Hello,
tried on a test environment where I have 3.6.0 on single CentOS 7.1

I have a CentOS 7.1 vm running.

On hypervisor I shutdown VM, put maintenance global and shutdown 
engine VM.

Can you try 7.2? I don’t remember exactly but it may be that in earlier guests 
it’s not automatic. Check some tips for onlining memory explicitly

5.2. How to online memory
 
Even if the memory is hot-added, it is not at ready-to-use state.
For using newly added memory, you have to "online" the memory block.
 
For onlining, you have to write "online" to the memory block's state file as:
 
% echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXXX/state

In my case I only got the line I wrote in previous e-mail when I click ok
in web gui to increase memory:
Dec  9 23:56:18 racclient1 kernel: init_memory_mapping: [mem
0x24000-0x2bfff]

See here the messages boot related lines for my guest, just before I tried
to increase memory, in case they can be useful:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwoPbcrMv8mvNnFmUDMybXpla1E/view?usp=sharing

BTW: Nathanaël did you increase by 256Mb multiples? I see this is a sort of
limitation... what was previous amount of ram of VM and the tried new
setting?

Yes, output of "free" command show the same amount of memory

It was only to verify that after shutdown/power on the changed setting

The window I got when I increased the amount of memory was the same as in a
previous test where I selected "Cancel", before libvirt update; see
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwoPbcrMv8mvbUw2VnpCMTNNQlU/view?usp=sharing

And I also commented about misleading information inside it: I didn't
clearly understand what would have been changed and what not, because I see
memory information in both parts.

The gui events have the same timestamp of the moment when I pressed ok.
After 2-3 minutes I did shutdown and power on of the VM and I only got the
down/up events...
I'm available to make further test you need.

Hello,
with your suggestions it worked as expected, without updating any packages
in VM 7.1 guest (I seemed to remember that the forced online operation
should not be necessary any more...):

Starting state with 10Gb of ram inside the VM
[root@racclient1 ~]# ll -d  /sys/devices/system/memory/memory* | wc -l
80

slots defined:
0 --> 23
32 --> 87

Increase from web gui memory from 10240 to 12288

I see this in messages as expected

Dec 10 12:59:32 racclient1 kernel: init_memory_mapping: [mem
0x2c000-0x33fff]

In /sys/devices/system/memory I see 16 new memoryxx directories (probably
each one addressing 128Mb...)

88
89
90
91
92
93
94
95
96
97
98
99
100
101
102
103

They have indeed been added but are offline, eg

latest previous one:
[root@racclient1 ~]# cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory87/state
online

first newly added one:
[root@racclient1 ~]# cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory88/state
offline

[root@racclient1 ~]# cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory87/online
1
[root@racclient1 ~]# cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory88/online
0

put online the new segments:
[root@racclient1 ~]# for i in $(seq 88 103)
> do
> echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory${i}/state
> done

Memory has been increased now, also from inside the OS.

[root@racclient1 ~]# free
  totalusedfree  shared  buff/cache
available
Mem:   12334428  222080119340448480  178304
 12019544


NOTE: no new entries after online memory, neither in messages file nor in
dmesg output.

Questions:
1) which component to bugzilla against for message confusing window of the
gui?
2) Initially I see that my VM (in webadmin gui) has 8Gb of defined memory
AND 8Gb of "Physical Memory Guaranteed".
After increasing memory, the second one remains the same and doesn't change
even after shutdown / Power on.
I think it could be an enhancement to ask the user if he/she wants to
change it too, instead of manually go through
Edit --> resource allocation --> memory allocation screen
If seen as a agreed enhancement, which components to bugzilla against for
RFE?

In my case I only got the line I wrote in previous e-mail when I click ok
in web gui to increase memory:
Dec  9 23:56:18 racclient1 kernel: init_memory_mapping: [mem
0x24000-0x2bfff]

See here the messages boot related lines for my guest, just before I tried
to increase memory, in case they can be useful:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwoPbcrMv8mvNnFmUDMybXpla1E/view?usp=sharing

BTW: Nathanaël did you increase by 256Mb multiples? I see this is a sort of
limitation... what was previous amount of ram of VM and the tried new
setting?

Yes the initial memory was set to 1024mb and I increased to 2048.

great!
with 7.2 it should be automatic. I think with Windows it works automatically as 
well.

doesn’t matter much, ovirt-engine, frontend.

yeah, these are two separate fields. The suggestion sounds reasonable to me,

In the mean time I tested how to make it automatic also in my CentOS 7.1
guest.

I temporarily added this rule
inside /lib/udev/rules.d/55-ovirt-guest-agent.rules (but it could have also
been a plain new file for that matter):

SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="add", TEST=="state", ATTR{state}=="offline",
ATTR{state}="online"

With this row the addition is automatically intercepted and applied from
the OS too.
Tested changing from 8Gb to 10Gb of ram.

I'm not an udev guru I took inspiration form the already set up file
for cpu adition in 40-redhat.rules file.. ;-)

So perhaps the only change in 7.2 is an addition like mine in
40-redhat.rules?

me neither, but yeah, it’s in 7.2 just like that:)

# cat /lib/udev/rules.d/40-redhat.rules
# do not edit this file, it will be overwritten on update

# CPU hotadd request
SUBSYSTEM=="cpu", ACTION=="add", TEST=="online", ATTR{online}=="0",

# Memory hotadd request
SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="add", ATTR{state}=="offline", ATTR{state}="online"

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="module", KERNEL=="bridge",

# load SCSI generic (sg) driver
SUBSYSTEM=="scsi", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="scsi_device", TEST!="[module/sg]",

I found this :

and it seems that el7.1 can't support the feature because of its
libvirt version (1.2.8) while the required one is 1.2.14.
I didn't test, but I guess F22 supports it.
Is there any chance that el7.2 would support it with a backported
libvirtd?


