Re: [Users] Building ovirt-guest-agent is destroying my VM!

2013-11-26 Thread Thomas Suckow


Honestly this does not sound like an issue to me which is caused by 
Python or the build of the guest agent

I would start looking into the logs for the Host.
Shot in the dark, but I would also check the memory usage on the host 
and how over provisioned you are. If the host started paging 
significantly it could become unresponsive.

Both times when I tried to start the Windows 7 VM again, ovirt refused 
to start it.  I get the message

Failed to run VM Win7-01 (User: admin@internal).

So off to restore the VM for a second time

Any explanation how Python is able to destroy a VM like that?

Please check the logs in /var/log/libvirt/qemu for the corresponding VM 
log  (Win7-01)

Also check your logs if you find any hints in /var/log/vdsm/libvirtd.log
and /var/log/vdsm/vdsm.log
