=== dizz is now known as dizz|away === Makere_ is now known as Makere [15:43] I am having wierd issues with an ebs-backed ami running ubuntu 10.10, eventually /dev/xvdb goes to 100% cpu utilization with no actual I/O [15:45] what is /dev/xvdb it doesn't show up in fstab or "df -h " [15:54] paddy_m, thats just the disk, same as /dev/sda etc [15:56] and not showing in fstab / df -h just means it hasnt been mounted ... === txwikinger2 is now known as txwikinger [16:01] how does it go to 100% i/o util with no read or write requests, and no read or write kbps [16:03] honestly cant tell you that, how are you sure the CPU usage is related to that disk? [16:03] (and not another disk.. aka a mounted one!) [16:04] cpu usage is low, iowait is high [16:05] the machine locks up, and I can't login [16:16] paddy_m, sorry back and forth from my desk ;) .. could it simply be a EC2 issue? [16:17] humm AWS status page doesnt show any issues.. probably isnt an EC2 issue then [16:29] I don't think so, this has happened on multiple instances over multiple days [16:29] we fire up the machine, it starts processing, and then after an hour or so, it ocks hard like this [16:29] humm .. honestly never seen anything like it before (except with EC2 issues) === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [16:45] just wondering what happens when mutiple user open the same file , and save at differnt times [16:47] DeaCon, the last one to save will overwrite the one before... not sure how thats a #ubuntu-cloud question tho ;) [16:47] so one would not get the info saved then [16:48] or can you both open files at the same time [16:48] exactly - just as with any normal operating system and FS .. [16:48] unless your talking about something cloud specific here .. [16:52] well can you get 2 systems to work on the same file at the same time [16:52] if differnt locations [16:52] of course... [16:53] ok i need to read more i guess [16:54] Honestly .. I still have no idea what your trying to do ;) Im guessing its got nothing to do with cloud services? [16:54] Just standard file sharing ? [16:54] im trying to open the same file and not lose info when they are saved [16:55] where is the file stored? [16:55] on my cloud [16:55] Which is .. S3? EC2? something else? [16:55] ok no idea im learning sorry [16:56] what do you mean on "on your cloud" then? what services / software are you using? [16:56] ubuntu one cloud [16:57] aha .. okay ;) Now im starting to get you! [16:57] sorry [16:57] (BTW lead with that sort of detail next time ;)) [16:57] ok will do [16:58] As far as I know, Ubuntu One will, if you open the same file twice on 2x PC's, then save on PC1, then save on PC2 - PC2 changes will be saved, and PC1's lost [16:59] ok great thx [16:59] np [17:01] DeaCon, on and for UbuntuOne stuff, you'll probably get better answers in #ubuntuone .. [17:01] oh and* === xfaf is now known as zul === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [20:40] Has there been a change in libvirtd since 10.04 LTS launch that makes specifying the disk type on domain definition a requirement? [20:40] I have XML files that used to work without problems (in libvirt on 10.04 LTS. [20:41] Now, I have to explicitly state the disk type... before, it used to identify that they were qcow2. Now, everything seems to be set to 'raw' [21:16] cpbtklogic: see the man page and check the package versions you have been using. if that is the case, then i assume that is the case.. [21:17] Hi flaccid... I looked through man pages and changelog... but couldn't see anything overtly stating 'gotta specify type now'. I'll look again. [21:17] If I can't find anything, I might post it to launchpad and let package maintainers figure out if it should be classified a bug or if it is a feature. [21:17] well regardless, if you have to specify it, then i guess you have to. [21:18] cpbtklogic: you might want to go upstream and check first, http://libvirt.org/remote.html [21:18] yeah... that's my take on it too flaccid. However, if there are less aware users out there the files that used to work would now fail to define machines in really weird ways. [21:19] It looks to start and run fine... it is just the BIOS can't see a legit disk if you don't specify the format. [21:20] cpbtklogic: you can check the upstream versions, http://libvirt.org/downloads.html [21:20] yes... thanks flaccid. Will do. [21:20] what package is this in, i don't see it? http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libvirtd&searchon=names&suite=all§ion=all [21:27] I think it is virsh. [21:27] libvirt-bin [21:28] http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/libv/libvirt/libvirt_0.7.5-5ubuntu27.7/changelog [21:28] Actually... you know what flaccid... You just made me find it. [21:28] "SECURITY UPDATE" ... fix multiple issues with disk format for backing stores. [21:30] I think I was looking at the wrong version's changelog earlier. [21:31] I'm going to look up that CVE and see what it is all about. See what it changed, that may very well explain the change in functionality I'm seeing. === uvirtbot` is now known as uvirtbot === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates
