Package: libvirt-bin Version: 0.7.6-2 Severity: normal
Hi, I've defined an iscsi target in a pool through XML file : <pool type="iscsi"> <name>equalog</name> <source> <host name="10.10.0.1"/> <device path="iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:0-8a0906-4992c7f05-39c000000114b8fc-vglog"/> </source> <target> <path>/dev/disk/by-path</path> </target> </pool> At pool startup (virsh pool-start mypool) an entry is created in /dev/disk/by-path corresponding to my target. I added this XML code in my VM config to make it usable in guest : <disk type='block' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu'/> <source dev='/dev/disk/by-path/ip-10.10.0.1:3260-iscsi-iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:0-8a0906-4992c7f05-39c000000114b8fc-vglog-lun-0'/> <target dev='vdc' bus='virtio'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x06' function='0x0'/> </disk> The guest boots and a /dev/vdc is fully usable. Guest and iscsi pool are flagged autostart. When you reboot the host, libvirtd failed at autostarting iscsi pool with the folowing message (grep iscsi /var/log/syslog) : Mar 17 15:15:51 sandi libvirtd: 15:15:51.035: error : virRunWithHook:869 : internal error '/usr/bin/iscsiadm --mode discovery --type sendtargets --portal 10.10.0.1:3260,1' exited with non-zero status 255 and signal 0: iscsiadm: cannot make connection to 10.10.0.1:3260 (113)#012iscsiadm: connection to discovery address 10.10.0.1 failed#012iscsiadm: cannot make connection to 10.10.0.1:3260 (113)#012iscsiadm: connection to discovery address 10.10.0.1 failed#012iscsiadm: cannot make connection to 10.10.0.1:3260 (113)#012iscsiadm: connection to discovery address 10.10.0.1 failed#012iscsiadm: cannot make connection to 10.10.0.1:3260 (113)#012iscsiadm: connection to discovery address 10.10.0.1 failed#012iscsiadm: cannot make connection to 10.10.0.1:3260 (113)#012iscsiadm: connection to discovery address 10.10.0.1 failed#012iscsiadm: connection login retries (reopen_max) 5 exceeded#012iscsiadm: Could not perform SendTargets discovery.#012 As a consequence, the guest does not start : Mar 17 15:15:52 sandi libvirtd: 15:15:52.026: error : virStorageFileGetMetadata:415 : cannot open file '/dev/disk/by-path/ip-10.10.0.1:3260-iscsi-iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:0-8a0906-4992c7f05-39c000000114b8fc-vglog-lun-0': No such file or directory Mar 17 15:15:52 sandi libvirtd: 15:15:52.026: error : qemuAutostartDomain:595 : Failed to autostart VM 'gaelle': cannot open file '/dev/disk/by-path/ip-10.10.0.1:3260-iscsi-iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:0-8a0906-4992c7f05-39c000000114b8fc-vglog-lun-0': No such file or directory If you perform an /etc/init.d/libvirt-bin restart just after boot sequence (ie with the OS started and user logged as root) it operates smoothly. It seems that libvirtd comes too early in booting process.
