Hi, I'm running into some problems with libvirt and hoping someone can point me at some instructions or maybe even help me out. First, are there any requirements on qemu version in order to use the "numatune" and/or "cpu/numa/cell" elements? Or do they use cgroups and not the native qemu numa support? Second, are there any instructions on how to set up cgroups? I

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

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

Are you trying to directly modify cgroup files

Hi, Seems this question is not related with libvirt directly, but I still want to ping this list to see if someone can be help. The OS in my desktop box is Ubuntu 12.10, the kernel is 3.5.1. I installed the cgroup utility package with:#apt-get install cgroup-bin, but after I installed these packages successfully, I can't find cpu_quota/cpu_period controller in the /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu folder.

Hi , I was previously using xen and currently moved to KVM. I am using libvirt to manage these VMs. In den's credit scheduler , I had the ability to set a cap on the cpu usage for a VM. But I was not able to find a similar substitute in KVM. I find that we can use cgroups to provide shares for VM but that will be more like weight based and it doesn't set a hard cap for that VM. I tried

Hi techs, Could you please explain or refer me to documentation where I could find a description of global_quota schedinfo option. Someone told me that it could mean a cpu limitation in percents like: global_quota : 25000 (does it mean cpu limit % set to 25 ?) Is it true? What other parameters mean in below output? I didn't find any related documentation at libvirt.org. Could you help me

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

Hi, I'm using libvirt/kvm with openstack. When vm has CPU stall, the instance can't be destroyed. I have asked the question on openstack user mailing list and received no answers in weeks. Here is one example: # virsh destroy instance-00000085 error: Failed to destroy domain instance-00000085 error: Failed to terminate process 61222 with SIGKILL: Device or resource busy

Hi, I am setting up a system that enforces cgroup restrictions when a user logs in via SSH, and for all the services that are run by a particular user. I am also running dovecot to give users IMAP/POP access to their mailboxes. However, to be part of a cgroup, PIDs must be explicitly added to the cgroup tasks file. So for now, all my processes are run with resource restrictions, except for

Hi, I've got a small problem using libvirt-1.0.5.1 (with the latest patch in the v1.0.5-maint branch on git added). I'm using slackware64-14.0 but the situation is exactly the same described on a debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=707201 When trying to start a domain I got error: Failed to start domain debian-wheezy-xfce error: Unable to initialize /machine

This is really strongly

Hi, all These days, I am interested in green IT area for low power OS So, I have a question about it. Is there any good idea or comments about power management related with cgroup based resource management? I have no idea about that, but it seems to be possible to find a good concept. And I hope so Is it some strange question? ^^ Regards, Dong-Jae Kang

Hi all, I've disabled cgroups v1 on my system with the kernel boot option "systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=1". Since doing so, USB hotplugging fails to work, seemingly due to a permissions problem with BPF. Please note that the technique I'm going to describe worked just fine for hotplugging USB devices to running domains until this change. Attaching / detaching USB devices

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
