Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ii libvirt-bin 0.9.2-4ubuntu15 ii libvirt00.9.2-4ubuntu15 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create and define a VM, but do not start it. 2. virsh edit the VM. 3. Change the UUID 4. Save and exit the editor. 5. Error message appears: error: operation failed: domain 'orchestra' already exists with uuid 4dd4e4bc-ec46-d7b8-5935-cbd727dd89c0 6. Observe XML file in /etc/libvirt/qemu now gone, and never called me mother. Actual results: XML file vanished, and VM config lost to posterity. Expected results: VM config should still exist, with an updated UUID. libvirt should honour the updated UUID.

I see the message about domain already exists with uuid..., but the VM is unaffected following the attempt to edit it. What version of libvirt are you using?

I was unable to reproduce this on Xenial/Wily. I edited the UUID and had to also edit the name. This creates an additional domain with the new name and UUID. If this bug still affects you please re-open with the affected version.

@Shevek, thanks for taking the time to report this bug. In your report, you say that the original xml file disappeared. For me, the original xml file did not disappear. Can you try again and confirm that that happens for you? It makes a significant difference in the importance of this bug if that can happen. ** Summary changed: - libvirt deletes VM configuration file after edit + libvirt deletes VM configuration file after editing uuid ** Also affects: libvirt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed ** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium ** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium = High ** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu) Importance: High = Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/940539 Title: libvirt deletes VM configuration file after editing uuid To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/libvirt/+bug/940539/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
