Re: Regarding Migration Statistics

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Actually my setup is like this:

I have one controller host that do this migration between other two nodes say A and B. Now where should this virDomainGetJobStats method should be invoked from ?
 
If at present VM is migrated from A to B then should B call this method?

It's not clear.

Well, just call virDomainGetJobStats and you will get both total time
and downtime and many more.

Yes, this is the right API to get all the statistics you want. It
returns a list of (key, type, value) entires in params. The keys are
VIR_DOMAIN_JOB_* (see
http://libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt-domain.html#VIR_DOMAIN_JOB_AUTO_CONVERGE_THROTTLE
and a lot of other VIR_DOMAIN_JOB_* macros following this one for
details). You can look at
http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=blob;f=tools/virsh-domain.c;h=93587e8bc7c79cbb66b6ee107472dfec5f320dab;hb=HEAD

In short, just call

    virTypedParamsGetULLong(params, nparams, VIR_DOMAIN_JOB_DOWNTIME,
                            &value)

to fetch downtime from params into value if it was present there (check
return value of the API). The exact API to call is different for each
type, although all migration statistics are unsigned long long so this
one is all you need.

BTW, you can call virDomainGetJobStats anytime while migration is
running to monitor its progress. To check statistics of a completed
migration it's easier to just register a callback for
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_JOB_COMPLETED event. See
http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=blob;f=examples/object-events/event-test.c;h=55c004f93f40de628ae76221bb8ef9a13b2acb3d;hb=HEAD#l940
for an example.
