 Ubuntu packaging scripts are already in oVirt guest agent upstream. I
 can build the package and put it to launchpad.net under my PPA. Once
 it's ready I'll reply this mail again, then you can use apt-get to
 install it. I think we can also setup an Ubuntu repository on
 ovirt.org
 for the users. I'm now working on VDSM packaging, in a near future we
 will have to find a place to host all the .deb packages. My PPA is
 just
 a temporary place, ovirt.org is a better place.
 great - highly appreciated.

 I've submitted ovirt-guest-agent to launchpad.net. This is how you can
 install it for a Ubuntu 1304(raring) guest.

 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:zhshzhou/vdsm-ubuntu
 sudo apt-get update
 sudo apt-get install ovirt-guest-agent

 After install, the ovirt-guest-agent daemon is automatically started.
 You can also control it using initctl start/status/stop. It If you have
 any problems, search /var/log/ovirt-guest-agent/ovirt-guest-agent.log
 for the clue. Feedback is welcome!

 Hi Zhou Zheng Sheng,

 would it be possible to create package (and repository on ppa) for
 Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and for Debian Wheezy? I tried raring packages in
 precise(LTS), I can install it with no problem, start it, But it does
 not show anything in oVirt VM screen. Here is the log:

 http://paste.fedoraproject.org/36992/

 Information from RHEL guests works well.

 Thank you.

 Sure. I think 12.04 LTS is a good release target. I can submit a package
 for it. I have a look at the exception you pasted. It looks like not
 related to Ubuntu, it might related to xml character filtering and
 unicode. I see some related patches in the git log. This is because I
 packaged the latest upstream. Maybe Vinzenz Feenstra can help to
 investigate the problem. May I know the agent version you used for RHEL
 guest? I can package the same version for Ubuntu 12.04.

 I am using version rhevm-guest-agent-common-1.0.7-12.el6ev.noarch on
 rhel 6.4 and on Fedora 19 ovirt-guest-agent-common-1.0.6-6.fc19.noarch.
 
 Thank you.
 

I've upload ovirt-guest-agent 1.0.7 for Precise to my ppa. You can get
it from https://launchpad.net/~zhshzhou/+archive/vdsm-ubuntu/+packages
You can wget the .deb file and gdebi it.

The actual version is a bit newer than 1.0.7 because the Ubuntu
packaging scripts are introduced after 1.0.7. The agent runs
successfully on my Ubuntu 1204 guest and reports IP and file system
information correctly.

Hi Joop,

can you please give a bit more information on the use case / how you
envision this?

current thinking around bare metal provisioning of hosts is to extend
the functionality around the foreman provider for this, but you may
have other suggestions?


I think Joop means to be able to add hosts (nodes) to a cluster by
adding their MAC address to the dhcp list for PXE boot into ovirt-node
and thus join the cluster. This would make it easy to add new physical
nodes without any spinning disks or other local storage requirements.


we started adding foreman integration in 3.3:
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/ForemanIntegration

adding ohad and oved for their thoughts on this.



I suppose this may not be easy with complex network connections (bonds
on mgmt network, mgmt network on a tagged vlan, etc), but it should be
possible if the management network interface is plain and physical.

/Simon

PS, Perhaps Joop can confirm this idea, we've talked about it IRL.

This isn't about provisioning with Foreman. Its about having the compute 
nodes NOT having any spinning disks. So the only way to start a node is 
to pxeboot it and then let it (re)connect with the engine. Then it will 
be identified by engine as either a new node or a reconnecting node and 
it will get its configuration from the engine. For reference: thats how 
VirtualIron works. It has a managment network, just like ovirt, and on 
that it runs a tftp and dhcp server. Nodes are plugged into the 
managment network, without disk, and then pxe booted after which they 
appear in the webui as new unconfigured nodes. You then can set various 
settings and upon rebooting the nodes will recieve these settings 
because it is recognised by its mac address. The advantage of this 
construct is that you can place a new server into a rack, cable it, 
power on and go back to you office where you'll find the new node 
waiting to be configured. No messing around with CDs to install an OS, 
not being in the datacenter for hours on end, just in and out.


Yes, disks are cheap but they brake down, need maintenance, means 
downtime and in general more admin time then when you don't have them. ( 
its a shame to have a raid1 of 2 1Tb disk just to install an OS of less 
then 10G)

Joop

Hello,


 How can I recover from this failed action? 


at least I found why I was stuck. I deleted the storage domain and it
was located under the root node as an unassigned storage domain.
After a final deletion I was able to add the NFS storage again. Nevertheless
the initial error still persists.

