Trouble connecting hypervisor

Open ahellquist opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

I have been trying to set up IsardVDI for a few weeks but it always fail.

Whatever I try, the registered hypervisor on localhost fail to connect. If I leave the default configuration, it only says, TryConnection forever.

if I change the hypervisor config to FQDN I get ssh authentication fail when connect: Server 'vdi.wherever.xxx' not found in known_hosts

if I change the config to localhost, I get socket error in ssh port, sshd disabled or firewall

I have tried the suggested workarounds in Admin FAQ but that did not help.

The hardware is a IBM System x3650 M3 -[7945K3G] running debian buster that previously used to run VMWare and also proxmox so it is virt capable for sure.

Could my problems be caused by an ip mismatch since our corporate network is part of a worldwide 10.0.0.0 network and that will cause isardvdi to talk to something else than the local hypervisor ? The only mentioning of 10.x.x.x adresses seemed to be wireguard networks but I might be wrong on that. If this is the cause, how can I adjust the docker-compose file to make things working again ?

Do I need to have libvirt installed on the server for IsardVDI to work or is that plain wrong and will conflict with the docker services ?

i have been using kvm in various forms in the past but the docker stuff and my constant problem to connect the hypervisor is driving me nuts.

Any hints appreciated

Changing DOCKER NET was enough?

Did not have the information I needed by the time I was struggling with this issue, I had to move on with another VDI solution so I have not checked that out. If changing DOCKER NET was suggested in the Isard Doc, I would have tried and possibly succeeded. I will however give it another try when time permits.

Also if #408 was in plain English, things would make a lot more sense to me.

I am about to set up a new test to see if I can get this running
