Hello Pino, I tried installing the package and running the command, however nothing has changed :-/ This package should be installed as an addition to the dhcpcd5 or is a replacement?

Hello Pino, I am still getting the same error however from libguestfs log (when creating VM) seems that DHCP has been found - no 'DHCP can't be found' or whatever error it was. So there is some progress but the issue persists :-/ This is what I have done apt-get purge dhcpcd5* apt-get install isc-dhcp-client echo isc-dhcp-client >

Hi, I use guestfs.part_disk to partition one disk with 'mbr' and formated it to ntfs, then attach this disk to one windows xp virtual machine. But this windows xp can't recognise that partition, it says 'uknown partition' Why it is so, and how to solve it? May someone help me with this problem? Thanks. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was

Hello guys, we use libguests for dynamic creation of our VM and we do various modifications of those VMs in the process. One with I am struggling with is to signing keys of our custom repository - " vm.sh("wget -O - " + key_address + " | apt-key add -")" where "vm" is a GuestFS object. So I have set "vm.set_network(True)" and I have installed

I saw some docs referred one option "--offline" for "virsh migrate" on the internet, and there was one section called "Offline Migration" in libvirt.org, but i did find this option on my local machine. So, is it libvirt really support offline migration ? Is that because my libvirt is a little older? Is that option "--offline" right? -- Regards, apporc

Is there a way to access swap memory or page file of a virtual machine from host. I am using Xen and want to access the page file contents of my windows XP SP2 virtual machine from dom0. Please do tell me if there is already a tool that could provide this functionality. Any help is appreciated.

Good afternoon guys, I created the VM from XML dump, # virsh create vm4.xml and # virsh list I can see the VM running, and I know the ip address for the VM, but how can I know the username and password to login the running VM, which is created from XML dump? is there any place to edit and add the username and password in guest domain XML ? thanks a lot!! Best, Yuanzhen

Right on the top of http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.2/Virtualization/chap-Virtualization-Managing_guests_with_virsh.html, it seems to imply you can load/send scripts to the vm guest using virsh. Is that possible? How and what are the limitations? Can you query the vm guest?

Thank you Eric. Yes, it looks like AppArmor caused the problem. I will google on how to disable it.

Thanks very much Eric! This is exactly what I guessed, I just wondering where I could find this piece of code and control the the pause time of guest, while the snapshot being taken? thanks !

Hello folks, If I give command to take external disk-only live snapshot, such as # virsh snapshot-create-as vm1 snapshot_vm1 --disk-only will the guest OS be paused or suspend while the snapshot being taken? Thanks very much! Best, Yuanzhen

> Hi, libvirt experts, I used libvirt to create a VM and used backing store to a local file. It works fine until I installed my box to Unbuntu Trusty (14.04). I got the following errors when I tried to start the VM: Could not open backing file: Could not open <path to my backing file>: Permission denied However, if I moved my image file (not base image) to default location

While taking or reverting a snapshot, using virsh --connect qemu:///system dominfo, the state of a VM is paused. Is there a way to distinguish this state (snapshotting) with virsh or any other tools? Joaquín

Hi all, Where could I find the memory dump and disk snapshots for vm after command "virsh snapshot-create <some_running_vm>"? Thanks in advance. I found the xml files in /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/snapshot/, but hava no idea about the raw snapshot file. Thanks, Lei -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Curiously enough, another user asked about this on our IRC channel (#libguestfs on freenode) a couple of hours ago, and what came out is that there is a

KVM Ubuntu 12.04 libvirt 1.0 Related to my post of a day ago, but I can't reply to it... I want to control the order ( and therefore the connection) of eth devices in the vm. If I know what the MAC addresses are on my HV, as seen in virsh domiflist or in dumpxml, and I then re-write the /etc/udev/rules/70 file in the VM, I can get the eth devices ordered in a predictable way. Is there a

Hello, Is there any way to query libvirt, ideally through virsh CLI utility or similar, to get a timestamp of when a VM was created. Or to put it another way, a timestamp of when a domain's UUID was allocated. Many thanks, -- Tony Atkinson
