-existing (and working) bond interface the Engine works away for a while and then reports "Error while executing action HostSetupNetworks: Unexpected exception". I have located (but have not yet read) these logs from the 2nd Host: - agent.log - broker.log I have located (but have not yet read) these logs from the Engine: - engine.log - ovirt-host-deploy-ansible-20221124150742-ovirt_node_1.mynet.local-c26ca3fc-3c3f-4ee0-9562-fd7fd5066f8b.log - ovirt-host-deploy-ansible-20221124150742-ovirt_node_2.mynet.local-c26ca3fc-3c3f-4ee0-9562-fd7fd5066f8b.log Just to make things clear: - Both the Hosts are physically the same. Same brand/model of M/Board, NICS, HDDs, ect. Same layout, etc - The Web UI says that the 2nd Host's Bond is working AOK (as is the 1st Host) - I can ssh into the 2nd Host fine. So my questions are: 1) Which other logs should I be looking at? 2) Has anyone else struck this issue before (I had a look through the mail list archives, etc, and couldn't really find anything relevant - but as always, I may be mistaken)?

[ovirt-users]Re: Blog Post - Using Ceph Only Storage For oVirt Datacenter by Sandro Bonazzola – Wednesday 14 July 2021
So, a follow-up (now that I'm in an actual position to go ahead and implement this): In the Blog post it says to: ~~~ 1) Copy /etc/ceph directory from your ceph node to ovirt-engine host. 2) Change ownership of the files in /etc/ceph on the ovirt-engine host making them readable from the engine process: # chown ovirt /etc/ceph/* ~~~ I can discover the three Ceph iSCSI Gateways when I go to set up the storage, but I can't log into them (yes, I am using the correct CHAP username and p/word) The "ovirt" user does not exist on the host (pre- or post- engine install) - so my question is: Which user *should* own that folder once it is copied to the host? Or am I backing up the wrong tree? Anyone else using Ceph iSCSI Gateways with oVirt?

[ovirt-users] Re: Please, Please Help - New oVirt Install/Deployment Failing - "Host is not up..."
Actually, I just thought of another question: I've got console root access to the Engine VM: How hard is it to change the URL GUI "admin@local" password from there - and what is the process? I ask because this'll mean I won't have to do a re-install to reset the bad password I mentioned above.

[ovirt-users] Re: Please, Please Help - New oVirt Install/Deployment Failing - "Host is not up..."
***WOOHOO*** Finally - *FINALLY* - I've got a clean install! As I said in my last post, I stripped the three hosts back to bare metal and reinstalled *everything* from scratch, as per the oVirt doco - and late this afternoon the deployment script finished without any errors and I could pull up the Engine Web page. So all good (except see below) :-) Questions: - When logging in to the Engine URL for the first time, is the username "admin" or "admin@internal"? - Just to make it 100% clear in my own muddled mind: Step 5.4 (of the oVirt CLI Install doco) is performed on the Engine VM, isn't it, and *not* on the host, right? I'm having trouble logging in - but that's OK because I'm pretty sure I know what the issue is (bad password :-) ) so I'm going to tackle that one tomorrow. Thanks for the help everyone (include the OOB help) - if someone could please confirm these final(?) two questions that'd be great.

[ovirt-users] Re: Please, Please Help - New oVirt Install/Deployment Failing - "Host is not up..."
Hi All, Long story short, I just tried to do a `hosted-engine --deploy` on a brand, new "out-of-the-box box", following the oVirt doco *exactly*, and while I got past my "Host is not up" issue, but almost exactly afterwards got this in my console (I've included the couple of lines leading up to the "Host is no up" step): ~~~ [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Obtain SSO token using username/password credentials] [ INFO ] ok: [localhost] [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Wait for the host to be up] [ INFO ] ok: [localhost] [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Notify the user about a failure] [ INFO ] skipping: [localhost] [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Set host_id] [ INFO ] ok: [localhost] [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Collect error events from the Engine] [ INFO ] ok: [localhost] [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Generate the error message from the engine events] [ INFO ] ok: [localhost] [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Notify with error description] [ INFO ] ok: [localhost] [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Notify with generic error] [ INFO ] skipping: [localhost] [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Let the user connect to the bootstrap engine to manually fix host configuration] [ INFO ] ok: [localhost] [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : include_tasks] [ INFO ] ok: [localhost] [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Create temporary lock file] [ INFO ] changed: [localhost -> localhost] [ INFO ] TASK [ovirt.ovirt.hosted_engine_setup : Pause execution until /tmp/ansible.volt5pvv_he_setup_lock is removed, delete it once ready to proceed] ~~~ I didn't ask for script to pause, so I need to ask: Is this normal?

[ovirt-users] Re: Local (Deployment) VM Can't Reach "centos-ceph-pacific" Repo
Further follow up: I managed to get this sorted. It turns out that the "hosted-engine --deploy --4" command was causing the issue. By removing the "--4" flag (even though we don't use IPv6), and letting the deployment script complain about duel-stack environments (to which I had to answer "yes" to continue the deployment) the script then went through its process OK - even doing the dnf updates. Hope this helps someone in the future.

[ovirt-users] Re: Please, Please Help - New oVirt Install/Deployment Failing - "Host is not up..."
OK, so, with all the tooing-and-frowing things stand as follows (@03:15UTC 25-Oct-2022): - I managed to solve the "DNF Timeout" issue (see my post "Local (Deployment) VM Can't Reach "centos-ceph-pacific" Repo") and so simplified the deployment command to `hosted-engine --deploy`. Unfortunately this still results in a "Host is not up" error, with the logs as per before. - As mentioned elsewhere in this thread I uploaded the (previous) logs to Dropbox along with a couple of other relevant(?) files: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/eymwdy8hzn3sa7z/AACscSP2eaFfoiN-QzyeEVfaa?dl=0 - I followed the suggestion of ajude.pereira (see post in this thread) but this did not resolve the issue. - As per one of my other posts in this thread, digging into the logs further revealed this issue: "Failed to authenticate session with host 'ovirt_node_1.mynet.local': SSH authentication to 'root(a)ovirt_node_1.mynet.local' failed. Please verify provided credentials. Make sure key is authorized at host" - I also did a `hosted-engine --deploy --ansible-extra-vars=he_pause_host=true` (as per the suggestion of Konstantin - see post in this thread) and tried to work out why ssh wasn't working. I ssh'd into the deployment VM and then attempted to ssh back into the deployment host (ie `ssh root@ovirt_node_1.mynet.local`). While I could connect, I was asked for the root's password. I was under the impression that this was supposed to be a "password-less" operation. As I do not provide the root@ovirt_node_1.mynet.local password anywhere in the deployment script, I suspect that this is why I'm getting the "Host is not up" error. - To reiterate: the host'd sshd_config file is configured as per the oVirt documentation. So am I wrong in my understanding of the password-less ssh-nature of the situation and how the deployment script is supposed to work? Also, does *anyone* have any pointers, suggestions, or can otherwise help me out - thanks.

[ovirt-users] Re: Please, Please Help - New oVirt Install/Deployment Failing - "Host is not up..."
Question: Are the hosted-engine flags "--ansible-extra-vars=he_offline_deployment" & "--ansible-extra-vars=he_pause_host" mutually exclusive? The reason I ask is that when I run "hosted-engine --deploy --4 --ansible-extra-vars=he_offline_deployment=true --ansible-extra-vars=he_pause_host=true" the script runs into the "DNF Timeout" issue I mentioned in the `Local (Deployment) VM Can't Reach "centos-ceph-pacific" Repo`, and running "hosted-engine --deploy --4 --ansible-extra-vars=he_offline_deployment=true" doesn't encounter that issue. In other words, I can't do what you suggest (thank you for the suggestion, btw) because I either run into the "DNF Timeout" issue (and thus don't get anywhere near being able to log into the the engine), or I can't set "--ansible-extra-vars=he_pause_host" to true. Any ideas?

