[ovirt-users] How to migrate un-migratable VMs?
Hi, Some VMs are doing high guest-memory writes (mainly files and mail servers, but not only), so migrations are reproductively failing. I found some info here : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=919201 that confirm what I was fearing. This BZ is aging from dinosaurs times, so I was wondering now we're in the 3.6.x age and 4.x coming, are there advices one may give to migrate those verbose VMs? I guess increasing the allowed page memory is not a correct answer as it will fill as before. Any thoughts? -- Nicolas ECARNOT ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
