Re: libvirt Hyper-v 2012 r2 fix

Bringing the discussion back online...

Okay so figured out what was going on (to see what the actual error was, please read the latest email in the conversation). Classes in hyperv/hyperv_wmi_generator.input

a) Msvm_MemorySettingData
b) Msvm_ProcessorSettingData
c) Msvm_VirtualSystemSettingData

Have been upgraded to the definitions found at the new v2 doc http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh850176(v=vs.85).aspx

I put in this note at the beginning of the hyperv/hyperv_wmi_generator.input file.

With these changes and a few other minor ones, I can confirm that the functionality mimics the hyperv 2008 version. That is, we get the same functionality (supported vs non-supported drivers). 

However, this might also mean the end of support of Hyper-V 2008 if it is just a replace of the existing classes. What do you guys think? Should we continue to support 2008 (~6 years old) OR is it OK to assume that Hyperv-V 2012 will be the default standard moving forward.

Thanks,
Vik.

Hi Matthias,

Well... from more testing what I found is that openwsman breaks during serialization.

When I run against hyper-v 2012 r2

---------------------------------------------

virsh # list --all

virsh # dumpxml testing-1

-------------------------------------------------

I was also looking at http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-July/msg00768.html and found that you submitted a patch. It looks like from class


class Msvm_VirtualSystemSettingData 

property SystemName

is being returned NULL or is is non existent in the pull response. Any pointers as to how can I check what is being returned in the pull response (if any)?

Thanks!
Vik.

Yes, send a patch for this.

To get your patch in, you need to send it to this list for review.
After a successful review it'll be pushed to the git repo by someone
with commit access.

See http://libvirt.org/hacking.html for more details about working on
the source and submitting patches.
