OVM Server 3.1.1 errors

I am running OVM 3.1.1 in a 2 servers cluster. on one of the server I noticed that following errors happening very frequently in /var/log/ovs-agent.log. whereas 2nd OVM Server has no errors. I also noticed in OVM manager that if I go to "repository" tab, every thing in repository has "lock" sign on it.
I am trying to create a clone from one of the templates but it just stays in "in progress" at 0% for ages and nothing happens.
I do not have any idea where and why these errors are generated. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Did you get any resolution to this problem?
I'm getting the same errors and I can't find anything on MOS which indicates what could it be. Same setup as yours, 2 servers in the cluster pool and one is throwing errors and the other is not.

Cluster Not Available error when booting OVM server DOM0 from USB

Hi all,
I have been wanting to run OVM 2.2 from a USB stick for a while now. I ran through the install CD today and saw there was a 'minimal USB install' option on the installation screen. So I plugged in a 4GB USB stick, rebooted, and ran the USB install.
After a while, the install completed, OVM booted up perfectly it seemed, and I was happy.
The server had no local storage apart from this USB stick as we are going to be hooking it up to an iSCSI target for guest VM storage.
This was a new lab setup, so I got the VM Manager running on another system, connected to the USB booted OVM server, and went to create a pool.
Running the 'test connection' that worked fine.
Trying to add the pool - failed. I got the error 'Cluster Not Available'
On the OVM server I did a repos.py -l and nothing gets listed.
I understand that for HA you need a repository with shared storage. However, before I have used these same install CDs with a singe local hard disk, to get OVM server running, and it did so fine.
So what's different with the USB disk install that means you don't get a repository?
Do I have to create a special repository LUN, manually connect the OVM server to this, and then use repos.py to create it?
Cheers,
Jeff

Ok I have read, re-read related parts of the underground manual and have hit a brick wall with the 'simple' task of setting up a NIC for dedicated iSCSI traffic. The manual does not cover this task in the iSCSI SAN section.
So I'm in a catch 22.
My OVM server boots up, with it's single management NIC configured, but once booted - I don't want to connect to the iSCSI target via this network - I need it completely closed off.
I want to use another NIC (or bond of two) for dedicated iSCSI traffic to and from the OVM Server.
However, the underground manual strangely only seems to cover a single NIC configuration! It looks like he assumes you are going to be running iSCSI on your management NIC, which I can only think is incredibly bad practice.
I have installed OVM with the linux asknetwork - this did not give me the option to configure additional interfaces.
I then manually edited /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 on the OVMServer, restarted network, restarted the entire box - I can ping my new NIC / IP locally from within the OVM server, but I can not connect to the iSCSI target, nor can I ping the iSCSI NIC on the OVM server from the target.
This is such a simple thing to try to achieve - super frustrating...

Lost connection between ovm-manager and ovm-server (ovm 3.1)

Hi,
I have a manager as a VM on my laptop and a physical server as an ovm-server. Everything is fine when i boot the server but after some time, the manager stop to show the information from the server. in the ovs-agent log file the following messages are repeated regulary
[2013-08-29 13:06:19 6160] DEBUG (notification:289) Trying to connect to manager.
[2013-08-29 13:06:20 6160] DEBUG (notification:291) Connected to manager.

[2013-08-29 13:06:34 6171] ERROR (notification:64) Unable to send notification: (111, 'Connection refused')
I did not reboot neither the server nor the manager. No IP change. Rebooting the manager has no effect.
The only way to restore communication is to restart the ovs-agent on the server, but this restart disable the network card. I must be physical on the server to restart the network.
any help will be very helpful
best regards
Jean-Marc

Hi,
The are many steps to verify:
Verify with your firewall on the Oracle VM Manager system (service iptables stop).
Verify with a ping between OVM Manager and OVM Server using the IP Address and using the hostname for each one (from OVM Manager : ping ovm-server ; and from OVM Server: ping ovm-manager).
I hope this can help you
Best Regards

