Hi,
I'm using deadline scheduler, the /var partition is mounted noatime, and the disk is mounted raw:
<disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <source file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/mail02.img'/> <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/>
I meant raw disk devices rather than files e.g. <disk type='block' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none'/> <source dev='/dev/server02_vg1_2tb/lv_vm03_swap'/> <target dev='vdb' bus='virtio'/> </disk>
I made this change by editing the xml, restarting libvirtd, then using virsh to define the xml file and received this message:
virsh # define /etc/libvirt/qemu/bwimail02.xml error: Failed to define domain from /etc/libvirt/qemu/bwimail02.xml error: missing source information for device vda
Have I done something wrong, or am I missing something?
You'll need to show us the xml file. -Robin
