I was thinking drbd could be kind of a poor mans shared storage, that happends to be highly available. Set drbd up with protocol C in a primary / primary arraignment.

Despite the silence we have been pretty busy with cooking the OpenNode Management Server and its web based management interface - FuncMan. But before we are going to release OpenNode Management Server preview its time for OpenNode 1.0 second beta release - which we hope will become later as OpenNode 1.0 stable release. OpenNode 1.0 beta2 is going to have a newest OpenVZ kernel with updated KVM stack and out-of-box support for virt-manager (for remote KVM VM management). Registering OpenNode host as a FUNC (Fedora Unified Network Controller) client via opennode cli utility will be also supported. Thou OpenNode 1.0 beta2 ISO release is probably going to be happen during next week - it is already possible to switch existing OpenNode 1.0 beta1 installations to opennode-test repository (in /etc/yum.repos.d/opennode.repo file just disable opennode repo and enable opennode-test repo) and then just do 'yum update' in order to upgrade into 1.0 beta2. Everything else should be fairly stable but there can be some KVM windows VM troubles left to figure out - so be warned! After we released OpenNode 1.0 beta1 in March (which has proven itself as quite stable release - also in KVM stack sense) our efforts have been concentrated on developing OpenNode 1.1 and OpenNode Management Server code - in order to provide remote management options for OpenNode hosts. I'm pleased to say that most of the coding is done and currently OpenNode 1.1 is under testing/finalizing phase together with Management Server RPC API. OpenNode 1.1 release will contain some remarkable new features - such as unified template format based on OVF (Open Virtualization Format) standard for both OpenVZ and KVM templates. OpenNode 1.1 can create these templates from existing VMs (both KVM and OpenVZ), can download and update prepackaged templates from official OpenNode template library site and most importantly - can deploy both KVM and OpenVZ templates into VMs together with creating VM configurations and changing VM resource limits on-the-fly. OpenNode VM templates will contain info about target VM minimal resource requirements - like min CPU cores, min memory, etc. - during VM creation process user can specify resource values overriding (and exceeding) minimal requirements mandated by template. If Im not mistaken OpenNode 1.1 will be the first virtualization solution to date to provide full KVM VM templating (VM config + VM filesystem on LVM or file based block device) and deploying OpenVZ templates together with VM configuration generation on-the-fly (just input how much ram, cpu and disk you want for VM - let the opennode do the rest). OpenNode 1.1 release will be accompanied with OpenNode Management Server first public release - so OpenNode servers will get basic remote (and central) management option. OpenNode Management Server provides CLI interface through simple func commands and for full functionality there is a RPC API server - which acts as a upcoming FuncMan web based management interface backend - or one can develop or integrate OpenNode Management Server RPC API into its own custom set of management tools or management environments. We will publish Management Server RPC API together with Management Server release. For estimated release dates and roadmap updates please visit: opennode.activesys.org/roadmap/ And if all goes well we'll post some first FuncMan WUI screenshots soon... -- ---------------------------------------------- Andres Toomsalu, an...@ac... |

That is all true - but stopping VM and then waiting for sync is not what I would call "live" migration. Better solution should be to have a separate shared storage somehow - would it be FC, simple NFS or GFS2 etc. If HA is needed for shared storage there are solutions for that - including for example doing DRDB HA (active-passive two box) setup for shared storage server. -- ---------------------------------------------- Andres Toomsalu, an...@ac...

When using drbd with protocol C, i don't see why it shouldn't work. You just have to make sure to stop the VM on node A, promote drbd to primary on node B, and start the VMs there... >From drbd website, regarding protocol C. http://www.drbd.org/home/mirroring "Mirroring can be done tightly coupled (synchronous). That means that the file system on the active node is notified that the writing of the block was finished only when the block made it to both disks of the cluster. Synchronous mirroring (called protocol C in DRBD speak) is the right choice for HA clusters where you dare not lose a single transaction in case of the complete crash of the active (primary in DRBD speak) node."

In order KVM live migration to work you will need some sort of shared storage - DRBD is more like a synced storage eg network RAID - I would expect that KVM live migration wont work correctly with it - as DRDB sync has a network delay and filesystem changes wont be instant on both sides. Is simple NFS sharing for shared VM storage not an option? http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html/Virtualization_Guide/sect-Virtualization-KVM_live_migration-Share_storage_example_NFS_for_a_simple_migration.html -- ---------------------------------------------- Andres Toomsalu, an...@ac...

