This error appears when a VM was not destroyed properly (with destroyVm 
command). If you destroyed a VM manually, then check your infoDir (it is 
/var/tmp/VmControlQemu/ on my machine, see your Tashi configuration file) and  
delete all files in there.

Subject: Re: Problem with starting node manager

Hi, 

I think we are close to finishing this because we can now see that primitive is 
allocating an IP for the VM .... But, NodeManager gives the error "No vmID 
2850" ... This error is new ... We havent seen an ip being allocated... Any 
help will be appreciated... 

Thanks

Hi, 

We are trying to make it work with Qemu again ... We took the Qemu command from 
the NodeManager and ran it on a seperate terminal as a root. In that case, we 
get the error "could not launch Network script " .. however, if we dont run the 
command as root, we get the error "no network emulation" .. Any thoughts? 

Thanks, 
Hari

it gives hostid->none error when i issue the 

"./bin/tashi-client vmmspecificcall --instance foobar --arg startvnc" ... and 
in the primitive.py terminal , "i see FAILED to schedule or activate vm ... key 
error 2 " 

This is the same error that i was getting when using qemu too

I am not that familiar with Xen. Maybe Michael S can answer from 
here. Where do you see hostid->none error? I you could just copy and 
paste your messages to the screen maybe I can help. It has been 
awhile since I have encountered these error so I might not remember 
exactly what to do. However, if you show me exactly what is printed 
to the screen, it may job my memory.
