[Bug 907152] Re: Error: unable to connect to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock', libvirtd may need to be started: No such file or directory

[James Page]

Hi Paul

Thanks for you work on this bug.

I understand what this bug is trying to resolve but the proposed patch
to the upstart configuration will break the nova-compute-xcp package
which provides nova-compute-hypervisor but does not depend on libvirt-
bin.

In this type of deployment a nova-compute node will never start...

Un-subscribing ubuntu-sponsors for the time being.

Please re-subscribe this team when you feel that you have a suitable
patch - or even better propose a merge against lp:~ubuntu-server-
dev/nova/essex!

Thanks

James

Title:
  Error: unable to connect to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock', libvirtd
  may need to be started: No such file or directory

Status in “nova” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  It looks like there is a race condition between nova-compute-kvm and
  libvirt. We should move the init script into nova-compute-kvm and add
  a dependency on libvirt.  I'll see about updating the package to
  handle this
