Migrate Ganeti installations in eqsin to a fixed KVM machine type
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

As a preparation for the Bullseye update we need to switch the KVM machine type for the Ganeti cluster to pc-i440fx-3.1 (the "hardware" provided by qemu 3.1). Otherwise we wouldn't be able to migrate machines between Bullseye (which would default to pc-i440fx-5.0) and Buster nodes.

This requires the following steps:

  • sudo gnt-cluster modify --hypervisor-parameters kvm:machine_version=pc-i440fx-3.1

Restart all instances of the cluster. A reboot from within the OS isn't sufficient, this needs to be rebooted on the Ganeti level so that the KVM instance gets restarted (kind of comparable to resetting a computer with the power button). There's a cookbook for this: sre.ganeti.reboot-vm FQDN
