Troubles with Proxmox QEMU Monitor

[alexpacio]

Hi,
I installed proxmox 1.6 and i'm trying to decrypt my qcow2 image by tha Qemu monitor integrated in Proxmox Web Interface but i get an error:

monitor read timeout

If i try to do this in the secure shell (SSH), starting the vm through "kvm" command with "-monitor stdio" option, it works flawlessly.

I also noticed that most of the available commands in QEMU Monitor returns with this error.

Here's the error in the logs:

qm2607 VM 101 monitor command failed - monitor read timeout
Is it maybe a bug? How can i solve it?

Thanks

We currently use the monitor for short running command only - the timeout is to protect from failures. What monitor command exactly fail?

 

[alexpacio]

the command failing is: "cont"

That works without any problems here. What is the output of

# pveversion -v
