[libvirt] restore as init script
by Matthias Pfafferodt 21 Feb '09

21 Feb '09

Hello, first i'm using kvm-84 and libvirt 0.6.0 on opensuse 11.1. I try to use the attached script to save some domains on shutdown and restore them on host boot. The script also tries to cleanly shutdown all other domains. The save and shutdown part is working as expected but on system boot the restore of the saved domains fails. If I manually run 'rclibvirtdomains start' after a boot it needs 1 to 3 tries to restore the domain. After that I can run a stop/start cycle of libvirtdomains without problems. How can I debug this problem? After the system boot libvirt seems to have problems to connect to qemu/kvm. The log messages are for a failed start: --- start log --- LC_ALL=C PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin HOME=/ /usr/bin/qemu-kvm -S -M pc -m 1024 -smp 1 -name kvm-virt03 -uuid 864c0b59-705e-5d78-dc3e-1a9de7dd305f -monitor pty -pidfile /var/run/libvirt/qemu//kvm-virt03.pid -boot c -drive file=/dev/virtual/kvm_virt03,if=ide,index=0,boot=on -net nic,macaddr=00:16:3e:00:01:05,vlan=0,model=e1000 -net tap,fd=15,script=,vlan=0,ifname=vnet0 -serial none -parallel none -usb -vnc 192.168.110.78:0 -k de -soundhw es1370 -incoming exec:cat char device redirected to /dev/pts/6 qemu_popen: returning result of qemu_fopen_ops cat: write error: Broken pipe --- end log --- and for a successful start: --- start log --- LC_ALL=C PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin HOME=/ /usr/bin/qemu-kvm -S -M pc -m 1024 -smp 1 -name kvm-virt03 -uuid 864c0b59-705e-5d78-dc3e-1a9de7dd305f -monitor pty -pidfile /var/run/libvirt/qemu//kvm-virt03.pid -boot c -drive file=/dev/virtual/kvm_virt03,if=ide,index=0,boot=on -net nic,macaddr=00:16:3e:00:01:05,vlan=0,model=e1000 -net tap,fd=15,script=,vlan=0,ifname=vnet0 -serial none -parallel none -usb -vnc 192.168.110.78:0 -k de -soundhw es1370 -incoming exec:cat char device redirected to /dev/pts/6 qemu_popen: returning result of qemu_fopen_ops info cpus * CPU #0: pc=0xffffffff80221f1d thread_id=7398 cont --- end log --- Kind regards Matthias Pfafferodt -- Matthias Pfafferodt - http://www.mapfa.de Matthias.Pfafferodt <at> mapfa.de ## Path: System/Virtualization ## Description: libvirtd stop configuration ## Type: yesno ## Default: yes # # On 'libvirtd stop' all running domains are killed.

[libvirt] bridge-to-lan interfaces with network type
by Zhengang Li 21 Feb '09

21 Feb '09

Hi All, The documentation on the libvirt website explains the way to define a bridge to LAN network interfaces with a 'bridge' type. E.g.: <interface type='bridge'> <source bridge='br0'/> <mac address='52:54:00:00:00:11'/> </interface> I'm working in a limited environment. Only 'network' type interfaces can be defined for a guest. Is it possible to define a bridge-to-lan interfaces with a 'network' type? The question actually goes to: How to write a network definition xml for libvirt to use as bridge to LAN type NIC in guest? I tried with 'nat' and 'route' forward in network xml, neither works for me. Regards, Zhengang

[libvirt] Java binding - JVM crashes .. sometimes
by Daniel Schwager 18 Feb '09

18 Feb '09

Hi, since I updated to the new libvirt-version (CVS snapshot of today), my JVM running my multi-thread application "sometimes" will crashes if I open or close libvirt-connection (on KVM hypervisor). I didn't find out the exact szenario - simple junit tests are running well. But inside my main application (multi tread, multiple fast access to libvirt java interface) will crash the JVM. The crash-report looks like ALWAYS like the following 2 examples. Is there a way to - debug this - make the JNI code more robust ? - make the open/close of libvirt more robust ? I think the JVM crashes, because the libvirt crashes. Is there a way to look inside libvirt to see a "crash" of the native libvirt-prog ? My application runs very well with the old version libvirt-0.4.5. I think, problem starts with >= 0.5. One more: Something, it happens, that a virsh -command on the commandline prints out an error message similar to "Can't connect to hypervisor" (I can't reproduce it at the moment). Multiple repeating the command works well. This happens not often - but sometimes.. Now, the Stacktrace of the crashed JVM ** first ...

[libvirt] A problem about libvir
by 刘刚 18 Feb '09

18 Feb '09

Hello, I have a problem for help. I use the libvir library 0.4.2 on Xen 3.2.0, the host OS is Suse 10.2 . I start a windows domain (windows xp). I use the function virDomainAttachDevice() to attach an iSCSI device to the windows domain,but it failed. I can use this function to attach an iSCSI device to a linux domain. How can I attach an iSCSI device to a windows domain ? or libvir doesn't support attach device to windows domain ? thanks a lot! MOBILE: 13622388220 HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO.,LTD.

[libvirt] [PATCH] Initialize vm def monitor fd
by Cole Robinson 17 Feb '09

17 Feb '09

We weren't properly initializing the monitor fd value in the VM definition structure. If qemu failed to start up, this could lead to closing stdin, which made all sorts of poo hit the fan. The attached patch fixes this. Thanks, Cole
