Re: [libvirt PATCH 8/9] qemu: Allow migration over UNIX socket

This allows: a) migration without access to network b) complete control of the migration stream c) easy migration between containerised libvirt daemons on the same host Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1638889 Signed-off-by: Martin Kletzander <mkletzan(a)redhat.com&gt; --- docs/manpages/virsh.rst | 17 ++++- docs/migration.html.in | 33 ++++++++++ src/qemu/qemu_migration.c | 128 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------- 3 files changed, 139 insertions(+), 39 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/manpages/virsh.rst b/docs/manpages/virsh.rst index cbb3c18deb30..82f7c9f77488 100644 --- a/docs/manpages/virsh.rst +++ b/docs/manpages/virsh.rst @@ -3237,12 +3237,12 @@ has different semantics: In a special circumstance where you require a complete control of the connection and/or libvirt does not have network access to the remote side you can use a -unix transport in the URI and specify a socket path in the query, for example +UNIX transport in the URI and specify a socket path in the query, for example with the qemu driver you could use this: .. code-block:: - qemu+unix://?socket=/path/to/socket + qemu+unix:///system?socket=/path/to/socket When *migrateuri* is not specified, libvirt will automatically determine the hypervisor specific URI.
