We see this same issue in one of our production systems. The live backup scripts fail every few days and it is necessary to manually run a blockjob abort and a subsequent blockcommit usually passes. The backup scripts can be found here: https://github.com/dpsenner/libvirt- administration-tools
On [email protected] a dev suggested to upgrade libvirt to a newer version of libvirt. He indicated that virsh 1.3.1 is ancient and artful is actually already at 3.6. It would seem that they have addressed several issues and fixed several race conditions as indicated in earlier comments. Unfortunately there's no way to upgrade the production systems os to a newer ubuntu release just for gigs. It would however help if a newer version of libvirt was backported to 16.04 lts. Are there any dependency issues that prevent the backport of a newer libvirt? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1681839 Title: libvirt - disk not ready for pivot yet To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1681839/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
