Re: last update in my work

Sorry for the delay, been on vacation.  It looks like the security policies
are being successfully applied so the previous problem appears to be solved.

The capture process attempted to reboot the VM in order to delete the
pagefile to save space.  The VM never responded to ping after the reboot.
 Something is misconfigured regarding the VM or VM host's networking.  Log
into the VM and check ipconfig.  Does the VM have a private IP address?
 Can you now ping it and SSH in from the management node?

You mentioned slowness in a previous message.  If the VM currently has a
private IP address and the networking currently looks OK, it's possible
that the VM took over 5 minutes to reboot and the capture process timed
out.  If this is the case you'll need to figure out the reason for the
slowness.  Try rebooting the VM.  Where does it seem to hang -- shutting
down or coming back up?  If it is slow coming back up, disable the GUI boot
option so you can see where the boot sequence hangs:
-Run msconfig.exe
-Select the Boot tab
-Check "No GUI boot"
-Check "Boot log"
-Check "OS boot information"
-Save the changes

Also, clear the System event log just prior to rebooting the computer, then
reboot it.  Watch the screen while it reboots to see if there is a long
pause where nothing is happening.  What is displayed during the pause and
immediately afterwards?  After it boots, look at the system event log and
see if there is a long gap between timestamps where the delay occurred.
 What event log messages are generated before and after the delay?

The VM only has 1GB of RAM.  This should be sufficient but you could also
try to increase it.

If you mean cloud service, yes.

the second one has extra resource, and dose the end user feel that motion.

In order to live migrate on VMware, you need a vCenter/vSphere license.  If
you have this and it includes the DRS feature, you're better off just
letting vCenter handle balancing things.  This is currently supported on
VCL.  You just define a single VCL VM host which represents the vCenter
server.

VCL doesn't currently initiate migrations.  It will eventually be supported
for kvm, and possibly on VMware.

computational nodes one run KVM hypervisor and the second run esxi dose

hypervisor

Live migrations across VMware / kvm isn't possible AFAIK.  VCL can
currently automatically convert to/from VMware/kvm.

and for computational node I note that the images stored in the
computational nodes and for example if this node failed then the images

There is nothing built into VCL to automatically fail over a downed
management node, VCL web server, or database.

If you have a problematic compute node,  VCL will detect the failure when
the next reservation is assigned to the node and put that computer in the
failed state. Subsequent reservations won't be assigned to that node until
you fix the problem and set the state back to available.

Re: last update in my work

Posted by zvclproject zvclproject <zv...@gmail.com>.
hello Andy,

thank you a lot for your help its working now, in fact I need to ask you
some question please;
1- for the vcl can we call it a could service??
2- if yes if we have two computation nodes dose it make a VM motion between
them for example if there a computation node becomes overloaded and the
second one has extra resource, and dose the end user feel that motion.
3-i'm thinking about a heterogeneous hypervisor i.e if we have two
computational nodes one run KVM hypervisor and the second run esxi dose
that supported by VCL and can we make a VM motion between two different
hypervisor

is this setup support clustering for high availability to management node
and for computational node I note that the images stored in the
computational nodes and for example if this node failed then the images
will not be available.

thank you again
Tariq

Re: last update in my work

Posted by Andy Kurth <an...@ncsu.edu>.
First, edit /root/.ssh/known_hosts and remove the line referring to the VM.
 It should be line 3.

Then create the following file if it does not exist:
/root/.ssh/config

Add the following to this file:
StrictHostKeyChecking no
UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null

Retry the SSH command.

Re: last update in my work

Posted by zvclproject zvclproject <zv...@gmail.com>.
hello Andy,

thank you very much for your replay, in fact I want to explain for you the
slowness case that we experience it is at starting windows and shutdown it
once I switch the VM on it take about 15 minutes to see the win3003
starting logo and in shutdown it shutdown fast until you see a blue screen
after that it take about half hour to switch off.

once the windows started it is work normal and I can say it fast in working
the issue is in starting and ending the windows.

yesterday I did what you asked but i didn't get any important log or even
see any boot logs.

dose i need to make some tuning for KVM which i installed it in fedora
Linux 6.6 also i tried install Ubuntu using the KVM also i experience the
same problem.

thank you

Tariq
