[libvirt] virsh save produces "unknown migration protocol: stdio"

I just want to forward this comment on from #virt so that we don't lose it. It appears to be an incompatibility between libvirt 0.5.0 and recent KVM. <knowinters> Hi, I'm using libvirt 0.5.0 with kvm-79, when I do virsh save kvm replies with "unknown migration protocol: stdio". A state file is created, but it's only 4K and when restored the vm boots from scratch instead of starting where it was when i saved. I googled but couldn't find a resolution. Is this a known issue? <knowinters> nm i think i see what's happening.. it <knowinters> 's using the exec: migration method to call dd to move the state from stdio to a file <knowinters> exec: isn't in kvm-79 i don't think, but i see it in git so ill try that Rich. -- Richard Jones, Emerging Technologies, Red Hat http://et.redhat.com/~rjones Read my OCaml programming blog: http://camltastic.blogspot.com/ Fedora now supports 68 OCaml packages (the OPEN alternative to F#) http://cocan.org/getting_started_with_ocaml_on_red_hat_and_fedora
