similar to: NVidia Grid on libvirt.

Hi, I'm investigating the possibility to use a Nvidia Grid graphics card to use in libvirt. I found this resource on the subject from the end of 2014: http://www.linux-kvm.org/images/b/b3/01x09b-VFIOandYou-small.pdf It should be possible. However libvirt didn't support it at that time. Does anyone has experience on the subject? Greetings, Dominique.

Hi there! I have installed a new VM with Win2k8 and the serial virtio driver works fine. I don´t know why the other VM the BSOD happen! About the performance, I had the impression that only one core is used.....PID 8301 is a linux VM with 4 VCPU and 2 GB of RAM... ​ 2016-05-25 3:39 GMT-03:00 Dominique Ramaekers < dominique.ramaekers@cometal.be>: > > > *Van:* Thiago

Yes, my modification is like you. I doubt that if the mount operation on the host is reasonable… And what is p9?

Hi, I have tried usb and it doesn’t work. I don’t know if the filesystem tag could work… I find in the formatdomain docs about the filesystem: <filesystem type='mount' accessmode='passthrough'> <driver type='path' wrpolicy='immediate'/> <source dir='/export/to/guest'/> <target

Hi there! I will do soon the disk config, but first I will do some labs. I´m trying to install the virtio driver to comunicate using qemu-agent but when the driver is installed, the BSOD happens (win2k8 R2). I tried with virtio-drivers version 100, 110 and 117, both happens BSOD. Do you has a tip ? :) Thanks buddy! 2016-05-20 10:23 GMT-03:00 Dominique Ramaekers <

Hi Dominique, You’ll have to convert the qcow to raw, create a LVM-volume (don’t create a file system on the volume), and dd the raw tot he LVM volume… Convert the qcow to raw, Ok Create a LVM-Volume, OK Don´t create a file system on the volume ?? Is not clear why... DD the raw to the LVM? How ? I don´t understand this point.... Thanks a lot! 2016-05-20 10:23 GMT-03:00 Dominique

@requillart Don't get me wrong. It's no problem to use other partitions. Only, you have to add the location to the storage pool of libvirt... Sorry, no experience with gnome-boxes. @crequill Add a new storage pool with the destination /home/crequill/VM You can't fool apparmour with a link... Also with adding the storage pool, it's easier to get a clear picture of the usage of your

Yeah, Dominique, your wiki was one of the many docs I read through before/during/after starting down this primrose path... thanks for writing it. I'm an Arch user, and I couldn't find anything to indicate qemu, as its compiled for Arch, will look in /etc/default/qemu-kvm. And now that I've got the right page size, the instances are starting... The reason I want to use the page element

Hi there! Although the guest has 2GB memory, the windows guest was adjusted to support this. I guess that the LVM is the best choice! I will save all images to other disk and re-build the partition with LVM. Do you recomend to use ext4 or zfs ? - About the apparmor, I have my doubts, I will try to disable and see what will happen! - About the tablet input device, I removed! Some forums say that

Hi, Thanks for your response! But when I use the ssh, I need to know the guest password, and actually it belongs to network communication. I don’t know if the libvirt has some means just like to control the domain to implement the operation?

Indeed, I have a link between /var/lib/libvirt/images and my home directory on an another partition. # ls -al /var/lib/libvirt/images lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 3 sept. 09:29 /var/lib/libvirt/images -> /home/crequill/VM 2015-09-15 17:45 GMT+02:00 Dominique Ramaekers <dominique.ramaekers@cometal.be>: > A while ago, I had the same problem.

Thanks Dominique & Daniel. Looks like i need to upgrade my VMs kernel to make it aware of virtio. Found this information from this link: http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Virtio#Disk_.28block.29_device_driver I tried without upgrading the Kernel and as soon as i start my VM it got into Kernel Panic. I will try using virtio after upgrading my VMs kernel. Thanks for all the responses and

I seem to have run into https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=855640, because when I tried the fix/work-around at the end (comment 11), ethtool -K eth0 gro off, my download speed by speedtest went from undetectable to ~150Mb/s. However, it was not able to connect for the upload test, and so something may still be off. Non-virtual machines can do the upload test, so it's not just a

os x comes with openssh, and some other nixy goodness. the rest you can get at brew.sh. when i ssh -Y into the host, ill just virt-manager or virt-viewer, but the x server on os x comes with some baggage and silly annoyances like "helpfully" trapping the mouse with a release combo thats hard to deal with from os x. running a vnc client over os x would still come with baggage and

Hi, i'd like to create snapshots of my running vm's. I have several hosts with SLES11 SP4 64bit. I use libvirt 1.2.5-7.1 . VM's are Windows 7, SLES, Ubuntu, Opensuse. I use raw files for the vm's. I try to orientate myself by http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Live-disk-backup-with-active-blockcommit . The hosts are backuped every night by a network based backup solution (Legato). My

Hi, I've got two hosts. Most of my guests are Windows systems. I'm using LANBench to test network performance. 1) From an physical PC to a guest (it doesn't matter on which host), I get almost 1Gb/s. They are connected through a 1Gb/s swich => very good! 2) From a guest on one host to a guest on the other host => plusminus 1Gb/s => Okay! 3) Between two guests on the same
