similar to: Possible to change 'machine type' attribute while vm is running?

I'm looking for a way to online resize a Windows disk -- i.e., be able to resize the disk without shutting down, rebooting, or detaching the disk. Is this at all possible? Or am I just barking up the wrong tree? I'm not finding a way to do this and even Amazon has a weird workaround, in which the user must write data to the newly resized-drive in order to recognize the new size

I'm trying to determine if it's possible to edit/attach/apply nwfilter rules at runtime? I.e., after a VM is already running, can I apply a nwfilter to the VM and have it work without rebooting the machine? Thus far, I've not come across a way to do so, but I thought I'd ask here before I chase my tail around Google. Thanks! -- Andre Goree -=-=-=-=-=- Email - andre at

Hi everyone, I incidentally configured two IDE controller for my machine-1.2 VM(it might be virsh attach-disk to blame), and I got the error message "Only a single IDE controller is unsupported...". I can't understand this error message, I think it means I HAVE to configure two or more IDE controllers until I looked it up in the source. At libvirt-1.2.22/src/qemu/qemu_command.c:

I've been trying to follow the information found here [1] in order to provide an alias for RBD disks I'm defining, however it does not appear to be working and I wanted to see if I was doing something wrong. I define the alias like so (using 'virsh edit'): <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2'

Hello all. I was hoping someone out there might have some advice or suggestions regarding an upgrade from an archaic Asterisk version. I've been given the daunting task of upgrading a very old Asterisk-1.0.x install to a recent LTS version. I'll also need the install to have high-availability and failover support. From my research, it would appear that AsteriskNOW-3.0 might be my

I'm trying to apply a nwfilter rule for two networks on the same guest interface, like so: ~ # virsh nwfilter-dumpxml 1081532-private-both <filter name='1081532-private-both' chain='root'> <uuid>16004b94-2b62-4568-9467-169908eb4040</uuid> <rule action='accept' direction='in' priority='500'> <ip

I'm wondering whether or not anyone has tried to use guestmount on an image with a ZFS partition (MBR partition table). I can't seem to find much on the internet regarding it, but I do see hints that may lead me to a solution. I'm under the impression that libguestfs can use what ever is available to the kernel on the host -- in my case I have zfs-use installed and running. I

Is r/w to a UFS partition using 'guestmount' still an impossibility? From everything I've found, it seems to be something that is not possible at the moment. I was just wondering if that has changed or if there are plans to change that? Here is the issue I'm experiencing: ~# guestmount --rw -a ${disk_path}/${disk_name} -m /dev/sda4 /tmp/freebsd-master libguestfs: error:

I don't thinkg qemu-guest-agent can do that for you.

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

I have some questions regarding the way that networking is handled via qemu/kvm+libvirt -- my apologies in advance if this is not the proper mailing list for such a question. I am trying to determine how exactly I can manipulate traffic from a _guest's_ NIC using iptables on the _host_. On the host, there is a bridged virtual NIC that corresponds to the guest's NIC. That interface

Hello. I'm not able to disable the sata controller on a machine='pc-q35-2.1' type VM. Whenever i delete: <controller type='sata' index='0'> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x1f' function='0x2'/> </controller> it gets added again when i close the editor. The reason i would

I would really appreciate some pointers on what I am doing wrong here. I have a need to run multiple virtual guests which have each their own GPU and some USB controllers passed-through. I am able to run one of the guests like this (assuming vfio stuff has happened elsewhere), but I would prefer to use virsh: kvm -M q35 -m 8192 -cpu host,kvm=off \ -smp 4,sockets=1,cores=4,threads=1 \ -bios

, as it seems to be running Asterisk-11. =A0I&#39;ve previously installed A= sterisk-11+FreePBX in a VM, and this appears to be very similar. =A0Is ther= e any upside to using AsteriskNOW vs. Asterisk+FreePBX?

Hi, I think that issue is due to the fact that my Guest is a transient domain. When shutting down it or migrating to another host , then virsh list --all doesn't show this Guest anymore. How may I make this Guest a persistent one ? ( i.e. this Guest has been created via RHEV-M GUI) Thx for hlep. Regards, J.P. -----Message d'origine----- De : libvirt-users-bounces@redhat.com
