15.5. Methods
15.5.1. Creating a Virtual Machine
Creating a new virtual machine requires the
name, template, and cluster elements. Identify the template and cluster elements with the id attribute or name element. Identify the CPU profile ID with the cpuprofiles attribute.
Example 15.4. Creating a virtual machine with 512 MB that boots from CD-ROM
POST /ovirt-engine/api/vms HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/xml
Content-type: application/xml
<vm>
<name>vm2</name>
<description>Virtual Machine 2</description>
<type>desktop</type>
<memory>536870912</memory>
<cluster>
<name>default</name>
</cluster>
<template>
<name>Blank</name>
</template>
<os>
<boot dev="cdrom"/>
</os>
<cdroms>
<cdrom>
<file id="example_windows_7_x64_dvd_u_677543.iso"/>
</cdrom>
</cdroms>
<cpu_profile id="0000001a-001a-001a-001a-00000000035e"/>
</vm>
Example 15.5. Creating a virtual machine with 512 MB that boots from a virtual hard disk
POST /ovirt-engine/api/vms HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/xml
Content-type: application/xml
<vm>
<name>vm2</name>
<description>Virtual Machine 2</description>
<type>desktop</type>
<memory>536870912</memory>
<cluster>
<name>default</name>
</cluster>
<template>
<name>Blank</name>
</template>
<os>
<boot dev="hd"/>
</os>
<cpu_profile id="0000001a-001a-001a-001a-00000000035e"/>
</vm>
Note
Memory in the previous example is converted to bytes using the following formula:
512MB * 1024 2 = 536870912 bytes
15.5.2. Updating a Virtual Machine
The
name, description, cluster, type, memory, cpu, os, high_availability, display, timezone, domain, stateless, placement_policy, memory_policy, usb, payloads, origin and custom_properties elements are updatable post-creation.
Example 15.6. Updating a virtual machine to contain 1 GB of memory
PUT /ovirt-engine/api/vms/082c794b-771f-452f-83c9-b2b5a19c0399 HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/xml
Content-type: application/xml
<vm>
<memory>1073741824</memory>
</vm>
Note
Memory in the previous example is converted to bytes using the following formula:
1024MB * 1024 2 = 1073741824 bytes
Note
Memory hot plug is supported in Red Hat Virtualization. If the virtual machine's operating system supports memory hot plug, you can use the example above to increase memory while the virtual machine is running.
Example 15.7. Hot plugging vCPUs
Add virtual CPUs to a running virtual machine without having to reboot it. In this example, the number of sockets is changed to 2.
PUT /ovirt-engine/api/vms/082c794b-771f-452f-83c9-b2b5a19c0399 HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/xml
Content-type: application/xml
<vm>
<cpu>
<topology sockets="2" cores="1"/>
</cpu>
</vm>Note
CPU hot unplug is currently not supported in Red Hat Virtualization.
Example 15.8. Pinning a virtual machine to multiple hosts
A virtual machine that is pinned to multiple hosts cannot be live migrated, but in the event of a host failure, any virtual machine configured to be highly available is automatically restarted on one of the other hosts to which the virtual machine is pinned. Multi-host pinning can be used to restrict a virtual machine to hosts with, for example, the same hardware configuration.
PUT /ovirt-engine/api/vms/082c794b-771f-452f-83c9-b2b5a19c0399 HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/xml
Content-type: application/xml
<vm>
<high_availability>
<enabled>true</enabled>
<priority>1</priority>
</high_availability>
<placement_policy>
<hosts>
<host><name>Host1</name></host>
<host><name>Host2</name></host>
</hosts>
<affinity>pinned</affinity>
</placement_policy>
</vm>15.5.3. Removing a Virtual Machine
Removal of a virtual machine requires a
DELETE request.
Example 15.9. Removing a virtual machine
DELETE /ovirt-engine/api/vms/082c794b-771f-452f-83c9-b2b5a19c0399 HTTP/1.1 HTTP/1.1 204 No Content
15.5.4. Removing a Virtual Machine but not the Virtual Disk
Detach the virtual disk prior to removing the virtual machine. This preserves the virtual disk. Removal of a virtual machine requires a
DELETE request.
Example 15.10. Removing a virtual machine
DELETE /ovirt-engine/api/vms/082c794b-771f-452f-83c9-b2b5a19c0399 HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/xml
Content-type: application/xml
<action>
<vm>
<disks>
<detach_only>true</detach_only>
</disks>
</vm>
</action>
