Hi All,

We are trying to do "virsh managedsave" on a VM  but it is failing
with the
following error.

libvirtError: operation failed: domain save job: unexpectedly failed^M

libvirt and qemu versions are as follows:
libvirt-1.1.1-29.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-1.5.3-60.el7_0.11.x86_64

VM is provided with a small pxe image such that it pxe boots from a remote
server.
VM doesn't have any disk allocated with it and uses 4GB RAM,16 VCPUs.

It mounts the root storage and all required folders from a remote server's
NFS storage.

Following is the file system once the VM is booted successfully.

VM1:~ # df -h
Filesystem                 Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs                     2.0G  1.5G  601M  71% /
root                       2.0G  1.5G  601M  71% /
tmpfs                      7.1G  3.4M  7.1G   1% /dev/shm
shm                        7.1G  3.4M  7.1G   1% /dev/shm
10.0.0.3:/.storage   90G   20G   66G  23% /storage


We have also tried to enable debug mode for libvirt process
but no error message is getting logged except the error message above.
Could someone help me debug this issue?

Regards,
Vijaya
