Hello, I'm running Debian Sid with libvirt/qemu/kvm packages from experimental: $ qemu --version QEMU emulator version 0.13.0 (Debian 0.13.0+dfsg-2), Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard $ kvm --version QEMU emulator version 0.13.0 (qemu-kvm-0.13.0 Debian 0.13.0+dfsg-2), Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard $ libvirtd --version libvirtd (libvirt) 0.8.6 /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf

I'm running libvirt 0.10.2 and qemu-kvm-1.2.0, both compiled from source, on CentOS 6. I've got a working blkio cgroup hierarchy which I'm attaching guests to using the following XML guest configs: VM1 (foreground): <cputune> <shares>2048</shares> </cputune> <blkiotune> <weight>1000</weight> </blkiotune>

Hi, I'm running OpenStack to manage LXC instance through libvirt. The same setting runs perfectly well on Ubuntu 12.04, while on CentOS 6u3, libvirt dumped following message when starting lxc instance. virsh -c lxc:/// start instance-00000032 error: internal error The 'cpuacct', 'devices' & 'memory' cgroups controllers must be mounted Really appreciated if

Hello libvirt users, I'm using the cgroup with QEMU guests. At /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf, I have the following parameter: cgroup_controllers = [ "cpu" ] This controller is successfully mounted and libvirt is able to create subgroups for each VM, it's really great the cgroups support in libvirt. The problem is that I can only set the parameters of a given cgroup under the cpu

Dear list, I am building a Arch server on my Arch box. My tools are QEMU/KVM and libvirt to manage the guest, systemd as system manager. I am looking at implementing the Linux Control Groups facilities for resource management. Even after long hours of reading, I am not quite sure about how to deal with the cgroups facilities. First, do I really need to care about all that, or libvirt and

Hi there, Do you know if there is a way to modify how libvirt interacts with the cgroup? Because, I successfully add the /dev/net/tun support in my LXC container by doing: echo c 10:200 rwm >> /cgroup/libvirt/lxc/instance-00000005/devices.allow But when I restart the instance/LXC container, this option has gone. How can I make this persistant? Is there a configuration file? Thanks

Hi I was asking about the fedora 14 kernel if it is good enough for cgroup usage because I am trying to set a cgroup under cpu subsytem ( /dev/cgroup/cpu/group1/ ) that have /cpu.rt_runtime_us of 100000 while cpu.rt_period_us has a value of 1000000 i.e a ratio of 1/10 . still when I run a task (endless loop) in that group (cgexec -g cpu,cpuset:group1 ./test) it gets all the cpu core time

How can I disable libvirtd from attempting to suspend VMs on poweroff / reboot? It is slowly filling up our /var/ filesystem with save points at /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/save/<vm name>.save, even though I'm not initiating any suspend or restore functionality. I checked /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf and /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf but could not find anything. This is CentOS 5 with libvirt

I have a RHEL6 that hosts many kvm virtual machines. It has been working fine for a couple years. I apply errata updates about once a week. In the last couple weeks, I've ran into a bug where the virtual machines start failing to start with a cgroup error message. If I reboot the host (very disruptive) then things start working normaly for a few days. Can I configure qemu/libvirt not to use

Hi, I'm trying to use cgroups to limit the apache webserver but this doesn't seem to work as far as I can tell. I modified cgconfig.conf like this: group webserver { cpu { cpu.shares="250"; } } and addes this to cgrules.conf: *:httpd * webserver Looking into the "webserver" cgroup shows that the pid's of

Hello, I'm trying to use libvirt as a non-root user to obtain statistics on the CPU usage by VMs using the Python API. I'm performing basically the following steps: import libvirt conn = libvirt.openReadOnly(None) dom = conn.lookupByUUIDString('268e38ea-1bc7-41e4-c19e-8eff682e58e4') dom.getCPUStats(True, 0) However, they result in the following error: libvir: QEMU Driver

Hello All, From the last couple of days i have been spamming this mailing list with request for configuring Cgroup with libvirtd on Centos systems. I still can not find a permanent solution to limit host RAM to particular value,tried creating a separate hierarchy "mykvm" and changed in sysconfig/libvirtd after that vm's memory cgroup reflects this.But it is

Hello All, i am trying to set "memory.limit_in_bytes" for all process created by libvirt.But i am not able to achieve this on RHEL systems in Ubuntu servers creating memory cgroup for "libvirt-qemu" user solves the issue.But in case of RHEL system i tried to create a group by editing "cgconfig.conf" and then changing cgrules.conf and restarted cgconfig and

I'm getting the following error when building libvirt 10.2 from source in CentOS 5: CC libvirt_util_la-processinfo.lo util/processinfo.c: In function 'virProcessInfoGetAffinity': util/processinfo.c:164: error: invalid operands to binary | The line in question is: 162 for (i = 0 ; i < maxcpu ; i++) 163 if (CPU_ISSET(i, &mask)) 164

I'm trying to track balloon growth after issuing a setmem command to a KVM guest with libvirt 0.10.2 and qemu-kvm 0.12.1.2 on CentOS 6.3. libvirt 0.10.2 was built from tar today and appears to be working fine. The guest is running CentOS 6.3 as well. Using the provided test programs under examples/domain-events/ in C and Python, I'm not seeing VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_BALLOON_CHANGE ever

Hi, We have upgraded the libvirt version from libvirt-1.0.5 to libvirt-1.0.6-1 on our linux machine. After this upgrade "virsh cpu-stats <domain>" command is not working on our HardWare. *virsh # cpu-stats test error: Failed to retrieve CPU statistics for domain 'test' error: internal error error accessing cgroup cpuacct for vcpu* ** *# cat /proc/cgroups #subsys_name

Hi, I have OS 'image' that boots via PXE and mounts over NFS. (7.5.1804). I am wanting to explore allowing cgroup usage on this configuration. The root image is exported read-only over NFS and am using statetab & rwtab to allow some persistent parts of the filesystem as well as read/write where needed. I have tried setting /sys in the statetab and this causes the machine to fail,
