Hi,
when checking the logs I see error:

Disk image %s doesn't exist

Is it possible that network/guest configuration is incorrect after update???

Comment 3 Allie DeVolder 2013-07-15 18:29:03 UTC
I found that message in the xend.log, but it didn't come from any of the system in which they tried to migrate.

The customer reports that in order to reproduce this, you'll need to perform the upgrade while guests are running.

No additional minor releases are planned for Production Phase 2 in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, and therefore Red Hat is closing this bugzilla as it does not meet the inclusion criteria as stated in:
