[libvirt-users] some problem with snapshot by libvirt
by xingxing gao
Hi,all,i am using libvirt to manage my vm,in these days i am testing
the libvirt snapshot ,but meet some problem:
the snapshot was created from this command:
snapshot-create-as win7 --disk-only --diskspec
vda,snapshot=external --diskspec hda,snapshot=no
but when i tried to revert from the snapshot which created from the
above command ,i got error below:
virsh # snapshot-revert win7 1338041515 --force
error: unsupported configuration: revert to external disk snapshot not
supported yet
version:
virsh # version
Compiled against library: libvir 0.9.4
Using library: libvir 0.9.4
Using API: QEMU 0.9.4
Running hypervisor: QEMU 1.0.93

[libvirt-users] libvirt, lvm thin provisioning
by Michael Mol
I know that lvm supports thin provisioning, and I think I have a pretty
good grasp on how that works. Does libvirt support lvm thin
provisioning and thin snapshots?
I know that in order to set up lvm thin provisioning by hand, I have to
create a thin-provisioning pool within the volume group, and then
thin-provisioned logical volumes and thin-provisioned snapshots can be
created within that thin-provision pool.
I also know that it's possible to have more than one thin-provisioning
pool within the same volume group, which tells me that in order to
properly set up any lvm-aware application to use thin-provisioning, I
may need to inform it which thin-provisioning pool it should base LVs
and snapshots from.
When I look at the example here:
http://libvirt.org/storage.html#StorageBackendLogical
I don't see anything particular which tells me it supports building off
a thin-provisioning pool if I specify such by name.
Checking here:
http://libvirt.org/formatstorage.html#StoragePool
I again don't see anything specific about logical thick vs thin
provisioning. I would expect to see *something*, as there are
performance consequences when making such choices, so I'm again not
sure libvirt recognizes a difference.
So is this something that libvirt can do? And is there good
documentation somewhere on the subject?

[libvirt-users] Help required in simulating libvirt TLS server
by Arun Viswanath
Hi All,
Will some one explain how is this tls libvirt server is implemented. For my
testing purpose I need to implement the similar TLS server in Java or
Python and this server is capable to receive all libvirt calls like
getCapabilities, hostname etc and return response as I'm configured.
Basically I need to simulate the libvirt TLS server. I tried creating many
TLS server but none of the my TLS server implemenation is capable to do
proper handshake with python libvirt client and do successful calls. Any
ideas or help will be appreciable.
Thanks In Advance,
Arun V

[libvirt-users] Hypervisor load much greater than that of the guest
by Damion Parry
Hello,
I've got a situation where I have a couple of vm's running at 300+% cpu on the hypervisor:
9893 qemu 20 0 13.0g 8.2g 4256 S 328.0 4.3 59793:17 qemu-kvm
Yet the load within the vm is in the regions of:
1.00, 1.02, 0.98
Everything is reporting OK on both the hypervisor & guest, guest is a qcow2 image on local storage.
If anyone could point me in the right direction to start debugging this I'd be grateful.
Hypervisor: CentOS release 6.4 (Final) 2.6.32-358.23.2.el6.x86_64
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.355.0.1.el6_4.9.x86_64
libvirt-0.10.2-18.el6_4.14.x86_64
Guest: CentOS release 6.4 (Final) 2.6.32-358.14.1.el6.x86_64
Thanks in advance,
