Hi, I''m running snv84 on a SunFire x2200M2, 2 dualcore opterons, 8GB ram, 2 mirror sata disks (zfs). I tried to install both Ubuntu 7.1 Desktop and Fedora 8 into a HVM domU but failed everytime. The VNC-Server for the domU dies, but the domain still consumes CPU time, disks go idle after a while (zpool iostat or iostat show zero I/O). The domUs booted up fine, the installer started,

I'm writing an app and using the Python bindings for libvirt. Everything is fine but, in some cases I need to call lookupByName(). There are a lot of times when the name will not exist, I trap the exception, however I still get this message printed to stderr: libvir: QEMU error : Domain not found: no domain with matching name 'foo' Is there any way to turn this off? This is a

Hi, I am trying to check if a domain exists by using the libvirt python API *"lookupbyname()*". If the domain does not exist, it prints an error message on the console saying "*Domain not found*". I need the errors or logs only in syslog. I have tried redirecting stderr and stdout. But, it doesn't have any effect. I have also tried playing around with the libvirt logging

Hey, I'm trying to figure out a way to get a list of the running domains on a dom0. I can get the ID's but I'd prefer the names. We have another script written in perl, but I'm trying to get some other functionality in python as well as work on converting it all to python. It looks like perl has a list_domains() that will, according to the libvirt doc, "Return a list of all

Hello, I was getting the following error in syslog: libvirtd: 21:19:12.116: 10955: error : qemudDispatchServer:1355 : Too many active clients (20), dropping connection from 127.0.0.1;0 I investigated a bit and tried the following in a python console: import libvirt ~~~~ conn=libvirt.openReadOnly("qemu+ssh://HOST_IP/system<http://10.16.71.1/system> ") //now check the no. of

Hi, Currently I am using the latest libvirt API listAllDomains() to probe for domains. I may need to fall back to older API for old libvirt server such as: listDefinedDomains() and lookupByName() instead of listAllDomains(). Is there any disadvantage to using listAllDomains instead of listAllDomains or its the same results via different API? Thank you, Shahar.

Hi Team, I have written below code to get the VM state at run time. I found, though the VM is in shut-off state, when I use the function virDomainGetInfo(); I get state as running. Could you please let me know what wrong I am doing. To know the actual VM state I used 'virsh list' and it clearly shows the VM is in shut-off state. Please find the log and code snippet below. Log from virsh:

Can I depend on virDomainBlockInfo for non block devices? 2. Does the
