similar to: libvirtError: block copy still active: disk not ready for pivot yet

I understand that libvirt provides async events that are triggered once the block job reaches ready state and successfully pivots as it is reported by qemu. Whats the event that is triggered and what's the handler that we have to implement? To be more specific, I am looking for the onEVENT callback method that is invoked when the event is fired.

Hi everyone, I have a question that you may be able to help me with. I had a live block migration of a qemu-kvm guest fail (initiated via nova), in which the guest remained running on the source, but if I try to re-initiate the live migration it returns libvirtError: Timed out during operation: cannot acquire state change lock (held by monitor=remoteDispatchDomainMigratePerform3Params). Looking at

Hello, I did a virsh snapshot-create-as --domain meta sn1 --diskspec vda,file=/var/lib/libvirt/images/meta-sn1.qcow2 --disk-only --atomic --no-metadata Then I successfully blockcommitted 2 disks: virsh blockcommit meta vda --active --verbose --pivot virsh blockcommit meta vdb --active --verbose --pivot But when doing virsh blockcommit meta vdc --active --verbose --pivot I got: Block commit:

Hi, after a recent live backup done with a snapshot, blockcommit failed and a subsequent (manual) blockjob abort got stuck. Now we are unable to do basic operations on the virtual machine like if it was frozen and when issuing another command we see the following: $ virsh shutdown $domain error: Failed to shutdown domain $domain error: Timed out during operation: cannot acquire state change lock

Any idea what happened to cause it to partially fail and get into this state? virsh blockcommit --pivot is actually 3 operations in sequence: 1) initiate the commit job 2) wait till it finishes 3) initiate the pivot job (this is

I have an automatic process setup. It's still pretty new and obviously in need of better error handling because now I find myself in a bad state. I run snapshot-create-as across all my vms, then do zfs replication to the target backup system, then blockcommit everything. virsh snapshot-create-as --domain $vm snap --diskspec $DISK,file=$VMPREFIX/"$vm"-snap.qcow2 --disk-only --atomic

Hi, a small update on this. We have migrated the virtualized host to use the virtio drivers and now the drive performance is improved so that we can see a constant transfer rate. Before it used to be the same rate but regularly dropped to a few bytes/sec for a few seconds and then was fast again. However we still observe that the following fails regularily: $ virsh snapshot-create-as --domain

Just a little catch-up. This time I was able to resolve the issue by doing: virsh blockjob domain hda --abort virsh blockcommit domain hda --active --pivot Last time I had to shut down the virtual machine and do this while being offline. Thanks Wang for your valuable input. As far as the memory goes, there's plenty of head room: $ free -h total used free

Hi, I use this procedure to backup my VM's: http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Live-disk-backup-with-active-blockcommit It works on my current host: Compiled against library: libvirt 1.2.16 Using library: libvirt 1.2.16 Gebruikte API: QEMU 1.2.16 Draaiende hypervisor: QEMU 2.1.0 Now I'm doing a test on a testing host: Compiled against library: libvirt 1.2.21 Using library: libvirt 1.2.21

Hello, one of my VM's blockcommit job always fails. How can I find the reason?

Morning, I have a KVM guest running Win 2012 with MS SQL 2012. In order to provide a quick method of restoring the service should the live server die, we've decided to clone it to a preserved state. Ideally, this clone should also be kept up to date and cloning should be done on a regular basis. Is there any reason not to do unattended cloning? As in, when I leave on a Friday afternoon,

I am searching for directions for using live block migration to copy running vm's to a different storage pool. Example: VM1 running on Host1, the image(s) for VM1 are stored in /var/lib/libvirt/images. I'd like to copy the disk image(s) that VM1 is using to /nfs/images. Without stopping/pausing/powering down the VM. Do you have any examples or documentation of how to accomplish this

"virsh blockjob rasa vda --abort" aborts the blockcommit and then I can try to blockcommit again: # virsh blockjob

Hi Friends, i'm new to R....I have data frame having columns X Y Z....I want to do pivot on this data frame....can any one help me on this...

Hi, Is it possible to "pivot" to a new image without doing blockcopy or blockpull? I know how to use snapshots and blockpull to create a new image and pivot to using it live, but what I would like to do is to have a VM switch from using imageA.qcow2 to image2.qcow2 while running. I don't see why this wouldn't be possible since some of the existing libvirt tools can do this when
