Therefore, I describe it from there. On a new install, starting from minimal text only, I add the pattern for Xen VMM and add manually libvirt. After installing a full update is performed. To get libvirtd starting, I have to add manually a user qemu to the system, which is annoying but okay. In dom0 Xen runs with the xend tool set, I am not using xl. I use virt-manager to setup a new domain, however the problem is not related to virt-manager. If a domain is setup manually, I run into the same problem. xm start d1 prepares the domain and enters the pause state waiting for devices to appear. After a long time out, the xm start gives up. Here are the relevant lines from xend.log: [2014-04-26 22:59:48 1129] DEBUG (DevController:144) Waiting for 51712.

This one is complaining about vbd, since I disabled the vif statement in the configuration. With a vif, the start bails out on the vif device. My rpm -qa list and lsmod list are added as attachments. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Prepare a domain d1 2. xm update d1 3. xm start d1 Actual Results: Unprivileged domain is not starting Expected Results: Get unprivileged pv domains starting properly -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
