Public bug reported: This is the mirror set I want to use as vm storage. $ ls /dev/md0* /dev/md0 /dev/md0p1
However, when I try to add it as a storage pool using virt-manager, I receive this error message. Error creating pool: Could not start storage pool: cannot open volume '/dev/md01': No such file or directory Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/createpool.py", line 433, in _async_pool_create poolobj = self._pool.install(create=True, meter=meter, build=build) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/virtinst/Storage.py", line 791, in install build=build) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/virtinst/Storage.py", line 474, in install raise RuntimeError(errmsg) RuntimeError: Could not start storage pool: cannot open volume '/dev/md01': No such file or directory I receive this same error even if I reference the mirror device as /dev/disk/by-uuid/259b1953-86c5-4d98-994e-79bb80491d8d instead of /dev/md0. I /am/ able to start the storage pool if I fdisk the mirror and remove the partition on it. It is pretty clear that there is something hard- coded to expect bland partition numbering which is not guaranteed. This command is a workaround. However, I don't expect it to persist across reboots (without some /etc/rc.local action) and it is pretty lame. :( $ sudo ln -s md0p1 /dev/md01 ** Affects: libvirt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Unable to add /dev/md0 as storage pool https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/588953 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
