Hi,Dor it's seems that kvm-floppy-save-and-restore-DIR-register.patch applied in kvm-83-237.el5 result in this regression,if developer need to fix this in rhel5.6.z,please raise rhel‑5.6.z falg do migrate for windows7 guest from rhel5.7 host to rhel5.6.z host, guest will crash. steps to reproduce: 1. src (rhel5.6.z) /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M rhel5.6.0 -rtc-td-hack -startdate now -name win7 -smp 4 -m 4G -uuid `uuidgen` -boot c -drive file=/dev/vg0/data4,media=disk,if=ide,cache=none,boot=on,format=qcow2,werror=stop -net nic,vlan=1,macaddr=52:87:78:D4:b3:9f,model=rtl8139 -net tap,vlan=1,script=/etc/qemu-ifup -notify all -balloon none -monitor stdio -spice disable-ticketing,port=5911 -qxl 1 2.des (rhel5.7) /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M rhel5.6.0 -rtc-td-hack -startdate now -name win7 -smp 4 -m 4G -uuid `uuidgen` -boot c -drive file=/dev/vg0/data4,media=disk,if=ide,cache=none,boot=on,format=qcow2,werror=stop -net nic,vlan=1,macaddr=52:87:78:D4:b3:9f,model=rtl8139 -net tap,vlan=1,script=/etc/qemu-ifup -notify all -balloon none -monitor stdio -spice disable-ticketing,port=5911 -qxl 1 -incoming tcp:0:5555 3. do migrate from src to des 4. do migrate from des to src monitor will show below fail message Unknown savevm section or instance 'fdc/media_changed' 0 load of migration failed 5. check guest We probably need to add a -M rhel5.7 for the fix. (In reply to comment #2) > do migrate for windows7 guest from rhel5.7 host to rhel5.6.z host, guest will > crash. ^^^^^ [snip] > 4. do migrate from des to src > monitor will show below fail message > Unknown savevm section or instance 'fdc/media_changed' 0 > load of migration failed > > 5. check guest Did the guest actually crash or did the migration fail and the guest continued running on "des"? sorry, my description is not accurate, guest is not crash, it will be in a stopped state. Patch(es) included on kvm-83-238.el5 Reproduced this issue on kvm-83-237.el5 Verified it on kvm-83-238.el5 with the steps of comment #0. Actual Results: migration could finish successfully.After migration complete, guest could be used on dst host. Based on above ,this issue has been fixed ald. Move status to VERIFIED. Technical note added. If any revisions are required, please edit the "Technical Notes" field accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content Services team.
