Re: [Users] Problem Creating oVirt Engine

2013-08-11 Thread Richie@HIP
I tried Chrome (latest), Firefox v22, and IE v10 - ALL from a machine, with 
WinBlows 8, that was NOT hosting the VirtualBox VM where i've installed 
oVirtEngine.  I tried the same browsers from within the host where the VM 
resides.  I then tried connecting from my Mac using Chrome, Firefox 23 and 
latest Safari.  Same problem in all cases.

If somebody wants to take a look at it, we can arrange a TeamViewer session 
to the host that runs the VM, and maybe even to an adjacent computer which is 
NOT hosting the VM.  Let me know so we may make arrangements.  In the mean 
time, I'll continue trying out what's happening - all I can say until we 
understand the setup and get it to move; oVirt this is NOT for the faint of 
heart…

 Subject: Re: [Users] Problem Creating oVirt Engine
 
 Last week I dove deep into a fiends network and Active Directory
 infrastructure trying to install oVirtEngine with default values.  I was
 able to have AD DHCP recognize the VirtualBox oViertEngine VM and it took
 the better part of three (3) hours to get the DHCP to recognize the Name
 of the computer; it would show the IP and MAC address, but with empty
 name.  Finally I discovered that the name of the VM Fedora 18 machine had
 to be defines under System Settings  Details   Overview  Device Name; t
 had localloop.localdomain and chained to ovirtenine and reotedh P
 showed
 e Name of the  computer.  The DNS entry had to be made by hand since for
 some reason the DHCP lease was not being copied to the DNS database.
 
 Once both of these (DHCP and DNS where death with, oVirtEngine installed as
 documented - without errors and hangs.
 
 Then I opened the Welcome to oVirt Engine / Management web page.  Upon
 trying
 to open any of the portals, I was asked to verify the certificate; which
 I
 accepted.  I grid opening the User Portal and upon being presented the
 Login
 screen I entered admin as user, and welcome as the password (that's
 what
 I defined as password for the test VM I'm creating.)  I awaited several
 minuted and nothing happened.  I shut down the oVirtEngine VM, and
 increased
 the VM RAM from 4 Gb to 6 Gb.  Rebooted and reconnected and was able to
 enter the Users Portal, albeit after waiting almost a minute.  Voila…!!!
 It works…!!!
 
 But then I realized it was a premature celebration.  When trying to enter
 the
 Administration Portal, seeing the login screen, more than half an hour
 passed and nothing happened; only a spinning cursor and hardly any disk or
 LAN activity in the oVirtEngine VM.
 
 I copied all the entries in the engine.log related to today.  I'm including
 them as attachment so anyone can tell me why I can;t enter the oVirtEngine
 Administrator Portal.  Neither can I get into the Reports Portal which
 even shows a message with either a typo, of a british way of expressing
 legal (it read LeAgal (the uppercase A is my way of showing the
 typo).
 
 Please let me know if you have any suggestions regarding logging into the
 Administrator Portal.  Could it be that at least one node has to exist…?
 In
 the engine.log I can see several INFO and WAR messages, but the ERROR
 ones
 (which are very few) are to cryptic for me to make sense of them.
 
 I saw the log, indeed looks strange.
 In order to get all the data of the main screen (after login) several queries
 are run to the engine in order to fetch the data
 What I would suggest (unless someone else can see something I missed in the
 log) is to consider to run ovirt-engine in such a way that debug messages
 will be logged as well.
 
 
 What browser are you using?
 I recently had a similar issue with Firefox, and when I switched to Chrome 
 and there it worked well.
 Then, I tried to clear the cache in my Firefox, and it worked well there as 
 well.
 
 Hope it helps,
 Oved

 On June 4 2013 I sent the following message trying to overcome the
 FQDN issue:
 
 hi oVirt Community.
 
 This will be my first posting for help to the oVirt community, so
 please bear with me I'f I'm not to the etiquette standards you might
 have already.
 
 I'm trying to test oVirt as a FOSS Virtualization solution for small-
 to medium-sized healthcare organizations implementing various health
 information technology solutions (HIT) that the new health care
 reform is requiring.  As a Clinical informatist, I'm very concerned
 about health care costs, hence I'm pushing for open source to take a
 wider stance in U.S. health care to reduce costs where possible and
 divert moneys to patient care.  Now enough with my altruistic
 desires, and let go into the deep.
 
