On a related note, some weeks ago, I captured some context and analysis (including some debugging done by Dan Berrange and Eric Blake on public IRC channel mid-last year) for the above bug, since the actual bug has too many comments: https://kashyapc.fedorapeople.org/virt/openstack/nova-live-snapshot-bug-1334398-context-and-analysis.txt The cause of it is almost narrowed down here by Dan in this comment https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1334398/comments/27 -- /kashyap -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
