[libvirt-users] question about libvirt and suspending guests during live migration

Hi, I hope someone can help me out. I'm running into an issue with libvirt 1.2.12 reporting "operation failed: domain is no longer running" for a migration when qemu thinks it was fine. The steps are: 1) create guest with stress test running in it to dirty memory at a high rate (fast enough that it would not normally complete live-migration) 2) trigger live migration with dom.migrateToURI2() 3) while migration is in progress, call dom.suspend() on the migrating domain. What I see at this point is the following: a) At time 50.465 the monitoring code sees a VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_SUSPENDED event, as expected. b) An instrumented qemu logs the following: 51.143: done transferring state 51.143: done migration 51.144: qmp_query_migrate reporting state completed c) At time 51.468 the monitoring code sees a VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_RESUMED event, with detail of VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_RESUMED_UNPAUSED c) At time 51.469 the the monitoring code sees a VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_RESUMED event, with detail of VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_RESUMED_MIGRATED e) At time 51.471 the dom.migrateToURI2() call raises an exception (this is python). The corresponding libvirt log file shows: "error : virNetClientProgramDispatchError:177 : operation failed: domain is no longer running" For what it's worth, the problem seems to be fixed in libvirt 1.2.17. In that version and later I don't see the VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_RESUMED event, the migration just completes. I'm looking at the libvirt history, but I figured I'd ask here too... Thanks, Chris
