[libvirt-users] VMs XML difinitions can't be recognized after upgrading to libvirt 0.9.13
I used to run many VMs on my Ubuntu 10.04 box. However, after upgrading to Ubuntu 12.10 (and thus, libvirt 0.9.13), The VMs can't be recognized anymore. Nothing appears in the output of 'virsh list --all', nor in virt-manager. When I created a new VM based on a disk image of one of the not-recognized-any-more VMs, a new schema file has been auto-generated, and the new VM now is recognized. So, if this is caused by incompatibility with the old schemas, would the solution be to manually recreate all the VMs by importing their disk images to the newly created VMs, or is there a more intelligent approach? Thanks for your time. Marwan

capabilities detection for qemu/kvm bits likely failed. Do you have kvm and kvm_amd or kvm_intel loaded? Best place to start is checking /var/log/libvirt/libvirtd.log -- Doug Goldstein

Yes, I have the kvm modules loaded and working, but only with new VMs, like I said above. Here's what I've found in the logs: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2013-02-24 04:55:01.818+0000: 14242: info : libvirt version: 0.9.13 2013-02-24 04:55:01.818+0000: 14242: error : virDomainDefParseXML:8817 : unsupported configuration: Only the first console can be a serial port 2013-02-24 04:55:01.857+0000: 14242: error : virDomainDefParseXML:8817 : unsupported configuration: Only the first console can be a serial port 2013-02-24 04:55:01.857+0000: 14242: error : virDomainDefParseXML:8817 : unsupported configuration: Only the first console can be a serial port 2013-02-24 04:55:01.858+0000: 14242: error : virDomainDefParseXML:8817 : unsupported configuration: Only the first console can be a serial port 2013-02-24 04:55:01.858+0000: 14242: error : virDomainDefParseXML:8817 : unsupported configuration: Only the first console can be a serial port 2013-02-24 04:55:01.859+0000: 14242: error : virDomainDefParseXML:8817 : unsupported configuration: Only the first console can be a serial port 2013-02-24 04:55:01.859+0000: 14242: error : virDomainDefParseXML:8817 : unsupported configuration: Only the first console can be a serial port 2013-02-24 04:55:11.398+0000: 14232: error : interfaceNumOfInterfaces:195 : internal error failed to get number of interfaces on host: unspecified error - errors in loading some config files 2013-02-24 04:55:11.432+0000: 14233: error : interfaceNumOfInterfaces:195 : internal error failed to get number of interfaces on host: unspecified error - errors in loading some config files 2013-02-24 04:55:11.467+0000: 14237: error : interfaceNumOfDefinedInterfaces:237 : internal error failed to get number of defined interfaces on host: unspecified error - errors in loading some config files ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I also noticed that the last two error messages are filling the entire log file. Any suggestions? Marwan