[ovirt-users] Re: Please, Please Help - New oVirt Install/Deployment Failing - "Host is not up..."
OK, so I think I've identified the issue. I found these lines in the engine.log file: 2022-10-20 17:27:36,785+11 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.hostdeploy.AddVdsCommand] (default task-1) [4a1c2931-f754-4020-8bf3-27455338ca6d] Failed to authenticate session with host 'ovirt_node_1.mynet.local': SSH authentication to 'root@ovirt_node_1.mynet.local' failed.

SSH authentication failed, verify authentication parameters are correct (Username/Password, public-key etc.) You may refer to the engine.log file for further details.] So my next set of questions: - I don't recall anywhere in the deployment script being asked to supply the root login credentials for ovirt_node_1.mynet.local (the host), so what have I missed? - I don't recall being asked to supply a ssh cert for logging into ovirt_node_1.mynet.local. The only ssh cert being asked about (and its marked as "Optional") is one to log into the deployed engine *after* it is deployed (Step 16 of "5.3. Deploying the self-hosted engine using the command line"). Am I missing something here? - In the Prerequisites section of 5.3 the doco mentions "The self-hosted engine setup script requires ssh public key access using 2048-bit RSA keys from the engine virtual machine to the root account of its bare metal host." and then talks about having various settings set in the host's sshd_config file. In the host's authoized_keys file there is an RSA key (not placed by me) which I assume the deployment script placed there. Again, what am I not understanding about this? I've checked the host's sshd_config file and all of the requirements listed in section 5.3 of the doco are there (the PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes is being picked up from the system-wide crypto policy, which are set to DEFAULT, which meets the specified 2048-bit RSA keys). I've included all the logs with the string "ERROR" in this DropBox folder, along with a couple of other relevant(?) files: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/eymwdy8hzn3sa7z/AACscSP2eaFfoiN-QzyeEVfaa?dl=0 Could someone please be kind enough to point out where things are going wrong?

[ovirt-users] Please, Please Help - New oVirt Install/Deployment Failing - "Host is not up..."
Hi Everyone,
Could someone please help me - I've been trying to do an install of oVirt for
*weeks* (including false starts and self-inflicted wounds/errors) and it is
still not working.
My setup:
- oVirt v4.5.3
- A brand new fresh vanilla install of RockyLinux 8.6 - all working AOK
- 2*NICs in a bond (802.3ad) with a couple of sub-Interfaces/VLANs - all
working AOK
- All relevant IPv4 Address in DNS with Reverse Lookups - all working AOK
- All relevant IPv4 Address in "/etc/hosts" file - all working AOK
- IPv6 (using "method=auto" in the interface config file) enabled on the
relevant sub-Interface/VLAN - I'm not using IPv6 on the network, only IPv4, but
I'm trying to cover all the bases.
- All relevant Ports (as per the oVirt documentation) set up on the firewall
- ie firewall-cmd --add-service={{ libvirt-tls | ovirt-imageio |
ovirt-vmconsole | vdsm }}
- All the relevant Repositories installed (ie RockyLinux BaseOS, AppStream, &
PowerTools, and the EPEL, plus the ones from the oVirt documentation)
I have followed the oVirt documentation (including the special
RHEL-instructions and RockyLinux-instructions) to the letter - no deviations,
no special settings, exactly as they are written.
All the dnf installs, etc, went off without a hitch, including the "dnf install
centos-release-ovirt45", "dnf install ovirt-engine-appliance", and "dnf install
ovirt-hosted-engine-setup" - no errors anywhere.
Here is the results of a "dnf repolist":
- appstreamRocky Linux 8 -

