Any movement of Coherence?
by ToddAndMargo 08 May '15

Hi All, Anyone know if there has been any movement on Coherence (floating windows) yet with KVM? Would help with the no Wine 32 on RHEL 7. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39238 -T -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Computers are like air conditioners.

I've got Xen 4.4.2 in virt6-testing. I haven't had a chance to test it, and won't for another week or two; but if some volunteers can put it through its paces, I can ask Johnny to push it to the public repo sometome early next week. Thanks, -George

I've tested save/restore and few basic stuff, all good.

CentOS Images on AWS with partitions on /dev/xvda1 are awkwared to resize
by Nico Kadel-Garcia 30 Apr '15

30 Apr '15

I'm staring at the free CentOS images on AWS, and seeing that whoever set those up elected to use a partition for /dev/xvda1 rather than taking advantage of Amazon's tendency to use "/dev/xvda", "/dev/xvdb", etc. for each disk and use those directly as a file system. The result is that if you elect to allocate a larger base disk image, for example allocating 50 Gig to allow local home directories or space for "mock" or for bulky logs, and don't spend the time to select and allocate new disk images, it's awkward to simply expand the "/" partition. And with only 8 Gig allocated in the latest CentOS 6 images that I see in AWS, it's possible to get pretty pressed for space pretty quickly. Now, AWS published guidelines on manipulating partition size, and expanding a matching filesystem, but they're very clear to "unmount the parition before you touch it!!!" That's a bit difficult to unmount with a "/" partition, and they understandably don't have the kind of "boot from CD and work from the console" setup I'd normally use for that kind of work. So: why did the creators of that CentOS AMI elect to use such a small / partition? And how dangerous is it, with the system essentially idle, to use "parted" to expand the "/dev/xvda1" parition and then use "resize2fs" to expand the "/" file system while the system is alive? Note that, because I'm a complete weasel, I know at least one way around this: add a second disk, copy the OS to *that*, set grub to boot from the second disk, reboot from that, paritition the first disk as desired, copy the OS back, reset grub to boot from the first disk, and pray. I've had good success with the approach in the past, and have rebuilt rougly 15,000 Linux systems this way. But the work predates CentOS, and I dont't want to go through that again. So, has anyone resized "/" successfully and gracefully on AWS CentOS instances? Nico Kadel-Garcia

I appreciate some guidance on this.

Recommendations for virt on Opteron 275 systems.
by Lamar Owen 30 Apr '15

30 Apr '15

Hello, CentOS-virt list. The institution where I work has been donated some older IBM BladeCenters with IBM's LS-20 blade servers installed. These LS-20's are equipped with Opteron 275 processors (dual-core, dual-socket). In researching my virtualization options, I initially wanted to do oVirt, but after thoroughly investigating, it appears that oVirt, being based on KVM, will not work due to the Opteron 275 not supporting AMD-V virtualization extensions. So, further investigation showed that Xen4CentOS, using paravirtualization, should be supportable. So I'm looking for advice on deployment, including some pointers to some howtos or other documents on how to go about setting up a moderately large virtualization farm with Xen4CentOS on up to 200+ LS-20 blades, most of which have smallish internal storage, but with iSCSI connectivity to an EMC SAN; the deployment would start small and would grow as needed. I'm looking for the ability to do HA-type things, live migration, etc, to replace an aging VMware ESX setup. Windows guests are not a requirement. Pointers to solid VM management tools, especially for the HA and live migration options, would be nice. Purchasing upgraded blade servers isn't really an option for us at this time. (Now, if you or your organization wanted to donate some HS-21's or later, we would be glad to accept them; we are a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit public foundation...... :-) and then I could run oVirt).

Can we get a copy of ks.cfg for varous images into /root/ks.cfg?
by Nico Kadel-Garcia 28 Apr '15

28 Apr '15

I've recently been dealing with various CentOS images on AWS, and am being forcibly reminded that the "/root/anaconda-ks.cfg" has only a passing resemblance to whatever the kickstart configuration file actually contained. But getting a copy of the actual "ks.cfg" is invaluable for updating and testing variations of the kickstart setup, especially when manipulating disk partitioning or package selection. In particular, anaconda-ks.cfg fails to include any but the first '%post' script and discards all comments that may have been in the original ks.cfg file. Coupled with the problems of system-config-kickstart, and you have no provenance for the kickstart file that was actually *used* to create a particular system. For people building kickstart based environments, what would it take to get you to put this in your ks.cfg? %post cp /tmp/ks.cfg /mnt/sysimage/root/ks.cfg %end For older releases, '%end' is not needed. And before anyone asks, *YES* I've reached out to the anaconda developers in the past about this. I can try again, but in the meantime, it would really help me, and I think it would help others.

libvirtd for el7
by Sandro Bonazzola 24 Apr '15

24 Apr '15

Hi, I see that for EL6 gwd already has pushed a libvirtd package with version 1.2.10[1]. I got request from VDSM development to provide libvirt >= 1.2.9 for EL7 for oVirt 3.6. gwd, do you just rebuilt http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=594825 ? I'm looking at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=628689 may this work for you? [1] http://cbs.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=251 -- Sandro Bonazzola Better technology.
