RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: fence-agents-4.0.15-15.el6
Doc Type: If docs needed, set a value
Doc Text:
Previously, the fence_rhevm utility was not able to request a compatible version of the Red Hat Virtualization (RHV) API due to a hard-coded value in fence_rhevm. Consequently, fence_rhevm failed to fence nodes in a cluster of RHV virtual machines (VMs) and displayed the "Failed: Unable to obtain correct plug status or plug is not available" error message. With this update, the hard-coded value has been changed into a variable, and as a result, the described problem no longer occurs.

Description Gianluca Cecchi 2017-04-28 07:28:39 UTC 
Description of problem:
I have an oVirt 4.1.1 environment and I'm configuring an rhcs virtual cluster inside it, currently in version 6.8 with fence-agents-4.0.15-12.el6.x86_64 and the related fence_rhevm agent.
It seems is not able to communicate wit the engine to operate fencing operations

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fence-agents-4.0.15-12.el6.x86_64
but tested also with latest release that is the same in terms of configuration:
fence-agents-4.0.15-13.el6.x86_64.rpm 

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. try the fence command to get status
fence_rhevm -a 10.4.192.43 -l "admin@internal" -p "mypassword" -z --shell-timeout=20 --power-wait=10 -v -o status -n p2vorasvi1
vms/?search=name%3Dp2vorasvi1


2.

3.

Actual results:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>404 Not Found</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Not Found</h1>
<p>The requested URL /api/vms/ was not found on this server.</p>
</body></html>


Failed: Unable to obtain correct plug status or plug is not available


Expected results:
Messga eof type:
STATUS: ON

Additional info:

Tried also to change the call so that it looks like:
# diff fence_rhevm fence_rhevm.orig 
84c84
< 	url += "//" + opt["--ip"] + ":" + str(opt["--ipport"]) + "/ovirt-engine/api/" + command
---
> 	url += "//" + opt["--ip"] + ":" + str(opt["--ipport"]) + "/api/" + command

And I get:
<html><head><title>Error</title></head><body>Unauthorized</body></html>

Failed: Unable to obtain correct plug status or plug is not available

Tried also this:

# diff fence_rhevm fence_rhevm.orig 
84c84
< 	url += "//" + opt["--ip"] + ":" + str(opt["--ipport"]) + "/ovirt-engine/api/v3/" + command
---
> 	url += "//" + opt["--ip"] + ":" + str(opt["--ipport"]) + "/api/" + command

but nothing change.
Then kinsly on oVirt user mailing listJuan Hernandez suggested to use the RH EL 7 fence_rhevm and indeed it works now

It seems related to bugzilla 1287059 and solved in fence-agents-4.0.11-47.el7 that has not been backported to RH EL 6.x yet.
Could you backport, please?
Comment 2 Gianluca Cecchi 2017-07-13 07:53:06 UTC 
any update on this? It should not be difficult, as already verified that the el7 package works with rhel 6.x systems..
Thanks
Gianluca

Technically it is Bug #1422499 that is the relevant RHEL 7 report that matches this issue.  Bug #1287059 is for a different issue, however both were resolved by the same pull request upstream, so the distinction is not particularly important.  But for clarity: this bug is describing the problems with the API URL change in RHEV 4.x, which is #1422499.

The fix here is:
