Re: [Users] about live snapshot and qemu-kvm
----- Original Message -----
Hi all,
I'm about to migrate from the dreyou 3.2 repo to the official 3.3
repositories. I was used to take live snapshot with
qemu-kvm-rhev-0.12.1.2-2.355.el6.5.x86_64 which was recompiled from the
redhat srpms, because live snapshot was not supported by the official
qemu-kvm in el6.4.
* Does now 6.5 include the correct qemu-kvm version for live snapshot?
afaik, Centos uses the same compile options as RHEL which means it will *not* include live
snapshot capability.
Up until recently dreyou indeed provided qemu-kvm-rhev, but I believe that this is no
longer compiled.
* If not why does redhat provide a separate qemu package for RHEV
while
fedora has got the correct package?
* Does ovirt team provide support for el6 live snapshot "out of the box"
or do they recommend to get the correct qemu-kvm version from the rhev
repository?
We're still working to find an easy, maintainable way to fill the gap and this should
be resolved sometime soon.
In the interim you can either compile it yourself or if you have the package from other
sources, use that.
Assuming that redhat doesn't provide the same qemu-kvm in rhev
than in el6,
what about including qemu-kvm-rhev in the ovirt el6 repository as dreyou did
?
We're looking into including a qemu-kvm package that has the capabilities compiled in,
in the oVirt el6 repository indeed.
The alternative would be to have it shipped with el6 proper as it was up until now.
Thanks
