cleaning up VM stat

Yes, I received the error, see below:

I'm not completely sure it's the same issue. Have you double check that you have ejected VM CD before doing migration?

_danielgurgel

@olivierlambert Yes, all VMs have ejected CD.

olivierlambert

Ideally, we could make a patch a see if it fixes your issue.

stormi

I've built xenopsd with that patch.

You can download the xenopsd and xenopsd-xc packages (both need to be updated) there:

I believe a toolstack restart is enough afterwards.

What amazing support

_danielgurgel

@stormi After applying the new patch, migrations are no longer failing. We just tested on a new cluster with 20 servers.

Thank you so much for your help.
This patch be including as official update?

olivierlambert

We can do that yes.

stormi

Did the patch fix migrations that were failing before, for the same VMs? Else we're not sure that the issue you had previously was fixed by it.

Your error message was
Caught Xenops_interface.Xenopsd_error([S(Storage_backend_error);[S(SR_BACKEND_FAILURE_46);[S();S(The VDI is not available [opterr=VDI e3222f55-10ce-4d85-b6a8-a7c81f1a5a1d not detached cleanly]);S()]]])

In the commit message the error message that the patch fixes is:
Caught Xs_protocol.Enoent("directory")

stormi

Note: the patch only fixes migration for VMs without any network interface. Was that the case for you?

Edit: looks like this patch could be a fix for https://github.com/xcp-ng/xcp/issues/269

elialum created this issue in xcp-ng/xcp

closed live migration failed - Xenops_interface.Does_not_exist #269

_danielgurgel

@stormi it seems to be the same problem.

Sorry, it may have been the "placebo effect" but after applying the update we no longer had the error when making the migrate.

I'm going to continue the tests... and with VMs without network card, as described in the link.

_danielgurgel

Before applying the patch, in a new pool (during the CH8 update process to XCP8), when moving any VM to the updated host I received the error below.

After installing the patch on the master host and restarting the toolstack on the host master and the source host, we no longer notice error, with the migrate process successfully completing.

The error condition was the failed shutdown of the VM in the live migrate process. So I think the patch made available actually solves the problem in question. (for VMs with and without network interfaces)
