[libvirt-users] libvirt restarting vms on restart?
by Tom Hughes 19 Jan '10

Recent versions of libvirt seem to have taken to starting new copies of my vms when they restart. Any vm marked to start when libvirt is started is started, even if it is already running, which leads to multiple running vms trying to use the same disk image. I think this probably started with the upgrade from 0.7.4 to 0.7.5 but I can't be entirely sure as I only realised yesterday that I had somehow managed to get multiple instances of a VM running. It definitely happened this morning when the updated from 0.7.5.-1 to 0.7.5-3 in the F12 virt-preview repo caused a restart. Tom -- Tom Hughes (tom(a)compton.nu) http://www.compton.nu/

Daniel: This discussion used to be on the libvirt list, but seems more appropriate for the users list so I am replying here. > At some time in the past we did set the MAC address on the > host interface > too, but it caused networking problems in some configurations I see. Thanks for the background info. > I guess you have Cacti configured to pull stats directly from the TAP > devices on the host ? I am using bridging, but you are correct. I installed snmpd and have Cacti pulling stats from it. > Cacti has the ability to run scripts to pull > in statistics, so my recommendation would be to add a shell script which > calls the 'domifstat' command in virsh > virsh domifstat DOMNAME TAPDEVNAME The Cacti server is running in a separate machine, not on the host. I guess I will have to find something that makes the domifstat data available via an snmp interface. Do you know of such a tool?
