Hello Peter,

i will give that a try.
But why arent the updates written after first shutdown?
on a normal pc the updates are down after one reboot.
i will do some start - shutdowns like u suggested and message you.

hi,

Hi Marko,

i use libvirt 1.0.2 (-r1 , gentoo linux).
when i create a vm with win7 guest, virtio nic, virtio hdd, all is
running fine.
but when i shutdown the windows guest, it takes somestimes 20-34 minutes
!!!
iotop shows me in the whole time writing with 2,xxmb/sec.
is the complete machine "rewritten" to disk?

i use disk.images on a raid6, but hey, dd shows me it can writes there
with 26mb/sec.

any ideas what causes these long shutdown times?

just a quick idea. Wasn't the machine updating? Windows 7 is pulling
in quite a lot updates during the first few boots and spends ages
installing them. This would explain the delays and constant disk
writes.

Please watch the shutdown sequence of the guest to see what it's
doing at that time. After say 10 start-shutdown cycles the machine
should be up to date and shut down quickly.



thanks for any hints,

marko


Peter
