Greetings,
This is my first stab at this mailing list. Forgive me if I am over/under
verbose.
We have been running KVM for a while now and love it. Recently I have
noticed a weird anomaly
that is getting on my nerves. When I clone (GUI or virt-clone from CLI)
both* virt-manager* and *virsh*
enquiries get extremely sluggish. Using top I cannot see any resource
issues. No I/O wait, the load
average show noting outside of the normal, nothing taking CPU or Memory. I
have notice that in a
couple of the instances the libvirtd daemon was stopped. We have more
than twenty (20 +) VM's
running - they all seem fine. The metal server is a beast of an 820 with
192GB of RAM and 64 CPU's.
The load average rarely creeps above 2 or 3. Do not think it is a resource
issue. I can write a test
file to the filesystem/volume where the images live at over 350MB/s.
The sluggishness disappears after a reboot. If I clone a VM ... back again
...
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Tom Ainsworth
