Hello everyone, To increase my odds of finding an answer I also wanted to ask here. This is my post from serverfault[1] in verbatim: While trying to get a cloned disk running from my OS snapshot I run into the problem that Libvirt cannot see existing images cloned from a snapshot. Created via: # rbd -p vmdisks clone vmdisks/coreos_2023@base vmdisks/coreos00.disk The base image has the one

Hello everybody, virt-install --version 1.4.0 How do I create a ceph network disk with virt-install without having to edit it? <disk type='network' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <auth username='libvirt'> <secret type='ceph' uuid='ec9be0c4-a60f-490e-af83-f0f27aaf48c9'/>

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello everybody, I created a rbd pool and activated it, but I can't seem to create volumes in it with virsh or virt-install? # virsh pool-dumpxml myrbdpool <pool type='rbd'> <name>myrbdpool</name> <uuid>2d786f7a-2df3-4d79-ae60-1535bcf1c6b5</uuid> <capacity

Hi, I've recently been working on setting up a set of libvirt compute nodes that will be using a ceph rbd pool for storing vm disk image files. I've got a couple of issues I've run into. First, per the standard ceph documentation examples [1], the way to add a disk is to create a block in the VM definition XML that looks something like this: <disk type='network'

Hello, I'm trying to using virsh update-device to update the CDROM from type='file' to ceph rbd iso with type='network'. But I always get error: Failed to update device from disk error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'change': error connecting: Operation not supported I'm using libvirt-libs-3.10.0-1.el7.x86_64 with centos7.4 my original cdrom xml:

Dear libvirt users, I'm stuck on this subject and would appreciate a working example as this looks a supported feature :) After many tries and packages backports, here is my current setup: qemu 2.5 libvirt 3.0 ceph hammer on Debian jessie. Here is the relevent domain xml parts: <disk type='network' device='disk' snapshot='internal'> <driver

Hello Rich, Interesting. Thanks for the explanation. When you specify an rbd on the command line for virt-sysprep, do you expect the path to include the monitor address? e.g.: >> virt-sysprep -a rbd://host-name/pool-name/device-name If I understand correctly, libvirt is able to understand the ceph configuration, so when I create a device with qemu-img I only specify the protocol and

I use "virsh pool-define rbd.xml" to create a rbd storage pool,but get this error virsh pool-define /tmp/rbd.xml error: Failed to define pool from /tmp/rbd.xml error: internal error: missing backend for pool type 8 rbd.xml <pool type="rbd"> <name>cloudstack</name> <source> <name>cloudstack</name> <host

Hi everybody, my background: I'm doing Xen since 10++ years, many years with DRBD for high availability, since some time I'm using preferable GlusterFS with FUSE as replicated storage, where I place the image-files for the vms. In my current project we started (successfully) with Xen/GlusterFS too, but because the provider, where we placed the servers, uses widely CEPH, we decided to

Hello, I'm having trouble connecting to rbd images. It seems like somewhere the name is getting chewed up. I wonder if this is related to my previous troubles [1] [2] with rbd images. I'm trying to add an rbd image, but when I launch the guestfs object I get an error: >> libguestfs: trace: launch = -1 (error) I'm adding a single RBD >> libguestfs: trace: add_drive

I'm having some trouble creating KVM domains with RBD block devices using virsh. I've managed to get virsh to define the domain, but it gives an error when trying to start the domain: error: Failed to start domain test0 error: internal error process exited while connecting to monitor: char device redirected to /dev/pts/3 kvm: -drive

Hello, I would like to use RBD Format 2 images so I can take advantage of layering. However, when I use "qemu-img create -f rbd rbd:data/foo 10G", I get format 1 RBD images. (Actually, when I use the "-f rbd" flag, qemu-img core dumps, but it looks like that feature may have been deprecated [1]) Is there any way to have qemu-img create RBD Format 2 images or am I better off

Hello everybody, This is a cross post to libvirt-users, libguestfs and ceph-users. I came back from FOSDEM 2016 and this was my 7th year or so and seen the awesome development around visualization going on and want to thank everybody for there contributions. I seen presentations from oVirt, OpenStack and quite a few great Redhat people, just like the last previous years. I personally been