Disaster recovery of remaining OVM server

Hi,
I hope some of you can help me with some disaster recovery tests I have to do shortly.
The environment has 2 OVM servers: servre1 and server2 in a server pool.
Server1 has the cluster filesystem shared to it via multiipathing, and in turn, server1 shares the repository and cluster fs with server2 via NFS.
In the meantime, there are other LUNS shared with just server2, which are being replicated with the repository and cluster fs that is currently being used.
If server1 "dies" and this is easy to simulate as just shutting it down, it will stop sharing the repository and fs with server2, the server pool will have errors, and so will server 1 (it cannot be contacted), and so will server2 (it has lost access to repository and cluster fs).
Oracle documentation explains very clearly how to add and remove server pools and servers neatly, but it makes no mention of how to clean up a server in order to reuse in on a new server pool, with a new repository, in this case, the replicated LUNs that were only in server2.
Has any of you done something similar to this? Do I have to go into the OVM Manager database at row level to delete every mention of the old repository? Is there a way of cleaning up the server2 for reuse (other than reinstalling)? In OVM 2.2 there was a cleanup.py script, but I didn´t find such script in 3.0.3...
Any suggestions on how to test this will be welcome. If I have overlooked some useful documentation on this, please point me to it...
Regards,
T.

Dan,

Problem with OVM Server 3.2.6 - xend not running

Hi, just now I upgraded my server to OVM Server 3.2.6 version and server boots up, cluster is up but I have message that Hypervisor is running in UNDETERMINED bit mode (WARNING: XEND IS PROBABLY NOT RUNNING). While boot I saw message that xend failed to start because "mount point /proc/xen does not exist". Also when it tries to start xend, there is message "xencommons should be started first". Reinstalling OVMS did not help. Does anyone have this problem?
Thanks.

Adding an OVM server back into OVM Manager after a reload

We have created a sandbox environment to test Oracle virtualization and had 2 physical servers setup. One running Oracle OVM and the other Oracle Linux. The Oracle Linux box had OVM Manager installed and was using local storage for the repository.
After about a month of running the Oracle Linux box was reloaded without saving any of the OVM Manager configuration information. After reloading the Oracle Linux box and installing OVM Manager my first issue was adding the OVM server back into a pool. We were getting the error that it was already being managed by another host. After a quick search of the Oracle forum I found a post suggesting that we stop the ovs-agent on the OVM box and remove a file.
These were the commands:
# service ovs-agent stop
# rm /etc/ovs-agent/db/server
# service ovs-agent start
After doing this I was able to discover and add the server into a pool. The next issue was when I went to look at the virtual machines hosted on the OVM machine. All 6 of the virtual machines that were created now show as "orphan_004fb0000060000...". In digging around I noticed that the repository for the local storage was not setup so when I go to try add the local disk back as a repository and I select "create a data repository: select physical disk" it comes back as blank.
If I click the storage tab and look under local file systems I see the disk and it has location repository specified and server listed under presented servers.
I am thinking the mapping is somehow messed up after adding the host back to a new OVM Manager and I need to relink the storage to the repository but am a little lost as to how to accomplish this.
I am trying to avoid reloading the entire OVM server so I don't lose the work already done with the existing virtual machines.

To answer your second question first, It is an unclustered server pool.
When I run the refresh I get an error. Below are the details:

Failed OVM Server Upgrade from 3.0.2 to 3.1.1

I was trying to upgrade my OVM Server environment from *3.0.2* to *3.1.1* using the CD. I got the following error message after choosing the Upgrade option: Oracle VM server 3.0.2 (cciss/c0d0p2). The other option was to Reinstall System.
+"Error mounting device sda2 as /:+
+Device or resource busy+
+This most likely means this+
+partition hast not been formatted.+
+Press OK to reboot your system."+
My hardware is a HP BL465c G7 server, which is certified by Oracle to run the OVM 3.1.
http://linux.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=117:2:3396212307219555::NO::P2_CERT_ID:1871
Any advice that can help me find the way to upgrade my servers?
Thanks in advance,
Andrés L.

Hi,
I tried "yum update -y" and after reboot I encountered a kernel panic after the following message: switchroot: mount failed: No such file or directory.
So I got to reinstall ovm 3.0.3 from scratch.
Maybe the hard disk drivers in 3.1.1 kernel version (uek2) are not compatible with my server disks.
If someone has an accurate explanation to this issue, could be helpfull.
Best Regards,
Andres Loaiza.

OVM Manager install for running OVM server for SPARC plateform

Guys,
I have to install and deploy OVM Manager for managing an existing OVM server for SPARC.
When try to run ovs-agent-setup command, it fails telling that ovm server has not good configuration and exits!!
ovs-agent ** ERROR: The vds service is not configured on the primary domain
Trying to fix by resetting factory default configuration, then poweroff domain and poweron aain but nothing!! I got same error and ovs-agent service is in maintenance.
Now we have create ldoms and servers are in production!! We cannot reset configuration now.
Is-it possible to deploy OVM manager, fix ovs-agent issue without impacting actual vm??? How to do this? I assume that vm created with ldm commande can not be provision with ovm manager.
Please help!!

