Hello,
this topic is quite old but I got the same problem recently and couldn't find reliable information.. Here is the question:
Is live migration of Windows guests, which use VirtIO disk interface possible in latest stable release (3.3.3) and latest libvirt on EL6?
We are currently using 3.3.1 on EL6 and plan to upgrade to 3.3.3 this week. We can't live migrate Windows guests, which use VirtIO disk interface and scsi driver 0.1.59. Further on, Windows server 2012 doesn't update from virtio 0.1-74 iso as the drivers look the same to it. Windows with IDE interface migrate OK but the performance is much worse, so that isn't an option. I can later provide log files and package versions, but before I do that, I just want to ask users if I am missing something. Thanks.
I'm on 3.3.2-1-el6 with Windows 2012 using virtio and can migrate without problems. Joop
