The ovirt engine is failing to start virtual machines on EL based nodes. I think I have found the failure mode.
The engine log shows: 2012-01-26 16:01:45,200 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.CreateVmVDSCommand] (pool-5-thread-48) FINISH, CreateVmVDSCommand, return: WaitForLaunch, log id: d1649a2 2012-01-26 16:01:45,953 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.vdsbroker.DestroyVDSCommand] (QuartzScheduler_Worker-89) START, DestroyVDSCommand(vdsId = e7df9be0-47a0-11e1-80f3-00144f8d7c32, vmId=6c84897b-4d2b-461b-ab64-b30bf9ff7b22, force=false, secondsToWait=0, gracefully=false), log id: 1269b196 2012-01-26 16:01:45,997 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.vdsbroker.DestroyVDSCommand] (QuartzScheduler_Worker-89) FINISH, DestroyVDSCommand, log id: 1269b196 p012-01-26 16:01:46,020 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.VdsUpdateRunTimeInfo] (QuartzScheduler_Worker-89) Running on vds during rerun failed vm: null 2012-01-26 16:01:46,028 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.VdsUpdateRunTimeInfo] (QuartzScheduler_Worker-89) vm winxp running in db and not running in vds - add to rerun treatment. vds kvmsrv03 2012-01-26 16:01:46,042 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.VdsUpdateRunTimeInfo] (QuartzScheduler_Worker-89) Rerun vm 6c84897b-4d2b-461b-ab64-b30bf9ff7b22.