Hi,
Windows Server 2008 R2 supports two mutually exclusive methods for setting quotas on the amount of file system resources a user can use—disk quotas or directory quotas. Disk quotas are applied to specific users and limit the amount of disk space that user can
use on a particular volume. Directory quotas are applied to all users and limit the amount of disk space that users can use in a particular folder and its subfolders.
I do a test on my pc and find there is no priority between the two quotas, it depends on which quota is smaller. So user A can only save 1 GB files in the folder.

OVM server Discovery fails

When I attempt to discover one of my OVM servers I'm getting a python(?) error during the storage discovery phase.
Anyone have any ideas how to resolve this?
Thanks!

This is usually due to either of the following issues (not enough information to determine if this is your problem):
1. The IP addresses you are using as the IPs for the Oracle VM servers being discovered are somehow incorrect. For instance, I sometimes typo one of the octets in the IP address IE: I meant to type 10.11.12.100, but instead messed up the third octet by typing a "21" instead of a "12" (just an example).
2. The password you provided for the "Oracle VM Agent Password" in the discovery dialog is incorrect. There are several reasons this may be happening, but the way to ensure the ovs-agent has the same password you think it should is by logging into each Oracle VM server and changing the ovs-agent password for BOTH "admin" AND "oracle" users. This is done using the following command on each Oracle VM server:
/usr/sbin/ovs-agent-passwd admin
/usr/sbin/ovs-agent-passwd oracle
Both of the above will prompt for a password - use the same password for both and ensure you do this on all your Oracle VM servers.
Here is how you verify that the passwords you just changed work:
/opt/ovs-agent-3.0/utils/do_rpc.py https://admin:<new passwd>@<your OVM server>:8899 echo ""
/opt/ovs-agent-3.0/utils/do_rpc.py https://oracle:<new passwd>@<your OVM server>:8899 echo ""
The above commands will return the following if the passwords are correct (anything else, no matter what error it returns means the password is not what you expect it to be):
echo [''] =>
success:echo=
Hope this answer helps...

OVM Server login through xml-rpc

Hi,
I installed OVM Server 2.2.1 on a x86 pc. Interested in remote control of OVM through xml-rpc, I try to login through xml-rpc. The python codes which are referenced from Xen API are:
*>>> import xmlrpclib*
*>>> server = xmlrpclib.Server("http://mypc:8006")*
*>>> session = server.session.login_with_password("xxxx", "xxxx")*
The OVM Server can't be login. The error message is:
*{'Status': 'Failure', 'ErrorDescription': ['MESSAGE_METHOD_UNKNOWN', 'session.login_with_password']}*
I have modified /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp as follows before login:
*1. (xend-tcp-xmlrpc-server yes)*
*2. (xend-tcp-xmlrpc-server-address 'mypc')*
*3. (xend-tcp-xmlrpc-server-port 8006)*
Then I restart xend.
OVM Server support xml-rpc, since the communication between OVM Server and Manager is through xml-rpc. From feedback error message, the socket communciation is OK. I wonder whether xmlrpclib is modified, or the question lies on password and username?
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
I would not mess around with xml-rpc, because the calls are not documented by Oracle.
So if you change the OVS_AGENT/MANAGER it might be, that these calls change.
As an alternative I would suggest either taking the web-service API, which the OVM Manager provides, or use ovmcli, if you prefer the commandline.

"The Server Responded With An Error"

Y'day I was pasting details of a reserv into ICAL. it was perhaps too much data. As soon as I clicked to paste, I got msg "The Server Responded With An Error" & below that was the info I was copying into my calendar. Then calendar froze. Then "Force Quit", then reopen Ical & the same msg appears and frozen. I attempted to drag the msg to trash to no avail. I rebooted computer. Everything else is working on my MacBookPro. I do NOT have Lion. Thks

That sounds like something went wrong in the database the governs syncing.
Restore from your backup to restore your calendar.
Reset your sync history: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iSync/3.1/en/9247.html and then follow the steps:
Go into iCal > Preferences > Accounts and delete the MobileMe account from here.
If you are using it you can then re-add it and be careful to enter in the correct name and password.
Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
__NOTE: Removing these files will remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
Once the computer is back up and running open iCal and test.

I added a reminder in iCal and it froze up. The error message is:The server responded with an error.
