Dean Kamali commented on CLOUDSTACK-2455:
-----------------------------------------
Well, according to documentation supported OSs are CentOS & Ubuntu 12.4.1 for
CS 4.1 only.
FYI, I had issues using 12.4.(2)! so a minor release could break things! so it
is obvious it will break for Debian
> Cannot add a Debian host to a KVM cluster
> -----------------------------------------

> Key: CLOUDSTACK-2455
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-2455
> Project: CloudStack
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the
> default.)
> Components: Hypervisor Controller, Install and Setup, KVM
> Affects Versions: 4.0.0, 4.0.1, 4.0.2
> Reporter: Ahmad Saif
>
> After installing the cloud-agent packages on Debain system, you cannot add it
> to a KVM cluster due to a bug on the python library "utilities.py" The
> script on "class Distribution" will do the same operation for Ubuntu if the
> distor is Debian, which is wrong .. for the following reasons :
> 1st: it will check as instructed for the following file "/etc/legal" and make
> sure it have the word "Ubuntu" on it, and this file doesn’t exist on Debian
> 2nd: It will check if the KVM is enabled by calling a system script that is
> not available on Debian the script is "/usr/sbin/kvm-ok"
> The proposed work-around is :
> for the first issue : echo "Ubuntu" > /etc/legal
> for the second issue is to copy the content of kvm-ok from an Ubuntu system
> and put it on the same path on the Debian system.
> I think the fix for this bug should be like this :
> When looking for the distro check "/etc/issue", and when checking if the KVM
> enabled or not use the same function used on Centos, by checking if the path
> ("/dev/kvm") exist