Thanks for starting this thread again.

 / etc.
 
 since a lot of things were added, and priorities usually change, I'd

 below[1] I've listed my understanding of what already went in from 
 previous survey requests (to various degrees of coverage).
 
 Thanks,
 Itamar
 
 [1] from the top 12
 V Allow disk resize


Great!


 V Integrate Nagios/Zabbix monitoring - via a ui plugin


Zabbix isn't working yet with my ui plugin (is there maybe another one
which integrates Zabbix?) - but it will be available in a future
release.
Btw, there will be a new version of the monitoring ui plugin with new
features available out at the end of this week...


 V Highly Available engine - via hosted engine[2]
 V Open vSwitch integration - via neutron integration
 X Allow cloning VMs without template


This is definitely one feature I would like to see.


 ? Enable hypervisor upgrade/updates through engine[3]


The next feature I would like to request.


 V Allow engine on an oVirt hosted VM - via hosted engine[2]
 V Enable guest configuration (root password, SSH keys, network) via
guest agent in engine - via cloud-init


Cool. Can this be done on oVirt-node as well or only on
CentOS/RHEL/Fedora hosts?


 X Integrate v2v into engine


Vote for this again :)


 ? Bond/extend ovirtmgmt with a second network for HA/increased
bandwidth[4]
 X Integrate scheduling of snapshots and VM export for backups in
engine[5]
 V Spice – support Google Chrome - via mime based launch


At the moment spice support is really a pain (especially on Windows as
the SpiceX.cab is missing). Great to hear that spice support has
improved and Chrome can be used as well!

 
 
 Other items mentioned in previous survey which should be covered by now:
 - Fix timeout when adding local host during all-in-one configuration
 - Fix engine set-up when SELinux is disabled
 - Provide packages for el6 (CentOS, Red Hat Enterprise Linux)
 - Allow multiple VMs to be deployed from the same template at the same
time
 - ISO domains on local/GlusterS


ISO and export domains on FC/iSCSI would be good to have as well.


 - Show IP addresses in Virtual Machines-Network Interfaces
 - OpenStack Quantum support (now called Neutron)
 - noVNC support
 - Support spice.html5 and websocket proxy
 - Add other guest OSes to list


Good to hear that other Linux distributions will be added as well.


 - Port oVirt guest agent to Ubuntu[6]
 - SLA - Allow resource time-sharing
 - Spice - Mac client (via mime based launch)
 - Spice - port XPI plug-in to Windows (not sure this will happen, but
mime based launch allows using firefox now)
 - Spice - client for Ubuntu/Debian (should be covered via mime based
launch)


Additional features I would like to see are:
- oVirt guest agent for Ubuntu/openSUSE/SLES/Debian *

*Ubuntu is already available thanks to Zhou Zheng Sheng

- Resource pools
At the moment only Quotas are available (which is great, btw), but in
some cases it's necessary to implement resource pools. E.g. Limit CPU,
Memory and Network for group of test vms, but give full resources to
production vms. Maybe this could be done with cgroups?
So e.g. I don't want to give a compile machine a full cpu core, but only
1 core with 500MHz or limit the bandwith to e.g. 10Mbit/s.

- Upload ISOs within the GUI to ISO domain

- Use existing share for ISO domain
When creating an ISO domain, oVirt creates it's own directory
structure with IDs. It would be nice if an existing share could be used
(e.g. an ISO share on NFS server which is used by other service, too)
without creating the structure with IDs. I know that the IDs are needed
internally but I think it should be possible to reuse an existing share.


Last but not least I want to thank all contributors of this project for
their great work so far!


Regards,
René


 
 
 [2] hosted engine is in active development, but not released yet.
 [3] host update is supported, but not for general yum update.
 [4] a lot of improvements were done in this space, but i'm not sure if
  they cover this exact use case
 [5] backup api is now being pushed to master, and orchestration of
  backups should probably happen via 3rd part backup vendors?
 [6] I'm not sure packaging exists yet, but ubuntu is covered for the
  basic functionality of the guest agent.

