@Rafi, Thanks for the suggestion. What you describe used to happen to me when we were using Oneiric's libvirtd (LP#903212). Since upgrading to Precise I haven't experienced the exact problem you're having.
My issue is that libvirtd seems to temporarily stop responding, enough to block nova-compute, but it then responds to external commands later when I probe it. Looking through my monitoring logs, I can see that libvirtd occasionally stops responding, but not for long enough to generate an alert. I speculate that this is a timing issue, where libvirtd has stopped responding for a very limited period and during that moment nova-compute attempts to poll libvirtd? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/985489 Title: nova-compute stops processing compute.$HOSTNAME occasionally To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/985489/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
