Moving to RHEL since libvirt is not supported in RHEV1.0 production builds and this problem will need to be addressed in RHEL5.4 release Hum, I have tried to reproduce the same problem using the same kind of setting, except for the network configuration of the guest and when trying for more than 6 times I always got the Welcome to Fedora 10 prompt showing that the iso file was being loaded. So I have no idea how to test this, I can't reproduce the problem myself. Any idea ? Daniel as it is not a 100% reproducible bug,I really can't point out a pretty idea for your request, but I want to check: 1.whether you used the libvirt-0.5.1-3.el5ovirt to check this issue? 2.and you could check with the dumpxml when you're running the guest,even when it could start well, then reboot it via #virsh destroy fedora10 and then #virsh start fedora10,replicate this more times. |
Created attachment 336161 [details] the fedora10.xml I'm using in RHEV Description of problem: with a written xml file define a guest,and then start it,access the guest via vnc,get a Fatal error: fail to boot from CDROM.Back to the host,virsh dumpxml ,have found the <source file='/diretory/to/the/iso/file.iso'/> was missing under the <disk type='file' > Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ovirt-node-image-1.0-1.snap5.2.el5ovirt How reproducible: Frequently not always Steps to Reproduce: 1.define a guest with the attached file # virsh define fedora10.xml 2.# virsh start fedora10 3.# vncviewer $HOSTIP:PORT Actual results: Fatal error: fail to boot,<source file='/diretory/to/the/iso/file.iso'/> was missing Expected results: the xml <source file> brunch will not be missed Additional info:
