[libvirt-users] snapshot-create-as for a single disk not all disks
by cmcc.dylan
Hi everyone!
Is there any way to create snaphot for a single disk of a virtual machine. As I konw, "virsh snapshot-create-as domain_name snapshot_name --disk-only" traverses all block devices to create snapshot. However I don't want to create snapshot except for root partition.
The version of qemu and libvirt I used is as follows:
qemu-1.4.2 and libvrit-0.10.2
I meet an error when I delete the snapshot which is created by "snapshot-create-as" command. whether or not qemu(1.4.2) and libvirt(0.10.2) don't support the function currently.
Look forward to your help!

System:
$ cat /etc/issue

$ uname -a
Linux Matt-HP 3.5.0-34-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 6 20:20:19 UTC 2013
i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux
I have a converted VMWare virtual machine which I converted by using:
$ vmware2libvirt -f ./WinXPPro.vmx > WinXPPro.xml
$ virsh -c qemu:///system define WinXPPro.xml
After various efforts to start the machine, I changed some of the setting
(as advised by the error messages I got). My changes were:
<domain type='kvm'> to <domain type='qemu'>
and
<emulator>/usr/bin/kvm</emulator> to
<emulator>/usr/bin/qemu-system-i386</emulator>
and
whatever it was before (i guess type 'raw') to <driver name='qemu'
type='vmdk'/>
Now "virsh edit WinXPPro" gives me:

When I got the "permission denied" error, I found advice to change the user
to libvirt-qemu and the group to kvm. Both exist on my system.

by varun bhatnagar
Hi,
I am trying to install xen and provide libvrit support to it but while
installing at some point of time it tries to connect to GIT repository and
creates a clone but I am behind firewall and it is getting timed out.... :(
I am pasting a screenshot below. Can anyone of you please help me out with
this one.

[libvirt-users] Libvirt and Qemu for Debian Squeeze
by McEvoy, James
Has anyone built current debs for Debian Squeeze (v6.0.7) that supports virtio-scsi, Fibre Channel World Wind Names and virt-install for the virtio-scis controller (0.600.4)? I have a need to run a RHEL 6.4 guest on a Debian Squeeze KVM host and I do not have experience building debs instead of rpms.

[libvirt-users] cgroup error starting domains
by Matteo Bernardini
Hi,
I've got a small problem using libvirt-1.0.5.1 (with the latest patch in
the v1.0.5-maint branch on git added).
I'm using slackware64-14.0 but the situation is exactly the same described
on a debian bug
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=707201
When trying to start a domain I got
error: Failed to start domain debian-wheezy-xfce
error: Unable to initialize /machine cgroup: Invalid argument
with this in libvirtd.log
virCgroupDetect:373 : Failed to detect mounts for /machine
qemuInitCgroup:425 : Unable to initialize /machine cgroup: Invalid argument
and the error goes away if I unmount /sys/fs/cgroup.
Reverting to 1.0.4 fixes this, but this exposes another thing that I report
even if I'm not sure it's an error: if I create a domain with 1.0.5.1 (I
use the latest virt-manager to do this), in the xml of the domain there's a
line that doesn't seem to have the close tag
<controller type='pci' index='0' model='pci-root'/>
If I revert to 1.0.4 the domain with this line in the xml doesn't even get
listed between the available domains and I got this in libvirtd.log
virDomainControllerDefParseXML:4838 : internal error Unknown controller
type 'pci'
deleting the interested line make it available again.
Please let me know if you need further informations on the matters.

Re: [libvirt-users] Not able to open Xen Connection using libvirt
by varun bhatnagar
No it was not booted with xen kernel. Actually I tried booting it with xen
kernel but I am getting a message saying Error No 15 : File not found.
I tried editing the grub entry and noticed that there are 3 entries:
1) kernel /boot/xen.gz vga= mode-0x345
2) module /boot/vmlinuz-3.0.13-0.27-xen.......
3) module /boot/initrd-3.0.13-0.27-xen
And in /boot i listed down the files, only xen.gz is there. Rest of the 2
files are not there (pasted the screenshot below).
Even at one site it was given to remove /boot from the path but that also
din't work.
How shall I solve this one?

I manually changed the
<emulator>/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64</emulator> to
<emulator>/usr/bin/qemu-system-i386</emulator> since my hard drive
partition contains 32bit Windows 7, although I'm not sure that this
applies.
My current machine setup it dual-boot, so I can boot Windows 7 from
the first partition (/dev/sda1) using a grub boot menu. However, when
I start the Windows 7 VM, I just get "Booting from Hard Disk" in the
virt-manager console.
What could be the problem?
Lastly: /def/sda1 in a boot partition, but the rest of Windows is
installed on /dev/sda2, but this partition is not marked bootable.
thanks
