Hi all, Hi have one computer hosting several VM, this particular server is in need of maintenance and has to be shutdown. In order to avoid disrupting the services provided by the VM I intended to migrate the VM to another computer. Computer 1 and 2 do not share any storage. So it is necessary to migrate not only the memory but also any data on the hard-drive. Both computers are running debian squeeze. Virsh is version 0.8.3. I issue this command on server one: sudo LIBVIRT_DEBUG=1 virsh migrate --live --copy-storage-all i00cn1011 qemu+ssh://user@computer2/session > debug.log 2>&1 On virt-manager on computer 1, the VM appears for a few moments as paused, and then disappears. On computer 1 I receive the error: Timed out during operation: cannot acquire state change lock Does anyone know what the problem may be and how to solve it? Next I send all the data returned by virsh. Thanks everyone. user@computer1:~$ cat debug.log 13:52:07.911: debug : virInitialize:339 : register drivers 13:52:07.911: debug : virRegisterDriver:927 : registering Test as driver 0 13:52:07.911:
