Hi,

I don't have problems starting libvirtd while VMs machines are running. However, last time I tried to launch a kvm machine  when a VirtualBox one was running it failed. With a kvm machine running and trying to start a VirtualBox one I got nice kernel backtraces in my screen and hard freezes. So no, doesnt seem such a good idea to run VBox and kvm in the same box.

dear opennebula community,

recently in one single PC (with ubuntu 12.04 64 bits server as OS), i installed/configured a Cloud system with OpenNebula 3.6.0. The Hypervisor is KVM. But when run /usr/sbin/libvirtd start, got below error:

2012-10-31 04:30:47.283+0000: 20014: info : libvirt version: 0.9.8
2012-10-31 04:30:47.283+0000: 20014: error : virPidFileAcquirePath:345 : Failed to acquire pid file '/var/run/libvirtd.pid': Resource temporarily unavailable

it looks like the the libvirt daemon doesn't work. it is much appreciated if anyone can help with this.

moreover, a long time before setted up the Cloud system, in the same PC i have Oracle VirtualBox installed and several VM OS instances created under VirtualBox. the operation of these VM instances are fine.

the user:group of Oracle VirtualBox and its VM instances is different from that for the Cloud system (includes openebula, kvm, libvirt etc)

is it ok to have two VM hosts installed in the same PC, as described above? could this cause the above error when run /usr/sbin/libvirtd start.

thanks for your hep.

thanks,
david su
