I have a Win 2008 R2 guest running under KVM controlled by libvirt. The guest is loosing time. I have the clock open on the guest and the seconds change once every 2-5 seconds. The guest was started at 11:45:58. As of 13:10:30 the guest's time is 12:03:46.
I have tried various things that I found on google. Unfortunately, the sites I found do not work for me. I've tried setting the machine type to pc-0.13 (default pc-1.1), -no-hpet, -no-kvm-pit-reinjection, -rtc clock=host, -rtc driftfix=slew, different CPU options and combinations of those. Here is the KVM line that libvirt used: LC_ALL=C PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin HOME=/ QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none /usr/bin/kvm -S -M pc-0.13 -cpu core2duo -enable-kvm -m 2048 -smp 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 -name tcc2008 -uuid b8c797af-8b7e-4d54-cf0a-c21eea23f5c7 -nodefconfig -nodefaults -chardev socket,id=charmonitor,path=/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/tcc2008.monitor,server,nowait -mon chardev=charmonitor,id=monitor,mode=control -rtc base=localtime,clock=host -no-hpet -no-kvm-pit-reinjection -no-shutdown -boot order=cdn,menu=on -device piix3-usb-uhci,id=usb,bus=pci.0,addr=0x1.0x2 -drive file=/vm/tcc2008/tcc2008.img,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=qcow2,cache=none -device virtio-blk-pci,scsi=off,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4,drive=drive-virtio-disk0,id=virtio-disk0 -drive if=none,id=drive-ide0-1-0,readonly=on,format=raw,cache=none -device ide-cd,bus=ide.1,unit=0,drive=drive-ide0-1-0,id=ide0-1-0 -netdev tap,fd=24,id=hostnet0,vhost=on,vhostfd=25 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0,id=net0,mac=52:54:00:f4:f2:ec,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3 -chardev pty,id=charserial0 -device isa-serial,chardev=charserial0,id=serial0 -device usb-tablet,id=input0 -vnc 0.0.0.0:1,password -vga std -device virtio-balloon-pci,id=balloon0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x5 NOTE: The command above was split at options to make readability easier. qemu-kvm: 1.1.0+dfsg-1 64-bit Kernel is vanilla 3.4.2 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
