    Problems with Windows live-migration using KVM

    Hi, I do have the same problem as giner. I am running a PVE Cluster with two nodes (same hardware). I moved one W2k server from local storage to iSCSI storage, and removed the local disk files. The vm runs fine from iSCSI storage. But doing a live migration, which takes about 15 s, freezes the...

    Best practice configuring storage

    Hi! We have a PVE cluster with two nodes running. Now we want to put the PVE disk images on a SAN (Openfiler based storage server).

    How to migrate live physical Windows PC's

    Hi, yes I successfully migrated a running physical Win2k Server to PVE, as described above. First try, without mergeide.reg, was a failure, but second try with mergeide.reg did the job. And I also did, like Udo said, copy the e1000 installer on the physical machine before migration. Der Nasenmann

    How to migrate live physical Windows PC's

    Hi, thank you for this little howto. In my case, virtualising a windows 2000 server with SCSI RAID, it didn't work that way. As I booted the VM on PVE I got a BSOD telling me that there is an inaccessible boot device. So I did it again but I installed the mergeide.reg on the physical machine...

    After Migration from 1.2 to 1.3 Win XP VMs crashing to BSOD while booting

    You are right! Why should this help? This is no Windows machine which could do strange things in cause of a f*cked up registry or something! I did some hardware checks but did not find any problems and I do not think that there are some with it. I installed a third cluster node on a PC with a...

    After Migration from 1.2 to 1.3 Win XP VMs crashing to BSOD while booting

    Hi, I don't think that the hardware is faulty but I will do some checkups. Then I want to do a clean install of PVE 1.3. Is it ok, if I migrate all VMs to the 1.2 slave node, reinstall the 1.3 master node and put it as the master node back in the cluster? Der Nasenmann

    After Migration from 1.2 to 1.3 Win XP VMs crashing to BSOD while booting

    Hi, I tried to install a fresh XP VM on the 1.3 node, but it hangs while booting from CD-image after the first hardware detection (black screen). Also I followed the advice of BitRausch to force the system HAL. Tried different HALs but no installation was possible. Booting the fresh XP VM on...