A new issue relating to vdsm failing to start on Fedora 19 hosts has 
been found [1].  This causes issues on oVirt Node as well as stock 
Fedora 19 systems.  A fix has been proposed and should be available

This will likely cause an additional day or 2 slip in the release due to

Just to summarize the meeting:

There is an issue with the EL6 repo missing spice-html5 (fixed)
There is an issue with current sdk (build coming today)
There is a bug with gluster-only installs (build coming today)

Due to these issues, we're delaying until Monday 09-September for the
release.

Mike


A new issue relating to vdsm failing to start on Fedora 19 hosts has
been found [1].  This causes issues on oVirt Node as well as stock
Fedora 19 systems.  A fix has been proposed and should be available
shortly.

This will likely cause an additional day or 2 slip in the release due to
critical people not being available this week.

Hi all

My name is Liviu Elama and I'm from New Zealand.
My day to day job is Unix/Linux technical consultant for an outsourcing
company here in NZ.
I have around 10 years of UNIX (Solaris, AIX, RHEL,SLES) , storage,
backup, virtualization (VCP) and I'm very interested in ovirt as an
alternative for VMware and the integration with glusterfs and
foreman/puppet.

Good to be here
Cheers

Re: [Users] All VMs disappeared

2013-09-05 Thread Andrew Lau
I ran into the same issue when importing VMs into oVirt 3.2, assigning them
permissions to a user such as admin would allow them to survive the reboot
and not disappear. In 3.3 that does not seem to be the case. I opened a BZ
but I think it got closed.

Just for reference how'd you empty the async_tasks?

Andrew.

 Hi Laszlo,

 If I understand correctly, this is what happens to your installation,
 the AddVmFromTemplate command goes to fail and engine tries to
 compensate, and upon successful compensation you get VM records
 removed from DB and storage cleaned up.


 just to be sure, please note, that the task actually completed
 successfully from my point of view. The new VM (direved from the template
 clone task) is fully usable and on the webadmin the task is shown as
 completed.

 So maybe at some point in time the engine does get the job status wrong
 and the problem begins...


  I need to look into this but I think it should be safe to remove this
 record while the engine is down. Make sure to make a backup if you
 try!


 OK, I did the following test:

 - created a new VM from my custom template (with cloned Disk)
 - waited for the job to complete
 - manually deleted the related DB entry from the table async_tasks
 - set host/node to maintenance
 - rebootet engine

 Result: The VM did NOT disappear! :-)

 I think somehow ovirt-engine does get the results of the job wrong, thus
 it does not recognize that the job completed *successfully* and does a
 retry after reboot (which fails horribly and leads to disappearing VMs).



 Thanks
 - Frank

[Users] Support for VAAI SCSI primitives in ovirt?

2013-09-05 Thread Paul Jansen
Hello.
I've been following the progress of VAAI support being added to the 
'target-core' framework in the Linux kernel.
Support for all 4 features did not make it into the recent 3.11 kernel release 
but is planned for 3.12.

There is some detail on VAAI (Vsphere APIs for Array Integration) here.
VAAI is obviously a VMware term, but the SCSI primitives it refers to are open.
From the above linked page: VAAI significantly enhances the integration of 
storage and servers by 
enabling seamless offload of locking and block operations onto the 
storage array.

It seems reasonable to assume that Fedora 20 (and probably Fedora 19 with a 
kernel update at some stage) will be using the 3.12 kernel and could be used to 
export iSCSI/FC targets to Ovirt.

VMware also provides VAAI integration for NAS datastores (via the installation 
of a vendor specific plugin into Vmware Vcenter) that also significantly 
improves performance for some operations.

From what I can make out from the VMware documentation the ability to use the 
VAAI offloads only applies to the upper tier licensed version of vcenter.  I 
think there is an opportunity for Ovirt to add support for this feature and 
make it stand out even against the freely licensed ESXi (which will be missing 
this feature).  With more people looking to Ovirt rather than getting started 
and potentially staying with VMware this is a good opportunity to gather market 
share.

What is the current status of support for these VAAI scsi primitives in Ovirt?  
Is there anything planned at the moment?
Regarding the VAAI NAS plugin feature that VMware now has - are there plans to 
help offload certain operations happening on NFS datastores?
For instance some sort of agent that can be installed on a Linux NFS server 
could allow oVirt to instruct the NFS server machine to perform an offloaded 
copy/clone operation rather than that process needing to be done over the wire.

Thanks,
Paul