 I'm trying to create virtual machines (using VirtualBox, Parallels
 and/or VMWare Workstation); mainly one for oVirt Engine; ind later
 a the second one for oVirt Nodes.  This way, these VM's files can
 be copier to any hardware and underlying OS, so at least the Virt
 Engine is easily installed and brought-up to facilitate managing
 oVirt Nodes.  I considered creating .iso images of each component
 (Engine and Nodes) but I'm afraid this will hit the wall for linux
 novices when installing the .iso images in different hardware
 platforms (with different processors, number of cores, RAM, chipsets,
 etc.)
 
 I've begun with creating a VM for oVirt Engine under Parallels
 (albeit I began with VirtualBox, but drivers client additions
 aren't compatible with Fedora 18 - so I'll migrate this Parallels VM
 to VB once it is operational)  Fedora 18 installed without a single
 problem.  I then installed all oVirt Engine requirements by
 performing the instructions published in
 http://www.ovirt.org/Download - that is:
 
 First:
   sudo yum localinstall
 http://ovirt.org/releases/ovirt-release-fedora.noarch.rpm
 
 Second:
 sudo yum install -y ovirt-engine
 
 Third:  …I get stuck…!!!
 
 When I am performing the third step, I hit the fan.  Each time I
 perform the third step shown in the aforementioned web page
 (i.e. sudo engine-setup), the Welcome to oVirt Engine setup utility
 appears and begins to run until I reach the point where I need to
 define a Fully Qualified Domain Name.
 
 NOTE - A video of how to install oVirt in a single machine, entitled
 Installing oVirt on a single machine (at:
 http://www.ovirt.org/Documentation) shows the process (with some
 exemptions because it was recorded while oVirt v3.x was in beta), but
 I don't get what the video shows…!!!
 
 This is what I do and before getting stuck in the FQDN thing (no
 pun intended…!!!).  As third-step, I enter:
 
 sudo engine-setup
 
 I follow the prompts that appear after the Welcome to oVirt Engine
 setup utility is shown in the terminal window until I get to the prompt:
 
 Host fully qualified domain name. Note: this name should be fully
 resolvable  [localhost.localdomain] :
 
 If I press Enter, I get…:
 
 The IP (127.0.0.1) which was resolved from the FQDN
 localhost.localdomain is not configured on any non loopback interface
 on this host
 
 I figured that in order to define a FQDNm I had to expose my oVirt
 Engine VN to the Internet.  Since I'm doing all from home (where I'm
 limited to a Dynamic IP, albeit, which hardly-ever changes) I went
 to DynDns.org http://DynDns.org and created an entry so my FQDN
 Text-URL would resolve to the IP where I'm at.  I also modified my
 Domain's DNS and entered a DNS Alias named dcmanagement, defining
 this DNS alias to resolve into my IP by going to DynDNS.org
 http://DynDNS.org to get my Public IP.  Hence, the alias
 dcmanagement1 resolves by going to

In a conversation via IRC, someone suggested that I activate dnsmask to 
overcome what appears to be a DNS problem.  I'll try that other possibility 
once I get home later today.

In the mean time, what do you mean by fixing the hostname…?  I opened and 
fixed the HOSTNAMES and changed it from localhost-localdomain to 
localhost.localdomain and that made no difference.  Albeit, after changing I 
didm;t restart, remove ovirtEngine ((using engine-cleanup) and reinstalled

In the mean time, the fact that even if I resolve the issue of oVirtEngine I

apparently means I should do something with resolving via DNS in my home LAN 
(i.e implement some sort of DNS Cache so I can resolve my home computers via

 Subject: Re: [Users] Problem Creating oVirt Engine
 
 Let me star by Saying, I;m using Fedora 18 Desktop; whack I've removed most
 of the unnecessary stuff (games, libreOffice, mail server, and other
 utilities) to strip it down.  Then I run YUM to -update whatever is left
 in Fedora 18 Desktop.
 
