oVirt Logo

Die Open-Source Virtualisierungslösung oVirt, wurde in der Version 4.3.1 freigegeben. oVirt selbst ist eine Alternative für VMWare und vSphere und ermöglicht das Managment von KVM Virtualisierung in Multi-Node-Umgebungen. Das neue Hauptrelease 4.3 bringt viele Verbesserungen, behebt aber auch einige Fehler.

What’s New in 4.3.1?

Enhancements

oVirt Cockpit Plugin

  • BZ 1598141 [RFE] HE Node Zero should support ‘tags’ and ‘skip-tags’ properties
    Feature: Support –tags and –skip-tags options on hosted-engine-setup

    Reason: Have the ability to run ansible roles with tags.
    Until now Hosted-engine run ansible playbooks with only variables.

oVirt Engine

  • BZ 1467332 [RFE][Default Route] [IPv6] – Allow and enable default route network with only ipv6 boot protocol
    Feature: Support default route role on ipv6 only networks, but only for ipv6 static interface configuration.

    Reason: oVirt engine should support ipv6 only networks for its existing capabilities

    Result:
    – it is now possible to set the default route role on an ipv6 only network provided it has an ipv6 gateway.
    – for engine to correctly report the sync status of the interfaces, all interfaces should be configured with ipv6 static configuration only and an ipv6 gateway should be configured only on the network bearing the default route role.
    – ipv6 dynamic configuration is currently not supported.
    – the ipv6 gateway on the default route role network is applied as the default route for the v6 routing table on the host.
    – it is now possible to set an ipv6 gateway on non-management networks (was previously possible only on the management network).
    – if more that one ipv6 gateway is set on the interfaces of a host, engine will be in an undefined state: there will be more than one default route entry in the v6 routing table on the host which will cause the host to report that there are no v6 gateways at all meaning that the interfaces will appear as out of sync in engine.
  • BZ 1671074 [RFE] Disable anonymous ciphers for engine <-> VDSM communication
    In this release, the available SSL ciphers used in communication between the Red Hat Virtualization Manager and VDSM have been limited, and now exclude weak or anonymous ciphers.
  • BZ 1637015 [RFE] add option to disable toast notifications per user
    With this release, users can now silence toast notifications.
    When a toast notification appears, the user can now:

    Dismiss All
    or
    Do Not Disturb
    for 10 minutes
    for 1 hour
    for 1 day
    until Next Log In
  • BZ 1669047 Support creating a cinderlib data-base in the engine-setup process
    In order to create and use Managed block storage domain, new database should be created for cinderlib to use.

    As similar to the engine database creation, this new database can be created using the engine setup process.
  • BZ 1673303 Prevent setting ipv6 gw on a non default-route-role network
    Feature: Manage the ipv6 default route of a host via restricting the ipv6 default gateways on the host interfaces.

    Reason: Only a single ipv6 gateway should be allowed on all interfaces of a host and it should be on the network assigned the default route role of the network. Allowing to set multiple gateways causes multiple default route entries on the host routing tables which in turn might cause
    – loss of connectivity with the host on some subnets
    – host reporting no gateways at all on its interfaces
    – engine reporting networks as being out of sync

    Result:
    1. When the default route role is moved away from a network, its ipv6 gateway is automatically removed from the interface.
    2. After moving the default route role to a new network the user should set a static ipv6 gateway on this network.
    3. If the host and engine are not on the same subnet, engine will loose connectivity with the host on moving the default route role between networks. This is due to result (1). The user should take precautions to avoid this situation.
  • BZ 1561539 [RFE] Allow adding a new host or reinstalling existing one and switching it to Maintenance without activation
    Feature:

    Allow adding, approving or reinstalling a host without automatically activating it afterwards.

    Reason:

    Sometimes there is performance overhead when activating a host after its addition / re-install / approval, especially when the connection to the storage-domain is problematic. Due to this it’s necessary to enable users to add / re-install /approve a host without the host being automatically activated afterwards.

    Result:

    The API will support activate=false matrix
    parameter in the URL of the request, relevant for add host, install host, approve host operations.

    The WebAdmin will provide “Activate Host After Install” checkbox in add and install host dialogues, and propagate the value of the checkbox to the Engine.

    The default behavior remains activating the host.

  • BZ 1610917 External VMs automatically deleted when powered down
    Vdsm takes ownership of all the VMs running on a given host. This includes any VM defined outside the System, for example by the user using command line tools.
    Vdsm also undefines the VM when they are shut down – e.g. it removes their configuration from libvirt running on the host.
    This is now done only for VMs created within the system. In other words, Vdsm now manages (stops, migrate…) externally defined VMs, but leaves them defined on shut down.
