Hello all and thank you in advance for your help.

I have been able to work out how to add vm via a call to the vms API. I am passing in a template via the api call and that is working. I do not have a network installed in the template. My use case for that was to hit “New vm”, fill in the hostname and network and let cloud-init set the hostname. That way I can create a new vm with just a few clicks.

What I can’t seem to figure out is how to define the network interface in the add vm api call. It looks like I should have to add the network interface in a second call after creation. If I add the interface in the <initialization> section for cloud-init I seems to have a chicken and egg problem. When I add the <initialization> section and the data for the ip address, netmask, default gateway, I get;

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<fault>
<detail>[Cannot add VM. Static IPv4 address is missing in cloud-init configuration.]</detail>
<reason>Operation Failed</reason>
</fault>

That would seem to indicate to me that I need and interface before I can configure it. That makes sense. But how do I get an interface before I create the vm ?

What might I be missing?

The desired result is create a vm and set the hostname and ip info via the api so that I get a fully formed vm connected to the network. That gets me to the point of being able to download build scripts to install and start puppet.

Good afternoon everyone,
I would like to know if someone recommends integrating ssh from clients to Active Directory, or LDAP, using oVirt Node, since from what I read it is not recommended to install repositories outside of those that are in the same, due to compatibility.

A little tip. It's not english but is useful.

I deployed the GPU passthrought mode，the NVIDIA drivers was success installed in the ovirt-node and the virtual machine；
BUT ，now ，I have a trouble； The spice doesn't work well，I cant view the VM through the spice window，It always stop at the ‘windows picture’；but the VM is already started， I can get into the VM by ‘mstsc’；
my pictures are below
Who can help me to slove this problem？

Good Morning,
I would like to know how best to implement the Ovirt host, whether using an installation, or using ovirt-none. Today I have two hosts in a cluster, using ovirt-node, but I have seen information on the site that says it is less performatic.

Thank you.

Hello everyone, I'm having some network problems with Ovirt 4.2.3.1. After some time of use Ovirt blocks the connection of the machine with any other, including with machines inside the own node. I used tcpdump and realized I was having arp lock and I touched the vdsm-no-ar-spoofing interface policy to none. I would like to know the best policy to set in the interface or if you have any documentation on the subject.

Kind regards.

what is Out-of-sync meaning?
and what's the DC? datacenter?

I checked my node's network-config ,they are all same
I use the network - 172.16.6.0/24

When I am adding host to ovirt manaber, installation always getting failed.

Anyone can help me to get through??
