Subject: domain uuid always change in xl list -l if no uuid in vm.cfg
Date: Thu, 15 May 2014 16:00:31 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <53751CDF.4000207@oracle.com> (raw)
Hi,
`xl list --long` will return a random domain UUID if no UUID is specified in vm.cfg::
# xl list -l |grep uuid
"uuid": "bbf0c18e-3325-4fe9-b303-5fa1ef0751c5",
# xl list -l |grep uuid
"uuid": "4982f6e2-0e17-4c88-8fa1-1d333d9f1f6e",
In this case, the domain handle (uuid) is set as `ffc51cf9-2fb2-4838-b757-bcd65ace42b6` and will not change.
I think we may need always return the domain handle as shown in xenstore::
# xenstore-read /local/domain/1/vm
/vm/ffc51cf9-2fb2-4838-b757-bcd65ace42b6
Related code tool/libxl/xl_cmdimpl.c:
static void parse_config_data(...
if (!xlu_cfg_get_string (config, "uuid", &buf, 0) ) {
if ( libxl_uuid_from_string(&c_info->uuid, buf) ) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to parse UUID: %s\n", buf);
exit(1);
}
}else{
libxl_uuid_generate(&c_info->uuid);
}
I don't think it's right to just get the domain handle here. We may need to refactor the logic a little.
If Wei or anyone else is working on related staff, please consider this.
Thanks,
Zhigang
