Re: [ovirt-users] vhostmd vdsm-hook

2016-04-20 Thread Arsène Gschwind
I've never tried with 2 disks but I will assume that the next free 
available disk will be used by the vdsm hook and the vm-dump-metrics cmd 
will check the kind of disk.

Let me know if you give a try

thanks,
Arsène

Thanks again but how does that work when a VM is configured to have

If I have a VM with a /dev/vda disk and a /dev/vdb disk, when I turn 
the vhostmd hook on the vm metric device gets created  as /dev/vdb and 
the original /dev/vdb disk gets bumped to /dev/vdc.


Is that expected behavior? Will that not cause problems?

Thanks,

Simon

The metric information are available on this additional disk /dev/vdb. 
You may install the package vm-dump-metrics and use the command 
vm-dump-metrics which will display all metrics in an xml format.

On the oVirt node I see the vhostmd running and see the following
entry in the qemu-kvm output:

drive

The part I wasn’t quite understanding was how this presented
itself on the VM but I now see a new disk device “/dev/vdb”. If I
cat the contents of /dev/vdb I now see the information that is
provided from the ovirt node, which is great news and very useful.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Simon,

You will need to have vhostmd running on the oVirt node and set
the "sap_agent" custom property for the vm as you may see on the
screenshot.
