I have tried with SMT enabled and disabled. I have tried the latest cloud image as well as previous onces we had saved. I have tried running the qemu-system-ppc64 command found below manually with the same error. The full output from the test is as follows: Executing KVM Test DEBUG:root:Starting KVM Test DEBUG:root:Cloud image location specified: http://10.1.10.2/cloud/xenial-server-cloudimg-ppc64el-disk1.img.
