Hi, I've found out that the reason for my problems was that libvirtd was continuously crashing at start-up on my OpenNebula Front-End. Since I didn't manage to repair it so far, for the time being, I disabled it completely, and this seemed to make the error disappear, that is, my KVM drivers are loaded successfully ever since.
However, I got a question here, which might be naive, but I got really curious now: shouldn't the hypervisor, virtualization drivers, libvirt settings and all the related stuff be affecting OpenNebula only in case of the hosts? How (and why) does the fact that libvirt is crashing on my front-end affect the ONE system? Thanks, Lehel. --- On Thu, 4/19/12, biro lehel <[email protected]> wrote: From: biro lehel <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [one-users] KVM drivers fail to load?

Apart from heavy load, IYHO, could anything else be possibly causing such malfunction? Cheers, Lehel. --- On Thu, 4/19/12, Ruben S. Montero <[email protected]> wrote: From: Ruben S.

We've seen this type of error when OpenNebula is started under heavy-load.... (usually in a VM low on CPU resources) Cheers Ruben On Thu, Apr 19, 2012 at 11:28 AM, biro lehel <[email protected]> wrote: Dear all, In my ONE system, sometimes, after the front-end's startup, I've noticed that the KVM drivers (vmm_kvm and im_kvm) are not able to load. At first I didn't understand what could be causing such ONE malfunction, but soon I tracked back all related errors and found the answer in the very initial part of oned.log, which I copied at the end of this mail. It seems to be a strange issue, since it apparently happens rather randomly, sometimes a reboot of the front-end makes the issue disappear, but sometimes the error just sticks. I'm aware that it might possibly not be an ONE issue. However, I would be extremely grateful if you could provide some hints or point-outs to where should I at least be looking for the cause of this problem. Is this a front-end issue? Is this an issue with the respective host? Both have KVM installed and I've performed virtualizations on both of them (with virsh+qemu) since my ONE infrastructure is up. Are there any logs which I could check to possibly find more detail?
