Thanks for that update.

We will try that.

If you are using 4.10, we do support migrations when a VM is in unknown (i.e. hypervisor is down) provided there is a shared storage. Next release (4.12) will include the ability to migrate in poweroff.

Meanwhile a work around, (there are two actually fake a hypervisor failure to get the VM in unknown and use the previous feature or fake a migration failure).

I've not tested this myself so watch out:

1.- Update the kvm migrate script by adding at the very beginning something like:

sleep 600
return

We want to get the VM in MIGRATE state for a while

2.- Manually move the VM: Go to the hypervisor, and shut it down (i.e. virsh...); move the config files (those in ssh system datastore); got to the other hypervisor and manually create the VM.

3.- use onevm recover <vmid> success, the VM should become running in the new host. (The sleep'ed migrate operation should be ignored as the VM would be RUNNING)

4.- Undo the changes in the migrate script.

Good Luck

    HI,

    Is there a way to move a VM from one host to an other when
    migrate/live
    migrate fails.

    We are using ceph as backend and have ssh systemstore.

    A process like
    1 poweroff VM
    2 Move the configs
    3 -- I guess that we should do some manual db changes --
    4 poweron machine on new host

    Any comments would be great.

    Thanks,
    - Karsten