 When setting up the oVirt Engine, if I accept the recommendations, the
 engine-setup process hangs try to restart the HTTPd; gives and [ERROR}
 and aborts the rest of the process.  I've included terminal dumps and logs
 (i.e. as attachments) in prior email everyone you to see…!!!  If I DO NOT
 accept the recommendations related to the HTTPd, then the setup process RUNS
 AS EXPECTED and gives me port 8700 for the main page, and 8701 for all
 oVirtEngine portals.  I've looked at the engine-etup log and if aborts
 when the python script is trying to restart HHTPd. Look at the following:
 2013_07_25_10_55_PM_TerminalOutput - Terminal output dump IF I ACCEPT the
 defaults
 engine-setup_2013_07_25_22_35_14 - engine-setup log IF I ACCEPT the
 defaults
 
 I would like to know why httpd is not started at your machine.
 Can you please send /var/log/httpd/error_log, /var/log/httpd/ssl_error_log
 
 
 2013_07_25_11_30_PM_TerminalOutput - Terminal output dump if I DO NOT accept
 the defaults
 engine-setup_2013_07_25_23_27_15 - engine-setup log if I DO NOT accept the
 defaults
 
 I've never reached a point where I've been asked to accept of reject a
 Certificate; I've just been able to open the oVirt Engine Welcome Screen
 (through port 8700 - ex. at http://ovirt.localhost.local:8700;)
 
 I've had my concerns as to the following:
 What about removing all HTTP (apache, tomcat, etc.) fro fedora, hence
 stripping fedora even more, prior to running engine-setup.
 There must be an error trapping failure to restart HTTPd in engine-setup
 that needs to be attended.

 Herein the terminal output after removing oVirtEngine and reinstalling; BU

 Why not follow the recommendation?
 
 Again, I was able to open the oVirt Engine Welcome to Open Virtualization
 Manager screen in Firefox using ovirt.localdomain.local:8700 as URL,
 but
 can't enter any of the portals (requiring access to port 8701)
 
 What do you get? what error in browser? you should accept the certificate

2013-07-31 Thread Richie@HIP
BTW - I installed oVirtEngine at a client's office using a VirtualBox VM.  They 
are a large imaging center and have an Active Directory and DNS in place.  I 
Stumbled upon ALL the same problems when using the default engine setup 
parameters (it hung upon restarting the HTTPd service).

Just to add to your knowledge, I began doing the oVirtEngine implementation 
using Parallels Desktop as well as VirtualBox in MY MacBookPro; both experience 
the same problems.

 On June 4 2013 I sent the following message trying to overcome the FQDN issue:
 
 hi oVirt Community.
 
 This will be my first posting for help to the oVirt community, so please 
 bear with me I'f I'm not to the etiquette standards you might have already.
 
 I'm trying to test oVirt as a FOSS Virtualization solution for small- to 
 medium-sized healthcare organizations implementing various health 
 information technology solutions (HIT) that the new health care reform is 
 requiring.  As a Clinical informatist, I'm very concerned about health care 
 costs, hence I'm pushing for open source to take a wider stance in U.S. 
 health care to reduce costs where possible and divert moneys to patient 
 care.  Now enough with my altruistic desires, and let go into the deep.
 
 I'm trying to create virtual machines (using VirtualBox, Parallels and/or 
 VMWare Workstation); mainly one for oVirt Engine; ind later a the second 
 one for oVirt Nodes.  This way, these VM's files can be copier to any 
 hardware and underlying OS, so at least the Virt Engine is easily 
 installed and brought-up to facilitate managing oVirt Nodes.  I considered 
 creating .iso images of each component (Engine and Nodes) but I'm afraid 
 this will hit the wall for linux novices when installing the .iso images 
 in different hardware platforms (with different processors, number of cores, 
 RAM, chipsets, etc.)
 
 I've begun with creating a VM for oVirt Engine under Parallels (albeit I 
 began with VirtualBox, but drivers client additions aren't compatible with 
 Fedora 18 - so I'll migrate this Parallels VM to VB once it is operational)  
 Fedora 18 installed without a single problem.  I then installed all oVirt 
 Engine requirements by performing the instructions published in 
 http://www.ovirt.org/Download - that is:
 
 First: 
 sudo yum localinstall 
 http://ovirt.org/releases/ovirt-release-fedora.noarch.rpm
 
 Second:  
  sudo yum install -y ovirt-engine
 
 Third:  …I get stuck…!!!
 
