Hello thanks for choosing Dell.

OME deployment on OpenStack is not officially supported or tested. 

https://dell.to/47IZEnQ (not found here)
Even if the deployment is successful, customers may or may not encounter issues such as the one highlighted in your post.

Respectfully,

@DELL-Young E​ I know OpenStack is not explicitly supported, but deployment in KVM is - and under the hood OpenStack uses libvirt, instances are just KVM machines. If it may be of interest, I had the same issues on Proxmox 6.x, that is an interface for setting up VMs with qemu/libvirt

can you try with

openstack image set --property hw_disk_bus=sata  --property hw_firmware_type=uefi

(and reinstall)

@frigo_ Thank you, you saved the day! ​ 

This one resolved issue when OME was not able to boot.

--property hw_firmware_type=uefi

And second command resolved issue when disk was not visible...

Appliance resources are not sufficient to either install or continue to run the Power Manager plugin efficiently: The OME VM is not configured with enough disk space to support this plugin. 400 GB of disk space must be allocated to the VM to support the appliance and all plugins (including this one). The VM has 0 GB allocated, 400 GB is required for the appliance and all other installed plugins

--property hw_disk_bus=sata

All of this can be also set in Openstack -> image settings in web, by adding them in metadata.

Best Regards,

Damir

Apologies to hijack this thread but we're unable to even get OME 4 running under Openstack, I was hoping someone would have any suggestions / instructions on how to launch this.

We're understanding it may not work as expected, however we have OME 3.10 working fine but 4 won't boot at all.

Thanks in advance

@QuantumQuill​ 

We got the image running but we get an error saying, "Guest has not initialized the display (yet)." We currently only have the first qcow2 loaded.

The commands we ran, 

openstack image create --disk-format qcow2 --container-format bare --public --file openmanage_enterprise.qcow2 openmanage

openstack image set --property hw_disk_bus=sata  --property hw_firmware_type=uefi openmanage

Lastly, from the Dashboard, we launched an instance from the image, giving it Volume Size (GB) of 415. 

Hello, if you are talking about OpenStack, OME is not supported on OpenStack, I'm afraid.

@DELL-Young E​ Is OpenStack support on the schedule? Thanks!

@wndf​ do you have a write up of your steps? I got the 1st qcow2 to attach and boot, but I'm not getting to the appliance TUI ...

Hello, s.k.g.

I'm afraid I don't see the plan on the horizon anytime soon. I'm sorry I can't be of help this time.

@DELL-Young E​  I'm hitting this bug now. Is there a work around besides re-install?

Thank you

Hello, We' ve just tried changing the default admin password in my lab OME 4.3.2 via TUI and have no issues at all. 

Are you trying to deploy OME 4.0 or 4.3.2?

If this is a fresh installation, our recommendation would to deploy 4.3.2 which is the latest available version.

Respectfully,

@s.k.g.​ I didn't note the steps at the time and now it's more than a year, in the end I installed it in Proxmox (aka KVM with extra steps), sorry

@wndf​ no worries - thanks for the info
