Hello *, @Serge,
I'm pretty sure now where is the problem. Disk related. The patch waiting for 'disk' is not sufficient. I have updated the libvirt.0.8.8 with 0.9.3 compiled locally. Nothing changes, one VM (over two in autostart) is starting. Short libvirt log activated : 20:38:48.728: 1226: info : libvirt version: 0.9.3 20:38:48.728: 1226: error : qemuMonitorIORead:487 : Unable to read from monitor: Connection reset by peer 20:38:48.736: 1234: error : qemuMonitorTextGetPtyPaths:1960 : operation failed: failed to retrieve chardev info in qemu with 'info chardev' 20:38:49.751: 1234: error : qemuAutostartDomain:156 : Failed to autostart VM 'ipcop-clone': operation failed: failed to retrieve chardev info in qemu with 'info chardev' Every VM is tried. Some fail ;-) The complete debug shows what is wrong. Libvirt try to open some socket/file on "/var/lib/libvirt/...... AND /var is not ready (not mounted, residing on lvm system) See the full log in attachement #L1 starts ipcop-clone #L104 failure declared for this VM #L876 starts ipcop #1005 successfully open the monitor chanel, go on Can you fix your patch for this ? Need to wait also for some utility directories like /var/run /var/lib !
