Re: [ovirt-users] Live migration - quest VM stall

Our environment consists of: - FC20 hypervisor nodes - qemu 1.6.2 - OVirt 3.4.1 - Guest: Windows XP SP2 - VM Disks: Virtio IDE tested - SPICE / VNC: both tested - Balloon: With without tested - Cluster compatibility: 3.4 - CPU Nehalem After 2-10 live migrations the Windows XP guest is no longer responsive. First of all we thougth that it might be related to SPICE because we were no longer able to logon to the console. So we installed XP telnet server in the VM but that showed a similar behaviour: - The telnet welcome dialogue is always available (network seems ok) - Sometime after a live migration if you enter the password the telnet gives no response. In parallel the SPICE console allows to move open windows. But as soon as one clicks on the start the menu the system gives no response. Even after updating to qemu 2.0 with virt-preview respositories the behaviour stays the same. Looks like the system cannot access This really seems more either SPICE or QEMU related…. You can isolate the behavior to that single VM? Or single OS type(others work ok)? or it's happening for any other VM randomly? Thanks, michal Any ideas?

Hi,
I want to be able to install RPM packages (available in host system at some
path) to the guest VM and want this facility to be available as a tool.
I am thinking of having a gemu guest agent (qemu-ga) running inside guest VM.
I did not find any available command (virsh qemu-agent-command guest_vm
...) which can do the same.
why would you use a guest agent (which is primarily targeted for
virtualization-related tasks/coordination) rather than a generic remote
execution tools (like, well, plain ssh:)
The only benefit/difference with the guest agent is that it doesn't require a
network connection. Do you have such a requirement?
I am planning to implement a command in qemu guest agent, which I can invoke
from virsh like below.
virsh qemu-agent-command vm_01 \
'{execute:guest-rpm-install, \
arguments:{path:/usr/local/bin/ABC.rpm}}
I am able to pass arguments from host to guest VM but how am I supposed to
pass the whole RPM image from host to guest (which the guest agent can
receive and install)?
exactly;-) So are you trying to come up with something isolated from network
completely?
If not I'd go with a dedicated/different tool
Thanks,

This looks like a spurious error, as we can power on the same VM after
rebooting the hosts.
And also, the hosts do not really look maxed out (CPU usage is around
25%, memory around 50%), but no more vm’s can be powered on.

Re: [ovirt-users] difference between thin/depentend and clone/dependent vm virtual machine

On Hadoop I will put large workloads and this thin virtualization utilizes more resources than exists (shareable environment) that is, if I have a real physical necessity of 500gb for each hadoop host and my Thin Virtualization has 2TB on NFS, I can have only 4 virtual machines (500GB each), or less. For this case I believe clone virtual machine is the right choice. But in my environment it takes 1h30m to build one cloned virtual machine. if you plan to overcommit then go with thin. The drawback is that if you of course hit the physical limit the VMs will run out of space... if you plan to allocate 500GB each, consume all of it, never plan to grow then go with the clone….yes, it's going to take time to write all that stuff. With thin you need to do the same amount of writes, but gradually over time while you're allocating it it hope it helps Thanks, michal Am I correct ?

I know, I'm asking to much maybe, but we would be very happy :-) :-). So sketch: Mercury1 SPM Mercury 2 Mercury1 loses both fibre connections -- goes in non-operational and the VM goes in paused state and stays this way, until I manually reboot the host so it fences. What I would like is that when mercury 1 loses both fibre connections. He fences immediate so the VM's are moved also almost instantly... If this is possible... :-) Kind regards and thanks for all the help! Michal, is there a vdsm hook for vm moved to pause? if so, you could send KILL to it, and engine will identify vm was killed+HA, so it will be restarted, and no need to reboot the host, it will stay in non-operational until storage is fixed. you have to differentiate - if only the VMs would be paused, yes, you can do anything (also change the err reporting policy to not pause the VM) but if the host becomes non-operational then it simply doesn't work, vdsm got stuck somewhere (often in get blk device stats) proper power management config should fence it Thanks, michal 2014-04-08 14:26 GMT+02:00 Koen Vanoppen vanoppen.k...@gmail.com : Ok, Thanx already for all the help. I adapted some things for quicker respons: engine-config --get FenceQuietTimeBetweenOperationsInSec--180 engine-config --set FenceQuietTimeBetweenOperationsInSec=60 engine-config --get StorageDomainFalureTimeoutInMinutes--180 engine-config --set StorageDomainFalureTimeoutInMinutes=1 engine-config --get SpmCommandFailOverRetries--5 engine-config --set SpmCommandFailOverRetries engine-config --get SPMFailOverAttempts--3 engine-config --set SPMFailOverAttempts=1 engine-config --get NumberOfFailedRunsOnVds--3 engine-config --set NumberOfFailedRunsOnVds=1 engine-config --get vdsTimeout--180 engine-config --set vdsTimeout=30 engine-config --get VDSAttemptsToResetCount--2 engine-config --set VDSAttemptsToResetCount=1 engine-config --get TimeoutToResetVdsInSeconds--60 engine-config --set TimeoutToResetVdsInSeconds=30 Now the result of this is that when the VM is not running on the SPM that it will migrate before going in pause mode. But when we tried it, when the vm is running on the SPM, it get's in paused mode (for safety reasons, I know ;-) ). And stays there until the host gets MANUALLY fenced by rebooting it.

