GitHub user sjanssen15 closed a discussion: Description missing to mask libvirtd services for Ubuntu
### problem When following the[ install guide on KVM hypervisors](https://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/en/4.20.0.0/installguide/hypervisor/kvm.html), it says at point 2 to mask certain systemd services for RHEL 8 / CentOS 8 / SUSE. However, when following this guide on Ubuntu 24.04, starting libvirtd will fail with an error. When masking these services it doesn't fail. ### versions CloudStack is not yet installed, but trying version 4.20.0.0 install guide OS: Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS Hardware: bare-metal Kernel: 6.8.0-57-generic libvirtd: 10.0.0, package 10.0.0-2ubuntu8.6 cloudstack-agent: noble/4.20.0.0 ### The steps to reproduce the bug 1. [Follow guide](https://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/en/4.20.0.0/installguide/hypervisor/kvm.html) up till end of "Install and Configure libvirt" 2. Try to restart libvirtd 3. See following error in libvirtd service `--listen parameter not permitted with systemd activation sockets, see 'man libvirtd' for further guidance` ### What to do about it? Execute the systemctl mask command from the guide on Ubuntu 24.04.02 in order to make it start. `systemctl mask libvirtd.socket libvirtd-ro.socket libvirtd-admin.socket libvirtd-tls.socket libvirtd-tcp.socket ` GitHub link: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/discussions/10681 ---- This is an automatically sent email for users@cloudstack.apache.org.
