[Bug 1509747] [NEW] Intermittent lxc failures on wily

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Frequently, when creating an lxc container on wily (either through --to
lxc:#, or using the local provider on wily), the template never stops
and errors out here:

[ 2300.885573] cloud-init[2758]: Cloud-init v. 0.7.7 running 'modules:final' at Sun, 25 Oct 2015 00:28:57 +0000. Up 182 seconds.

[FAILED] Failed to start Update UTMP about System Runlevel Changes.
See 'systemctl status systemd-update-utmp-runlevel.service' for details.

Attaching to the container and running the above command yields:

I have seen this on ec2 and in canonistack.  The canonistack machine is available for further debugging.  Ping me for access.
