From: Marian Rotariu <marian.c.rotariu at gmail.com> The introspection tool uses this function to check the hardware support for EPT switching, which can be used either to singlestep vCPUs on a unprotected EPT view or to use #VE in order to avoid filter out VM-exits caused by EPT violations.

I have the following running on my system: - one linux host running libvirt 1.2.20 - two Linux guestOS VMs running When I change the clock on the host, the VMs stop responding: The VNC connection stops working, the console connection to the VMs does not work, ping stops reponding, libvirt commands temporarily stop working (after issuing the command, the system just hangs). I get control

I am building a custom Linux image which includes KVM and will be installed on multiple machines. By default when installing libvirt you get a 'default network' which adds a 'vrbr0'. I found several tutorials online about removing this 'virbr0' but I would like to not have it in the first place. I am compiling libvirt from source so I would think there is some compile time

Hi all, I am trying to figure out if you can store the definition of a directory storage pool in a custom location. This is how I create the storage pool: xmlDesc = """ <pool type='dir'> <name>guest_images_storage_pool</name> <uuid>8c79f996-cb2a-d24d-9822-ac7547ab2d01</uuid> <capacity unit='bytes'>4306780815</capacity>

I am using the libvirt API to manage VMs on the system, using a python wrapper to execute commands. I need to allow a webserver to access these commands and mostly read information about the VMs. The problem is that when using the web interface you use are basically running the commands as different user. Since libvirtd is run as root by default you get permission errors. Is there any way of

I am trying to add libvirt to a linux machine running a custom built linux- there is no packet manager, everything is compiled using buildroot. On this VM server, I am running libvirt-1.2.2 and the linux kernel is 3.18.21 Libvirtd starts and runs in the background. I can add/edit VMs using Virt-install. If I try to connect to the local qemu, everything works: virsh -c qemu:///system If I ssh in

Hi all, I think I might have a small configuration issue: after restarting my machine, all the VMs previously installed are not available. virsh list --all shows an empty list. The .img files where the VMs were intalled are present in the folder I put them in. Furthermore if I import the VMs (virt-install -import) it all seems to work. It's just that I don't want to have to do this

Tanks for the reply Eric. The only reason I'm not going through the API is because there is nothing in the API (AFIK), that will allow you to modify the VNC settings, i.e. enable/disable, change port number. So I figured, the only way to do it is to modify the XML. I can't use virsh edit because I need this whole behavior scripted. So now if I want to change the VNC settings it

Hi all, I am using libvirt to manage VM on my system; after creating a VM (default no NICs are present in the configuration) you can add any number of interfaces to it (as long as they exist on the host). To do that, I edit the configuration xlm: vmXml = self.domain.XMLDesc() root = ET.fromstring(vmXml) devices = root.find('./devices') intf =

Hi all, I have the following issue, and I hope someone know a way to handle it. I need to grammatically need to create/install a guest OS using the libvirt API. Currently what I do: 1. create a xml with the vm configuration (this will include a path to the iso image) 2. connection.defineXML(<my_config>) 3. vm = connection.lookupByName(<domain_name>) 4. vm.create() This will

Hi all, I have to admit Martin might have been right: I upgraded to qemu 2.6.0 and still I see the same problem with virtio disks on my custom built Linux box. I create domain using the previously mentioned domain xml definition and try to install ubuntu from an iso. Earty on during the installation I get an error: The attempt to mount a file system with type ext4 in Virtual disk1, partition#1

I am trying to change a domain configuration from a python script. More specific, I want to edit the VNC settings. You can't do this using the libvirt API so you have to edit the domain configuration: Fo exmple, to disable VNC for a domain 'test1': vmXml = vm.XMLDesc(0) root = ET.fromstring(vmXml) devices = root.find('./devices') graphics = devices.find('graphics')

I am trying to migrate a VMware guest to KVM. I have the .vmdk file which I convert to qcow2 format using qemu-img convert. The next step is to import the new img file. If I use virt-install --import <guest config options> it all works fine. But when I try the same think using the libvirt API I get the "no boot disk found" message when starting the vm. When importing the VM

Hi all, I am running KVM on a 3.18 kernel. The system runs and Atom processor with 2Gb RAM. Using KVM you obviously can over allocate your resources: say you have 4 guests each configured with 1GB ram. Running all four at the same time, depending on the workload, can crash the system - I get a kernel trace when this happens. But let's consider a simpler case: one guest with 1.5 Gb RAM,
