Patches are ready to solve this entirely in the libvirt layer one & for all. It'll be fixed with libvirt 1.3.3 https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-February/msg01449.html -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nova

2015-09-15 Thread Daniel Berrange
This is simply user error - OpenStack has a documented list of required architecture values http://docs.openstack.org/cli-reference/content/chapter_cli-glance- property.html Nova should not have to apply workarounds for every possible way the user can specify incorrect architecture names. -- Yo

[Bug 1418187] Re: _get_host_numa_topology assumes numa cell has memory

2015-03-02 Thread Daniel Berrange
FYI, having _get_host_numa_topology() not generate an exception on reporting is the least of our worries here. The scheduling placement code for NUMA guests assumes that all NUMA cells have both memory & cpus. So with the proposed patch you will have silenced the exception, but Nova will still be b

2014-06-27 Thread Daniel Berrange
Public bug reported: The libvirt configure script has a special feature especially for distro vendors to use when building binary packages which lets them encode a bit of information about the builds, which then ends up in log files. This does not appear to be used in Ubuntu builds which makes it

2014-04-08 Thread Daniel Berrange
Ok that log is interesting as it shows that Ubuntu have re-named the QEMU machine types ... -machine trusty,accel=tcg,usb=off ... See 'trusty' is the machine type there instead of the more usual "pc- i440fx-1.6" This unfortunately breaks the ability of libvirt to figure out what type of base b

2012-08-06 Thread Daniel Berrange
$ virsh define /tmp/foo.xml error: Failed to define domain from /tmp/foo.xml error: internal error no supported architecture for os type 'hvm' This means that libvirt can't find any way to provide the requested domain configuration. Since your XML shows you requested KVM, most likely this means

2012-06-15 Thread Daniel Berrange
IMHO having fixed size rotated logs per VM with max number of files, is a better solution that a ringbuffer. It really doesn't complicate the code that much to have to potentially just read a few lines from a second rotated logfile. While I agree that conserver is overkill if satisfying the requi

[Bug 832507] Re: console.log grows indefinitely

2012-06-15 Thread Daniel Berrange
Having examined the idea of the libvirt_consoled a bit more, I think it is not actually required. It is possible to get good support for console logging, max bounded size, rollover, & secure remote access, simply by dropping in the standard 'conserver' daemon with a suitable configuration file. Th
