similar to: Fwd: Hotadd memory and hotplug cpu

Hello, First of all, happy new year! I am interested in the hot plugging facilities of libvirt, in particular in what qemu calls 'hot add' of network interface cards. (And also the reverse: hot unplugging/removing of NICs.) I think I am overlooking something, but so far the best I have been able to find is: http://libvirt.org/sources/virshcmdref/html/ and it is not entirely clear

Eric, thank you for your response. Virsh memtune, setmaxmem and setmem won't survive a reboot. I'm hoping to find  a solution that can survive reboot.   On Thursday, January 30, 2014 11:36 AM, Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> wrote: On 01/30/2014 10:11 AM, mallu mallu wrote: > I'm trying to permanently change memory allocation for a libvirt-lxc domain.

Hi, i'm playing a bit around with vcpus. My guest is Windows 10 1903. This is the excerpt from the config: ... <vcpu placement='static' current='2'>4</vcpu> <vcpus> <vcpu id='0' enabled='yes' hotpluggable='no'/> <vcpu id='1' enabled='yes' hotpluggable='yes'/> <vcpu id='2'

My dom0 is uing Centos 5.2 x64. I have just upgraded Xen from 3.3.0 to 3.3.1. After upgraded, I find that I cannot hotplug additional vcpu anymore. I have a domU "linux1" which is a paravirtualized vm with centos 5.2. I try to "xm vcpu-set linux1 4", it does not have any error message, but those vcpu cannot be displayed. I also tried to add vcpu using "virsh setvcpus

Hi, I am sending this e-mail once again because it probably has been lost in abyss of Xen-devel/LKLM list. Here is the second version of memory hotplug support for Xen guests patch. This one cleanly applies to git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git repository, xen/memory-hotplug head. Changes: - /sys/devices/system/memory/probe interface has been removed;

Hello, I'm trying to plug and unplug cpus with a host CentOS 7 on a guest machine with CentOS too. I have created the guest with virt-install command, modified my domxml to have maximum 4 vcpus and updated the current cpu to 2. After that I open the virsh console, and used command setvcpus to add/remove cpus. I was able to increase the vcpu count until 4 but can't increase it after 4 as

Hi All, I am new to libvirt, i wander how we can achieve below objective, i read through a lot from libvirt.org but couldn't found any thing solid something equivalent to this:- virsh dumpxml dom > /tmp/dom.xml $EDITOR /tmp/dom.xml && virsh define /tmp/dom.xml What i try to achieve is to have one management server that install with libvirt in place then we can use libvirt

Hello. I'm struggeling a little bit with the setvcpus command. I'm trying now to get this running for a linux VM. Here is what i have: <vcpu placement='auto' current='2'>4</vcpu> Now the VM is starting with 2 CPUs. When i try to increase the number of CPUs i get: setvcpus dev --guest 4 error: invalid argument: requested vcpu count is greater than the count

I'm trying to permanently change memory allocation for a libvirt-lxc domain. So far I tried changing memory in memory.limit_in_bytes under /cgroup/memory/libvirt/lxc/<container>/.  This didn't help. It appears that libvirt is not reading changes in cgroup. My requirements are 1) Be able to dynamically change memory of a LXC domain without reboot 2) The memory change must survive

Hi, We know that there is a command "setvcpus" in virsh used to "change number of virtual CPUs", now we just have the need to change vcpu count dynamically for a running VM, so I tried this command (the vcpu count is 2 in the VM xml file), below is the result: virsh # setvcpus 3 --count 4 error: invalid argument: requested vcpus is greater than max allowable vcpus for the

Hello. Just a quick question. Is "setvcpus $windowsVM --guest 4" supposed to work? I have qemu-guest-agent (1.6.something) running inside a windows7 vm but all i get is: virsh # setvcpus windows7 --guest 4 error: invalid argument: requested vcpu count is greater than the count of enabled vcpus in the domain: 4 > 1 The xml file looks like this: <vcpu placement='static'
