Greetings All,
I was running libvirt-0.9.10 on CentOS 6.3 and it was working perfectly
until yesterday when I decided to update to 6.4, which upgraded
libvirt-0.9.10 to libvirt-0.10.2.
I have a storage pool of type volume group, upon upgrading to
libvirt-0.10.2, the disk image gets created as a snapshot on the volume
group not as a regular volume.
Now every time I create a vm using virt-install on a vg, the lv gets
created as a snapshot not a regular lv, as a result I get the following
error when I run dmesg:
device-mapper: snapshots: Invalidating snapshot: Unable to allocate
exception.
Buffer I/O error on device dm-5, logical block 128251
Buffer I/O error on device dm-5, logical block 256

and the following on the domain's log file:
block I/O error in device 'drive-virtio-disk0': Input/output error (5)
# virt-install --name="ns1" --vcpus="2" --check-cpu --ram=512
--os-variant="rhel6" --network "bridge=br0" --disk
"pool=vdisks,size=22,cache=writeback" --vnc --hvm --vnclisten="0.0.0.0"
--cdrom="/mnt/ISOs/centos/x86_64/CentOS-6.3-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso" --hvm
# lvs | grep ns
ns1.img vm_volumes swi-aos-- 4.00m [ns1.img_vorigin] 0.00
When I try to create a volume using virt-manager on the volume group, it
gets created as a snapshot. But when I create a volume using virsh, it
gets created correctly;
virsh # vol-create-as vdisks test 23622320128
# lvs | grep test
test vm_volumes -wi-a---- 22.00g
If anyone came across this issue or can provide an advice, I will
appreciate it so much.
