[libvirt-users] RX dropped packets on guests subnets
by pichon 26 Jan '16

26 Jan '16

Hello, I have first a question (and then may be a problem), that I have difficulties to understand and eventually to investigate. On each of my guests VM, I see constantly a RX dropped number increasing , Even if the VM does nothing ! ifconfig eth0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 192.168.100.15 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.100.255 inet6 fe80::5054:ff:fe36:ac80 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> ether 52:54:00:36:ac:80 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 1966 bytes 122391 (119.5 KiB) RX errors 0 dropped 1288 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 552 bytes 99939 (97.5 KiB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING> mtu 65536 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 scopeid 0x10<host> loop txqueuelen 0 (Local Loopback) RX packets 4 bytes 340 (340.0 B) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 4 bytes 340 (340.0 B) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 (1) Is that a normal behaviour ? (2) Could you give me some hints where/how to investigate Here are a number of informations: - The virsh LAN setup - The VM XML description - iptables-save on the hosts - and then some packages version Thanks in advance Patrick My setup is as follow: An host running a Fedora 23 (minimal) and a VM guest running a Fedora 23 I have created 3 Networks , - 2 fully isolated ( mgt-private-lan and

[libvirt-users] starting a domain only when you have enough resources
by Andrei Perietanu 26 Jan '16

26 Jan '16

Hi all, I am running KVM on a 3.18 kernel. The system runs and Atom processor with 2Gb RAM. Using KVM you obviously can over allocate your resources: say you have 4 guests each configured with 1GB ram. Running all four at the same time, depending on the workload, can crash the system - I get a kernel trace when this happens. But let's consider a simpler case: one guest with 1.5 Gb RAM, ubuntu 14.03. During the installation the system will again crash. The memory statistics (top or proc/meminfo) will show that the FreeMemory goes down to 12Mb when this happens - which kind of makes sense considering the host will require some RAM to run. But the question is: does libvirt offer any way to prevent this from happening? Some way of not allowing the user to start a guest unless you have enough free memory. I know how much ram each guest has configured but that is not enough. I need to know how much the system has available, and just reading the free memory statistic does not help much since that is only a snapshot - when running a guest you can have 1gb free now, and 10 mb free 2 min later. Any ideas? Thanks, Andrei -- The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.

[libvirt-users] Remote Vbox connection to windows host
by Pavlo Shchelokovskyy 26 Jan '16

26 Jan '16

Hi all, I'd like to use libvirt to control/have access to virtual machines created with VirtualBox _on a Windows host_ (from the Linux guest of the same Windows-hosted VirtualBox). It is for testing purposes only,, so security does not matter much. Is it possible at all? I have some troubles understanding the note in bold at https://libvirt.org/drvvbox.html. Does that mean that one has to have a (running) libvirt daemon on the same host where VirtualBox is running to have a remote connection to this hypervizor with libvirt? Best regards, -- Dr. Pavlo Shchelokovskyy Senior Software Engineer Mirantis Inc www.mirantis.com

[libvirt-users] Adding a Virtio Serial Controller
by Jean-Pierre Ribeauville 21 Jan '16

H, As I want to add a channel device programmatically via libvirt API , I got an error due to the fact that the Guest has no VirtIO Serial Controller in its configuration. Is it possible to add it via libvirt API ? Thx for help. Regards, J.P. Ribeauville P: +33.(0).1.47.17.20.49 .

[libvirt-users] executing libvirt commands as a different user
by Andrei Perietanu 21 Jan '16

21 Jan '16

I am using the libvirt API to manage VMs on the system, using a python wrapper to execute commands. I need to allow a webserver to access these commands and mostly read information about the VMs. The problem is that when using the web interface you use are basically running the commands as different user. Since libvirtd is run as root by default you get permission errors. Is there any way of getting around this without using polkit?

