Hi,
I believe it's save, but just wanted to re-check, is it save to restart libvirtd on a HV running ~40 VMs ?
Hi,
for libvirt questions, I'd rather use libvirt-users@redhat.com, but for this particular one, I can confirm that libvirt is written in a way that enables it to be restarted without any impact on the machines which are being ran.
Of course I can't say "nothing will happen" due to the fact that every single time something can happen, but nothing _should_ happen to any of your machines.
Indeed. Vdsm should notice that libvirtd has died, and restart itself. However, it would be safer to stop Vdsm explicitly before you do that (for example http://gerrit.ovirt.org/8283 )
