Category: qemu Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Lance Albertson (ramereth) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: qemu-kvm fails to migrate properly in 0.12.2 Initial Comment: I'm using Ganeti and encountered a problem [1] with migrating KVM virtual machines. I have confirmed that this is not a problem specific to Ganeti and is also happening to the Libvirt project [2]. When migrating from host A to host B, everything goes fine however the guest VM (running CentOS 5.4) clock changes to approximately 600 seconds in the future. When attempting to migrate back to host B, the VM locks up and stops responding. However, if you fix the clock prior to syncing back to host A, the migration happens however the clock on the VM literally stops so the guest is pretty unusable. I tried the same scenario using Ubuntu 9.10 for the guest OS and has different issues. Upon migrating to host B, the clock on the guest VM was ahead by over 3 days into the future. Then when I migrate it back to host A the VM locks up hard. I can confirm I have no problem using migration when using 0.11.1. Here's the detail information about our setup: Hardware: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU 5160 @ 3.00GHz qemu-kvm: 0.12.2 kernel: 2.6.29-hardened Linux OS: Gentoo Hardened If you need more information, please let me know and I'll be happy to provide it.

No one has really come up with a fix. Can you try without kvmclock? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=893831&aid=2948108&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
