[help] failed to launch guestfs in different Openstack environment
Hello guys, This is Phoenix from Dell and we now have one strange issue related to launch guestfs in Openstack environment. In Openstack of our lab, guestfs can be launched successfully within one SLES12 instance. While when our SLES12 instance is deployed in customer's Openstack, we see guestfs cannot be launched. And also the error message is ambiguous : [cid:e6918586-90ff-46c7-b0d3-97e48ac9a22a] Do you have any idea whether there is some settings in Openstack ( such as KVM setting, libvirt setting ...) will prevent guestfs from launching ? Or is there any method for us to retrieve further debugging information ? We have enable debug option in guestfish command : "guestfish -x -v --ro -a ./7f489bbb-a0c3-42bc-9f55-35db948d5575?" Thanks a lot ! Regards, Phoenix

What does libguestfs-test-tool say? Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones Read my programming and virtualization blog: http://rwmj.wordpress.com libguestfs lets you edit virtual machines. Supports shell scripting, bindings from many languages. http://libguestfs.org
Oh I see an image was attached. The error is: KVM: entry failed, hardware error 0x0 I've no idea what that means, but you can use TCG instead: http://libguestfs.org/guestfs.3.html#force_tcg which will be slow but avoids using KVM. But the general problem seems to be that KVM is broken on your machine, which is going to cause you other problems eventually. Libguestfs was just the first thing to tell you.