It does support it, but only hot-plug not hot-unplug.

Or will a dedicated libvirt rhev package be released so as the
downstream to support it (like qemu-kvm for live snapshot some
time ago)?
Documentation and limitation of the libvirt version for hot plug
memory are difficult to find in the ovirt wiki and more generally
on the web.
Maybe the feature has been postponed to a 3.6.z release?


I works with fedora and you can use it currently with this feature.


It works on centos too, qemu-kvm-ev 2.3 we distribute in ovirt repo

Hello, no qemu-kvm-ev 2.3 is not enough:

and

I get this error message each time I try to hot add memory :

I tried to restart vdsmd but it is the same, even on other hosts.

any help will be appreciated, thank you.

and

I get this error message each time I try to hot add memory :
Dec  9 11:18:00 fuji journal: unsupported configuration: unknown 
device type ‘memory'


was the VM started in a 3.6 cluster?
sure, on a full 3.6 cluster. I stopped/restarted them. I restarted vdsmd 
and libvirtd

Or how/when did you create it?
those vms have been created before uprading to 3.6, some of them from a 
blank template, other one based on a el7 template.


Thanks,
michal



I tried to restart vdsmd but it is the same, even on other hosts.

any help will be appreciated, thank you.

Hi all,

happens in reality when increasing memory on a running vm
with centos7.
I found this :
http://lists.ovirt.orgpipermail/kimchi-devel/2015-June/010714.html,
and it seems that el7.1 can't support the feature because of
its libvirt version (1.2.8) while the required one is 1.2.14.
I didn't test, but I guess F22 supports it.
Is there any chance that el7.2 would support it with a
backported libvirtd?


It does support it, but only hot-plug not hot-unplug.

Or will a dedicated libvirt rhev package be released so as
the downstream to support it (like qemu-kvm for live snapshot
some time ago)?
Documentation and limitation of the libvirt version for hot
plug memory are difficult to find in the ovirt wiki and more
generally on the web.
Maybe the feature has been postponed to a 3.6.z release?


I works with fedora and you can use it currently with this feature.


It works on centos too, qemu-kvm-ev 2.3 we distribute in ovirt repo

ok..and just for the sake of completeness - what is libvirt version 
exactly? If you’re running <1.2.14 then your initial comment make a 
lot of sense….
Yes, el7.2 has the right one (1.2.17) but even on 7.1 it should 
support it and if it doesn’t it’s our problem we should fix in ovirt 
(similarly as we solve qemu by shipping it ourselves)

libvirt-daemon-1.2.8-16.el7_1.5.x86_64
I'm really surprised that such a waited feature has not been yet tested 
by the community users with el7, so that nobody has reported the issue yet.



Or how/when did you create it?
those vms have been created before uprading to 3.6, some of them from 
a blank template, other one based on a el7 template.

Weird indeed. Well, RHEL 7.2 is out for more than a month and there is centos 
7.2 beta and perhaps rc as well, it's due very soon
Sandro, we should think about it - since we push qemu-kvm-ev we do not really 
enforce anyone to run on el7.2. We want to do that for various reasons as soon 
as possible. Maybe updating qemu-kvm-ev to require new 7.2 libvirt?

Re: [ovirt-users] hot plug memory in el7

2015-12-09 Thread Gianluca Cecchi
I too verified the problem with CentOS 7.1 Hypervisor and CentOS 7.1 VM

BTW: I find the below window somehow misleading when you try te resize the
memory of the vm

No idea. If it's libvirt issue, can you test
http://cbs.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=4726 ? it's from centos virt
sig, introduced for Xen but should work on kvm as well. or the 7.2 libvirt
from http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/cr/x86_64/Packages/.

Hello,
tried on a test environment where I have 3.6.0 on single CentOS 7.1
hypervisor configured with SelfHostedEngine
I have a CentOS 7.1 vm running.

On hypervisor I shutdown VM, put maintenance global and shutdown engine VM.
Then

ok..and just for the sake of completeness - what is libvirt version exactly? If 
you’re running <1.2.14 then your initial comment make a lot of sense….
Yes, el7.2 has the right one (1.2.17) but even on 7.1 it should support it and 
if it doesn’t it’s our problem we should fix in ovirt (similarly as we solve 
qemu by shipping it ourselves)

It does support it, but only hot-plug not hot-unplug.

[ovirt-users] hot plug memory in el7

2015-12-07 Thread Nathanaël Blanchet

Hi all,

I may miss something but according to 
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Hot_Plug_Memory, ovirt 3.6 was supposed to 
support the hot plug memory feature. Nothing happens in reality when 
increasing memory on a running vm with centos7.
I found this : 
http://lists.ovirt.orgpipermail/kimchi-devel/2015-June/010714.html, and 
it seems that el7.1 can't support the feature because of its libvirt 
version (1.2.8) while the required one is 1.2.14.

I didn't test, but I guess F22 supports it.
Is there any chance that el7.2 would support it with a backported libvirtd?
Or will a dedicated libvirt rhev package be released so as the 
downstream to support it (like qemu-kvm for live snapshot some time ago)?
Documentation and limitation of the libvirt version for hot plug memory 
are difficult to find in the ovirt wiki and more generally on the web.

Maybe the feature has been postponed to a 3.6.z release?
Thank you for your help