 When I am performing the third step, I hit the fan.  Each time I perform the 
 third step shown in the aforementioned web page (i.e. sudo engine-setup), 
 the Welcome to oVirt Engine setup utility appears and begins to run until 
 I reach the point where I need to define a Fully Qualified Domain Name.  
 
 NOTE - A video of how to install oVirt in a single machine, entitled 
 Installing oVirt on a single machine (at: 
 http://www.ovirt.org/Documentation) shows the process (with some exemptions 
 because it was recorded while oVirt v3.x was in beta), but I don't get what 
 the video shows…!!!
 
 This is what I do and before getting stuck in the FQDN thing (no pun 
 intended…!!!).  As third-step, I enter:
 
  sudo engine-setup
 
 I follow the prompts that appear after the Welcome to oVirt Engine setup 
 utility is shown in the terminal window until I get to the prompt:
  
  Host fully qualified domain name. Note: this name should be fully 
 resolvable  [localhost.localdomain] : 
 
 If I press Enter, I get…:
 
  The IP (127.0.0.1) which was resolved from the FQDN 
 localhost.localdomain is not configured on any non loopback interface on 
 this host
 
 I figured that in order to define a FQDNm I had to expose my oVirt Engine 
 VN to the Internet.  Since I'm doing all from home (where I'm limited to a 
 Dynamic IP, albeit, which hardly-ever changes) I went to DynDns.org and 
 created an entry so my FQDN Text-URL would resolve to the IP where I'm at. 
  I also modified my Domain's DNS and entered a DNS Alias named 
 dcmanagement, defining this DNS alias to resolve into my IP by going to 
 DynDNS.org to get my Public IP.  Hence, the alias dcmanagement1 resolves 
 by going to healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org and gets my Public IP.
 
 NOTE - To test this setup, I do ping to either 
 healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org or 
 dcmanagement1.healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org and I get my Dynamic 
 Public IP back.  Once the Text URL issue was returning my IP (as FQDN 
 expect) I repeated the: 
 
  sudo engine-setup
 
 Upon reaching:
 
  Host fully qualified domain name. Note: this name should be fully 
 resolvable  [localhost.localdomain] : 
 
 I entered dcmanagement1.healthcareinfopartners.com and got my Public IP 
 back with the following message:

Re: [Users] Problem Creating oVirt Engine - Stuck on FQDN

2013-06-09 Thread Richie@HIP
Thanks to Ryan and Sandro.

Did the addition to the host file (with variations for the IP range i'm using 
and domains), and SELinux Config,  and it worked; the oVirt Engine create 
process ran its course, with one exemption.  :-(

The first time I selected ALL the defaults proposed by create, including the 
one related to changing the HTTPd port from where it was (in port 1000 or so) 
to the usual ports (80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS) and that created an 
Error in the last step of the create process.  No worried, I reverted to a 
prior snapshot (since I'm doing this in a Virtual Machine, and the second 
time did NOT change the HTTPd ports as suggested (by typing no in that step) 
and the create routine ran completely, finishing with the URL I should use to 
access the oVirtEngine GUI with the browser.

Thanks to all - thus far…   ;-)

  You have just to set /etc/hosts with the IP address of the network

  No need to have a public IP, it could just be defined locally in

  The important thing is that FQDN resolves to an IP on a local network

VMWare Workstation); mainly one for oVirt Engine; ind later a the second one 
for oVirt Nodes.  This way, these VM's files can be copier to any hardware 
and underlying OS, so at least the Virt Engine is easily installed and 
brought-up to facilitate managing oVirt Nodes.  I considered creating .iso 
images of each component (Engine and Nodes) but I'm afraid this will hit the 
wall for linux novices when installing the .iso images in different hardware 
platforms (with different processors, number of cores, RAM, chipsets, etc.)

I've begun with creating a VM for oVirt Engine under Parallels (albeit I began 
with VirtualBox, but drivers client additions aren't compatible with Fedora 
18 - so I'll migrate this Parallels VM to VB once it is operational)  Fedora 18 
installed without a single problem.  I then installed all oVirt Engine 
requirements by performing the instructions published in 
http://www.ovirt.org/Download - that is:

First: 
   sudo yum localinstall 
http://ovirt.org/releases/ovirt-release-fedora.noarch.rpm

Second:  
sudo yum install -y ovirt-engine

Third:  …I get stuck…!!!

