For +QEMU/KVM this requires hard_limit memory tuning element (in the domain XML) to +be used and set to the maximum memory configured for the domain plus any memory +consumed by the QEMU process itself. Beware of setting the memory limit too +high (and thus allowing the domain to lock most of the host's memory). Doing so +may be dangerous to both the domain and the host itself since the host's kernel +may run out of memory. B<Note>: Individual hypervisors usually do not support all possible types of migration. For example, QEMU does not support direct migration. -- 2.14.1 -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
