Re: [libvirt-users] All VMs permanently 'paused'

I set up Alpine Linux as a libvirt-based KVM hypervisor last week.
Everything was working beautifully on Friday. I left two Windows VMs up
and running and two 'Saved' on Friday afternoon. When I go in this
morning the two running ones were 'Paused' and I can't unpause them with
virt-manager or with virsh. The other two saved ones I can start, but
they are immediately paused too. When I click to unpause in virt-
manager nothing happens. When I 'resume' in virsh I get 'Domain ...
resumed' but it's immediately paused again. I looked in
/var/log/libvirt/libvirtd.log and qemu/<DOMAIN>.log and there doesn't
seem to be anything happening. No errors or anything.
As I say. Everything was working fine on Friday afternoon.
Does anyone know what I should try next? I'll attach my logs and the XML
of one of my machines.
I don't know what happened but I'm pretty sure you can recover
the domains removing the file stored by the pause command:
# virsh managedsave-remove domainname
# virs start domainname
As for the underlying problem , it happened to me once and I thought
it was caused by a full partition. Notice the saved state files won't
go to the storage pool directory. In my system those files are kept on:
/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/save/
Hope this helped a little bit.
