Hm, here I start libvirt (as clone-resource) from pacemaker and don't have such problems. But fi I remember correctly I have a) both order and location constraints for the VMs to libvirtclone, b) location-constraints to pingd-value and c) my own RA for virtual machine that reacts differently when libvirtd isn't started yet. But I also had to restore a vm from backup when an os-update stopped (and didn't restart) libvirtd and pacemaker started a second instance of the machine on a different host. Now I think I remember to put nodes to standby-mode before doing upgrades of core-components... <snip> > Also, a running libvirtd is not > needed, to the best of my knowledge, when the hypervisor in use is Xen > rather than KVM. With KVM you can also start virtual machine without libvirtd. You just have to use qemu-kvm and a lot of commandline parameters. Have fun, Arnold
