[libvirt-users] [offtopic] OpenNebulaConf2013: Extended keynote lineup and deadline for talk proposals
by Javier Fontan 05 Jun '13

Hello, I hope you don't find this email too offtopic. We have just published an expanded keynote line-up for the OpenNebula Conference 2013 (http://blog.opennebula.org/?p=4707) that includes experts from leading institutions using OpenNebula. The first ever OpenNebula Conference will be held on Sept. 24-26 in Berlin and is intended to serve as a meeting point for OpenNebula cloud users, developers, administrators, builders, integrators and researchers. As you may know OpenNebula uses libvirt to manage KVM and VMware VMs and some of you may be using it in production. I think your experiences will be very valuable. There are only 10 days left to submit talk proposals (the deadline is June 15th). We are looking forward to welcoming you personally in Berlin!. Cheers -- Join us at OpenNebulaConf2013 in Berlin from the 24th to the 26th of September 2013!

hi, I have a problem that confuse me so long. I run a guest os(VM1) on a physical machine(PM1) that had enabled virtualization . Now, I also want to run a guest os (VM2) under VM1,but VM1 print the following message to me: [2013-06-05 10:43:04,379][ERROR] machine:init_vm(57271)|state:init_vm|Create domain failed, unsupported configuration: Domain requires KVM, but it is not available.

[libvirt-users] About the change of a VM's vcpu count in runtime?
by Dennis Chen 02 Jun '13

02 Jun '13

Hi, We know that there is a command "setvcpus" in virsh used to "change number of virtual CPUs", now we just have the need to change vcpu count dynamically for a running VM, so I tried this command (the vcpu count is 2 in the VM xml file), below is the result: virsh # setvcpus 3 --count 4 error: invalid argument: requested vcpus is greater than max allowable vcpus for the domain: 4 > 2 virsh # setvcpus 3 --count 1 error: Operation not supported: qemu didn't unplug the vCPUs properly So I tried another way: log into the running VM, and "echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online", after that I can find only one processor in the vm through '/proc/cpuinfo', but in virsh, the vcpuinfo still shows: virsh # vcpuinfo 3 VCPU: 0 CPU: 0 State: running CPU time: 13.5s CPU Affinity: yyyy VCPU: 1 CPU: 1 State: running CPU time: 6.9s CPU Affinity: yyyy So the question is: is there any method I can't find yet to change the vcpu count of a running vm dynamically? BRs, Dennis
