Description Fabian Deutsch 2013-09-05 05:58:20 UTC 
Description of problem:
vdsmd doesn't come up cleanly after registering Node with Engine and rebooting the Node.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
vdsm-4.12.1-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Node with vdsm: http://fedorapeople.org/~fabiand/node/ovirt-node-iso-3.0.1-1.0.20130903draft.vdsm.fc19.iso
2. Configure network and register with Engine
3. Set host into maintenance mode 
4. Reboot the Node

Actual results:
vdsmd is in a failed state

Expected results:
vdsmd starts successfully

Additional info:
This issue is only present on F19 and not on EL6.

Restarting the service manually after rebooting works (so vdsmd will come up normally).

Also running
<alonbl> vdsm-tool libvirt-configure
<alonbl> vdsm-tool sanlock-check-service
brings up the service fine, alon's notes:
<alonbl> so I guess this is a race between services at startup.

ybronhei's notes:
<ybronhei> check if ksmtuned is there and run
<ybronhei> check if another instance of vdsm runs
<ybronhei> check also that sanlock is installe

Comment 4 Fabian Deutsch 2013-09-05 10:46:38 UTC 
Let me point out that this bug prevents Engine from using Node.

A workaround is to manually restart vdsmd.

This should be fixed before the release, otherwise we've got an non-working Engine-Node combination.
Comment 5 Mike Burns 2013-09-05 11:17:01 UTC 
While there is a workaround available, it's an ugly workaround (login to ovirt-node, drop to a shell, run service vdsmd restart or systemctl restart vdsmd.service).  

If we can get this fixed in short order, then I'd rather hold the release a couple days.  

Thanks,

Mike

After additional testing, applying a manual workaround for bug 999664 results in vdsmd coming up correctly after reboot.

Manual workaround on node:

mount -o remount,rw /
edit /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-vdsmd to remove ksmtuned from CONFLICTING_SERVICES
persist /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-vdsmd
