updated libvirt for EL7?

------=_Part_1380138_18777795.1430920228532 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello.I came across a message posting from Sandro from a couple of weeks ba= ck that was about providing a libvirt > 1.2.9 for some upstream VDSM testin= g.I would actually be interested in a newer libvirt to take advantage of so= me of the newer capabilities there. For now I've found this repo - https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/opensta= ck/.virt-upstream-el7/ - which has libvirt 1.2.11 packages, built as or lat= er December 2014. Are we likely to see a newer libvirt appear for EL7 somewhere on cbs.centos= .org at some stage in the near future?=C2=A0=C2=A0 I'd also be interested i= n newer qemu-kvm-ev packages if these will be built.=C2=A0 I'm currently us= ing the qemu-kvm-ev packages from here - http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt7-= testing/x86_64/os/Packages/ Alternatively, is there some other repository that I can look to for these?= To preempt the question - I don't want to use Fedora for this and am instea= d hoping to find EL7 packages as EL7 is currently standard in my lab. Thanks in advance. =C2=A0 ------=_Part_1380138_18777795.1430920228532 Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html><body><div style=3D"color:#000; background-color:#fff; font-family:He= lvetica Neue-Light, Helvetica Neue Light, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial,= Lucida Grande, Sans-Serif;font-size:16px"><div id=3D"yui_3_16_0_1_14309197= 84674_2475">Hello.</div><div id=3D"yui_3_16_0_1_1430919784674_2445">I came = across a message posting from Sandro from a couple of weeks back that was a= bout providing a libvirt > 1.2.9 for some upstream VDSM testing.</div><d= iv id=3D"yui_3_16_0_1_1430919784674_2446">I would actually be interested in= a newer libvirt to take advantage of some of the newer capabilities there.= </div><div dir=3D"ltr" id=3D"yui_3_16_0_1_1430919784674_2447"><br>For now I= 've found this repo - <a id=3D"yui_3_16_0_1_1430919784674_2482" href=3D"htt= ps://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/openstack/.virt-upstream-el7/">https://re= pos.fedorapeople.org/repos/openstack/.virt-upstream-el7/</a> - which has li= bvirt 1.2.11 packages, built as or later December 2014.</div><div id=3D"yui= _3_16_0_1_1430919784674_2469" dir=3D"ltr"><br></div><div id=3D"yui_3_16_0_1= _1430919784674_2483" dir=3D"ltr">Are we likely to see a newer libvirt appea= r for EL7 somewhere on cbs.centos.org at some stage in the near future?&nbs= p; I'd also be interested in newer qemu-kvm-ev packages if these will= be built.

Hi Paul, qemu-kvm-ev is available in http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt7-testing/x86_64/os/Packages and in http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-master-snapshot/rpm/el7/x86_64/ I'm going to update it for 3.5.z too following Bug 1215744 - Rebuild qemu-img-ev and qemu-kvm-ev to include fix for "Bug 1203543 - bdrv_make_zero() passes a too large nb_sectors value to bdrv_write_zeroes()" as soon as it will be available. For libvirt, vdsm guys solved without requiring a newer version so we're not going to build a newer version for now.

Hi Sandro, I can't find differences between qemu-kvm-rhev and qemu-kvm-ev, except the last one is more recent (2.1). qemu-kvm-rhev was built for activating the live migration feature, is qemu-kvm-ev built for activating live merge feature? Le 06/05/2015 16:46, Sandro Bonazzola a écrit :

ah ok, and what about live merge on el7? I made some test, but live merge failed, does it exist any requirements? Le 06/05/2015 17:25, Sandro Bonazzola a écrit :
