+ [Impact]
  
- [Possible Fix]
+   * Cannot start virtual machines with large pools of memory allocated 
+ on NUMA nodes.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  * Configure a Machine with at least 2 NUMA nodes.
+ 
+    root@buneary:/home/ubuntu# virsh freepages 0 1G
+    1048576KiB: 60
+ 
+    root@buneary:/home/ubuntu# virsh freepages 1 1G
+    1048576KiB: 62
+ 
+  * Create a guest that uses the full amount of available huge pages (on
+ this case 122). (full guest definition:
+ http://paste.ubuntu.com/25125500/)
+ 
+ <memory unit='GiB'>120</memory>
+   <currentMemory unit='GiB'>120</currentMemory>
+ 
+   <memoryBacking>
+     <hugepages>
+       <page size='1' unit='GiB' nodeset='0'/>
+       <page size='1' unit='GiB' nodeset='1'/>
+     </hugepages>
+ 
+   </memoryBacking>
+ 
+   <cpu mode='host-passthrough'>
+ 
+     <topology sockets='16' cores='1' threads='2'/>
+     <numa>
+       <cell id='0' cpus='0-15' memory='60' unit='GiB' memAccess='shared'/>
+       <cell id='1' cpus='16-31' memory='62' unit='GiB' memAccess='shared'/>
+     </numa>
+   </cpu>
+ 
+  * Define the guest, and try to start it.
+ 
+   $ virsh define reproducer.xml
+   $ virsh start reproducer
+ 
+ * Verify that the following error is raised:
+ 
+ root@buneary:/home/ubuntu# virsh start reproducer2
+ error: Failed to start domain reproducer2
+ error: monitor socket did not show up: No such file or directory
+ 
+ [Expected Behavior]
+ 
+ * Machine is started without issues as displayed 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1705132/comments/7
+    
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+  * None identified.
