[Bug 595388] [NEW] starting kvm guests with libvirt on virthost startup doesn't wait till all dependencies are available

[Lars]

Public bug reported:

Hallo!

One of our kvm guests has its system on a SAN (AoE) device.
This aoe device is available about 2 minutes after startup.
The libvirt startup script tries to start the guest earlier.
The guest dies with:

qemu: could not open disk image /dev/etherd/e9.2: No such file or
directory

Is it possible to test for this dependency or insert a wait command?

Thanks
Lars
