Hello there,

I have libvirt/kvm installed on a HP DL380 server and it seems to be cloning a template image very slowly, in fact a 50GB image just doesn’t gets stuck after 7%. Is there a reason why this might be happening? I’ve tried the same setup on a desktop and never had this issue. The command and setup is listed below:

virt-clone –o template.img –n new-clone –f …/new-clone.img

System

- 12 cores, 32 GB of memory

- Running CentOS 7

- XFS file system using LVM

- Libvirt 1.2.17

Thanks,

Philip
