Description Sarvesh Pandit 2015-11-20 12:11:58 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1129597 +++

Description of problem:
When trying to add a new storage domain with nfsvers=4.1, we get a faliure msg 

vdsm try to run a mount command with both nfsvers=3,nfsvers=4.1 , that is not supported by "mount".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
oVirt Engine Version: 3.5.0-0.0.master.20140804172041.git23b558e.el6
vdsm-4.16.1-6.gita4a4614.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
happens all the time 

Steps to Reproduce:
setup: I've used up and running setup with 2 hosts and 2 iSCSI SD's , and 1 VM 

2.through GUI, Storage tab I've added "New Domain"  
3.Default Domain Function / Storage Type - Data/NFS
4.Fill in valid name and Export Path
5.Expand Advanced parameter
6.Check "Override Default Options"
7.Add "nfsvers=4.1" in "Additional mount options"
8.click OK

Actual results:
Operation Failes with a general Error msg "Error while executing action Add Storage Connection: Problem while trying to mount target"

in vdsm.log we see a bad mount call with double param value (nfsvers=3,nfsvers=4.1)

Expected results:
actually we need a definition on what to expect :
- block it on the GUI level, and give a specific msg.
- override of one version param over the other.

Sean - what's the required behavior here?

--- Additional comment from Sean Cohen on 2014-08-27 11:38:22 EDT ---

Typically in the industry the default behavior is to attempt mounting first with NFS v4.1, then silently fall back to NFS v3.0 if necessary. 

In our case, when nfsvers=4.1 is selected and the backend does not support then we should notify the user with the relevant error - sometimes the user may specifically require the 4.1 and if we fail back to v3.0 we should also report that..

The question is how do we add the logic for it in vdsm?

--- Additional comment from Allon Mureinik on 2014-08-27 12:27:41 EDT ---

This is neither urgent nor a blocker for the feature - it's a bad handling for a REALLY bad configuration, which no user will ever perform.

--- Additional comment from Allon Mureinik on 2014-08-28 04:36:33 EDT ---

Talked to Sean - we need to block setting nfsvers (with a CDA) for 3.5, and should look into properly supporting NFS 4.1 for 3.6.

--- Additional comment from Allon Mureinik on 2014-09-04 10:22:35 EDT ---

Tal, when filling in the doctext, please make sure to specify which options have been blocked.

--- Additional comment from Aharon Canan on 2014-09-15 08:31:02 EDT ---

verified, 

nfsvers is blocked.

--- Additional comment from Sandro Bonazzola on 2014-10-17 08:40:49 EDT ---

oVirt 3.5 has been released and should include the fix for this issue.

Comment 2 Tal Nisan 2015-11-22 13:02:03 UTC
The original bug is not related to NFS v4.1 but to validating of redundant mount options, the NFS version can be specified when creating a new domain, currently there are only V3, V4 and auto negotiate options are viable.
Since what you ask is basically to allow using of NFS V4.1 I'll change this bugs info to indicate the correct info.

Comment 3 Tal Nisan 2015-11-22 13:03:30 UTC
Just to be more clear on that - the fix will be for 3.6 and 3.5 does not support NFS V4.1

Actually we do support it since 3.3 - I was testing that as part our supporting pNFS.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=908375#c14

In order to set it you need to use POSIX domain and not NFS as NFS domain blocks multiple version option (check bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1129597)

Comment 5 Sandro Bonazzola 2015-12-23 14:59:37 UTC
QE note: not in ovirt-engine-3.6.2-1

Failed,

When creating new NFS storage domain, under "Custom connection parameter", NFS version includes v3, v4 and Auto Negotiate - 

NFS version 4.1 is not there.

vdsm-4.17.15-0.el7ev.noarch
rhevm-3.6.2-0.1.el6.noarch

Comment 8 Tal Nisan 2016-01-03 13:30:17 UTC
The new build contained respin of VDSM only, since this is an Engine bug which was not contained in the build it shouldn't have been moved to ON_QA, moving back to MODIFIED until Engine will be respun

Comment 9 Aharon Canan 2016-01-17 10:21:15 UTC
Verified
vdsm-4.17.17-0.el7ev.noarch

NFS 4.1 appears under custom connection parameters,

Also relevant mount on vdsm (below)
