[libvirt-users] image transfer incompletely in live migration

[yli at cloudiya.com]

Hi all,
I am using libvirt version 0.10.1 and qemu-kvm version 1.2.0 with RHEL 6.3

When I use libvirt API to make block migrate with a VM, it failed
frequently. I check the migrated VM and found that the filesystem damaged.
But sometimes it works very fine, I don't know why, it seems to be random.

All failed tests have the same condition, image transfer incompletely in
live migration. The image I used is 10GB size, after a failed migration it
has only about 400MB to 3GB in remote host.

Here is the code:

import libvirt
from xml.dom import minidom

name = "vm-01"
host = libvirt.open("qemu:///system")
vm = host.lookupByNmae(name)
vm_xml_file = "/etc/libvirt/qemu/%s.xml" % name
vm_xml = minidom.parse(vm_xml_file).documentElement.toxml()
remote_host = "qemu+ssh://host02/system"
remote = libvirt.open(remote_host)
try:
vm.migrate2(remote, vm_xml, 89, name, None, 0)
except Exception,e:
print str(e)
Before run the code I have already create a image for migration in remote
host 'host02'. Path, size, and privilege all OK.

Here is the related log:

I try to use command "virsh migrate vm-01 --live --copy-storage-all
--persistent --undefinesource qemu+ssh://host02/system --verbose", the
test results have no change, common but not regular.

Even after my once successful test, it will certainly fail when I try to
make a second migrate with the same VM.

How can I solve this problem？ Anything is helpful.

Thanks.
