Description of problem: Under some circumstances, 'vdsm-tool configure --force' does not add sanlock to kvm/qemu groups and 'service vdsmd start' then fails. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.14.1-3.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: Always? Steps to Reproduce: 0. not sure what - probably 'vdsm-tool configure --force', starting some services 1. initctl stop libvirtd 2. service sanlock stop 3. service wdmd stop 4. remove sanlock from qemu and kvm groups in /etc/group 5. vdsm-tool configure --force 6. service vdsmd start Actual results: vdsmd start fails Expected results: should succeed Additional info: If after 'vdsmd start' I run again 'vdsm-tool configure --force', it correctly adds sanlock to these groups and then 'service vdsmd start' succeeds. The actual flow was a failed attempt to install all-in-one on a clean centos machine, due to bug #1063869 , and a later attempt with a fix to that bug failed for the current bug (or so it seems based on the logs). I later reproduced using the steps above, not sure if they are applicable to a clean system.
