OVM Server 2.2.1 in a ProLiant BL680c G7 did not detect networks interfaces

Hello everybody
I just installed OVM Server in a HP ProLiant BL680c G7 and the installation finish. But the network interfaces was not detected. (The installation skip the network steps)
The Server have 24 network interfaces (FlexFabric Embedded Ethernet)
Any idea in order to recognize network interfaces??
greetings

Hi,
try using OVM 2.2.2 which was released a week ago. (edelivery.oracle.com/linux)
A lot of drivers were updated, maybe now your network cards are also detected.
Regards
Sebastian

Windows 8 and Server 2012. Not detecting network is a domain.

Hi Guys,
I hope I have posted this to the correct forum.
I have 2 x Windows 8 PCs that do not detect that they are connected to a domain (network location awareness not working). I can join them to the domain but they still don't recognise the network as a domain. Instead they identify it as "private".
Other PCs on the network (Win XP and Win 7) work prefectly, just the windows 8 machines don't work.
Also, when I do join them to domain I also receive this message.
"changing the Primary Domain DNS name of this computer to "" failed. The name will remain xxxx.local. The error was: the specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted. "
I have tried the following
- DHCP and DNS has being tried both as static and dynamic (can ping DNS server which is the domain controller Windows Server 2012) .
- Updated PC NIC drivers.
- No AV is installed on either server or PC.
- Updated PC to windows 8.1.
- Disabled both server and PC firewalls.
- Check NLA service and all dependent services are running.
- Disabled all adapters on server except for one.
I am really hoping someone can help with this as I would really appreciate it.
Thanks.
Shaun

Hi Guys,
I managed to find a solution to the problem. I noticed that the DNS server zones did not look quite right. The _msdcs zone was missing the subfolders (dc, domains, gc, pdc).
To fix this issue: on the NIC adapter I had to tick the box "register this connection's addresses in DNS" (found under TCP/IP v4 > advanced > DNS tab).
I then had to remove the DNS role, reboot then re-add the role. Problem solved. Hopefully this saves someone else pulling their hair out for an entire day.

HI
the sql instance service is running with domain/sqlservice account ,
- i stopped the sql service service
- when i start it not started again and i found below error message

Assign "Log on as a service" to the service account on this computer. You can use Local Security Settings (Secpol.msc) to do this.
If this computer is a node in a cluster, check that this user right is assigned to the Cluster service account on all nodes in the cluster.
If you have already assigned this user right to the service account, and the user right appears to be removed,
check with your domain administrator to find out if a Group Policy object associated with this node might be removing the right.

Server side does not detect network failure

Hi folks,
I coded a simple chat program. When a client connects to the multi-thread server, server shows newly connected client's IP address. Now, if the connection between client and server is down, client detects and terminates itself but server does not. The server still shows that client as connected. when I traced the server side, I found out that server was waiting at the readObject (client object input stream) line but it didn't throw any IOException. I tried to send some message to all connected client at every 20 seconds, so I expected to catch IOException when the server did not reach the client. Unfortunately, it didn't work. That is my question how can server side detect network failure?
Thanks for help.
Regards
Bulent

That is how TCP works (noting that it has nothing to do with java.)
Your solution is one of the following or some combination...
- If the server does not receive something every X time period then it disconnects.
- If the server has not received something after X time period it sends a keep alive message to the client. If the client does not respond (or the message fails) then the server disconnects.

Install OVM server 3.2.1 on iSCSI LUN

Hello friends,
I have a Cisco Blade and would like to boot OVM server from an iSCSI lun. I create a LUN from a SAN and presented the lun to the blade. When the server boots up, it sees the iSCSI lun just fine but when I tried to install OVM server 3.2.1, it did not detect that LUN. I tried to install Oracle Linux 6.3 and it sees the LUN ok. Is there a way to make OVM server to see that LUN.
thanks,
TD

I have done to many oel and ovs install lately such that they are blurring together...
On the OVM 3.2.1 install watch closely for a place to add support for non local storage. I remember seeing a small prompt in some of the installs but it may have been from some of the OEL installs (I have also been doing OEL 4, 5, & 6) & not OVM.
Sorry I can't remember right now. If I get a moment and try to run the install process I will and report back if no one else does.

OVM Server or Virtual BOX

Which product (OVM server or Virtual BOX) has a better perfomance, flexibility and reliability?

Hi,
well both products actually have a totally different focus:
OVM is a "Server Visualization Product", which means it is a bare metal hypervisor directly installed on hardware, whereas Virtual Box is a "Desktop Visualization Product", which runs on top of an already installed OS.
Main Focus of Virtual Box is for testing and developing, not for production systems. Main Focus for OVM is definitely production environment (but may be used for deploying test and development systems).
It's in the defintiion, that OVM server has a better performance and reliability, because it is not installed on top of another OS. Virtual Box can only be so reliable as the underlying OS.
So if you run it on top of Windows.... decide yourself ;)

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.

