Hi all

I ran into a problem testing live migration.
I have two Identical Dell R200 Intel Boxes with 4G RAM and 2.5Ghz Intel CPUs (Quad-Cores). I identically installed Ubuntu Intrepid Alpha-3 x86_64 (OK - a bit on the bleeding edge, but offers kvm-71 at the moment).
As a guest OS I use Ubunte Jeos 8.04.1 i686.

I have a iSCSI device, where I have the disk images as raw block devices.
ISO-Images for CDs/DVDs are on a NFS share.
I use bridged networking and virtio.
The two systems are on the same subnet.
The QEMU Monitor is used on a socket bound to localhost, the same is true for VNC.

I now start the virtual machine to migrate on host A:
>/usr/bin/qemu -name vm1 -boot c -M pc -smp 1 -m 512 -monitor tcp:127.0.0.1:4101,server,nowait -vnc 127.0.0.1:1 -net >nic,macaddr=00:16:3e:0c:ed:c1,vlan=0,model=rtl8139 -net tap,script=/home/administrator/my-ifup.sh,vlan=0,ifname=vnet1 -drive >file=/dev/disk/by-path/ip-10.0.1.20:3260-iscsi-iqn.2006-01.com.openfiler:vm1-lun-0,if=ide,index=0 -drive
>file=/mnt/iso-images/jeos-8.04.1-jeos-i386.iso,if=ide,media=cdrom,index=2

Wait for the VM to fully boot into the OS.

Now, I start the VM in migration-listen mode on host B:
>/usr/bin/kvm -S -name vm1 -boot c -M pc -smp 1 -m 512 -monitor tcp:127.0.0.1:4101,server,nowait -vnc 127.0.0.1:1 -net >nic,macaddr=00:16:3e:0c:ed:c1,vlan=0,model=virtio -net tap,script=/home/administrator/my-ifup.sh,vlan=0,ifname=vnet1 -drive >file=/dev/disk/by-path/ip-10.0.1.20:3260-iscsi-iqn.2006-01.com.openfiler:vm1-lun-0,if=ide,index=0,boot=on -drive >file=/mnt/iso-images/jeos-8.04.1-jeos-i386.iso,if=ide,media=cdrom,index=2 -incoming tcp://10.0.1.30:4444

Now, on host A, using telnet, I connect to the QEMU monitor:
>telnet localhost 4101
and start the migration
> (QEMU) migrate tcp://10.0.1.30:4444

After a while, on host B (the target), I see the following error:
>migration: wait_for_go: read error len=0 (Interrupted system call)
>Migration failed rc=210

while on host A, I read following error message:
>WAIT FOR ACK: timeout reached
>Migration failed! ret=0 error=13

I am sure I tried the same scenario on Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 with kvm-62 successfully (on different hardware).

I am doing something wrong? Anyone ran in the same issue and maybe has a resolution? I googled for hours by now, but did not find many articles about kvm live migration.

Any help is appreciated,

Thanks in advance
Dani
