Is this expected?
Possibly the default changed at some point in time, so that now it=20
saves memory and so this implies pause of VM
Saving memory is essential in some
ap=C3=A0plications like DB, so you won=
't=20
bypass vm pauses for such a stuff
In the mean time I verified changing backup.py this way solves
the=20
problem (the 3.6 api deprecation still in place... ;-):
$ diff backup.py backup.py.orig
123c123
<=20
vm.snapshots.add(params.Snapshot(description=3Dconfig.get_snapshot_desc=
ription(),=20
vm=3Dvm,persist_memorystate=3DFalse))
---
>=20
vm.snapshots.add(params.Snapshot(description=3Dconfig.get_snapshot_desc=
ription(),=20
vm=3Dvm))
The snapshot doesn't include memory and no problem at VM OS side now
Tested also getting the parameter from config file
Modifications needed in this case:
1)
$ diff backup.py backup.py.orig
123c123
<=20
vm.snapshots.add(params.Snapshot(description=3Dconfig.get_snapshot_desc=
ription(),=20
vm=3Dvm,persist_memorystate=3Dconfig.get_persist_memorystate()))
---
>=20
vm.snapshots.add(params.Snapshot(description=3Dconfig.get_snapshot_desc=
ription(),=20
vm=3Dvm))
2)
$ diff config.py config.py.orig
34d33
< self.__persist_memorystate =3D=20
config_parser.getboolean(section, "persist_memorystate")
113,116d111
<
<
< def get_persist_memorystate(self):
< return self.__persist_memorystate
And in config file called add:
# Save Memory in snapshot
persist_memorystate=3DFalse
It could be further improved if one wants to differentiate save memory=20
for some VMs and not for other ones....
HIH other ones,
Gianluca
