Dec 1, 2025Month 2025-12 summary for avocado-vt: Implemented QEMU Migration Failure Logging to improve migration diagnostics. The feature captures QEMU logs from source and destination hosts on failure, integrating with the migration failure path and enabling three modes (local, remote, both) with configurable log length. This was implemented in avocado-framework/avocado-vt, including get_qemu_log() and updates to check_result(). Commit 20eb8247e1ecd67fd67c15b7ed325bc2327c47dd documents the changes. Result: improved observability, faster root-cause analysis, and more reliable migration workflows, delivering measurable business value by reducing downtime and speeding triage across migration failures.

Jun 1, 2025June 2025: Implemented clarity improvements and upgrade improvements in avocado-vt to reduce misconfiguration risk and improve deployment reliability. Key changes include memory parameter rename for consume_vm_freememory (remain_mem) with no behavioral changes, and the addition of remove_existing to prepare_qemu_guest_agent to allow uninstallation of older qemu-guest-agent versions before installing the latest agent (default False). These changes enhance maintainability, reduce upgrade friction, and ensure consistent deployments across environments.
