Re: [libvirt-users] Efficient live disk backup with active blockcommit : Failed 'block-commit': Could not reopen file: Permission denied
This is not a libvirt/redhat question… With your method you can only revert to versions which are available in the standard repositories. You’ll have to download the packages manually to force a different version. Use with caution. There is a reason why the version isn’t in the standard repositories.

Re: [libvirt-users] Efficient live disk backup with active blockcommit : Failed 'block-commit': Could not reopen file: Permission denied
Hi , Based on the discussion and links referred as mentioned in earlier thread , I could able to perform the block commit and other operations successfully. Here are the changes required to perform block commit 1. Used Ubuntu 15.04 which has following versions of Libvirt and Qemu Compiled against library: libvirt 1.2.12 Using library: libvirt 1.2.12 Using API: QEMU 1.2.12 Running hypervisor: QEMU 2.2.0 -- Need to mention here : The Qemu version 2.3 certainly has some issues regarding the block commit as lowering the version to 2.2 resolved "active block job" issue. 2. Modified the configuration /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf - Had to modify the qemu.conf file which is under /etc/libvirt to resolve the permission denied error. - Added security_driver="none" Supportive reference : https://libvirt.org/drvqemu.html I have two question regarding this.- 1. Is there any way we can avoid modifying /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf for security driver changes and perform block commit . ? 2. Has anyone tried with Qemu 2.4 for blockcommit and related operations ? Does it work ? (I know this might not be relevant to libvirt users for sure it will help if someone trying block commit and related operations) Thanks, Keyur Bhalerao On Tue, Dec 8, 2015 at 11:32 PM, Dominique Ramaekers < dominique.ramaekers@cometal.be> wrote:> This is not a libvirt/redhat question… > > > > With your method you can only revert to versions which are available in > the standard repositories.

Re: [libvirt-users] Efficient live disk backup with active blockcommit : Failed 'block-commit': Could not reopen file: Permission denied
Hint, don’t upgrade you libvirt 1.2.12 to 1.2.16 yet. I use 1.2.16 with Qemu 2.2. and now I get a warning at the end of commiting the external snapshot: warning : virEventPollUpdateTimeout:268 : Ignoring invalid update timer -1 All seems to go well so I won’t downgrade libvirt but it still worries me… I’m going to test Qemu 2.4 in Ubuntu 16.04 in march… Van: Keyur Bhalerao [mailto:keyurbhalerao@gmail.com] Verzonden: dinsdag 5 januari 2016 21:53 Aan: Dominique Ramaekers CC: Kashyap Chamarthy; libvirt-users@redhat.com Onderwerp: Re: [libvirt-users] Efficient live disk backup with active blockcommit : Failed 'block-commit': Could not reopen file: Permission denied Hi , Based on the discussion and links referred as mentioned in earlier thread , I could able to perform the block commit and other operations successfully.
