Hi, i have a two-node cluster with several domains as resources. During testing i tried several times to migrate some domains concurrently. Usually it suceeded, but rarely it failed. I found one clue in the log: Dec 03 16:03:02 ha-idg-1 libvirtd[3252]: 2018-12-03 15:03:02.758+0000: 3252: error : virKeepAliveTimerInternal:143 : internal error: connection closed due to keepalive timeout The domains are configured similar: primitive vm_geneious VirtualDomain \ params config="/mnt/san/share/config.xml" \ params hypervisor="qemu:///system" \ params migration_transport=ssh \ op start interval=0 timeout=120 trace_ra=1 \ op stop interval=0 timeout=130 trace_ra=1 \ op monitor interval=30 timeout=25 trace_ra=1 \ op migrate_from interval=0 timeout=300 trace_ra=1 \ op migrate_to interval=0 timeout=300 trace_ra=1 \ meta allow-migrate=true target-role=Started is-managed=true \ utilization cpu=2 hv_memory=8000 What is the algorithm to discover the port used for live migration ? I have the impression that "params migration_transport=ssh" is worthless, port 22 isn't involved for live migration. My experience is that for the migration tcp ports > 49151 are used. But the exact procedure isn't clear for me. Does live migration uses first tcp port 49152 and for each following domain one port higher ? E.g. for the concurrent live migration of three domains 49152, 49153 and 49154. Why does live migration for three domains usually succeed, although on both hosts just 49152 and 49153 is open ? Is the migration not really concurrent, but sometimes sequential ? BerndHi, i tried to narrow down the problem. My first assumption was that something with the network between the hosts is not ok. I opened port 49152 - 49172 in the firewall - problem persisted. So i deactivated the firewall on both nodes - problem persisted. Then i wanted to exclude the HA-Cluster software (pacemaker). I unmanaged the VirtualDomains in pacemaker and migrated them with virsh - problem persists. I wrote a script to migrate three domains sequentially from host A to host B and vice versa via virsh. I raised up the loglevel from libvirtd and found s.th. in the log which may be the culprit: This is the output of my script: Thu Dec 6 17:02:53 CET 2018 migrate sim Migration: [100 %] Thu Dec 6 17:03:07 CET 2018 migrate geneious Migration: [100 %] Thu Dec 6 17:03:16 CET 2018 migrate mausdb Migration: [ 99 %]error: operation failed: migration job: unexpectedly failed <===== error !

From googleing i found that this may be related to libvirtd.conf: # Keepalive settings for the admin interface #admin_keepalive_interval = 5 #admin_keepalive_count = 5 What is meant by the "admin interface" ? virsh ?
virsh-admin, which you can use to change some admin settings of libvirtd, e.g. log_level. You are interested in the keepalive settings above those ones in libvirtd.conf, specifically
#keepalive_interval = 5 #keepalive_count = 5
What is meant by "client" in libvirtd.conf ? virsh ?
Yes, virsh is a client, as is virt-manager or any application connecting to libvirtd.
Why do i have regular timeouts although my two hosts are very performant ? 128GB RAM, 16 cores, 2 1GBit/s network adapter on each host in bonding. During migration i don't see much load, although nearly no waiting for IO.
I'd think concurrently migrating 3 VMs on a 1G network might cause some congestion :-).
Should i set admin_keepalive_interval to -1 ?
You should try 'keepalive_interval = -1'. You can also avoid sending keepalive messages from virsh with the '-k' option, e.g. 'virsh -k 0 migrate ...'.
If this doesn't help, are you in a position to test a newer libvirt, preferably master or the recent 4.10.0 release?
