Re: race condition? virsh migrate --copy-storage-all

Hi list, I'm trying to migrate a few qemu virtual machines between two 1G ethernet connected hosts, with local storage only. I got endless "error: operation failed: migration of disk vda failed: Input/output error" errors and thought: something wrong with settings. However, then, suddenly: I succeeded without changing anything. And, hey: while ! time virsh migrate --live --persistent --undefinesource --copy-storage-all ubuntu20.04 qemu+ssh://duikboot/system; do a=$(( $a + 1 )); echo $a; done ... retried 8 times, but then: success. This smells like a race condition, doesn't it? A bit weird is the fact that the migration seems to succeed every time while copying from revolving disks to SSD; but the other way around has this Input/output error. There are some messages in /var/log/syslog, but not at the time of the failure, and no disk errors. These disks are LVM2 volumes and they live on raid arrays - and/so there is not a real, as in physical, I/O-error. Source system has SSD's, target system has regular disks. 1) is this the right mailing list? I'm not 100% sure. 2) how can I research this further? Spending hours on a "while / then" loop to try and retry live migration looks like a dull job for my poor computers ;-)
