I'm trying to create a 6.5 VM on a 6.5 system using virt-install... # virt-install --network bridge:br0 --name kfat --ram=2048 --vcpus=2 --disk path=/var/lib/libvirt/images/kfat.img,size= 16 --cdrom=/home/downloads/CentOS-6.5-x86_64-minimal.iso I get through the first part of the installation, asks for disk layout (I leave default, tell it to take the whole vdisk), networking (I setup a

Hi, I'm trying to create a snapshot on a specific disk by using diskspec option. However, libvirt/virsh seems to ignore it and takes a snapshot of all disks. Am I using this option incorrectly? In below examples, I'm trying to snapshot only vdb. However even vda is getting snapshotted regardless of diskspec. Is this a known issue? I'm on CentOS 7.1, libvirtd (libvirt) 1.2.8, virsh

Hello, I had a scientific linux 3.0.4 system (rhel compatible), with 3 ide disks, one for / and two others in linear raid (250 gb and 300 gb each). This system was obsoleted so i move the raid disks to a new scientific linux 3.0.7 installation. However, the raid array was not detected ( I put the disks on the same channels and same master/lsave setup as in the previous setup). In fact

Hello, The xm config option boot="c" is intended to boot from the "first" harddrive; however, the enumeration of harddrives is independent of device enumeration (hda|hdb|hdc|hdd), leading to unreliable boot device selection. Example A: I am building a Windows HVM appliance which performs file-system level operations over mounted NTFS volumes - for example a file-system

Hi, Just installed centos 7 and it looks awesome.From where i can get vlc media player for centos 7 ? Regards Ben

I have problems getting the TIMEOUT value work the same way LILO/GRUB does it.. ie it should wait until the timeout and then use the default value. However, it goes straight for the default value without waiting a single second (and a TIMEOUT value of 500 should mean 50 seconds, as it counts in 1/10th of a second, right?) SYSLINUX (isolinux) 2.00 ----8<------8<---- SERIAL 0 38400 TIMEOUT

I have an automatic process setup. It's still pretty new and obviously in need of better error handling because now I find myself in a bad state. I run snapshot-create-as across all my vms, then do zfs replication to the target backup system, then blockcommit everything. virsh snapshot-create-as --domain $vm snap --diskspec $DISK,file=$VMPREFIX/"$vm"-snap.qcow2 --disk-only --atomic

Hi, I''m the Mageia XEN packager and during QA, we stumbled into a problem. in fact, we wanted to test Mageia 3 installation on a HVM. so, we had a sparse image and a iso file: [ ''file:/opt/testhvm.img,sda,w'', ''file:/opt/mageialive.iso,hdb:cdrom,r'' ] the live booted, and was able to install to disk, but it never seemed to boot after the install...

In my experiments with setting up a NAS as a VM, I can only successfully import three drives; the root drive, the cd and one more.

Is there a simple way to directly install a vm on an lvm (or proably seperate LVM's for root and swap)? For example something like: lvcreate -L 10G -n testvm_root vg_myvg lvcreate -L 1G -n testvm_swap Then somehow setup the VM to be able to directly install and boot the vm from these LV's. How do I do this? Could you then pause the virtual machine and safely take an LVM snapshot,

Hello, I''m currently trying to understand some problems I had in the past with mixing look-back with blktap(2) for HV and PV domains. I''m stuck reading the source code, so I''d like to get some help from the list. Interrupt me if I got something fundamentally wrong in my understanding so far: 1. With pure-HV the domU gets an emulated IDE (or whatever) disk. The

I'm unable to detach a disk from a Windows guest using the 'virsh detach-disk' command. Even though 'domblklist' shows the disk attached, and on the FIRST iteration, it says the command "completed successfully," 'domblklist will still show the disk attached and subsequent 'detach-disk' commands fail with 'no disk found whose source path or target
