Hi all, I would like to follow up on an issue I had a couple of months ago with nova libvirt. During my tests with SUSE Cloud 5 there was a problem launching Xen VMs, the wrong bootloader was selected for images with version >= SLE12. There was a service request for that issue, ServiceRequestID 10969858451. The proposed fix was this piece of code in python-nova/virt/libvirt/driver: ---cut here--- + if CONF.libvirt.virt_type == 'xen': + guest.os_kernel = '/usr/lib/grub2/x86_64-xen/grub.xen' ---cut here--- This worked just fine, but now that I use Openstack (Mitaka) Cloud, I run into the same issue. So everytime I update my packages, I first have to patch the driver.py on my compute nodes. ---cut here--- compute1:/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/nova/virt/libvirt # diff -u /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/nova/virt/libvirt/driver.py.dist /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/nova/virt/libvirt/driver.py --- /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/nova/virt/libvirt/driver.py.dist 2016-05-07 20:35:01.000000000 +0200 +++ /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/nova/virt/libvirt/driver.py 2016-05-27 14:01:11.210389066 +0200 @@ -4369,6 +4372,7 @@ if virt_type == "xen": if guest.os_type == vm_mode.HVM: guest.os_loader = CONF.libvirt.xen_hvmloader_path + guest.os_kernel = '/usr/lib/grub2/x86_64-xen/grub.xen' elif virt_type in ("kvm", "qemu"): if caps.host.cpu.arch in (arch.I686, arch.X86_64): guest.sysinfo = self._get_guest_config_sysinfo(instance) ---cut here--- I know there is an existing bug for this [1], but unfortunately I'm not allowed to view any content, so I don't know how to proceed further.
