Live Migration of VM with Virtio on host running vhost_user =========================================================== Overview -------- Live Migration of a VM with DPDK Virtio PMD on a host which is running the Vhost sample application (vhost-switch) and using the DPDK PMD (ixgbe or i40e). The Vhost sample application uses VMDQ so SRIOV must be disabled on the NIC's. The following sections show an example of how to do this migration. Test Setup ---------- To test the Live Migration two servers with identical operating systems installed are used. KVM and QEMU is also required on the servers. QEMU 2.5 is required for Live Migration of a VM with vhost_user running on the hosts. In this example, the servers have Niantic and or Fortville NIC's installed. The NIC's on both servers are connected to a switch which is also connected to the traffic generator. The switch is configured to broadcast traffic on all the NIC ports. The ip address of host_server_1 is 10.237.212.46 The ip address of host_server_2 is 10.237.212.131 .. _figure_lm_vhost_user: .. figure:: img/lm_vhost_user.* Live Migration steps -------------------- The sample scripts mentioned in the steps below can be found in the :ref:`Sample host scripts ` and :ref:`Sample VM scripts ` sections.
