Re: [Engine-devel] Watchdog support Feature
Hi Doron, If the watchdog is set to action="reset" and you break the kernel, the VM will stay in UP state while waiting for the watchdog to reset the VM, and will still be in UP state while rebooting. So in theory engine will not be notified about a crash. This behavior is different when the action="poweroff" because the watchdog will really put the VM in a Down state and it is engine's job to restart it if HA as soon as it receives the notification from VDSM. - Original Message - > From: "Doron Fediuck" > To: "Laszlo Hornyak" > Cc: "engine-devel" > Sent: Sunday, February 10, 2013 4:40:29 PM > Subject: Re: [Engine-devel] Watchdog support Feature > > Hi Laszlo, > Looks very useful.

I had a look at the ovirt feature page and asked some libvirt folks as well, and it all looks good to me except that the libvirt documentation says that an event when watchdog fires will be added in the future. That event has been added. The watchdog should work pretty much identically to the physical world: configure the virtual watchdog card in the guest hardware description and install the watchdog daemon in the guest.

The device itself will not be added by default, and there are a few other actions which can be used (default action is none). So this will be in use only by someone who expects it to reboot. Additionally the watchdog is configurable to fire according to the internal drivers settings, so softdog may be configured to trigger the watchdog by several indicators and not only cpu load / time. ___ Engine-devel mailing list Engine-devel@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/engine-devel
