'migrate' failed - State blocked by non-migratable device

[matko]

Hi from mother Russia!

Proxmox VE 3.0.

We've had some problem with our cluster configuration. After getting messages that implied wrong ip addresses used we tried to redo the cluster from scratch. This has now resulted in that our livemigration doesn't work because of "non-migratable device".

The node with id 100 reside on an iSCSI volume, layered with LVM and is shared in the cluster.

This error: "May 27 14:54:56 ERROR: online migrate failure - VM 100 qmp command 'migrate' failed - State blocked by non-migratable device '0000:00:07.0/ich9_ahci'" means that you are trying to migrate a VM with an assigned SATA disk. Due to stability reasons the Qemu developers has disabled migration for SATA disks. To be able to migrate you should use IDE or virtio for disk controller.
