Does retrying migrate, one VM at a time, works?

Comment 16 Michal Skrivanek 2015-07-24 14:10:00 UTC
if there is a network throughput problem that would imply deployment problems.
Can you measure the capacity of the line between hosts?
Also, separating migration network from management network may help to isolate/shape traffic accordingly

Is concurrent migration needeD? If there is not enough capacity it owuld be best to configure max_outgoing_migrations to 1 in vdsm.conf on these hypervisors

->Hi,

Thank you for your support.

Well, our customer uses gigabit network then he thinks that there is no any network traffic problem.

And could you inform how to check capacity of line between hosts ?

   -> Please inform its detailed setting for request this thing to the customer.

Thank you and regards.

as you say in previous comments, hosts is overloaded when migration starts (even becomes nonresponsive). So the link between those 2 servers is over-utilized and it affects the management communication. Since single VM migration works I would suggest to limit the number of concurrent migrations and/or change bandwidth of each migration

in the meantime I'm going to move the issue to general migration enhancements planned for 4.0
