I believe the respective config file for this vm is /etc/libvirt/qemu/MausDB.xml.

Hi, i have a two-node cluster with several domains as resources. During testing i tried several times to migrate some domains concurrently. Usually it suceeded, but rarely it failed. I found one clue in the log: Dec 03 16:03:02 ha-idg-1 libvirtd[3252]: 2018-12-03 15:03:02.758+0000: 3252: error : virKeepAliveTimerInternal:143 : internal error: connection closed due to keepalive timeout The

Hi, i'd like to rsync some image files from virtual hosts each night. The image files are between 50GB and 400GB big. I thought rsync would be the appropriate solution because it just transfers the differences, not the whole file. But nevertheless rsync takes hours. The images aren't much modified over the day, i would expect just some tens of megabyte needed to be transfered. I have the

Hi, i'd like to establish a HA-Cluster with two nodes. My services will run inside vm's, the vm's are stored on a FC SAN, so every host has access to the vm's. But how can i keep the config files (xml-files under /etc/libvirt/qemu) synchronised ? Is there a possibility to store the config files somewhere else ? E.g. a partitition with ocfs2 on the SAN ? If not, what would you do

Hi, i'm cuurently a bit confused if a guest does have a valid snapshot or not. This is the xml: ... <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2'/> <source file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/crispor_1604/crispor_1604.sn'/> <backingStore type='file' index='1'> <format

Hi, i have a two node cluster with virtual guests as resources. I'd like to snapshot the guests once in the night and thought i had a procedure. But i realize that things in a cluster are a bit more complicated than expected :-)) I will shutdown the guests to have a clean snapshot. I can shutdown the guests via pacemaker. But then arises the first problem: When i issue a "virsh

Hi, i have a SLES 11 SP2 64bit host with three guests: - Windows XP 32 - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64bit - SLES 11 SP2 64bit The SLES guest shuts down with the host shutdown. The others not. When i shutdown these two guests with the virt-manager, they shutdown fine. ACPI is activated in virt-manager for both of them. Acpid is running in the Ubuntu Client. When the host shuts down, the two guests get a

I don't see any --stats output. It will tell you exactly how much data was involved. A local copy means that rsync isn't networking. Rsync speeds things up by running on 2 separate computers and communicating using the rsync protocol. If you are running rsync on a single computer with the source being a mounted SAN volume and the target being a mounted cifs share then as far as rsync

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'

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 asked already a time ago about snapshots. I have some guests, each resides in a raw file, placed on an ext3 fs which is on top of a logical volume, for each guest a dedicated lv. The raw is not a "must have", if there are obvious reasons i can convert them to a qcow2. What i want is a consistent backup of each guest taken overnight. If possible i won't have downtime. I can use

Hi, i have a strange situation: A domain is still running where domblklist points to a snapshot file and also dumpxml says the current drive is that snapshot file. But the file has been deleted hours ago. And the domain is still running. I can login via ssh, the database and the webserver are still running, domain is performant. How can that be ? Also lsof shows that the file is deleted:

Hi, i wanted to benchmark a windows guest, compare standard driver and virtio driver. I installed the domain first with an IDE disk. I followed https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Paravirtualized_Block_Drivers_for_Windows to install the virtIO driver. In the device manager my VirtIO disk is recognized as a VirtIO SCSI disk from RedHat which seems ok for me. But the driver is, following the device

Hi, Is it possible that "virsh destroy" does not stop a domain ? I'm asking because i have some domains running in a two-node HA-Cluster (pacemaker). And sometimes one node get fenced (killed) because it couldn't stop a domain. That's very ugly. This is also the reason why i asked before what "virsh destroy" really does ? IIRC a kill -9 can't terminate a

Hi, i try to run virt-manager on a SLES 11 SP1 box. I'm using kernel 2.6.32.12 and virt-manager 0.9.4-106.1.x86_64 . The system is a 64bit box. Here is the output: ========================= pc56846:/media/idg2/SysAdmin_AG_Wurst/software_und_treiber/virt_manager/sles_11_sp1 # virt-manager & [1] 9659 pc56846:/media/idg2/SysAdmin_AG_Wurst/software_und_treiber/virt_manager/sles_11_sp1 #

Hi, i have a two node HA-Cluster with several domains as resources. Currently it's running in test mode. Some domains (all on the same host) stopped running, virsh list shows them as "paused". All stopped at the same time (11th of may, 7:00 am), my monitoring system began to yell. I don't have any clue why this happened. virsh domblkerror says for all the domains (5) "no
