Hmm, or it does break as well? I have to do some more tests.

I see these problems (IO errors) as well with guests having 2 GB RAM. Works fine for smaller guests. Which brings us to a question: why is savevm/loadvm used for migration? Live migration is way better/faster (almost no guest downtime). It also doesn't break big guests like above (at least...

I see the virtual machine is still running, but Proxmox VE interface doesn't show it. Perhaps a side effect of my tests with guest migration with iSCSI storage.

I'm trying to start yet another guest, but it fails with: "unable to create fairsched node - still in use" What does it mean?

I'm running kvm-84 for a little bit over a week now. It runs stable for me with 9 Linux guests with: - different kernels - virtio drivers - scsi + e1000 - IO/CPU loaded to a different degree It fixes one severe issue I had with kvm-83: after running for a couple of days, network in my some of...

It's not necessary to convert it to qemu image file to be able to access it. Although it might save some space - leave the original untouched, make copies converted to qcow2.

Ugh, I'm stupid. I compiled kvm-84 but some VNC patches from Proxmox VE didn't apply cleanly. And even when applied manually, the thing didn't compile. As I though "VNC patches - why bother?" - I compiled kvm-84 without your VNC patches. Sorry for wasting your time. So, it's the 4th day I...

I wonder why it doesn't work for me. I see some "AltGr VNC" hits in google, but I found no definite solution which could be applied here.

KVM console.

If I open VNC's Clipboard, I can write signs like @ or |. So it is passed to the Java viewer correctly, but somehow doesn't get through to the guest. Hmm.

- I have German keyboard layout in options on host - guest OSes - different Linux (i.e. Debian Lenny) - guest OSes have German keyboard I tried loading different German keymaps on guests, but it didn't help - right alt (AltGr) is not passed to the guest via VNC console: # loadkeys de #...

Is there a way to make "pipe" (|) sign work in the VNC console? I have a German keyboard; pipe (|) sign shows up in all programs when I press "right alt + <". Unfortunately, only "<" shows up in the VNC console. Similarly, "@" sign. It shows up when I press "right alt+q"; on VNC console...

These are the "real" locations of LVM volumes.

Do you have a separate /boot partition? lilo and grub can't boot a system from raid-5. Did you generate a new initramfs for the new kernel (update-initramfs or mkinitrd)?

Certainly, crashes should not happen. Automatic restart if machine crashes? Could be tricky to distinguish between a normal crash and a regular machine "stop/shutdown" (are pidfiles removed when it crashes for you?). If you're unable to debug these crashes, you can always automatically...

Yes, it would be great if per-user VM configuration was possible - i.e.: - root can view/create/stop everything, as now - other users can view and stop only VMs assigned to them and make some, but not all configuration changes (i.e. they should not be able to add/change disks, MAC addresses...

Or, it means that KVM is getting more and more popular, and just more user reports come to the surface ;) Anyway, I'll try to modify and apply your patches to KVM-84 and see if it works stable for me or not.

It may be a good guess. I think SCSI timeout is 2 minutes by default, settable in /sys. To OP: 1) how long does the migration take? 2) could you log in _before_ migration o VNC console, do "dmesg -c". After migration, see what "dmesg" shows again. You may also configure a serial connection if...

Hi, Did you manage to build kvm-84?

"Show advanced options" switch somewhere in the interface would make both worlds happy: it would still hide anything potentially dangerous, but would make more experienced sysadmins happy.