Template which was OK.
yes, the cluster needs to remain.
We're finally taking some steps to be able to remove/replace a Blank

I discussed this at #ovirt back those days and it was the only option to get

I didn't see logs @ the engine.log to be honest.
there you should see some specific error…I guess. If this is really related to

Re: [Users] TSC clocksource gets lost after live migration
Hi, this is more for the KVM folks I suppose…can you get the qemu process cmdline please? Thanks, michal On 3 Apr 2014, at 12:13, Markus Stockhausen wrote: Hello, we have an up to date ovirt 3.4 installation. Inside we are running SLES11 SP3 VMs (Kernel 3.0.76-0.11). After live migration of these VMs they all of a sudden do not react any longer and CPU usage of the VM goes to 100%. We identified kvm-clock source to be the culprit and therefore switched to another clocksource. We ended with hpet but are not happy with that as our inital goal was to use the more simple designed TSC clocksoure. The reason behind that is the question I have for you experts. Our hosts all have the constant_tsc CPU flag available. Just to mention these are not identical hosts. We have a mix of Xeon 5500 and 5600 machines. E.G. [root@colovn01 ~]# cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep constant_tsc | wc -l 8 When we start the VM the client sees TSC as available clocksource: colvm53:~ # cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/available_clocksource kvm-clock tsc hpet acpi_pm After the first live migration to another host that also has constant_tsc (see above) that flag is lost inside the VM. colvm53:~ # cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/available_clocksource kvm-clock hpet acpi_pm Any ideas?

Here’s my configuration: - pc001 : CentOS 6.5 minimal with VDSM (4.13.3-3.el6) - pc002 : CentOS 6.5 minimal with VDSM (4.13.3-3.el6) and ovirt-engine (3.3.3-2.el6) - pc003 : CentOS 6.5 with VDSM (4.13.3-3.el6) All these servers are in the same cluster and datacenter is using NFS for storage. Here’s my problem : I have one VM (called Debian) running on a specific host (pc003.lan). I try to migrate it to another host (pc001.lan) but the migration fails. As a result, the VM is still running on pc003 and the number of running VMs on this host is still the same; but I can see one more VM running on the host pc001. It does the same thing with other VMs (mavm1, mavm2, mavm3, Debian2….). At the end, the administration portal tells me I have 7VMs running on host pc001, 4 on pc002 and 3 on pc001; I have only 7 VMs , not 14. Hi, ...running - i.e. they are shown as the green triangle as if they are running, all 14 of them? From now, some errors keep showing up in the log (see attachment). It says that migrations are still running but I cannot cancel them in the administration portal and they never stop/succeed/fail. This problem occurred some time after I enabled quotas in the Datacenter but I don’t know if it’s related in any way. Might be. Does it disappear when you disable quota?:) If I reboot pc001, the number of running VM is reset to 0, but any attempt to migrate a VM to this host does the same thing again. Also, restarting the engine did not fix this issue. Does anyone have an idea about what’s happening ? I’m new with oVirt and I don’t know what to do to solve this. seems a destination creation issue. Please reproduce with one VM and get the logs from both source and destination host from that time. Thanks, michal Thanks for your help !

