    vzctl --devnodes command overwriting previous command

    Im getting odder behaviour - garbage (hi bit chars) in the conf file and its eating chars from previous lines... # cp 105.conf /root # vzctl set 105 --devnodes dahdi/pseudo:rw --save # diff /root/105.conf /etc/pve/openvz/105.conf 40a41,42 > ost_mac= > A3DEVNODES="dahdi/pseudo:rw " what's...

    VM's on proxmox won't shutdown?

    aha. if it hasnt gotten out of boot yet, its not really started, so shutdown doesnt apply. 'stop' does in fact work, when its still in bios, apologies!

    VM's on proxmox won't shutdown?

    only convenient to have on the GUI because some of us want to delegate sub-access to customers to control their own micro-cloud (quote unquote) of images, etc, without giving root away...

    VM's on proxmox won't shutdown?

    yes of course. pressing it a 2nd time gave a log entry for it - curiously the 2nd attempt had the fail msg come up first while the first attempt was still spinning. eventually they both went to 'fail' (though the first one might have only failed once I killed it from the cmd line actually..)...

    VM's on proxmox won't shutdown?

    how can this be extended to subusers of the VM in the web interface who are given group control over a collection of VMs? this would be fine if hardware could be removed after it gets stuck in BIOS, but it seems to not be possible, even after CTRL-ALT-DEL (hmm, maybe more hardware can be added...

    VM's on proxmox won't shutdown?

    And how do you shutdown a VM that's stuck waiting for a TFTPboot/failed boot? doesnt the virt bios accept ACPI signals? TASK ERROR: VM quit/powerdown failed - got timeout

    OpenVZ Ploop support

    aha. I suppose the ultimate issue is rsync cant copy deleted files, even if we can get at the content via /proc/*/fd - no way to drop it in the right place in the filesystem for the migrated container to find without some kinda hacky support in the OpenVZ kernel. Actually Im quite suprised that...

    OpenVZ Ploop support

    few comments down in that thread I posted on the bug: https://bugzilla.openvz.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2242#c33 more specifically: https://bugzilla.openvz.org/attachment.cgi?id=1886&action=diff

    OpenVZ Ploop support

    maria has even more links to deleted files in /tmp for some reason (not that it matters, any more than zero is an issue). it's still better than mysql :) however, im not always aware and can't vette every piece of software my customers will run, so migratability could be an issue without this...

    OpenVZ Ploop support

    in an ideal world of cooperative under-one-person/design's control yes, that'd be great, but I support multiple different customers with various versions of mysql and debian etc etc. It's a big mixed bag. Any proper virtualization/containerization environment can support these disparate servers...

    container live migration failure w/mysqld

    some technical elements brought here from http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/11983-OpenVZ-Ploop-support bug is caused by mysql keeping FH's open on unlinked files: https://bugzilla.openvz.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2242 a patch is out for that. However, I suspect think this will not work with rsync...

    OpenVZ Ploop support

    I dont think that would work - cant just suspend mysql, you need to completely shut it down. The reason is because this is the actual bug: https://bugzilla.openvz.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2242#c26 summary: mysql keeps filehandles open on unlinked (deleted) files. [facepalm] There's a patch to the...

    OpenVZ Ploop support

    Right now im under the belief that use of ploop for containers would solve the mysql migration issue by providing an actual filesystem image where inodes map to the same files on any host once live-migrated (vs living on the very different filesystems of the hosts). If im wrong, then we can...

    container live migration failure w/mysqld

    Where we at with this? Seems no replies in a couple months and this is a major blocking issue. Put simply "cannot migrate typical LAMP server" which is 80% of my installs (and probably the world), and never mind if mysql is actually writing at the time or recently, it just has to be running to...

    OpenVZ Ploop support

    Central storage: meant NFS or the like. Complexifies things needlessly in my environment. Backup speed isnt a big deal to me right now (backing up with rsync to an old recycled target with --link-dest is pretty fast, even across 10M files (Im using linux-vserver right now) -but isnt quite a...

    OpenVZ Ploop support

    Im interested in ploop because of the journaling IO loads affecting other containers, as well as the snapshotting abilities. Not to mention the live migration iterative loop which uses FAM/inotify style logging (like constant data replicator) to track what was modified during the initial copy...
