Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.

Description Ivars Strazdins 2011-02-24 14:13:14 UTC
Description of problem:

Cannot migrate virtual machines.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

[root@rhel6-1 ~]# rpm -qa | grep -E "virt|kvm"
qemu-kvm-tools-0.12.1.2-2.113.el6_0.6.x86_64
fence-virt-0.2.1-5.el6.x86_64
virt-manager-0.8.4-8.el6.noarch
python-virtinst-0.500.3-7.el6.noarch
libvirt-0.8.1-27.el6.x86_64
libvirt-client-0.8.1-27.el6.x86_64
virt-viewer-0.2.1-2.el6.x86_64
virt-top-1.0.4-3.1.el6.x86_64
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.113.el6_0.6.x86_64
libvirt-python-0.8.1-27.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:

Always.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create virtual machine, Linux
2. Connect to another host with virt-manager
2. Try to migrate to another host.
  
Actual results:


Unable to migrate guest:
 Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/migrate.py", line 457, in _async_migrate
    vm.migrate(dstconn, migrate_uri, rate, live, secure)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 1387, in migrate
    self._backend.migrate(destconn.vmm, flags, newname, interface, rate)
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 511, in migrate
    if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virDomainMigrate() failed', dom=self)
libvirtError: operation failed: Migration unexpectedly failed


Expected results:

No errors, be able to migrate.

Additional info:

Both systems were really identical, the same machine model, same bios revision, same software. CPU type  AMD Turion(tm) 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-50
Found bug  654593 (Fedora 14) with exactly the same messages.

Comment 2 Ivars Strazdins 2011-02-24 14:18:55 UTC
Completely forgot to mention that shared storage is NFS.

Comment 4 Ivars Strazdins 2011-02-24 20:20:15 UTC
After disabling firewall, problem disappeared.

Comment 5 Osier Yang 2011-03-16 07:24:46 UTC
see bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=615941, and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=670727, the problem for this bug
is to say libvirt can't give a clear error message, so I duplicate it with 615941
