[Bug 1864279] Re: Unable to attach more than 6 scsi volumes

Fri Feb 12 09:54:53 UTC 2021

>From libvirt package POV this is fixed in >=Focal (20.04) and the only
release left affected is Bionic (18.04, libvirt 4.0).

Fixing it in Bionic is IMHO worth to consider but low prio (if users can
influence, they can set an address to 8-16  and it works, only the
default-no-address use case is broken).

Never the less, fixing it in Bionic won't help your cases on UCA with
5.0/5.4 - those would have to be done by the UCA team. Therefore I'm
adding back a cloud-archive task.

Bug description:
  Scsi volume with unit number 7 can not be attached because of this
  libvirt check:
  https://github.com/libvirt/libvirt/blob/89237d534f0fe950d06a2081089154160c6c2224/src/conf/domain_conf.c#L4796

  Nova automatically increase volume unit number by 1, and when I attach 7th volume to vm I've got this error:

  After patching libvirt driver to skip unit 7 I can attach more than 6
  volumes.
