Comment 1 Dan Kenigsberg 2012-03-25 15:31:03 UTC 
which vdsm version is it?

Could you attach the relevant vdsmcert? I guess the problem is with whomever generated it.

Federico, please see if this is related to http://gerrit.ovirt.org/2657

That's no regression, but an old registration error-handling issue.

Comment 8 Douglas Schilling Landgraf 2012-05-11 14:26:20 UTC 
Hi,

   The libvirt upstart patch didn't work. There is a race condition, where the ca cert is renamed and the daemon is started. So, the scenario is, after the complete RHEV-H boot libvirt can be started *manually* (because the ca cert have been renamed). 

Moving to ASSIGNED to work into a new solution to avoid the race.

Thanks
Douglas
