Hi,

More info; in de log file of the nova-scheduler we see messages like (<HOST> is 
de compute host name):

<HOST>, <HOST> fails NUMA topology requirements. No host NUMA topology while 
the instance specified one. host_passes 
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/nova/scheduler/filters/numa_topology_filter.py:100
Filter NUMATopologyFilter returned 0 hosts

So, we are not sure if the filters are ok in nova.conf:

scheduler_default_filters=RetryFilter,AvailabilityZoneFilter,RamFilter,ComputeFilter,ComputeCapabilitiesFilter,ImagePropertiesFilter,CoreFilter,NUMATopologyFilter
