Sorry for the lack of knowledge in advance. Is it possible to create a VLAN for WAN traffic, to separate it from the internal network? I'd imagine so. It was a automated and simple process when use XenServer. I'm trying to switch from Xen to oVirt and when trying to recreate this, I'm unable to ping out from the VM. This leads me to believe the VLAN was created incorrectly. I created ifcfg-br1 on the host and through the engine, created the logical network with VLAN tagging 20. Does the interface, ifcfg-br1, require a public IP, any IP address, no ip address? (Sorry, never created a VLAN for WAN traffic as it was automated in XenServer) Assigning an IP-address to a VM network in oVirt is _not_ mandatory, it is only needed for management networks (ovirtmgmnt, display, storage) where the _hosts_ need connectivity to resources on that network. Is this a tagged or an untagged vlan? (an untagged vlan means only one vlan per physical interface andneeds no extra configuration on the OS side) Which other (physical) interfaces are in your br1 interface? Are the (tagged) vlans assigned to this interface? A vlan interface on linux looks like this: eth0.20 where eth0 is the physical interface on which tagged vlans are configured and 20 is the number of one of those interfaces. In the case of an oVirt VM network the physical interface is bridged (and sometimes bonded) so the interface configuration looks like this: br1.20. The normal route for configuring a new network in ovirt is to configure it in the networks tab (as a VM network) and then assigin this network to physical- or bonded interfaces on all the hosts in your cluster. So the steps I have taken to create this. 1. Assign the 2nd physical interface a static IP. 2. In oVirt Engine, go to Data Centers and select Logical Networks then New. For name, something like public_interface, check Enable VLAN tagging and for the field entry, 20. Leave defaults, such as VM network checked. 3. Go to Hosts then Network Interfaces then Setup Host Networks. Drag public_interface to the physical interface, em2. Save configuration. 4. This shows as public_interface (VLAN20) with the green box VM next to it. 5. A fresh installed VM of CentOS6.5 is used with nic1 as public_interface. 6. After configuring the interface eth0 with a public IP, I am unable to ping any public IP or hostname. Hopefully there's a flaw in the action I took to configure it and it's a simple fix. was this resolved? Thank you, Neil From there I have the VM installed and configured with a public IP address, however, only get Destination Host Unreachable, meaning it has no route out. I am banging my head on the desk trying to figure this out. Can anyone give me any assistance?

(well, more of a rant, but hopefully it will be a good UX tale, and may even be entertaining.) Had one of the groups come to me at work this week and request a OpenStack setup. When I sat down and discussed their needs, it turns out that they really only need a multi-hypervisor setup where they can spin up VMs for their research projects. The VMs should be fairly long-lived, and will have persistent storage. Their other request is that the storage should be local on the hypervisor nodes (they plan to use Intel servers with 8-10 2TB drives for VM storage on each node.) They desire this in order to keep the VM I/O local - they do not have a SAN of any sort anyhow, and they do not care about live migration, etc @Will If the installation ends, either with or without error, it will give you a log location. Upload the log to a paste.bin and mail the link. @Gabi, There should be more info in either the vdsm.log on the SPM server or in the engine.log on the engine server, see above for lettings us know what the error is. Having installed oVirt, probably dozens of times, I have some guidelines: - temporarily disable firewalld/iptables (if all works, enable should still work, scripts with rules are generated and location is given) - make selinux permissive either via setenforce 0 (until next boot) or via /etc/selinux/config ( survives reboots), dont disable it! - make sure fqdn work in both directions between engine and host(s) (either using /etc/hosts or DNS) - make sure NetworkManager is disabled and network enabled Joop ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

[Users] [QE] oVirt 3.4.0 alpha / beta status
Hi, oVirt 3.4.0 alpha has been released and is actually on QA. An issue has been found in VDSM so we have updated the packages in alpha repositories for Fedora. We had an issue with nightly build for EL6 packages yesterday so EL6 repository is not yet updated. We'll try to sync it today, I'm sorry for the inconvenient. We'll start composing oVirt 3.4.0 beta on 2014-01-20 14:00 UTC from 3.4 branches. The bug tracker [1] shows the following bugs blocking the release: Whiteboard Bug ID Summary gluster 1038988 Gluster brick sync does not work when host has multiple interfaces integration 1054080 gracefully warn about unsupported upgrade from legacy releases network 1054195 [NetworkLabels] Attaching two labeled networks to a cluster result in failure of the latter There are still 280 bugs [2] targeted to 3.4.0. Excluding node and documentation bugs we still have 237 bugs [3] targeted to 3.4.0. Please review them as soon as possible. Maintainers: - Please remember to rebuild your packages before 2014-01-21 12:00 UTC if you want them to be included in 3.4.0 beta. - Please add the bugs to the tracker if you think that 3.4.0 should not be released without them fixed. - Please provide ETA on blockers bugs - Please update the target to 3.4.1 or any next release for bugs that won't be in 3.4.0: it will ease gathering the blocking bugs for next releases. - Please fill release notes, the page has been created here [4] - Please update http://www.ovirt.org/OVirt_3.4_TestDay before 2014-01-23 For those who want to help testing the bugs, I suggest to add yourself as QA contact for the bug.

