Yeah, sorry misread you where looking for how to do it from windows that why I added the exe 😃

They need to just get off of my lawn.

LOL, funny how I'd never have understood the joke before moving to NA and buying a house 🙂

HAHAHA

@dyasny said in Virt-Manager on multiple pc's:

if you have an ovirt-engine somewhere central, that can reach to all the other locations, you can create a datacentre per location and place standalone hosts in there, using local storage.

Never thought about that. That's a great idea.

@scottalanmiller said in Kvm network troubleshooting:

Your server has an IP address of 192.168.122.1? Is that correct? Nothing wrong with that technically, but it would be exceptionally unusual. That's almost always the gateway address. What is the address of your gateway?

That's libvirts virtual bridge address for the NAT network.

Oh, duh, I missed the bridge. Carry on. 🙂

@atahaynah said in Cockpit:

@DustinB3403 it was stopped

But fortunately i got it resolved i had to downgrade one packege and after that restarted the service and it worked

What did you downgrade to fix the issue?

@scottalanmiller RHV now, after a rebrand in 2016-ish

@DustinB3403 said in How to Install Desktop Environment to a Fedora Server:

@Pete-S I was the person to mention creating a desktop environment on the system to use as the management domain, and run virt-manager there. And I've repeated it numerous times, across several topics.

As for using virsh, that is an option too.

Sorry, I didn't follow the other previous thread(s).

@Dashrender think of this as XOCE to XenServer/XCP-ng but with a desktop instead of a web interface.

Literally nothing different and is completely normal.

So following on from the Other thread.

Looks like i'm heading to the Install KVM, setup a Linux VM and use that to manage the KVM server from that.

@FATeknollogee the install itself has been covered too many times to mention 🙂 Maybe if he runs into a specific issue and solves it, that would be a good thing to share

I have it restored and going again with a nice starting area (big castle and useful things).

realmc.minecraftr.us (that's my free afraid.org domain name for it specifically)

Or if you prefer, tgserv.timothygruber.com.

Oh, it's version 1.12.2. I didn't update it yet because there's a couple plugins I run that haven't updated yet.

@Dashrender said in Why I Feel KVM Is the Easiest HyperVisor to Learn the Basics On:

The question is - why is the quality so bad? Isn't the process supposed to catch bad quality?

Their process is consider the windows insider group (extreme power users) to be a good enough replacement for proper QE teams, and writing automated build tests.

Right, the new process isn't to catch bad things, it's actually to see bad things as "not all that bad." Presumably because a shift from viewing their products as being for business to being for entertainment. Remember when Windows 95 was a key tool for businesses, but by Windows 98 they had made sure to put a "for entertainment purposes only" label on the product to make sure no one confused it with something that was intended for business use?

I feel like that's where they are now. At least internally, no one is really thinking of this as a business tool.

Honestly, this is all kinda silly.
You are "creating" a problem that simply doesn't exist!!

Cockpit terminal tab, Copy & paste in a Windows 10 vm works.
I just tried it again in v1809 (OS Build 17763.107)

No, he is not. Also, no, it does not "just work" as you say. If it did, the post would never have been made.

I consistently have random issues using copy and paste into a web interface terminal. Both Cockpit and UNMS. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.

I do it little enough, that i never care to toubleshoot it.

I'll second this - The troubles in pasting into a web based console are real - and sometimes seemingly random.

I am willing to blame Windows on this problem - but the problem is real.

@scottalanmiller said in KVM with Cockpit on Fedora 29 Network Type Options Greyed Out:

When building a new VM using Cockpit's web interface to KVM on Fedora 29, the Network Type option leaves most options like Bridge to LAN, Generic ethernet connections, and Direct attachment greyed out. Anyone know why?

Did you try with network manager? Any missing package?

@obsolesce said in Fedora 28 KVM Cockpit Doesn't Show All VMs:

Everyone is always waiting for someone else to report bugs and issues, that's why they take so long to get fixed. Not as bad with FOSS, but a big reason with MS for example.

But I don't know that it is a bug. It's reasonable that it might be, but it's just one possibility.

@scottalanmiller said in Delete All Snapshots on KVM with Virsh:

Is this a personal alias to Remove-VMSnapshot perhaps?

No I had that first but edited it incorrectly. Missed the VM in front.

But ya I thought vmcheckpoint was an alias but it's not.

Remove-VMSnapshot is correct.

So weird, they renamed it to checkpoint, but never changed the PS commands.

@stacksofplates I can imagine. Good luck!

PS. I had a look on the guest side of thing just now because that is what Microsoft talked about.

Most OSs are virtualization aware. I had a look at debian running as guest under Xen with a clean install without any Xen guest tools. Debian installation automatically sense it's running on virtualized hardware and sets it's I/O scheduler to "none", thereby letting the host handle whatever I/O scheduling needed. This also makes sense because the guest doesn't know what kind of storage the host is using.

Thanks to you guys I got it sorted out now!
