Hi,
We upgraded from oVirt 3.5 and 3.6 and deleted the Default cluster, so
now we have the Blank template with no DC and no Cluster, thus our
users
can't use it.
Is there a way to manually set these two parameters to the current DC
and Cluster values for the Blank template? I tried editing it but see
no
option to set them.
Thanks.
Nicolás

Hi Nicolás,
Removing the default cluster should be ok, since the templates don't
bind VMs to a DC/Cluster--you should be able to specify the DC/Cluster
when creating a VM.
HTH,

Hi Greg,
I'll elaborate a bit further on the issue. I'm attaching a screenshot of
the 'Templates' tab on the webadmin pane - As you can see, all of them
have a Data Center and a Cluster assigned (columns 4 and 5) but the
Blank template (because we deleted the default DC). Even if this
template has the 'Everyone' permission, as we're granting permissions to
our users on the Data Center, they are not able to see the Blank
template in the list when deploying new machines in the userportal view,
so currently they necessarily need to choose a template from the list
which is not Blank, and that's an issue to some of them.
That's why I was wondering if there's a manual way to assign the DC and
Cluster to the Blank template, even modifying it directly in the DB, so
the users see it in the userportal.
Any hint is very appreciated.
Regards,
Nicolás
The default template is unbound to a DC/Cluster by design, so while
forcing an assignment in the db could work (not sure), it's not
supported and likely to break at some point. See [1] for details on
that 3.6 change.
However, since the root issue seems to be users not being able to use
the template, you should be able to assign permissions that allow this
from the Templates > Permissions sub-tab. If this isn't working, it
could be a bug.

Oh, now I see. Indeed, I was able to see the template in the side
'Template' tab, but unable to see it when deploying a machine. I
realized that for some reason the Blank template missed the
UserTemplateBasedVm permission (most probably someone accidentally
deleted it), so I added it back and now I can see it.
Thanks very much for the insight.
Regards,
Nicolás
