duplicate of bug 988259?
michal: no, actually it turns out this is bug in the template import
How this bug should be verified? It is not clear what used to fail the template import, before the fix. Thanks, Ilanit.
Is the following flow enough for verification?: 1. Create windows XP template on 3.2 rhevm. 2. Export Template. 3. Import Template in a 3.3 setup (is21). 4. Template imported successfully (Template Default Time zone = default time zone of the 3.3 rhevm, and not to the 3.2 rhevm).
Hi Ilanit, The bug was that when you imported the VM, the time_zone field in the vm_static table was set to empty string '' instead of NULL. This bug usually manifests itself in the UI when you try to edit properties of running VM (e.g. description) you get an error "Invalid update" related to the time zone field. Normally it should be enough to verify you have no records in vm_static with time_zone = '' (all default time zones should be now represented as NULL). For further verification you can try to run this imported VM and check if you can change its description.
Tested on is22. Found that vm_static table contain empty time_zone for all vms, including the imported VM: engine=# SELECT time_zone, vm_guid FROM vm_static; time_zone | vm_guid -----------+-------------------------------------- | 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 | a2454443-4681-4236-9aab-42127548bc59 | 746ec97e-9a91-4e39-8a0a-632508e051c4 | f8842cc6-3928-4470-b9cd-706dc5fadd1c | d1c706fe-831b-4901-9ab7-1de2eec93d24 | 11c84a8d-71ff-4030-9edf-5b21935089b0 | 098be9be-d059-45dc-ba24-f999e91ce699 | 818775fc-e429-4179-9075-57296f3dab2c | 9138af3d-9cb3-4cde-9f0b-375f499d9cfe | 3e624912-2534-44af-9dfb-5cf5a527f515 (10 rows) Run imported VM worked fine. Changing it's description (after moving VM to down) also worked fine. Martin, Can you please confirm this verification? Thanks, Ilanit.
Hi Ilanit, from plain select you cannot 'visually' differentiate between NULL and ''. Please try query # SELECT time_zone, vm_guid FROM vm_static WHERE time_zone = ''; this query should return 0 rows whereas the query # SELECT time_zone, vm_guid FROM vm_static WHERE time_zone IS NULL; should return the exact same rows as your select. Best regards Martin
thanks Martin! Verified on IS22: Completed the last step verification (in addition to comment #7): engine=# SELECT time_zone, vm_guid FROM vm_static WHERE time_zone = ''; time_zone | vm_guid -----------+--------- (0 rows) engine=# SELECT time_zone, vm_guid FROM vm_static WHERE time_zone IS NULL; time_zone | vm_guid -----------+-------------------------------------- | 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 | a2454443-4681-4236-9aab-42127548bc59 | 746ec97e-9a91-4e39-8a0a-632508e051c4 | f8842cc6-3928-4470-b9cd-706dc5fadd1c | d1c706fe-831b-4901-9ab7-1de2eec93d24 | 11c84a8d-71ff-4030-9edf-5b21935089b0 | 098be9be-d059-45dc-ba24-f999e91ce699 | 818775fc-e429-4179-9075-57296f3dab2c | 9138af3d-9cb3-4cde-9f0b-375f499d9cfe | 3e624912-2534-44af-9dfb-5cf5a527f515 (10 rows)
