 ===== Summary =====
 We have have a RHEV instance running on [[hardware:infrastructure#hv_0103|hv{01..04}]] as the main hypervisor nodes.  They're listed as **Hosts** in the RHEV Manager.
+Currently the RHEV Hosts installed version is 4.3.5-1
 The [[http://mgr01.front.sepia.ceph.com|RHEV Manager]] is a [[https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.1/html/self-hosted_engine_guide/|Self-Hosted VM]] inside the cluster.  The username for logging in is ''admin'' and the password is our standard root password.

 ===== Storage =====
-Two new storage chassis are being used as the storage nodes.  [[hardware:infrastructure#ssdstore_01_02_frontsepiacephcom|ssdstore{01,02}.front.sepia.ceph.com]] are populated with 8x 1.5TB NVMe drives in software RAID6 configuration.
-A third host, [[hardware:senta|senta01]], is configured as the arbiter node for the Gluster volume.  2x 240GB SSD drives are in a software RAID1 and mounted at ''/gluster''.
+**Note: this was the original configuration.  Storage is now provided by an [[services:longrunningcluster#lrc_iscsi_volume_for_the_rhev_cluster|iscsi service]] on the long-running cluster **

 ==== Gluster ====
-All VMs (except the Hosted Engine which is on the ''hosted-engine'' volume) are backed by a sharded Gluster volume, ''ssdstorage''.  A sharded volume was chosen to decrease the time needed for the volume to heal after a storage failure.  This should reduce VM downtime in the event of a storage node failure.

 If there is a storage node failure, RHEV will use the remaining Gluster node and Gluster will automatically heal as part of the recovery process.  It's possible a VM will be paused if its VM disk image changed while one of the storage nodes was down.  Run ''gluster volume heal ssdstorage info'' to see heal status.
-A single software RAID6 was decided upon as the most redundant and reliable storage configuration.  See the graph below comparing the old storage as well as tests of various RAID5 and RAID6 configurations.

 The Hypervisors (hv{01..04}) and Storage nodes (ssdstore{01..02}) have entries in ''/etc/hosts'' in case of DNS failure.
+Note: it is important that the version of glusterfs packages on the hypervisors does not exceed the version on the storage nodes (i.e. client is older or equal to server).

 ==== Emergency RHEV Web UI Access w/o VPN ====
 In the event the OpenVPN gateway VM is inaccessible/locked up/whatever, you can open an SSH tunnel (''ssh -D 9999 $YOURUSER@8.43.84.133'') and set your browser's proxy settings to SOCKS5 localhost:9999 to get at the RHEV web UI.  That public IP is on store01 and is a leftover artifact from when store01 ran OpenVPN.
+==== GFIDs listed in ''gluster volume heal ssdstorage info'' forever ====
+This is https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1361518.
+As long as the unsynced entries are GFIDs only and they only appear under the arbiter (senta01) server, you can paste **just** the GFIDs into a ''/tmp/gfids'' file and run the following script:
+<code>
+#!/bin/bash
+set -ex
+VOLNAME=ssdstorage
+for id in $(gluster volume heal $VOLNAME info | egrep '[0-9a-f]{8}-([0-9a-f]{4}-){3}[0-9a-f]{8}' -o); do
+  file=$(find /gluster/arbiter/.glusterfs -name $id -not -path '/gluster/arbiter/.glusterfs/indices/*'  -type f)
+  if [ $(getfattr -d -m . -e hex $(echo $file) | grep trusted.afr.$VOLNAME* | grep "0x000000" | wc -l) == 2 ]; then
+    echo "deleting xattr for gfid $id"
+    for i in $(getfattr -d -m . -e hex $(echo $file) |grep trusted.afr.$VOLNAME*|cut -f1 -d'='); do
+      setfattr -x $i $(echo $file)

 I used to have a summary of steps here but it's safer to just follow the [[https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/|Red Hat docs]].
+==== VM has paused due to no storage space error ====
+We started seeing this issue on VMs like teuthology and it looks like it's a known bug I updated /etc/vdsm/vdsm.conf.d/99-local.conf and restarted systemctl restart vdsmd as described here:
