[pve-devel] Baloon Device is the problem! Re: migration problems since qemu 1.3

[Alexandre DERUMIER]

I see that Dietmar have change recently
vm_mon_cmd($vmid, "migrate_set_downtime", 
value => $migrate_downtime); }; 

to

vm_mon_cmd_nocheck($vmid, "migrate_set_downtime", 
value => $migrate_downtime); }; 

https://git.proxmox.com/?p=qemu-server.git;a=blobdiff;f=PVE/QemuServer.pm;h=165eaf6be6e5fe4b1c88454d28b113bc2b1f20af;hp=81a935176aca16e013fd6987f2ddbc72260092cf;hb=95381ce06cea266d40911a7129da6067a1640cbf;hpb=4bdb05142cfcef09495a45ffb256955f7b947caa


so maybe before, the migrate_set_downtime was not apply (because the vm_mon_cmd check if the vm config file exist on the target).

Do you have any migrate_downtime parameters in your vm config ????
Because it shouldn't be sent if not

        my $migrate_downtime = $defaults->{migrate_downtime};
        $migrate_downtime = $conf->{migrate_downtime} if defined($conf->{migrate_downtime});
        if (defined($migrate_downtime)) {
            eval { vm_mon_cmd_nocheck($vmid, "migrate_set_downtime", value => $migrate_downtime); };
        }

Hi, 

the difference is in sub vm_start in QemuServer.pm. After the kvm 
process is started PVE sends some human monitor commands. 

If i comment this line: 
# eval { vm_mon_cmd_nocheck($vmid, "migrate_set_downtime", 
value => $migrate_downtime); }; 

Everything works fine and everything is OK again. 

I also get this in my logs but i checked $migrate_downtime is 1 so it IS 
a NUMBER: 

Dec 26 13:09:27 cloud1-1202 qm[8726]: VM 105 qmp command failed - VM 105 
qmp command 'migrate_set_downtime' failed - Invalid parameter type for 
'value', expected: number
