Hello, I'm struggling to make a cloned CentOS 7 VM (under KVM) to work. The VM was cloned using mondorestore. Restore appears successful but the VM won't boot; see: http://iweb.noa.gr/files/centos7/supergrub2-scratchvm-20170503-04.png I booted with CentOS 7 disk in troubleshooting mode (where the virtual disk was automatically mounted without issues) and I tried to repair: http://iweb.noa.gr/fil...

And remove/etc/lvm/cache/.cache if it exists Thank you Marcelo for replying, The directory /etc/lvm/cache/ is empty. And, yes, the UUID matches: # blkid /dev/vda1: UUID="297e2939-d6f5-431a-9813-9848368ee306" TYPE="xfs"

I use rdiff-backup, but I hesitate to recommend a tool that has been unsupported for over 6 years and does have quite a few bugs. --

I guess you have rebuilt initramfs a few times now, so I believe it is irrelevant...

I have always had success in all my (numerous) restores/clones with CentOS 5 and 6. I have not managed to have a fully successful (i.e. bootable) restore/clone of a CentOS 7 system yet (due to the above issue). Thanks, Nick

Hello All, I guess it is very common for administrative purpose, to dump and restore a CentOS 7 system. I usually use dump/restore commands. However, I?m having trouble to handle installing bootloader and creating initramfs for C7 system. Does anyone know a good document source that details those procedure? Thank you, Xinhuan Zheng
