[libvirt-users] help with VM migration problem: getfd, SCM_RIGHTS
by Joe Linoff 21 Oct '13

21 Oct '13

Hi, I am getting the following error when I try to migrate two VM's on my network using virt-manager: Unable to migrate guest: internal error unable to execute QEMU command 'getfd': No file descriptor supplied via SCM_RIGHTS All of the other VM's work just fine. There are 18 and I tested all of them. Version info OS: CentOS 6.4 (2.6.32-358.23.2) [the hypervisors and the guests] Compiled against library: libvirt 0.10.2 Using library: libvirt 0.10.2 Using API: QEMU 0.10.2 Running hypervisor: QEMU 0.12.1 It looks like this might be related to bug 731243 in the red hat bug DB but that was for 0.9.4. If it is related to SELinux permissions, where can I look to fix it? I ran "sealert -a /var/log/audit/audit.log" on the source hypervisor, the destination hypervisor and on the VM itself but no alerts were reported. Any hints would be greatly appreciated, I am not sure what to try next. Thanks, Joe

[libvirt-users] Create RBD Format 2 disk images with qemu-image
by Jon 21 Oct '13

21 Oct '13

Hello, I would like to use RBD Format 2 images so I can take advantage of layering. However, when I use "qemu-img create -f rbd rbd:data/foo 10G", I get format 1 RBD images. (Actually, when I use the "-f rbd" flag, qemu-img core dumps, but it looks like that feature may have been deprecated [1]) Is there any way to have qemu-img create RBD Format 2 images or am I better off using `rbd` to create the image then booting from the disk and performing the install, etc.? Thanks for the assist. Best Regards, Jon A [1] http://lists.ceph.com/pipermail/ceph-users-ceph.com/2013-June/002131.html

[libvirt-users] [FWD: [Qemu-devel] KVM Forum 2013 presentations on Google+ (Hangouts on-air)]
by Daniel P. Berrange 18 Oct '13

18 Oct '13

FYI for those not able to visit KVM Forum this year, we're attempting to have presentations streaming via G+. No guarantees about success, since we're at mercy of the Hotel net connection, but if streaming fails we'll at least have recordings of all sessions to be uploaded afterwards. Keep an eye on the G+ community mentioned below if you want to try and catch any live sessions. We'll put info in there if we suceed in streaming. Also code reviews next week may be subject to delay, since the Red Hat libvirt team will be at the KVM Forum.

Up. Any ideas ? Thank you De : NEVEU Stephane Envoyé : lundi 14 octobre 2013 10:46 À : libvirt-users(a)redhat.com Objet : migrate & virtlockd Hi all, I'm testing virtlockd with libvirt 1.1.3 and it seems I can't migrate my VMs from the first to my second kvm node (on a NFS storage). Virtlockd is locking my qcow2 : Error : resource busy Lockspace resource 'ea3jkj78.....' is locked As a result my VM is paused. How can I fix this behavior ? Thank you for your help.

[libvirt-users] Building XML from working qemu command-line for ARM virtio
by Clark Laughlin 17 Oct '13

17 Oct '13

Hello, I've got a working QEMU command line that I am trying to get into a libvirt dom xml and using domxml-from-native doesn't seem to know how to handle all of it. It's for ARM using some new virtio syntax: qemu-system-arm -machine virt -cpu cortex-a15 -enable-kvm -m 512 -kernel mach-virt-guest-3.11-zImage -display none -serial stdio -netdev type=user,id=mynet -device virtio-net-device,netdev=mynet -drive index=0,id=mydrive,file=saucy-server-cloudimg-armhf.img -device virtio-blk-device,drive=mydrive -initrd saucy-server-cloudimg-armhf-initrd-lpae -append "console=ttyAMA0 root=/dev/vda" Does anyone have any suggestions for converting the rest of it, specifically the -netdev, -drive, and -device params? Here is what domxml-from-native gives: <domain type='kvm' xmlns:qemu='http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0'> <name>unnamed</name> <uuid>fab06af7-aa37-45ca-ac4b-85d9bec89e52</uuid> <memory unit='KiB'>524288</memory> <currentMemory unit='KiB'>524288</currentMemory> <vcpu placement='static'>1</vcpu> <os> <type machine='virt'>hvm</type> <kernel>mach-virt-guest-3.11-zImage</kernel> <initrd>saucy-server-cloudimg-armhf-initrd-lpae</initrd> <cmdline>console=ttyAMA0 root=/dev/vda</cmdline> </os> <cpu mode='custom' match='exact'> <model fallback='allow'>cortex-a15</model> </cpu> <clock offset='utc'/> <on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff> <on_reboot>restart</on_reboot> <on_crash>destroy</on_crash> <devices> <emulator>/home/linaro/ubuntu-cloud-image/qemu-system-arm</emulator> <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <source file='saucy-server-cloudimg-armhf.img'/> <target dev='hda' bus='ide'/> <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/> </disk> <controller type='ide' index='0'/> <controller type='usb' index='0'/> <serial type='stdio'> <target port='0'/> </serial> <console type='stdio'> <target type='serial' port='0'/> </console> <input type='mouse' bus='ps2'/> <graphics type='sdl'/> <video> <model type='cirrus' vram='9216' heads='1'/> </video> <memballoon model='virtio'/> </devices> <qemu:commandline> <qemu:arg value='-display'/> <qemu:arg value='none'/> <qemu:arg value='-netdev'/> <qemu:arg value='type=user,id=mynet'/> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='virtio-net-device,netdev=mynet'/> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='virtio-blk-device,drive=mydrive'/> </qemu:commandline> </domain> Thank you, Clark L

[libvirt-users] libvirtError: Unable to add bridge br0 port vnet0: Operation not supported

Hi I am using Libvirt 1.1.2 with Openstack Havana (RC2, nova-network) and openvswitch 1.4.2+git20120612-9.1.

[libvirt-users] libvirt_lxc: "reboot -f" causes libvirt_lxc process to stop, but domain is still "running" for libvirt
by Florian Klink 16 Oct '13

16 Oct '13

Hi, I have a libvirt_lxc system container (with systemd). After running "reboot -f" inside the container, I get "Rebooting.\n". htop shows that the libvirt_lxc and all subprocesses are stopped, but from libvirt api/virsh/virt-manager, the domain is still "running". So it looks like libvirtd doesn't detect that libvirt_lxc process was stopped... Florian

[libvirt-users] qemuMonitorIO internal error

15 Oct '13

Hi, I am trying to get some VMs running under qemu-kvm. At some point the VM starts, but then they shutdown by themselves and I see those messages in the log: 2013-10-11 18:28:57.165+0000: 4148: error : qemuMonitorIO:615 : internal error: End of file from monitor 2013-10-11 18:28:57.165+0000: 4148: debug : qemuMonitorIO:648 : Error on monitor internal error: End of file from monitor Any ideas what could cause this behavior?

[libvirt-users] virDomainGetCPUStats missing in Java API bindings ?
by Atul Gosain 15 Oct '13

15 Oct '13

Hi All I am trying to get the performance statistics for KVM using Java bindings. I found some api's for getting memory stats but not able to find any for cpu stats. I found virDomainGetCPUStats which look like its going to return cpu stats for a VM at http://libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt.html and http://libvirt.org/hvsupport.html . I couldnt find these methods getting called from java source too. Which libvirt version does Java API correspond to ? I m using Java API 0.5.1 . If i want to get the virDomainGetCPUStats which is available from 0.9.x versions of libvirt, whats the way to get it in Java API bindings. Thanks Atul
