Hi guys.
Without explicitly, manually using watchdog device for a VM, the VM (centOS 8 Stream 4.18.0-365.el8.x86_64) shows '/dev/watchdog' exists. To double check - 'dumpxml' does not show any such device - what kind of a 'watchdog' that is? The kernel can always provide a pure software watchdog IIRC. It can be useful if a userspace app wants a watchdog. The limitation is that it relies on the kernel remaining functional, as there's no hardware backing it up.
Regards, Daniel many thanks Daniel Is qemu's watchdog configurable just like on bare-metal? Perhaps same very way - via/in BIOS? L.
