kvm libvirt migration problem

[潘昊 <panhcn@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone:

I am new here

I am using kvm and libvirt on my Dell server. Now i am trying to migrate one virtual machine from a physical server to another. However, I failed everytime.

In virsh on physicalServer1, I typed:

virsh # migrate virtualmachine1 qemu+ssh://username@physicalServer2/system
error: operation failed: migration to 'tcp: physicalServer2:49163' failed: migration failed

Then I searched FAQ part on libvirt.org http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/FAQ
it says:

error: operation failed: migration to '...' failed: migration failed

This is an error often encountered when trying to migrate with QEMU/KVM. This typically happens with plain migration, when the source VM cannot connect to the destination host. You will want to make sure your hosts are properly configured for migration (see the migration section of this FAQ)

I managed to ssh physicalServer2 in virtualmachine1 shell. So the above red part did not explain my failure.

I also open ports on physicalServer2, iptables -L shows following information:

The /var/log/libvirt/qemu/virtualmachine1.log on physicalServer2:

2011-05-06 13:37:30.915: shutting down

The /var/log/libvirt/qemu/virtualmachine1.log on physicalServer1 is empty.

Both physical servers are using Ubuntu 11.04. The libvirt and kvm used are installed by apt-get. The libvirt version is 0.8.8.

Is there anyone can help me? Thanks for help!
