[libvirt-users] ebtables rules are not applied when using libvirt nwfilter
by Thinh Nguyen 02 Apr '14

02 Apr '14

Dear all, I configure my kvm vm like this: <interface type='bridge'> <mac address='52:54:00:dd:b2:c5'/> <source bridge='nw-vpc-1017'/> <target dev='if-57'/> <model type='virtio'/> <filterref filter='clean-traffic'> <parameter name='IP' value='10.0.0.1'/> </filterref> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/> </interface> But when i start it and show the ebtables rules, nothing is applied [root@kvmhost ~]# ebtables -L Bridge table: filter Bridge chain: INPUT, entries: 0, policy: ACCEPT Bridge chain: FORWARD, entries: 0, policy: ACCEPT Bridge chain: OUTPUT, entries: 0, policy: ACCEPT Bridge chain: libvirt_qemu_FORWARD, entries: 0, policy: DROP Please show me what wrong i've done. Thanks so much! -- Nguyen Thinh

[libvirt-users] Advice request for building a centralized vm disk provider server
by Pasquale Dir 01 Apr '14

01 Apr '14

Hello again, sorry for mailing in so short time but I have another question about live migration. >From redhat documentation I see that the storage for a VM which has to be migrated has to be shared throught some mechanism and I have chosen iscsi. Anyway I now would need a way to dinamically create a new virtual machine and so a virtual hard disk, note that this vm will have to be migrated too. I though about this solution: I would share an HUGE iscsi target, this target is a logical hard drive containing many disk images which would be the VM's hard drives. I can easily clone a vm by making a simple file copy of a vm disk. This would allow me to create a VM by specifying a path like <iscsi target path>/disk1.img. I have two problems: 1)how to get an unique <iscsi target path>? On my phisical host it is mounted as a random uuid in the /media folder. 2)will migration work with a <file> instead of a <device> as hard disk field? If you have any better solution, even involing the change from iscsi to another technology, you are free to propose it to me. Sorry for bothering, Pasquale

[libvirt-users] Async migration: possible?
by Pasquale Dir 01 Apr '14

01 Apr '14

I am seeing that migrate() function is blocking, isn't there a non blocking function with a callback associated to it, so to report events like end migration, migration progress (job domain info informations) and so on? Pasquale

[libvirt-users] Programmatically force shutdown a guest: possible?
by Pasquale Dir 31 Mar '14

31 Mar '14

I am looking at the shutdown method, but if the guest system is a desktop system, like for example ubuntu, it just has the effect to show a box prompting the user for a shutdown/reboot/ and such. I could enter the guest and change this default behaviour and it actually works..but I'd like for a way to send a shutdown command without doing so. Is it possible?

[libvirt-users] Connecting libvirt to manually compiled QEMU
by Asadullah Hussain 31 Mar '14

31 Mar '14

Hello I have manually compiled a customized qemu (1.4.0) which runs fine on its own (create VM etc) but I want to access this qemu through libvirt (virt-manager, virsh etc). But the libvirt driver only looks into "/usr/bin" for qemu binaries, how can I tell libvirt to connect to my qemu which is placed at "/home/user/qemu" directory. -- Asadullah Hussain

[libvirt-users] Specify a disk image file which is on an iscsi target
by Pasquale Dir 31 Mar '14

31 Mar '14

Hello, for my vm I'd like to specify a disk image which would be on an iscsi target. Currently, by using targets directly, I'd just specify the path in /dev/disk/by-path/ip-192.168.1.2:3260-iscsi-iqn.myiqn but how to specify a file which is actually INSIDE this path, ex. /dev/disk/by-path/ip-192.168.1.2:3260-iscsi-iqn.myiqn/myVmImage.img ? I saw that there is another path in /media/myHomeUser/anId but do this id changes each time?

[libvirt-users] virsh attach-disk live guest problem
by john fisher 28 Mar '14

28 Mar '14

Hypervisor= ubuntu 12.04.2 guest = ubuntu 12.04.4 used virt-manager to create a new storage file in qcow2 format on hypervisor and then attach it to the guest. In virt-man I can see the disk is attached. trying virsh attach-disk I get a failure saying disk already attached virsh dump xml shows the disk at vdb as it should be but on the guest, fdisk -l shows no vdb and its not in /proc I found one reference to apparmor saying add /proc rw to hypervisor's apparmor libvirt conf But I see some release notes that might be about avoiding this ( sounds insecure) so... Do I have to stop and restart the guest, change apparmor or what? -- John Fisher

[libvirt-users] Using qemu+ssh on openSUSE 13.1/Tumbleweed
by Johannes Kastl 28 Mar '14

28 Mar '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone, I am trying to get libvirt with qemu-kvm to work on my machines running openSUSE 13.1 / Tumbleweed. My question is in regard to using qemu+ssh, which would be my preference, as I already have a working ssh-key authentication with SSH-Agent. I set the permissions of the manage-socket to 0770, added my user to the libvirt group and set auth_unix_rw = "none" in /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf. I am now able to see all my VMs using virsh list --all (I had to set a default_uri in .config/libvirt/libvirt.conf to get any non-empty output). Trying from another machine (say target hostname is HOSTX, username testuser) with virsh -c qemu+ssh://testusers@HOSTX/system always results in >> error: failed to connect to the hypervisor error: internal error: >> received hangup / error event on socket I see this in /var/log/messages (lines will be wrapped in the mail, sorry): > 2014-03-24T21:25:55.023525+01:00 HOSTX sshd[3509]: Accepted > publickey for testuser from 192.168.79.8 port 54176 ssh2 > 2014-03-24T21:25:55.024744+01:00 HOSTX sshd[3509]: > pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user testuser by (uid=0) > 2014-03-24T21:25:55.025717+01:00 HOSTX kernel: [ 3162.225673] > type=1006 audit(1395692755.024:69): pid=3509 uid=0 old > auid=4294967295 new auid=1000 old ses=4294967295 new ses=24 res=1 > 2014-03-24T21:25:55.027501+01:00 HOSTX systemd[1]: Starting Session > 24 of user testuser. 2014-03-24T21:25:55.027918+01:00 HOSTX > systemd-logind[703]: New session 24 of user testuser. > 2014-03-24T21:25:55.028213+01:00 HOSTX systemd[1]: Started Session > 24 of user testuser. 2014-03-24T21:25:55.081719+01:00 HOSTX > sshd[3511]: Received disconnect from 192.168.79.8: 11: disconnected > by user 2014-03-24T21:25:55.082095+01:00 HOSTX sshd[3509]: > pam_unix(sshd:session): session closed for user testuser > 2014-03-24T21:25:55.086268+01:00 HOSTX systemd-logind[703]: Removed > session 24. I am curious about the 'Received disconnect from 192.168.79.8: 11: disconnected by user' thing. How can I fix this? Or how to debug this? How can I get more info from libvirt? /var/log/kvm is an empty directory, /var/log/libvirt/qemu just has logs for the different VMs. I have already tried to get polkit running, although I think it should not be used due to the auth_unix_rw = "none".

[libvirt-users] host crashes "unable to handle paging request"
by Raphael Bauduin 28 Mar '14

28 Mar '14

Hi, we have regular crashed of a kvm host with the error "unable to handle paging request". Can this be due to memory over-commitment even if some memory is still used by the kernel for caches and buffers? (collectd graph shows no free memory, with 15G used, very little buffers, and 1G cache). There are 32GB of swap, of which only 150MB are used. I suspect might be the direction to search to find the cause, but would be happy to learn from people versed in the kernel behaviour to confirm or reject my hypothesis. Below is the full error. Thanks!