When I am performing the third step, I hit the fan.  Each time I perform the 
third step shown in the aforementioned web page (i.e. sudo engine-setup), the 
Welcome to oVirt Engine setup utility appears and begins to run until I reach 
the point where I need to define a Fully Qualified Domain Name.  

NOTE - A video of how to install oVirt in a single machine, entitled 
Installing oVirt on a single machine (at: http://www.ovirt.org/Documentation) 
shows the process (with some exemptions because it was recorded while oVirt 
v3.x was in beta), but I don't get what the video shows…!!!

This is what I do and before getting stuck in the FQDN thing (no pun 
intended…!!!).  As third-step, I enter:

sudo engine-setup

I follow the prompts that appear after the Welcome to oVirt Engine setup 
utility is shown in the terminal window until I get to the prompt:
 
Host fully qualified domain name. Note: this name should be fully 
resolvable  [localhost.localdomain] : 

If I press Enter, I get…:

The IP (127.0.0.1) which was resolved from the FQDN 
localhost.localdomain is not configured on any non loopback interface on this 
host

I figured that in order to define a FQDNm I had to expose my oVirt Engine VN 
to the Internet.  Since I'm doing all from home (where I'm limited to a 
Dynamic IP, albeit, which hardly-ever changes) I went to DynDns.org and 
created an entry so my FQDN Text-URL would resolve to the IP where I'm at.  I 
also modified my Domain's DNS and entered a DNS Alias named dcmanagement, 
defining this DNS alias to resolve into my IP by going to DynDNS.org to get 
my Public IP.  Hence, the alias dcmanagement1 resolves by going to 
healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org and gets my Public IP.

NOTE - To test this setup, I do ping to either 
healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org or 
dcmanagement1.healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org and I get my Dynamic Public 
IP back.  Once the Text URL issue was returning my IP (as FQDN expect) I 
repeated the: 

sudo engine-setup

Upon reaching:

Host fully qualified domain name. Note: this name should be fully 
resolvable  [localhost.localdomain] : 

I entered dcmanagement1.healthcareinfopartners.com and got my Public IP back 
with the following message:

The IP (70.45.xxx.xx) which was resolved from the FQDN 
dcmanagement1.healthcareinfopartners.com is not configured on any non loopback 
interface on this host


Now, here's the question.  What does anyone suggest I do to overcome the FQDN 
setting and continue the installation process…?

I agree.  The oVirt Node part will not be a VM since as you said, it would be 
a VM within a VM - my mistake in expressing what i'm preparing.

Regarding the single machine (Engine and Node) live iso that you mention.  
Where can I find it…?

 hi oVirt Community.
 
 This will be my first posting for help to the oVirt community, so please 
 bear with me I'f I'm not to the etiquette standards you might have already.
 
 I'm trying to test oVirt as a FOSS Virtualization solution for small- to 
 medium-sized healthcare organizations implementing various health 
 information technology solutions (HIT) that the new health care reform is 
 requiring.  As a Clinical informatist, I'm very concerned about health care 
 costs, hence I'm pushing for open source to take a wider stance in U.S. 
 health care to reduce costs where possible and divert moneys to patient 
 care.  Now enough with my altruistic desires, and let go into the deep.

 If I understand you correctly you want to make VMs for both engine and node 
 so that you'll only need those images to setup a virtualisation 
 infrastructure?
 If so that is only partly going to work. The engine VM will work but the node 
 not since that would imply nested virtualisation. That can work but not for 
 every combination and probably not for the above mentioned products.
 Node needs to run on the bare metal since it provides the same functions as 
 VirtualBox/Parallels/VMWare, its Fedora18 as its operating system + kvm as 
 its virtualiser.
 
 Concerning you dns problems, to make it short, you'll need to come up with a 
 naming scheme and implement that either using a full dns server or through 
 /etc/hosts.
 You might also have a look at the all-in-one plugin which turns a single 
 machine into both engine and node or if you want to play around have a look 
 at the live iso.
