Description RHEL Program Management 2010-01-05 12:23:21 UTC

5.5.4 is 5.4.4 I would guess.
Fix is needed for 5.4.4, not sure if that impacts RHEV-2.1.
Comment 13 Juan Quintela 2010-01-25 16:35:23 UTC 
    What are you using for testing?

    Case 8 works for me (5.5.0 -> 5.5.0) both started with -M rhel5.4.4

    Packages installed are:

    [root@ninfa ~]# rpm -qa kvm kmod-kvm
    kmod-kvm-83-147.el5
    kvm-83-147.el5
    [root@ninfa ~]# uname -a
    Linux ninfa.mitica 2.6.18-185.el5 #1 SMP Thu Jan 14 16:44:40 EST 2010 x86_64
    x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

    Installing 5.4.4 to be able to test case 10.

Yes, there will be impact, as a respin of kvm would require a respin of RHEV-2.1 as well to include the latest kvm package.

Hi
Case 8 is 5.5.0->5.4.4 both started with -M rhel5.4.4, "load of migration failed" error won't be reported on qemu monitor. but if you connect to dst's vnc,you can find there is only black screen. ( sorry,Case 8 and Case 10 has different result,I should clarify early )

and 5.5.0->5.5.0 both started with -M rhel5.4.4 also works for us.

Comment 20 Juan Quintela 2010-01-26 13:23:30 UTC 
Noticed that this bugzilla is for 5.4.z.  Problem and patch is fixed in 5.5.  5.4.z has nothing to change to fix this bug.  Should I close this bug?
557327 is a 5.5 bug already.
Comment 21 Eduardo Habkost 2010-01-26 13:41:51 UTC 
This bug may be moved back to ON_QA so it can be tested. But please note that full testing of this depends on fixing the -M 5.4.4 code on RHEL-5.5 (bug 557327).
