Hi,
I want to add a new feature that reports migration actual downtime (the time that the VM was inaccessible to the user).
Libvirt reports that information but the vdsm hosts need to be in sync by clock time. I can measure the ping for NTP server an report back to the user if the ping is too long (more then ~100ms or so) - a way to do that is via ntpstat shell command. The NTP delay can be report back via vdsStats and can be performed every few hours or so.
Anyone knows of a better way that we can sync between hosts?
I am unsure how a ping to clock source is helping, can you please explain more?
In this case I can only report back to the user that its hosts clock is delayed and need to be set...
If you assume clocks are synced why anything more is needed?
Why do I assume that?
Or would you like to have a solution in which you do not require clock sync?
I do need the clock to be in sync - if not libvirts "actual downtime migration" will be not accurate.
Thank you, Shahar Havivi. _______________________________________________ vdsm-devel mailing list vdsm-devel@lists.fedorahosted.org https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/vdsm-devel