Re: [Users] connecting to oVirt/RHEV VMs through proxy and the oVirt API
On 01/17/2014 12:30 AM, i iordanov wrote: Hello, My apologies for cross-posting, but this discussion concerns both mailing lists, I think. In Opaque, I recently started setting the proxy property of SpiceSession from a console file, as is done in remote-viewer, in order to support installations where the nodes are not visible from the point of view of the client. However, then I remembered that I have not seen the proxy property being available through the oVirt/RHEV API. I looked at the latest remote-viewer code, and I looked through the oVirt/RHEV API documentation, and indeed, I see no way to get proxy information other than through the console.vv file. If I am correct, then this means that both Opaque and remote-viewer cannot connect to VMs behind a proxy unless a console.vv file is used, which also means that since console.vv files are unobtainable through the User Portal on mobile devices, mobile devices effectively cannot at all connect to such VMs if the user is not an Administrator. Would it be possible to expose the proxy parameter through the API? I couldn't find a bug opened about this, but it doesn't mean it isn't there :). Thanks! iordan You are right. Obtaining the global proxy setting is currently impossible in the API. There is no bug requesting it, as far as I know. Can you open a new one? -- Dirección Comercial: C/Jose Bardasano Baos, 9, Edif.

The Optimize for Virt action in oVirt ensures that these optimizations are enabled. Hence, even with FUSE the performance for VM image storage would be somewhere between the worst and best cases. thanks in advance for clarifications and possible roadmaps...

Re: [Users] New user to oVirt, and I haz a sad so far...
Hi Joop, 1. I did disabled firewalld/iptbles on both nodes and engines. 2. Disabling selinux: when setting to permissive via /etc/selinux/config (and of course unpersist/persist them - /config/etc) doesn't work ( as write this I've just reboot one node with the above modification and when I try to ssh node I get connection closed by... - of course selinux is enabled; after setenforce 0 ssh is OK.The only way I manage to diasble selinux was mount -o.rw,remount /run/initramfs/live edit grub.cfg and add selinux=0 to kernel line 3. one strange issue: after I reboot nodes, trying to ssh raise ssh warning WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! so I have to remove host entry from .ssh/.known_host in order to connect 4. I am about to check name resolution 5.I have glusterfs also on both nodes.

Re: [Users] New user to oVirt, and I haz a sad so far...
Hi, my advice would be the following: for nodes use either a full minimal centos or fedora and install ovirt.org repo on top of that. then everything works. the node.isos provided by ovirt are in pre-alpha state to be honest. sure you still have to disable selinux (or better configure it correctly). But you have no problems with configurations which are not persisted and as a bonus you can install $your_favourite_tool on the node, such as tcpdump nmap etc. for debugging. Again: I would strongly advise against useing the node.isos from ovirt.org at the moment. There is just too much stuff not working or bugged, even simple things like network configuration.

If you encounter problems - and you probably will - please take a look here on how to debug them: http://www.ovirt.org/Node_Troubleshooting - Important Notes - SELinux: Boot this alpha image with enforcing=0 to log potential denials, but not block the calls. To fix those denials permanently please attach your /var/log/audit/audit.log to a bug in bugzilla.

Hi, this seems to work, but as far as I see I just get the events from the last start of the vm until now? Can the time range or the number of reported events be influenced in some way?

We'll try to sync it today, I'm sorry for the inconvenient. 3.4.0 alpha repository has been refreshed also for EL6. We'll start composing oVirt 3.4.0 beta on 2014-01-20 14:00 UTC from 3.4 branches.

Hi, I myself have no experience with this so far, but I can quote blaster from the ML: Blaster wrote: I haven’t tried this yet, but if I had to move a VM from ESXi to oVirt this is how I would do it… (actually, this is how I did it with Windows 7 guests…) Shutdown guest on ESXi (or use GhettoVCB to make a snapshot backup if you don’t want an outtage) NFS copy guest from ESXi server to temp storage somewhere qemu-img convert guest.vmdk -O raw guest.raw Create an oVirt guest with the appropriate OS type Add a disk of the same GB to the guest After oVirt finishes creating the disk, copy the guest.raw file over the disk image oVirt made boot guest and install qemu-agent, ovirt-agent, spice-agent (or better yet, do this before you shutdown on ESXi) remove VMware tools. The importing and virt2v procedure seems far to complex and error prone to me.

I'm interested to see if we can make this simpler/easier. hear hear! if you have experience with this, please describe the steps you are using (also the source platform), Sources: - Existing KVM (virt-manager/libvirt) platform - ESX - ova/ovf templates from several sources Methods: - KVM: virt-v2v with libvirtxml option, works reasonably well, most issues are with windows guests where virt-v2v needs libguestfs-winsupport and virtio-win (RHEL only) - ESX: virt-v2v which works reasonably well _if_ the right packages (libguestfs-winsupport virtio-win) are installed. virt-v2v can be used directly from ESX/ESX host (configure .netrc first) but this is quite slow another option is to export the VM as an OVA and then import it with virt-v2v - ova/ovf templates: hit and miss with virt-v2v, especially if they contain something that is not a regular windows/linux guest. Another option is to do a direct copy of the disks on a pre-created VM, clumsy. and how you would like to see this make simpler (I'm assuming that would start from somewhere in the webadmin probably). Webadmin would be nice, but better behaviour from existing tools would be a nice start too. For example: the flow with virt-v2v is 1) Analyze source, look for disks 2) Convert/copy disks to ovirt export domain 3) Try to add virtio stuff to the copied disks on the export domain If step 3 fails ( which happens a LOT), the copied disks are removed. This is very frustrating if you just waited a couple of hours for a large VM (e.g. 200GB) to be copied :( Some kind of graceful abort/resume would be VERY welcome. Another issue with virt-v2v is that it _always_ tries to add virtio drivers. I have a virtual appliance that contains some kind of proprietary embedded OS: adding drivers will always fail, give me some option to override that and configure simple ide / e1000 hardware for the VM Thanks, Itamar ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Hi, my advice would be the following: for nodes use either a full minimal centos or fedora and install ovirt.org repo on top of that. then everything works. the node.isos provided by ovirt are in pre-alpha state to be honest. sure you still have to disable selinux (or better configure it correctly). But you have no problems with configurations which are not persisted and as a bonus you can install $your_favourite_tool on the node, such as tcpdump nmap etc. for debugging. Again: I would strongly advise against useing the node.isos from ovirt.org at the moment. There is just too much stuff not working or bugged, even simple things like network configuration.

On 01/16/2014 05:02 PM, Jorick Astrego wrote: Hi Rob, Short answer, it really depends on your provider. But generally using a single good provider makes life easier and cheaper. I just had a client where we failed to implement any high available vm platform due to the way they had set up their uplinks. We had to use an api to do ip address failover but even then it was not possible to move a subnet to a different machine. KVM/IMPI/DRAC was not possible and no fencing devices available. Long answer you have to think about all the things just like you would when building the cloud on your own hardware Things you have to consider: * What kind of storage will you use local/glusterfs, iSCSI SAN, NFS and how will this be connected to the nodes * How will you synchronize the storage between multiple providers/datacenter? What kind of interconnect will you have between providers? What will this cost me (not cheap!!!)? * What kind of interconnect is available between nodes * How will you manage ip failover between providers (BGP, multicast, ?) * What kind of connection do you have between the management server and the ovirt nodes (ipsec, openvpn,dedicated line, * What are my SPOF's (Single Point Of Faillure) * What kind of fencing devices are available * Do the different providers have the same setup or is the hardware different (predictability of performance)? * Will you have to share infrastructure with other clients? * What is your maximum acceptable failover/migration time between providers? * I can go on for a couple of pages Kind regards, Jorick Astrego Netbulae B.V.

I'm envisioning a controller node running on a dedicated server leased from a provider and multiple compute nodes running on several different providers spread out over the net. I don't require any migration capability for the purposes of this. I manage a large farm of servers, and if this works like I think it would, I believe it would speed up deployment of new servers and also provide a better central management platform. If this is possible, what would be the requirements, pitfalls, etc.?
