RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 3 Jincheng Miao 2014-12-03 10:50:54 UTC 
# rpm -q libvirt
libvirt-1.2.8-9.el7.x86_64

1. configure guest with 3 vcpus online
# virsh edit r7a
...
  <vcpu placement='auto' current='3'>6</vcpu>
...

# virsh vcpuinfo r7a
VCPU:           0
CPU:            2
State:          running
CPU time:       4.3s
CPU Affinity:   yyyyyyyy

VCPU:           1
CPU:            2
State:          running
CPU Affinity:   yyyyyyyy

VCPU:           2
CPU:            3
State:          running
CPU Affinity:   yyyyyyyy


2. online one more vcpu
# virsh setvcpus r7a 4

# virsh vcpuinfo r7a
VCPU:           0
CPU:            1
State:          running
CPU time:       7.9s
CPU Affinity:   yyyyyyyy

VCPU:           1
CPU:            1
State:          running
CPU time:       1.0s
CPU Affinity:   yyyyyyyy

VCPU:           2
CPU:            0
State:          running
CPU time:       0.9s
CPU Affinity:   yyyyyyyy

VCPU:           3
CPU:            6
State:          running
CPU Affinity:   yyyyyyyy


3. restart libvirtd then check vcpuinfo
# systemctl restart libvirtd

# virsh vcpuinfo r7a
VCPU:           0
CPU:            2
State:          running
CPU time:       8.6s
CPU Affinity:   yyyyyyyy

VCPU:           1
CPU:            1
State:          running
CPU time:       1.7s
CPU Affinity:   yyyyyyyy

VCPU:           2
CPU:            0
State:          running
CPU time:       1.5s
CPU Affinity:   yyyyyyyy

VCPU:           3
CPU:            6
State:          running
CPU Affinity:   yyyyyyyy

As we could see, vcpuinfo is same with libvirt restarted before.
So change the status to VERIFIED.