(on connection with the new ticket) In the VNC case this does not work. I do not know if its by design or just a bug/feature. Either Ovirt does not instruct libvirt to create a new VNC ticket with option disconnect all connected clients or this information is not correctly interpreted by qemu. well, sort of both. We keep the QEMU/libvirt default which is to honor client's request. Which is in case of novnc by default shared, other common clients like vncviewer default to disconnect I wonder if anyone is using the shared behavior or we should disallow it. Or make it optional, which is nice but as always comes with a price of development time. If you launch a client that initiates a shared connection to the console then existing connections will stay open. This magically works if you use the novnc client (as Sven explained). The only thing that prevents a concurrent access to the console with virt-viewer is the fact that it enforces a single VNC connection. yes So state is as follows: SPICE: disconnect happens during ticket creation It's on connection as well, it just can't be controlled (not that it matters:) Thanks, michal VNC: disconnect may happen during client connection You can check that behaviour if you associate a .VV file with a text editor. With SPICE the existing console connection is terminated just before the .VV file opens in the editor. With VNC the existing session stays open.

Yes I am sure its related to the upgrade. only upgrade, not a specific VM run? In other words it doesn't check the BIOS serial number since that's different on each hypervisor. In the application log of the VM we can see hardware has changed from previous boot and also we have a licensing system on another host that got in a stucked state because of the same reason - hardware has changed from previous boot. I see the following discussions ... changes in bios, or hardware device numbers, seem to trigger this (Citrix instances) http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX135542 http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX132220/ http://discussions.citrix.com/topic/313096-windows-activation-license-mak-used/#entry1674492 http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-windows_install/windows-7-activation-always-come-back-after/b26f8338-ae51-44d1-a0d9-b3a71643548a So the issue may in some cases be avoided, but in others, will need oVirt attention to not changing values refered to by the licensing validation code. Identifying all those test point valuess so they may be preserved, looks like something the upstream (commercial) vendor would not be very interesting in revealing as it would impact their revenue model, so it probably needs a set of 'reproducers' identified, and test cases written ... I think the best solution would be if Microsoft would send some patches :-) Ricky, would you open a bug so we can track this issue? oVirt tries to keep stable device addresses (e.g. pci slot) specifically to prevent this issue. The way it is done is that after running the VM we query libvirt for all the device addresses and on next run we provide libvirt with the same addresses to keep the devices from changing. This feature was not available in 3.0 so I see 2 options here: 1. this VM was not started (or was running) since 3.0 2. introduction of new virtual hardware caused a change in the device addresses for some reason (bug). in addition to stable PCI addresses, new QEMU/KVM release sometimes change the system hardware - emulated machine mode. or if it is really subtle, it can also be triggered by new devices (e.g. balloon, virtio-console (used to be in 3.0, removed in 3.1, optional in 3.3)) or simple upgrade of virtio drivers anyway, so what changes in devices you can see after upgrade?

I know that when I was on the same LAN as the oVirt box, I had to edit my local hosts file to point the proxy value to the oVirt box itself for the remote-viewer to connect to the Windows desktop. If that is indeed what is happening here, I think a better (and more universal) solution would be to have a VPN connection from the remote end user to the network where the oVirt/RHEV server is (site-to-site if the users are in an office and road warrior for remote individuals). Not sure how much of a performance hit that might make, though. Will need to do some testing. working. But just to confirm, if you open up console through chrome it should download a console.vv file rather than opening up remote-viewer natively, before you run it; open it with a text editor you'll see the proxy settings there. I took a look and the proxy settings are correct. The windows issue is probably just related to non proper drives installed.

Old virt-viewer. Where did you get it from?
It's built into current debian, I use it too. Does it support vv files?
Didn't know that. The same package also has 'remote-viewer', which works
for me with:
remote-viewer vnc://host:port
Yep. For some reason only remote-viewer works. No idea why
2. Using a VNC client to connect to the host with the password in the .vv
file just immediately disconnects it -- no error message.
For vv files I use the following script:
=
#!/bin/sh
LOG=$HOME/vv1.log
echo = $(date) $LOG
echo params $@ $LOG
vvfile=$1
host=$(sed -n 's/^host=\([a-zA-Z0-9-]*\).*/\1/p' $vvfile)

echo $port $LOG
sed -n 's/^password=\(.*\)/\1/p' $vvfile | vncviewer -autopass
${host}::${port}
sleep 2
/bin/rm -f $vvfile

Verified now that it works (I seldom use it because the default is spice
which works for me).
Remote-viewer should work the same for VNC. For cclient of choice yes, your
script is the one to use
Did you make it in 120s?
That was the main reason for this script :-)
Certificates?
Didn't bother with that.
Alon would be happy to hear that I'm sure:-D
I agree, in reality noone bothers.
It's a pretty invasive thing, IMHO. If I see that I need to install a browser
certificate for something, first thing I'm going to do is look for the
alternative. :/ It's worse than digging out my 2 factor auth token!!
I agree
alternative is to use the native client or plugin:)
you have 3 choices, unfortunately each needs some action/installation.
But hopefully one out of three should work for everyone
Thanks,

3. noVNC just gives me an empty popup with a gray background.
You didn't import the engine's CA, did you?
Any ideas?
The Console Downloads page has all the info to get it work, did you check
it
out? (linked from main landing page, display options, user portal...so you
shouldn't moss it;)
You refer to 'Console Client Resources', which links to [1]?
I had to do some manual work to get spice-xpi working on Debian as it's not
packaged for it (and iirc neither are some of the dependencies).
Yes. If you have some handy tips for Debian please feel free to update the

Re: [Users] oVirt 3.4 test day - results
On Jan 27, 2014, at 17:02 , Alexander Wels aw...@redhat.com wrote: Hi, I tested the following items during the test day and here are my results: 1. reboot VM functionality The related feature page is: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Guest_Reboot The feature page mentions a policy selection checkbox which I was unable to find in the web admin UI at all. I checked the patches that implement the feature and did not see the check box implementation. The patches did show me that all I need to use the feature was to install the guest agent on the guest. So for my test I installed a fedora guest, and I installed the guest agent on the guest. After about a minute after starting the guest, the reboot button was enabled and pressing it started the reboot sequence on the guest. I had a console open on the guest and it informed me that the admin had started the reboot process and the guest would be rebooted in a minute. I did not find a way to change the time it took for the reboot to happen. I did the same test with the REST api, with the same result. The reboot was scheduled for a minute after I issued the command. I did not find a way to change the time with the REST api either. I am guessing that is a future feature. indeed. The scope of the feature was cut down significantly. No customizations other than via vdsm.conf. We hope we'll get the original promises in 3.5:) The default 60 seconds delay time is for shutdown as well. The future customizations are to remove it. 2. Fix Control-Alt-Delete functionality in console options I had trouble getting spice to work in my test setup, but no issues with VNC. So I tested VNC. I checked the VM console options to make sure that 'Map ctrl-alt-del shortcut to ctrl+alt+end' was checked. Then I connected to a running VM with VNC. I pressed ctrl-+alt+end expected it to issue a ctrl-alt-del to the guest. Nothing happened. I pressed ctrl-alt-del and it properly issued ctrl-alt-del to the guest. I made sure there was no issue with my client by using the menu to issue a ctrl-alt-del to the guest which also resulted in the proper action on the guest. I opened a bug for this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1057763 I did this test on my Fedora machine, and the description mentions that certain OSes capture the ctrl-alt-del before sending it to the guest, Fedora is not one of those OSes, so maybe my test was not valid? it seems only the Windows version of virt-viewer supports the mapping. We'll grey it out for Linux clients then (or try to push the change to Linux versions as well, whichever can be done first) Thanks, michal 3. Show name of the template in General tab for a VM if the VM is deployed from template via clone allocation. This is a very straight forward test. I created a template from a VM. I named the template. Then created a VM from that template using clone allocation. I verified that the name of the template is now properly shown in the VM general sub tab. Works as expected. Overall I had issues getting engine installed due to the shmmax issue reported in other threads, and then I had a really hard time adding new hosts from a blank fedora minimum install. I was successful one out of three attempts, which I feel was probably an yum repository issue as I was getting conflicting python-cpopen issues causing VDSM to not start.

I don't unfortunately have logs going back that far. Looking at all 3 hosts uptime, the one with the least uptime is 21 days, the others are all over 40 days, so there definitely wasn't a host that rebooted on the 14th of Jan, would a network issue or Firewall issue also cause the error you've seen to look as if a host rebooted? There was a bonding mode change on the 14th of January, so perhaps this caused the issue? Can you tell me if you had a problem with the data domain as well or was it just the export domain? were you having any vm's exported/imported at that time? In any case - this is a bug. 2.) I think this was the same day that the bonding mode was changed on the host while the host was live (by mistake), and had SPM running on it. I haven't done any importing or exporting for a few years on this oVirt setup. As for the vm's - if the vm's are no longer in migrating state than please restart ovirt-engine service (looks like a cache issue) 3.)

