Here is what's neccessary in case someone wanna try this too. qemu-guest.-agent has to run with the option: "-F /etc/qemu/fsfreeze-hook". This file contains as pointed out by Eric: https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/scripts/qemu-guest-agent/fsfreeze-hook Then you need to have a directory called /etc/qemu/fsfreeze-hook.d. Inside this directory this mysql-flush script: https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/scripts/qemu-guest-agent/fsfreeze-hook.d/mysql-flush.sh.sample I had to adjust this script a little for mariadb 10.0.14. But after that everything works as expected. Here the output: Sun 2 Nov 13:46:14 CET 2014: execute /etc/qemu/fsfreeze-hook.d/mysql-flush freeze + MYSQL='mysql -uroot -ppassword' + FIFO=/tmp/mysql-flush.fifo + case "$1" in + mkfifo /tmp/mysql-flush.fifo + flush_and_wait + printf 'FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK \G\n' + mysql -uroot -ppassword + read ++ echo 'SHOW STATUS LIKE "Key_blocks_not_flushed"' ++ mysql -uroot -ppassword ++ tail -1 ++ cut -f 2 + '[' 0 -gt 0 ']' ++ mktemp /tmp/mysql-flush.XXXXXX + INNODB_STATUS=/tmp/mysql-flush.eTdvA4 + '[' 0 -ne 0 ']' + trap 'rm -f /tmp/mysql-flush.eTdvA4' SIGINT + : + printf 'SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS \G' + mysql -uroot -ppassword ++ grep 'Log sequence number' /tmp/mysql-flush.eTdvA4 tr -s ' ' ++ cut '-d ' -f4 + LOG_CURRENT=12242169543 ++ grep 'Log flushed up to' /tmp/mysql-flush.eTdvA4 tr -s ' ' ++ cut '-d ' -f7 + LOG_FLUSHED=12242169543 + '[' 12242169543 = 12242169543 ']' + break + rm -f /tmp/mysql-flush.eTdvA4 Sun 2 Nov 13:46:14 CET 2014: /etc/qemu/fsfreeze-hook.d/mysql-flush finished with status=0 Sun 2 Nov 13:46:14 CET 2014: execute /etc/qemu/fsfreeze-hook.d/mysql-flush thaw + MYSQL='mysql -uroot -ppassword' + FIFO=/tmp/mysql-flush.fifo + case "$1" in + '[' '!' -p /tmp/mysql-flush.fifo ']' + echo + rm -f /tmp/mysql-flush.fifo + printf 'UNLOCK TABLES \G\n' Sun 2 Nov 13:46:14 CET 2014: /etc/qemu/fsfreeze-hook.d/mysql-flush finished with status=0 Just to be sure i activated the general.log for mysql: 141102 13:46:14 6 Connect root@localhost as anonymous on 6 Query select @@version_comment limit 1 6 Query FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK 7 Connect root@localhost as anonymous on 7 Query select @@version_comment limit 1 7 Query SHOW STATUS LIKE "Key_blocks_not_flushed" 7 Quit 8 Connect root@localhost as anonymous on 8 Query select @@version_comment limit 1 8 Query SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS 8 Quit 6 Query UNLOCK TABLES 6 Quit Nice! cheers t. _______________________________________________ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users