If Im not mistaken OpenNode 1.1 will be the first virtualization solution to date to provide full KVM VM templating (VM config + VM filesystem on LVM or file based block device) and deploying OpenVZ templates together with VM configuration generation on-the-fly (just input how much ram, cpu and disk you want for VM - let the opennode do the rest). OpenNode 1.1 release will be accompanied with OpenNode Management Server first public release - so OpenNode servers will get basic remote (and central) management option. OpenNode Management Server provides CLI interface through simple func commands and for full functionality there is a RPC API server - which acts as a upcoming FuncMan web based management interface backend - or one can develop or integrate OpenNode Management Server RPC API into its own custom set of management tools or management environments. We will publish Management Server RPC API together with Management Server release. For estimated release dates and roadmap updates please visit: opennode.activesys.org/roadmap/ And if all goes well we'll post some first FuncMan WUI screenshots soon... -- ---------------------------------------------- Andres Toomsalu, an...@ac... |

Hi again,
Any idea on what to try? Could you reproduce this problem on your system?
Thank you

Hello, I've already rebooted with the new kernel, but i'm afraid the problem persists... The guest machine, seems to hang (I have the clock and the task manager open), and as soon as I generate network traffic, it speeds up until "apparent time" reaches "real time"...kind of weird. Test scenario: Host: Centos 5.4 ovzkernel-2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.028stab069.6 kmod-kvm-83-164.asys.8 kvm-83-164.asys.8 Guest: Windows XP SP3 guest, up to date. Network driver: e1000. 1 vCPU 1024Mb RAM Procedure: 1) Start the guest 2) Connect via RDP 3) Open the clock applet and the task manager 4) Wait a couple of minutes, until there is some time drift 5) From the HN, ping -f ip.of.guest and see the clock speed up _fast_ until it reaches the current time. As I said, it seems as if the guest wasn't receiving timer interrupts at the rate needed (or at all). It's very noticable when it's idle and has no network traffic (only RDP traffic is forwarded to the guest). Hope that helps. Thank you. Julian J. M.

I mean that (because I first installed manually the kvm and kmod-kvm packages) i'm using kmod-kvm-83-164.asys.8, with ovhkernel ending in .5, (instead of .6). I know it was a mistake ;), more info below. While I'm waiting for reboot, I downloaded the XP VM to a local vanilla Centos5.4 server, and it doesn't show the slow clock problem. I'm hoping that the kernel upgrade resolves the issue. # uname -r 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.028stab069.5 Latest ovz kernel installed is ovzkernel-2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.028stab069.6 (but need to reboot to use it) # rpm -ql kmod-kvm /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.028stab069.6/extra/kmod-kvm /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.028stab069.6/extra/kmod-kvm/ksm.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.028stab069.6/extra/kmod-kvm/kvm-amd.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.028stab069.6/extra/kmod-kvm/kvm-intel.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.028stab069.6/extra/kmod-kvm/kvm.ko # modprobe -l | grep kvm /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.028stab069.5/weak-updates/kmod-kvm/ksm.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.028stab069.5/weak-updates/kmod-kvm/kvm.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.028stab069.5/weak-updates/kmod-kvm/kvm-amd.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.028stab069.5/weak-updates/kmod-kvm/kvm-intel.ko Thanks for your help, Julián.

What do you mean by: "kvm is up to date, although not build specifically for the running kernel" ? You must run correct version of opennode ovzkernel with specially build kvm module for it - otherwise problems are quaranteed (we build kvm module specially for every ovzkernel release). So please enable opennode-test and do "yum update opennode" - as opennode rpm has pre-set kernel and kvm module dependencys - so it ensures that matching ovzkernel and opennode kvm module are both installed. We provide ovzkernel through opennode repos - not loading it directly from official openvz repo - this is intentional for delaying kernel upgrades if we have not yet build kvm module for a new openvz kernel.

Hello Andres,
I already use opennode-test, but it's true that I have to reboot to
get latest ovzkernel (kvm is up to date, although not build
specifically for the running kernel). I have 3 openvz ve's in
production, so I'll have to wait until tonight to reboot the server.
Thanks,
Julián J. M.

Hi Juilán, Please disable in /etc/yum.repos.d/opennode opennode repo and enable opennode-test repo - then do yum update opennode and let it update to newer ovzkernel and kvm module (and reboot system afterwords to load new kernel) - see if it fixes your problems. But keep in mind that there can be other problems with opennode-test repo package versions - so avoid it doing on production servers.

Hello, I have a working OpenVZ installation, and recently installed the kvm packages from opennode. I managed to install 2 VMs, one with WinXP and another with Win2003, both 32bits. The problem is that the guests slows down when there is no network traffic, and recovers when I, for example, ping flood the guest IP address. I don't know the cause, but it would seem that the guest is not getting timer interrupts, and can only keep up when there is another source of interrupts (network traffic).

Hi Ran, Opennode kernel update to newer stable is actually in opennode-test repo already - but there seems to be kvm related problems we are trying to iron out before releasing it as next stable. But if you want to try it out then just change opennode.repo file content replacing opennode to opennode-test in repo url and do just yum update. Please give us feedback if it solves your problem or not.

That's all. After installing though you have to source the /etc/bash_completion.d/vzctl.sh file or logout and back in. Then it should just work.

Bash completion for vzctl would be nice feature - I'll put it into TODO - to include bash-completion rpm into OpenNode ISO and yum repo. Is there any additional configuration for this to work or its just 'yum install bash-completion' ? -- ---------------------------------------------- Andres Toomsalu, an...@ac...

It isn't a stock CentOS package but both the EPEL and DAG third-party repos have it and you could add it to the OpenNode repo.
