[Bug 1322433] Re: virt-manager cloning ignores--sparse flag

2014-05-25 Thread Philip Orleans
The way VMware does it is like this: when you are about clone a VM, you need to chose its on-disk format, a) Sparse, b) Full, c) Same as Source. Sometimes you clone a VM but you want to change its dosk-format from Sparse to Full. We should follow the same path. -- You received this bug notific

I did not explain myself correctly. Once you install libvirt and LXC, go ahead and type "virsh start myvm" the error message that shows up says "I cannot find xxx in /usr/libexec". Then you find that and make symlink to /usr/libexec, and it works. So what you say is true: "libvirt-bin and qemu

new data as requested by the way, the issue can be simply recreated by removing the symlinks. I can give you access, between 12 Pm and 6 Am, and you can try to start container or a virtual machine without the symlinks. On Wed, May 14, 2014 at 5:06 PM, Serge Hallyn <1318...@bugs.launchpad.net> wro

Public bug reported: Scenario You have a Virtual Machine where you created the *.img file without clicking in "allocate all the space now", so the virtual disk file is sparse, which is great. Suppose your file is nominally larger than your available space in the Host. Then, if you attempt to c

I have the perfect case set up. I installed a new server, Ubuntu 14.04 Server. LXC is working fine. Then I copied a bunch of virtual machines from my original server. I copied the virtual disk and the *.xml. The servers are identical, same Dell machine, same CPU, etc. When I try to define the v

There is a misunderstanding. The issue is not about LXC, it is about regular KVM networwking, part of Ubuntu. If you read carefully the case or my emails, I say "LXC works".

The issue comes from this: in a Red Hat KVM virtual machine, the line is correct. I did not think that the machine definition file was not portable between KVM, or libvirt implementations. My guess is that it should be. On Mon, Jun 9, 2014 at 7:14 PM, Serge Hallyn <1318...@bugs.launchpad.net> wro
