I was running on Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS. I have now upgraded to Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS. "Address" seems to be in this newer version. Thanks for that! However, now I cannot even add disks at all to the virtual servers. If you look at the flow bellow, you see that I start a virtual server, removes a disk and then tries to add it again (using 2 methods). First method (attach-device) just sits there forever and I have to cancel it. The second method (attach-disk) timeouts after some time. The log-file just states: 2013-04-09 22:35:57.000+0000: 6203: error : qemuDomainObjBeginJobInternal:789 : Timed out during operation: cannot acquire state change lock I assume this means that libvirt cannot contact the QEMU monitor? How can I test that the QEMU monitor is still responding? Is there a way to bypass libvirt and send commands to QEMU Monitor manually?