Over the time, I have accumulated some notes on various things I did so to share with everyone who is interested in doing this. This complements the online doc in a way that might give me a complete picture in one place. However I need some clarifications as I might have forgotten to document certain steps or certain steps I did turn out to be not necessary in the end. It will be great if experts here can help me get the things straight. My setup is like: Browser (firefox 24.2 on RHEL6) ovirt-engine (3.3.2) ovirt-node (3.0.3) No direct network connectivity from the browser machine to the node machine. These are the major things I installed for spice-proxy to work: * On ovirt-engine: yum install spice-gtk, virt-viewer, spice-xpi These components are client components (what you call Browser machine). yum-install squid /etc/squid/squid.conf updates: acl localhost src browser IP addr #http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports I would rather allow CONNECT to specific Spice ports only 5634-6166: acl Spice_ports port 5634-6166 http_access denny CONNECT !Spice_ports http_access deny !Safe_ports http_port 3128 service squid restart make sure iptables allow 3128 engine-config -s SpiceProxyDefault= http://ovirt-engine-IP:3128 service ovirt-engine restart * On browser machine running firefox 24.2.0 on RHEL6 for running browser console plugin client yum install spice-xpi. spice-xpi should bring its dependencies virt-viewer - spice-gtk - etc. but If you do not wish to use the plugin launch type, you may install only virt-viewer (without spice-xpi) and use what I guess is called Native client launch type. make sure VM's console option is set to SPICE Are the above steps reasonable? any missing or redundant? Seems fine, just no need the client packages on the engine. Additional questions: 1. Will spice-proxy work with the Spice HTML5 client in the browser? Probably, but you would need to set the websocket proxy which is part of installation steps for engine as well (I believe). since it's a proxy as well I'd recommend to use it instead of squid, not in addition. By default it's installed on the engine host but it can be deployed anywhere else. 2. Is the spice-proxy architecture diagram like: browser - squid proxy - spice-proxy -- VM Browser plugin spice-xpi invokes start of Spice client (virt-viewer) which makes CONNECT to Host machine (where the VM is hosted) through the HTTP proxy (in your case squid). Client machine --- Squid --- Host (where the VM is hosted). 3. I didn't explicitly install any certs for the squid proxy. Is it automatically taken care of? No, no authentication to Squid is supported with Spice now. So If It is publicly visible proxy It's important to set careful proxy rules.

It is certainly not correct to fail on NPE on FE... I can imagine following options to fix it: - fix only on FE by logic like: if the VM has assigned an OS which is not known, consider it is other (e.g. 0) - brings up the question what if the user deletes the 0 from the property file mapping to Other seems to be fine If you delete it 0 well, bad luck;) It also means that with this mapping if you open a running VM and try to save it it may likely fail as it tries to update various fields. Well, bad luck again. I'd address this in bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1046809 Thanks, michal - fix this on engine side and do the magic (e.g. set the other if it is undefined) so the FE will never get an incorrectly assigned OS ID - have an undefined OS ID hardcoded in the engine which can not be deleted by the user and we can assign it when the actual does not exist - again, we can do this re-assignment on FE or engine - brings up the question what the ID should be and what if the user adds some custom item with this ID - do not transfer OS as ID and than some properties which maps to this IDs but real objects. So we could do instead of: AsyncDataProvider.hasSpiceSupport(getEntity().getOs(), getEntity().getVdsGroupCompatibilityVersion()) something like getEntity().getOs().hasSpiceSupport() So we could have an implementation of undefined os which could react appropriately. I like most the last option but at the same time it is quite a big refactoring...

But our goal is not just to use this websocket proxy in the engine and clicking the console link in webadmin. We want a setup like this: Host a: engine Host b: websocket proxy Host c: custom user portal with a link which opens the novnc connection (similar to the link in webadmin when I click console for a vm). how can we construct this link for host c? right, so what do you miss? perhaps the websocket proxy address, I don't think it's exposed via REST:/ Don't know.

My NFS ISO domain was attached to the other host node02, but the NFS mount wasn't accessible due to the iptables service being activated on boot once I had run all the OS updates a while back.

Thank you all for your assistance, and I'm sorry for wasting your time. good it's working for you I was also checking the internal error and it's http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/21700, which is fixed by now Thanks, michal Regards.