[libvirt-users] Error after failed external snapshot.
by Dominique Ramaekers 21 Jan '16

Hi, I use this procedure to backup my VM's: http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Live-disk-backup-with-active-blockcommit It works on my current host: Compiled against library: libvirt 1.2.16 Using library: libvirt 1.2.16 Gebruikte API: QEMU 1.2.16 Draaiende hypervisor: QEMU 2.1.0 Now I'm doing a test on a testing host: Compiled against library: libvirt 1.2.21 Using library: libvirt 1.2.21 Gebruikte API: QEMU 1.2.21 Draaiende hypervisor: QEMU 2.5.0 The first time, the active block commit failed because the block action was stuck on 100% and I got this error: 'block copy still active: disk 'vda' not ready for pivot yet' I did a 'virsh blockjob PCVIRT1 vda -abort' and started 'virsh blockcommit PCVIRT1 vda --active --verbose -pivot' again. This way, the external snapshot was commited ok. Now I get this error when I want to create an external snapshot: fout: internal error: kan QEMU commando 'transaction' niet uitvoeren: The feature 'snapshot' is not enabled I can't find a lot of information about this. Some help will be appreciated. Greetings, Dominique.

Problem is that , in the xml describing the Guest , this 'state' value : <target type='virtio' name='agent' state='disconnected'/> showing if the channel is connected on the Guest side is missing. Does it mean that some qemu/KVM components are too old within KILO OpenStack release ? FYI , here are the installed related packages versions coming with KILO: libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-driver-storage-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 libvirt-python-1.2.8-7.el7_1.1.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 libvirt-gconfig-0.1.7-3.el7.x86_64 libvirt-client-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-driver-nodedev-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-config-network-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-driver-network-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-driver-nwfilter-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-config-nwfilter-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 libvirt-glib-0.1.7-3.el7.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-driver-interface-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-driver-secret-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 libvirt-gobject-0.1.7-3.el7.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-kvm-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 [root@localhost bin]# rpm -qa | grep kvm qemu-kvm-1.5.3-86.el7_1.8.x86_64 qemu-kvm-common-1.5.3-86.el7_1.8.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-kvm-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 [root@localhost bin]# rpm -qa | grep qemu libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu-1.2.8-16.el7_1.4.x86_64 qemu-guest-agent-2.1.0-4.el7.x86_64 qemu-kvm-1.5.3-86.el7_1.8.x86_64 qemu-img-1.5.3-86.el7_1.6.x86_64 qemu-kvm-common-1.5.3-86.el7_1.8.x86_64 qemu-img-1.5.3-86.el7_1.8.x86_64 ipxe-roms-qemu-20130517-6.gitc4bce43.el7.noarch Thanks for help, Regards, J.P.

[libvirt-users] unable to dissect libvirt rpc packets using wireshark plugin
by gowrishankar 20 Jan '16

20 Jan '16

Hi, I am trying libvirt plugin in wireshark to dissect RPC payload in TCP, but finding dissector code not really working. My env is Fedora core 21 (x86_64) and installed packages are as follow: wireshark-1.12.6-1.fc21.x86_64 libvirt-wireshark-1.2.9.3-2.fc21.x86_64 Earlier, just after installation, I noticed libvirt.so available only in /usr/lib64/wireshark/plugins/1.12.5/ . Wireshark could not load libvirt plugin. So, I copied above .so into 1.12.6/ under same plugins folder, following it wireshark could list libvirt as supported protocol. tshark -G protocols | grep libvirt Libvirt libvirt libvirt However, on checking with some pcaps which has libvirt RPC calls captured on wire, wireshark does not list libvirt RPC packets, as I search for "libvirt" protocol in pcap. Have anyone experienced this before or if you have any pointer that I could check in my env, that would be very helpful. -- Regards, Gowrishankar M

[libvirt-users] Trouble with volume permissions
by Frank Laszlo 20 Jan '16

20 Jan '16

I'm working on an integration that uses QCOW2 volumes with backing stores. I have qemu configured to run as the "qemu" user, which seems to be fine. I now need to make sure my volumes are readable by this user. However, it seems the volume being created is owned by root, instead of "qemu" as I'd expect it to be. I tried various things and was unable to get it to create the file as the correct user. I've supplied a link to the XML I'm using to create the volumes. If anyone has any ideas it would be massively helpful.
