Hi have 2 servers with the same partirion schema: sdb6 xfs /mnt/sheepdog 20G I created a disk called test # collie vdi list name id size used shared creation time vdi id ------------------------------------------------------------------ test 1 10 GB 536 MB 0.0 MB 2011-08-14 15:28 7c2b25 I run a vm using a systemrescuecd iso: qemu-system-x86_64 sheepdog:test -cdrom /root/systemrescuecd-x86-2.3.0.iso -boot order=d -m 1024 -smp 1 -vnc :1 -daemonize -no-kvm Unfortunatrly these two servers do not have vt-tecnology so I used qemu-kvm vithout it (but this doesn't matter for us). >From system rescue I run dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1M count=512 Happy to see it was working, I shut off the vm. I created a new partition only on server1 of the same size of the other, but on another phisical disk: sdc6 xfs /mnt/sheepdog2 20G sheep /mnt/sheepdog2 I was windering when does sheepdog start to balance the cluser. I aspect to see data be moved from /mnt/sheepdog right away or when a vm try to write something new. Right away nothing happened. So I run again 'qemu-system-x86_64 sheepdog:test ...' but, this time, the command doesn't go in background and simply do nothing! I also tried to create sdc6 on server2 and run 'sheep /mnt/sheepdog2', but qemu is still blocked when I run it. No strange things in dmesg. On server2: more /mnt/sheepdog2/sheep.log Aug 15 11:59:48 jrnl_recover(2221) Openning the directory /mnt/sheepdog2//journal/00000000/. Aug 15 11:59:48 create_listen_ports(163) can't create a listen fd On server1 the same file is empty. This is the last part of '/mnt/sheepdog/sheep.log' on server2.
