Hello,I need a little bit of help to get my setup in a stable state... ;( I used to have this configuration on three physical machines: - engine - oVirt 3.2.1/FC18 - host1 - FC18 - host2 - FC18 - NAS with NFS data domains It all started with my mistake: upgrading the engine to FC19 without checking oVirt compatibility first. Of course, afterwards ovirt-engine wouldn't start anymore, but I had my VM's running on the two hosts and I thought I'd wait it out until 3.3 is released. Today my email server VM crashed and I cannot start it manually (tried variations of the qemu-kvm command line, created tap devices, tried a few other things without success). After a while, I bit the bullet and enabled the oVirt 3.3 repo, and did engine-upgrade. This seem to have worked fine except for a missing link for Java which I fixed, so now I can access the web admin portal. I can see the hosts and VM's that are running or stopped but I cannot start any VM, error message is: qemu-kvm: -drive file... Permissions denied I checked the path and everything is accessible on the host. Since I didn't have any other critical VM's on one of the host I made possibly the second mistake: downloaded the oVirt node ISO and reinstalled from scratch. First it wouldn't register due to a UUID collision (crappy motherboard manufacturers) but I was able to make it report a valid UUID and worked around that. When I try to Approve the node, it goes through most of the steps but fails with: 2013-08-28 07:37:26 DEBUG otopi.plugins.otopi.dialog.machine dialog.__logString:215 DIALOG:SEND 2013-08-28 07:37:26 DEBUG otopi.context context._executeMethod:119 Stage closeup METHOD otopi.plugins.ovirt_host_deploy.node.persist.Plugin._closeup 2013-08-28 07:37:26 DEBUG otopi.plugins.otopi.dialog.machine dialog.__logString:215 DIALOG:SEND 2013-08-28 07:37:26 DEBUG otopi.context context._executeMethod:133 method exception 2013-08-28 07:37:26 DEBUG otopi.plugins.otopi.dialog.machine dialog.__logString:215 DIALOG:SEND Traceback (most recent call last): 2013-08-28 07:37:26 DEBUG otopi.plugins.otopi.dialog.machine dialog.__logString:215 DIALOG:SEND File "/tmp/ovirt-S4pEN1vbH3/pythonlib/otopi/context.py", line 123, in _executeMethod 2013-08-28 07:37:26 DEBUG otopi.plugins.otopi.dialog.machine dialog.__logString:215 DIALOG:SEND method['method']() 2013-08-28 07:37:26 DEBUG otopi.plugins.otopi.dialog.machine dialog.__logString:215 DIALOG:SEND File "/tmp/ovirt-S4pEN1vbH3/otopi-plugins/ovirt-host-deploy/node/persist.py", line 51, in _closeup 2013-08-28 07:37:26 DEBUG otopi.plugins.otopi.dialog.machine dialog.__logString:215 DIALOG:SEND from ovirtnode import ovirtfunctions 2013-08-28 07:37:26 DEBUG otopi.plugins.otopi.dialog.machine dialog.__logString:215 DIALOG:SEND File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ovirtnode/ovirtfunctions.py", line 34, in <module> 2013-08-28 07:37:26 DEBUG otopi.plugins.otopi.dialog.machine dialog.__logString:215 DIALOG:SEND ImportError: could not import gobject (could not find _PyGObject_API object) I downgraded the node from 3.1.0-0.999.5.vdsm.fc19 to 3.0.0-5.1.6.vdsm.fc19 but ran into the same error. I noticed the Python scripts being run during the deployment come from ovirt-host-deploy.tar, but I don't know where that comes from. I renamed it and it was recreated. I checked the Python packages and the node does have pygobject2 v2.28.6 installed. Import gobject from Phyton doesn't report any errors and I even tried to run a modified persist.py on the node and it works just fine, imports the functions and persists a file I gave it as a parameter. At this point, I'm lost; the only thing I can think of would be to reinstall Fedora (FC19?) on the bad node and to try to re-add the node - but I have a guess I'll see the exact the same error. Or maybe enable the nightly repo?... Thank you. PS. I set up a temporary mail gateway so I don't lose incoming mail but it's getting a lot of spam, plus I don't have IMAP access to emails as that server was doing amavisd spam filtering and IMAP besides Postfix. A way to start the VM manually on the "good" host would definitely be a workable temporary solution. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