OpenStack Yoga Repository
- ovirt-45-upstream oVirt upstream for
CentOS Stream 8 - oVirt 4.5
- powertools Rocky Linux 8 -
PowerTools
So I kicked-off the oVirt deployment with: "hosted-engine --deploy --4
--ansible-extra-vars=he_offline_deployment=true".
I used "--ansible-extra-vars=he_offline_deployment=true" because without that
flag I was getting "DNF timout" issues (see my previous post `Local
(Deployment) VM Can't Reach "centos-ceph-pacific" Repo`).
I answer the defaults to all of questions the script asked, or entered the
deployment-relevant answers where appropriate. In doing this I double-checked
every answer before hitting . Everything progressed smoothly until the
deployment reached the "Wait for the host to be up" task... which then hung for
more than 30 minutes before failing.
From the ovirt-hosted-engine-setup... log file:
- 2022-10-20 17:54:26,285+1100 ERROR
otopi.ovirt_hosted_engine_setup.ansible_utils ansible_utils._process_output:113
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Host is not up,
please check logs, perhaps also on the engine machine"}
I checked the following log files and found all of the relevant ERROR lines,
then checked several 10s of proceeding and succeeding lines trying to determine
what was going wrong, but I could not determine anything.
- ovirt-hosted-engine-setup...
- ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-ansible-bootstrap_local_vm...
- ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-ansible-final_clean... - not really relevant, I
believe
I can include the log files (or the relevant parts of the log files) if people
want - but that are very large: several 100 kilobytes each.
I also googled "oVirt Host is not up" and found several entries, but after
reading them all the most relevant seems to be a thread from these mailing
list: `Install of RHV 4.4 failing - "Host is not up, please check logs, perhaps
also on the engine machine"` - but this seems to be talking about an upgrade
and I didn't gleam anything useful from it - I could, of course, be wrong about
that.
So my questions are:
- Where else should I be looking (ie other log files, etc, and possible where
to find them)?
- Does anyone have any idea why this isn't working?
- Does anyone have a work-around (including a completely manual process to get
things working - I don't mind working in the CLI with virsh,
[ovirt-users] Re: Local (Deployment) VM Can't Reach "centos-ceph-pacific" Repo
Follow Up: So after doing more research, etc, I've discovered the following: - Because the install failed the V-Bridge (virbr0 - 192.168.222.1) and the Local VM (HostedEngineLocal - 192.168.222.77) still exist on the Host. - SSHing into the Local VM I discovered that I could ping out to an ip address, but not to a hostname (I used mirrorlist.centos.org, as the initial error in this run was complaining that the Local VM couldn't download the centos-ceph-pacific meta-data). - The Local VM's /etc/resolv.conf file has a single entry pointing to the V-Bridge. - I did a "dig" to mirrorlist.centos.org and that command returned the correct ip addresses, etc, and used the V-Bridge to do it. HOWEVER, with some further experimentation (eg doing 2 pings to the same host in a row, as well as other experiments) the underlying issue *seems* to be that the dns requests are timing out - once the Local VM has resolved the hostname<=>ip address mapping everything *seems* to run OK. So, I'm wondering if any of the following solutions are viable (of course, I could be completely off-track): - Is there some way of adding the DNS servers that the deployment script asks about to the Local VM's /etc/resolv.conf file (ie bypass the V-Bridge when doing a DNS lookup to make the response time faster)? - There is a `timeout` setting (default: 30 sec) in dnf config file. Is there some way of changing this to a larger value on the Local VM. - Use the `--ansible-extra-vars=he_pause_host=true` (or similar) flag to pause the install, go into the Local VM and make one or both of the above changes. If *anyone* has any ideas I'd love to hear them.

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

[ovirt-users] Re: Network Interface Already In USe - Self-Hosted Install
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 Dulux-Oz ___ 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/FUBH7MVCYMSGLWXEXCVQIM6QHDJUM6GV/
[ovirt-users] Pre-Installing OpenVSwitch For oVirt Self-Hoster Install - Issues?
Hi All, Is anyone aware of any issues (ie "gotchas") with pre-installing OpenVSwitch in preparation for an oVirt Self-Hosted install? We're trying to work around an error we're getting with `hosted-engine --deploy` which spits out: `error: Failed to start network default\nerror: internal error: Network is already in use by interface bond1.a`. What we're thinking is if we pre-create the OVS Network (ie ovirtmgmt) then `hosted-engine --deploy` won't baulk and fail to install. We've been grinding away at this and other issues for several weeks now and we're getting pretty desperate at this stage, to the point that we're starting to seriously consider giving up on oVirt completely - which would be a shame because it seems to be made for the job we want to do, but if we can't get it installed, let along working, then what's the point? (Plus I hate the thought of all the wasted time and effort - but that may just be the "suck cost fallacy" at work). Anyway, if anyone has any insights we'd appreciate them.