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

How to configure local disk on OVM Server as storage space to create VMs

Hello,
We have installed OVM Server 3.1.1 on a machine that has 250 GB of Hard disk space [Single disk].
While installing used an option - Remove all partitions and create a new default partition layout.
Around 4GB has been used and remaining 246 GB is left as free space.
From OVM Manager - the server is discovered but didn't discovered the physical disk [i.e. remaining 246 GB raw disk space].
Can someone help me to understand how to use local disk as storage space for creating and running VM's.
Thanks
Srinivas

You can? You've used every conceivable BIOS out there? You must really be full of yourself. There is absolutely no BIOS that I know of that gives this basic function. BIOSs do not "hard partition" anything. A "BIOS" is not made for such things. Do you even know what "BIOS" stands for?
I wonder why there is some many wanting to do this and are having problems.... I mean if it is such a straight forward thing to do..... It must be down right "intuitive".
You maybe speaking of a RAID "BIOS" but you obviously think you're not. Some motherboards have integrated RAID abilities. Intel RST comes to mind... BUT this isn't a feature of a MOTHERBOARD BIOS.
I've got some $50,000 servers that will not break a single hard drive up into multiple logical drives..... Now, I haven't worked on a "Stinkpad" for many years. Don't want to. However, I have never seen one that would do what you're saying you're doing.
You maybe trying to help.... but you're leading people down a wrong path.
Its just as easy to run virtual box and use the virtual box templates for Oracle VM. In fact, its more practical if you want to run Oracle VM on a laptop for testing purposes than blowing everything away and attempting to setup different LUNS on a single hard drive.
For your review...
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/servers-storage-admin/configure-vm-templates-1656261.html
Although it's more reliable to use a separate location (such as an NFS share) for a storage repository, you can use a local disk of your Oracle VM Server instead, thus taking advantage of the local storage option. Beware, though: Oracle VM Server 3.0 doesn't allow you to utilize the unused space on the physical disk it's installed on. For local storage, you'll need at least one more physical disk. In other words, you'll need a total of two disks at minimum on your Oracle VM Server host if you want to use local storage. In practice, though, local storage is not a primary use case. The major downside to this approach is that local storage, by definition, cannot be shared between different servers.

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...

OVM Server 2.1.2 does not prompt for Networking

OVM Server 2.1.2 does not prompt for a network setup (ie DHCP or static IPs).
- I tried re-installing this several times
This same machine works with native Enterprise Linux 5.2 x86-64 networking.
The motherboard has two onboard Realtek 8111C chips (10/100/1000 Mbit)
http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ProductID=2842
Will setting up networking by hand work with OVM Server 2.1.2?

OK I finaly made my Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller to work.
First install an Ethernet card in your box that OVM supports. This to make the OVM installation run smoothly.
When OVM is up and running follow the steps in [Mini-HOWTO] RPMs needed to compile a kernel-module on / for VM Server to get a working environment to compile modules.
Now get the driver for the unsupported card from ftp://61.56.86.122/cn/nic/r8168-8.008.00.tar.bz2 .
Unpack the file by running;:
tar -jxvf r8168-8.008.00.tar.bz2
Now follow the steps in the included readme file to compile and install the driver.
After this I edited the file /etc/modules.conf and changed the line
alias eth0 xxx
to
alias eth0 r8168
I then turned of the machine and removed my temporary network card.
When booted I ran system-config-network to configure the network once more to the original values I entered when I installed.

OVM Server 3.2.1 install reboots server

I have been trying to install OVM Server on an IBM xSeries 336 server. OVM Server 2.2.1 was previously installed on this server.
Trying to install 3.2.1 now and I get to the splash screen booting from the CD. I press [Enter] to begin the installation. Once the process reaches the point of 'Loading SCSI driver', the server reboots. I have tested the media on other machines without issue. I have also tested the server with OVM Server 2.2.1 media and the install progresses normally to the end.
I suspect there are missing drivers causing the install to fail. Is there a way to load the missing drivers during the install process?
Thanks in advance,
UPDATE: I have successfully installed OVM Server 3.0.2... Not exactly what I wanted but....
Edited by: SBaugher on Feb 20, 2013 11:04 AM

Oracle VM 3 is entirely different from 2.2.1.
take a look at the release notes for 3.2.1 There are few instances in which you have to specify different boot parameters for the installation to work.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E35328_01/E35329/E35329.pdf
You might have a MEGARAID product.
If you are installing Oracle VM Server on a Sun Fire X4800, you must provide extra parameters when
booting from the installation media (CDROM or ISO file), or when using a kickstart installation. These
parameters allow the megaraid_sas driver to load correctly.
If booting from the installation media, press F2 when the initial boot screen is displayed and provide the
following additional parameters as part of the boot command:
mboot.c32 xen.gz extra_guest_irqs=64,2048 nr_irqs=2048 --- vmlinuz --- initrd.img
If using a kickstart installation, add the additional kernel parameters to the PXE configuration file.

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.
