[ovirt-users] Any simple way of migrating KVM machines to oVirt instances
Hi All, Thanks to the mailing list support and advice, now I have finished installing oVirt 4.1, I have created few virtual machines and it is working fine. Now I am thinking about migrating some virtual machines from vmware/KVM to ovirt. I am checking the docs at http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/virt/virt-v2v-integration/ for KVM to oVirt installation. Like to know is there any other simple way of migrating from KVM machines to oVirt instance, it will be great if I can get a url for the how to do Advice and support requested Thanks Joseph John ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Network should have been restored by Vdsm on its start up. However, in ovirt-3.5.0 there were cases where this has failed. Furthermore, we still have 1203422 vdsm should restore networks much earlier, to let net-dependent services start that is still on our TODO list. To understand precisely what happens on your host, we'd need your vdsm version, and as Didi asked - your {super,}vdsm.log and /var/log/message. However, to avoid the need of re-solving a solved bug, verify that you use vdsm-4.16.14 or later. ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

[ovirt-users] My feedback on network setting after installing OVirt
Hi All, Like to give my feedback about how the network interface behaved after OVirt I have used CentOS 6.6 64 bit, updated Ovirt stable from the repo Now after the installation, and configuration you get "ovirtmgmt" interface and "ovirtmgmt" interface gets the IP address and everything is fine . Now reboot it result is that when you give ifconfig , eth0 is not displayed and "ovirtmgmt" do not have IP address This stage solved by giving ifconfig eth0 up and restarting the network, it will give "ovirtmgmt" an IP now I tested it using different installation, with DHCP or manual configuration for eth0 , in both the case the same experience Giving my feedback, thanks ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Dear All, As for experimental purpose I have done OVirt installation on CentOS 6.6 and it was success. Till now before installation of OVirt, I used to make the eth0 IP permanent and then install Now I have need to take the machine to different places to demo and discuss about the installation, In this case I need to keep my eth0 on DHCP.
