After some mistakes yesterday we ( me and my colleague ) think that it
will be wise for libvirt to check config file existence on remote side
Which config file?
VM config file, namely qemu.
Do you mean the domain XML definition found in /etc/libvirt/qemu/*.xml ?
Yes and no, xml, but at another location.
We forgot to mount shared storage (namely gluster volume), on which we
have config files, twice...
If you're talking about the domain XML file, then you should never store
them on a shared storage. All XML files in /etc/libvirt are supposed to
be local to each host.
They are not stored in /etc/libvirt , but in other location, which is
suitable for sharing.
I'm even more confused now. How could libvirt even know about such
files? Unless you use transient domains, i.e., point libvirt to the
right XML when starting the domain.
Yes, it transient, really, we use pacemaker's VirtualDomain
http://www.linux-ha.org/wiki/VirtualDomain_(resource_agent)
pacemaker creates domain and destroys it.
As I can see from sources migration looks like:
virsh ${VIRSH_OPTIONS} migrate --live $migrate_opts $DOMAIN_NAME
$remoteuri $migrateuri &
Don't know which exact options it uses though.
Do we need xml on another host if domain is transient for live migration?
No, the XML is only needed when starting the domain. At the beginning of
migration libvirt transfers the XML to libvirtd on the other host so
that QEMU with the right parameters can be started there.
Well, then it is really strange...
Just to make sure, the disk images used by the domain are stored on a
shared storage accessible from both hosts, right?
Yes, we use gluster and connection over gfapi, so VM storage is
accessible from all hosts.
Usually, when xml are available, migration works without problems.
Just thought - it is possible that problem is in pacemaker's
VirtualDomain and it needs xml on all hosts,
there is such comment :
# During a probe, it is permissible for the config file to not be
# readable (it might be on shared storage not available during the
# probe). In that case, we're
# unable to get the domain name. Thus, we also can't check whether the
# domain is running. The only thing we can do here is to assume that
# it is not running.
We have to check, but looks like we have to ask in pacemaker mail list,
it has to check if xml is available.
Thank you!