[ovirt-users] Network Interface Already In USe - Self-Hosted Install
Hi Guys & Girls,
OK, so I am really, *really* starting to get fed up with this. I know this is
probably my fault, but even if it is then the oVirt documentation isn't helping
in any way (being... "less than clear").
What I would really like is instead of having to rely on the "black box" that
is Ansible, what I'd like is a simple set of clear cut instructions,
Step-By-Step, so that we actually *know* what was going on when attempting to
do a Self-Hosted install. After all, oVirt's "competition" doesn't make things
so difficult...
Now that I've got that on my chest, I'm trying to do a straight forward
Self-Hosted Install. I've followed the instructions in the oVirt doco pretty
much to the letter, and I'm still having problems.
My (pre-install) set-up:
- A freshly installed server (oVirt_Node_1) running Rocky Linux 8.6 with 3 NICs
- NIC_1, NIC_2, & NIC_3.
- There are three VLANs - VLAN_A (172.16.1.0/24), VLAN_B (172.16.2.0/24), &
VLAN_C (172.16.3.0/24).
- NIC_1 & NIC_2 are formed into a bond (bond_1).
- bond_1 is an 802.3ad bond.
- bond_1 has 2 sub-interfaces - bond_1.a & bond_1.b
- Interface bond_1.a in in VLAN_A.
- Interface bond_1.b is in VLAN_B.
- NIC_3 is sitting in VLAN_C.
- VLAN_A is the everyday "working" VLAN where the rest of the servers all sit
(ie DNS Servers, Local Repository Server, etc, etc, etc), and where the oVirt
Engine (OVE) will sit.
- VLAN B is for data throughput to and from the Ceph iSCSI Gateways in our Ceph
Storage Cluster. This is a dedicated isolated VLAN with no gateway (ie only the
oVirt Hosting Nodes and the Ceph iSCSI Gateways are on this VLAN).
- VLAN C is for OOB management traffic. This is a dedicated isolated VLAN with
no gateway.
Everything is working. Everything can ping properly back and forth within the
individual VLANs and VLAN_A can ping out to the Internet via its gateway
(172.16.1.1).
Because we don't require iSCSI connectivity for the OVE (its on a working local
Gluster TSP volume) the iSCSI hasn't *yet* been implemented.
After trying to do the install using our Local Repository Mirror (after
discovering and mirroring all the required repositories), I gave up on that
because for a "one-off" install it wasn't worth the time and effort it was
taking, especially when it "seems" that the Ansible playbook wants the
"original" repositories anyway - but that's another rant/issue.
So, I'm using all the original repositories as per the oVirt doco, including
the special instructions for Rocky Linux and RHEL-derivatives in general, and
using the defaults for the answers to the deployment script (except where there
are no defaults) - and now I've got the following error:
~~~

[ovirt-users] ovirtmgmt Bridge - Which NIC? - Advice Please
I need a quick piece of advice, please. I'm at setting up the oVirt Engine VM (ie doing a "hosted-engine --deploy") stage. The Host has 3 NICs. NIC_1 and NIC_2 are bonded (bond1) and run 2 VLANs (on bond1.1 and bond1.2). VLAN_1 is to be used as the "everyday connection VLAN for the VMs" (including the oVirt Engine VM - I think). VLAN_2 is *only* to be used for data traffic to-and-from our Ceph Cluster (ie via the Ceph iSCSI Gateway Nodes). NIC_3 (running VLAN_3) is to be used for oVirt-host-to-oVirt-host comms (including "local" Gluster traffic - yes, the (oVirt) hosts are running a couple of Gluster drives). My question is: Which interface should we use for the "ovirtmgmt" Bridge? I suspect it should be NIC_3 (VLAN_3), and I'm 99.999% sure it *shouldn't* be bond1.2 (VLAN_2), but it might be bond1.1 (VLAN_1), so I thought I'd better get peoples' input. You see, I'm not sure what the purpose of the "ovirtmgmt" bridge is. Is it for humans to talk to the oVirt Engine, or is it for the oVirt Engine to talk to the VMs (and hosts), or is it for some other purpose, or is it for some combination of the these? (I have read the doco on the ovirtmgmt bridge, and I'm still somewhat confused.) So, if someone wouldn't mind getting back to me about this, I'd appreciate it.

