Description Dan Kenigsberg 2010-01-13 08:17:18 UTC

Some time in rhev-6.0 we would like to have vdsm fire up VMs via libvirt, and not through qemu directly. To simplify future development, I'd like to add some of the basic support right now, turned off by default. Turning it on depends on having newer (and still unavailable) libvirt.

Comment 1 Dan Kenigsberg 2010-01-13 10:26:36 UTC

this change must not have any effect on vdsm behavior. it will always be off outside my test machines. qa should not worry about it, though as in any change, few bugs might be creeping.

Comment 2 Barak 2010-01-21 15:07:24 UTC

Didn't make it into 2.2 moving it to 3.0

Comment 3 Haim 2010-05-23 12:29:31 UTC

vdsm and libvirt integration effort started already and most of the basic features are working, thus, we have a tracker bug for libvirt and vdsm intergeneration effort - bz 581275 (contains all bugs opened on this project already) .
closing this bug as verified. 

currently we support the following: 

- create command is done using libvirt while we create an xml and fire it up via 
   libvirt. 
- vm life-cycle (start, stop, pause, migrate)
