[libvirt-users] Domain, volume and storage-pool
by Shahar Havivi 07 Apr '16

07 Apr '16

Hi, I am using virStorageVolDownload to download volumes for the VDSM project. What is the best approch to know domains volume? Is there an api for associating domain to its pool and then to its volumes? I was able to do that by iterating the pools and then iterating all its volume..., is there a better way? Thank you, Shahar Havivi.

[libvirt-users] Encrytped USB devices
by Daniel Vázquez 05 Apr '16

05 Apr '16

Hi here! How libvirt virsh solves attachment of hot plug/unplug encrytped USB devices?? We've no problems attaching full encrypted(LUKS) usb disk or memory pen to guest using virsh attach-disk command. But not working using virsh attach-device to use USB pass-through and hot plug/unplug features. USB pass-through works properly without encryption. Any procedure to make it working?, attach-disk expects for a static source (for example /dev/sdX), and we need some dynamical source assigment due USB temporal and different host target, it's why we're trying the attachment via attach-device to take advantage of plug/unplug via USB pass-through, but only works on non-encrypted usb devices. We unknow if exist any alternatively way to make attach-disk more dinamically, maybe by udev script or uuid source identification and some re-attach procedure, any recommendation?? or virsh command direct solution?? Thanks P.D. Please be free to move at libvir-list(a)redhat.com (for development) if it's a new requested feature or fixing.

[libvirt-users] Can you get page dirtying information on non-migrating VMs?
by tfcyundlim dehasawzdg 04 Apr '16

04 Apr '16

Hello everyone, I've been looking through the libvirt API to get information about memory page dirtying of VMs. I need these to aid decisions on which VM to migrate. The only thing I found is virDomainGetJobStats() with VIR_DOMAIN_JOB_MEMORY_DIRTY_RATE but that only works when a migration is already running. Is there a way to get information on VMs which are not already migrating? Thanks and best regards, Dave

[libvirt-users] LXC don't support network type of ethernet
by Pradeep kumar 04 Apr '16

04 Apr '16

Hi All, Applied patch from below link in order to add ethernet network type support to LXC. https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-January/msg00318.html Launching LXC based VM using openstack Icehouse release which uses libvirt in background fails with below error: LOG shows "*error : virNetDevVethCreate:196 : internal error: Failed to allocate free veth pair after 10 attempts*" and also gives* ret == -1 for* *virNetDevVethCreate which depicts that "**virNetDevVethCreate" failed.* But by defining XML file manually using *virsh* *utility* I am able to launch LXC based VM successfully with network type Ethernet. *Something went wrong while launching the same with openstack nova. * Please help as I am quite new to this virtualization world. Its urgent any help/pointers are welcome. Thanks Pradeep Kumar Regards Pradeep Kumar

[libvirt-users] hanging libvirtd 1.2.17 centos7
by Philippe D'Anjou 03 Apr '16

03 Apr '16

Hi,I am having an issue on several KVM hosts which run CentOs7 and libvirt-daemon-1.2.17-13.el7_2.3.x86_64 .About once a week the libvirtd hangs forever and becomes unresponsive, the only help is to restart it. I attached gdb to it and the output of it can be seen at the end of the mail. Laine from the irc channel suggests it has to do with dbus/policykit. If anybody got an idea what it could be and point me in the right direction or help further analyzing this issue I'd be very grateful. kind regards Philippe d'Anjou (gdb) thread apply all bt Thread 16

[libvirt-users] dynamic_ownership behavior with volumes
by Hyeonseop Lee 02 Apr '16

02 Apr '16

Hi, I'm having troubles with volume ownership. When I configure domain with disk type='file', dynamic_ownership works fine, the owner of image file changes into libvirt-qemu:kvm. However when I add the image file as a libvirt volume (in default pool) and configure domain with disk type=volume, the owner of image file remains root:root. Actually, libvirt seems to be changing the owner into root:root even after I manually changed it. Is this intended behavior? If so, what is preferred way to set ownership of volume image files, instead of running qemu as root? FYI, I'm using libvirt 1.2.2 on Ubuntu 14.04. Thank you!

[libvirt-users] How is calculate the lock with lockd_manager
by villeneu＠kassis.univ-brest.fr 01 Apr '16

01 Apr '16

Hello I use lock_manager with libvirt 1.3 and I would like to know how is exactly calculate the hash SHA256. I would create a table to retreive the name with the hash in case of crash to release manualy the lock. I do an sha256 hash from /var/lib/libvirt/images/lock/MyVM.img but I don't get the same hash code form virtlockd ? Any Ideas ? Best regards ----- PS: sorry for my previous mail it was in a wrong thread
