Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 7 Private: No Submitted By: Technologov (technologov) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: SCSI/VirtIO: VM unable to reboot from non-IDE controller Initial Comment: All Red Hat-based systems (RHEL, Fedora) have failed during automated tests on SCSI disks on KVM. It turned out to be a problem of Qemu/KVM, where after a software reboot (i.e. initiated by guest OS), the system is unable to boot from SCSI controller. To reboot successfully you need either soft reboot+IDE or Hard reboot (Qemu cold boot)+SCSI. The Command sent to Qemu/KVM: /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -m 512 -monitor tcp:localhost:4602,server,nowait -cdrom /isos/linux/Fedora-8-i386-DVD.iso -drive file=/vm/fedora8-32.qcow2,if=scsi,boot=on -name fedora8-32 Host: RHEL 5/x64, KVM-85rc6. (tried both Intel and AMD) Guest: RHEL 5, Fedora 8, Fedora 9 (tried both 32 and 64-bit). -Alexey, 16.4.2009. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Technologov (technologov) Date: 2009-04-16 17:12 Message: This problem also exists for VirtIO block device. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=893831&aid=2768533&group_id=180599 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