I agree. And, let me take back my previous reply, about updating the blog post. A blog post is, by definition, out-of-date, very soon after it's published. It's inside a blog, right? A kind of diary. You don't update your paper diary after you wrote some entry in it, right? Project/product Documentation, OTOH, is supposed/expected to be kept up-to-date over time. If a doc/guide is out-of-date, you'd naturally consider this a bug. Not so for a blog post. In oVirt, it's basically the same. Blog posts, here, are mainly POCs - demonstrations that something is doable. The fact that you do not find oVirt-on-Ceph in the main documentation is not a mistake - it's simply not considered (yet? See below) stable/supportable enough to enter that space. So I've been experimenting in a test environment (using Rocky Linux - initially v9 but now v8.6), tearing down and re-building (physical) boxes, and making notes for myself as I go. And, as may be implied from this and my other thread from today, the types of problems and issues I'm encountering are relatively trivial and easily answered **once I can get on to someone who knows** (those issues that aren't "self-inflicted", of course). And for what it is worth, I am extremely grateful for the help I've received today - thank you all! So if people are talking about doco, etc, then this might be worth considering as well (ie, how to go about doing what I've been doing). I'm reluctant to write this up myself for a number of reasons, including (but not limited to) the issue of maintainability, the fact that I'm not experienced enough with oVirt to hold myself out as an "expert", and because of an incident in the past where I ended up taking a lot of flack that wasn't really my fault (the old "once bitten, twice shy"). I understand very well. The fact is, that no-one else did, right? If no-one does, it will never happen. What you can do: - Create a ticket/bug/issue for tracking this. Despite what perhaps some people might think, this isn't useless, even if you are not going to handle it yourself, nor know about anyone that is. - Include there what you already know and had to do. This most definitely does not put you in any position of authority - I think no-one will expect you to keep a comment in an issue up-to-date. It's less authoritative than a blog post, right? Just a comment. But it's extremely helpful, for both people that want to do what you want to do, those that want to actually handle the issue (by writing docs), and those wanting to review the eventual doc patches. - It also makes it much easier to find, link, etc., so will likely get more traction than a thread like current. I'd like to use this opportunity to add some more thoughts, at-most-tangentially related to the current thread. Speaking only for myself, not for Red Hat. Red Hat already decided that the future lies in containers, and people that still need VMs for their legacy stuff (as considered by Red Hat) should handle that inside OpenShift using CNV. See also e.g. [1] for what might eventually, when it matures enough, be a more-or-less replacement for oVirt's functionality, although definitely not for oVirt's behavior. This means, in particular, that if Red Hat decides to support so-called Hyper Converged Infrastructure (HCI) setups (or it might already have done, no idea), it will be based on OpenShift/CNV + Ceph, not RHV. AFAIU, IMHO, etc. But this does not mean that oVirt-on-Ceph HCI is impossible - it means that for this to happen, someone else should do most of the work. We (as in, Red Hat employees working on oVirt) will definitely be able to help if/where needed, but can't be expected to do the bulk of the work. I personally still think that oVirt is most probably the best small-/medium-scale Open Source clustered vi

