migration between two AMD boxes is ok now,but still need to close the sasl authentication .  bug 489250

Comment 3 Vivian Bian 2009-03-20 09:40:19 UTC
this bug 490304 is fixed in snap5

Comment 4 Vivian Bian 2009-03-22 10:35:24 UTC
migration now is not a stable function : for currently there are still some kinds of system could not be migrated, they are Fedora10,rhel5u3,win2k3 .

> this bug 490304 is fixed in snap5  

This comment could be ignored for it's really a mistake. Currently I migrated win2k8 guest stably between the two boxed. But still another issue,for the live migration is not a really live one.

Comment 6 Perry Myers 2009-03-31 03:22:07 UTC
Moving to RHEL since libvirt is not supported in RHEV1.0 production builds and this problem will need to be addressed in RHEL5.4 release

Comment 7 Daniel Veillard 2009-07-08 11:41:15 UTC
It's unclear this problem is still present in 5.4 as migration over TCP
should have been tested heavilly at this point, and some bugs in that
area have been fixed. This doesn't seems AMD specific anymore and the
remaining SASL issue has been processed independently  

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=489250

So I think we can close this bug at this point, the original issues have
both been fixed, and if there were still something remaining it would be
better to open a new bug with an adequate title for 5.5,

Daniel
