Created attachment 385934 [details] Fix domain migration on some machines I created a patch for this one. As written in comment #0 for migration/save we need to pause the guest first and that's why a better save paused domain patch had to be created to fix it. The patch attached basically disables save and shutdown of a paused domain but allows migrations (i.e. allows shutdown after domain suspend issued before migration) of guests on problematic systems as well. Michal Paused state is probably caused by not-up-to-date xend cache. Created attachment 389487 [details]
Refresh xend domain cache before migration/save patch
As false alarm is cause by not up-to-date state of xend cache, we refresh it before migration/save.
I can reproduce this bug in my own two system with the xen-3.0.3-104.el5 package 100%, I try 10 times and each time, the error message of "Can't shutdown/save the domain since the domain is paused;unpause it first if you want to shutdown/save" will pop up. And with the newest package of xen-3.0.3-105.el5, I also try with 10 times, no more error message will pop up. Here is my steps: (1) start both host A and host B using shared storage (2) Boot the guest in host A wait till guest is on, before migrate the guest, do not use any other command, that is without any other access to xend (3) Migrate the guest from host A to host B I can reproduce this problem and also with newest package, the problem is no more exist. Communicate with Miroslav Rezanina (mrezanin) in irc, although I do not test this bug in xen-live1.usersys.redhat.com and xen-live2.usersys.redhat.com (currently the xen-live1.usersys.redhat.com is down),but he think I can set this bug to verified based on my test result and no more need to test in xen-live system. So this bug is verified in xen-3.0.3-105.el5. An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on therefore solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2010-0294.html This bug was closed during 5.5 development and it's being removed from the internal tracking bugs (which are now for 5.6). |