[ovirt-users]Blog Post - Using Ceph Only Storage For oVirt Datacenter by Sandro Bonazzola – Wednesday 14 July 2021
Hi All, In the above mentioned blog post (https://blogs.ovirt.org/2021/07/using-ceph-only-storage-for-ovirt-datacenter/) in mentions the line: "Follow oVirt documentation for setting up Cinderlib" with a link to this URL: https://ovirt.org/documentation/installing_ovirt_as_a_self-hosted_engine_using_the_cockpit_web_interface/index.html#Set_up_Cinderlib This link is broken/obsolete/no longer available, so my question(s) is/are: Where can I obtain this information? Is there a new URL? Are these instructions no-longer required with the new oVirt v4.5.X? Can someone who has these instructions post/email them, please?

[ovirt-users] Failure Of Latest oVirt Installation - Missing Packages
Hi All, This is all on a Rocky Linux 8.6 box, as a CLI oVirt self-hosted engine install. I have followed all of the instructions (include the special RHEL and derivatives and Rocky Linux instructions) in the oVirt documentation. So, I'm attempting to install the ovirt-hosted-engine-setup rpm (ie dnf -y install ovirt-hosted-engine-setup), and I'm getting failures involving the following packages (ie the following packages cannot be found): - collectd >= 5.12.0-7 - collectd-disk >= 5.12.0-7 - collectd-write_http >= 5.12.0-7 - collectd-write_syslog >= 5.12.0-7 - collectd-netlink >= 5.12.0-7 - collectd-virt >= 5.12.0-7 - python3-os-brick The full dnf error message is: ~~~ Error: Problem: package ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-2.6.5-1.el8.noarch requires ovirt-host >= 4.5.0, but none of the providers can be installed - package ovirt-host-4.5.0-3.el8.x86_64 requires ovirt-host-dependencies = 4.5.0-3.el8, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install the best candidate for the job - nothing provides collectd >= 5.12.0-7 needed by ovirt-host-dependencies-4.5.0-3.el8.x86_64 - nothing provides collectd-disk >= 5.12.0-7 needed by ovirt-host-dependencies-4.5.0-3.el8.x86_64 - nothing provides collectd-write_http >= 5.12.0-7 needed by ovirt-host-dependencies-4.5.0-3.el8.x86_64 - nothing provides collectd-write_syslog >= 5.12.0-7 needed by ovirt-host-dependencies-4.5.0-3.el8.x86_64 - nothing provides collectd-netlink >= 5.12.0-7 needed by ovirt-host-dependencies-4.5.0-3.el8.x86_64 - nothing provides collectd-virt >= 5.12.0-7 needed by ovirt-host-dependencies-4.5.0-3.el8.x86_64 - nothing provides python3-os-brick needed by ovirt-host-dependencies-4.5.0-3.el8.x86_64 ~~~ Doing a dnf with --nobest produces similar results ie: ~~~ Error: Problem: conflicting requests - package ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-2.6.3-1.el8.noarch requires ovirt-host >= 4.5.0, but none of the providers can be installed - package ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-2.6.4-1.el8.noarch requires ovirt-host >= 4.5.0, but none of the providers can be installed - package ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-2.6.5-1.el8.noarch requires ovirt-host >= 4.5.0, but none of the providers can be installed etc ~~~ In all of the repos (& mirrors) I've looked at the latest version of collectd* (for EL8) is 5.9.0-5, and I can't locate python3-os-block at all. pkgs.org says that even the version of collectd* in the Centos 8 Repos is v5.9.0-5 in the EPEL EL8 repo. According to rpmfind.net there is a 5.12.0-23 version of collectd* in the EPEL EL9 repo, but I read somewhere that oVirt is not-production-ready on EL9, so I don't have the EPEL EL9 repo "available". pkgs.org says that the only versions it knows about for pyton3-os-brick are for Debian and Ubuntu, and rpmfind.net doesn't list it at all (which makes sense if there are only versions from Debia-based distros). Could someone please point me towards an EL8 repo where I can get the required packages, or, if I'm being totally stupid, what I'm doing wrong?
