system VM has no ips

Dear all,

Trying to get an advanced networking Cloudstack setup.

                My environment is a xenserver 7.1 with 4 nics in 2 bonds (Bond_01 and bond_23, those are set as labels on the network labels below).
                Network setup is:
                Management range (bond_01) -  10.10.10.10-20 (untagged)
                Public range(bond_01)  - 10.10.10.220-230 (untagged)
                Guest vlans (bond_23) - 3500 to 3510

                When the system VMs start up the cloudstack menu says "starting" forever.
[cid:image002.jpg@01D45754.F399A870]                From the Xenserver I can see that vms are up and when I logging there are actually no interfaces.













                This is just a test environment so no other configs are involved.
                I wonder why is this happening. Basic networking option works without issues.

                Btw is there any guide regarding System VMs behavior ?
                Most of the guides explain what they do but not how they do it (how are their IPs assigned when started up? Which of the interfaces is used for communication with the management server etc..).
                Thank you.

Best regards,
Jordan Kostov

Hi Yordan,

System VMs will get an IP from those networks and will get assigned a gateway from the public range, have you tried seeing the logs of management server, perhaps you could find a hint there. Also what version of Cloudstack are you running.

There’s a really good  wiki page which you could refer to troubleshooting SSVMs: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/SSVM%2C+templates%2C+Secondary+storage+troubleshooting<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/SSVM,+templates,+Secondary+storage+troubleshooting>

Regards,
Bobby.

Hello Rohit,



                Sorry for the late response.

                ACD mysql db was reset using this method -> https://gist.github.com/CrackerJackMack/2972401

                And then updated 4.11.1 -> 4.11.2



                The issue was still present. Eventually the root cause a miss configuration in the host value in Global settings.

                It was saying “Localhost” instead of the ip of the MGM server.



                I have not edited this setting and the 2 actions I have done that may have affected the value are:

-          Changing the ip of the management server  (change ip of the interface than change the ip in db.properties).

-          Reseting cloudstack db multiple times as per the article above.



After changing the host value from to the ip of the mgm server all secondary vms were running as expected.

                Thanks to Paul Angus for the tip!





Best regards,

Jordan

Hello Bobi,

	Thank you for the links.	Yes I am based in Sofia. 

	I am quite new to ACS but I really like it so far and as soon as I learn to handle it properly I hope to turn it into production at some point. So there is a lot of room for testing and giving feedback :).

Best regards,
Jordan

HI Jordan,

There’s an RC2 vote going on for 4.11.2, here’s the packages:

Additional information:

For users' convenience, I've built packages from c64591bdd2fd677c9a0ca1970d61d1be9f222326 and published RC2 repository here:
http://packages.shapeblue.com/testing/41120rc2/

4.11.2 systemvm templates are available from here:
http://packages.shapeblue.com/testing/systemvm/

Please test them and if give some feedback to community about your overall experience with it, it would be awesome!

BTW, are you based in Sofia? We’ve been thinking about having a CloudStack user group with some other contributors and techs in Sofia, would that be interesting to you?

Thanks,
Bobby.

                Network setup is:

                Management range (bond_01) -  10.10.10.10-20 (untagged)

                Public range(bond_01)  - 10.10.10.220-230 (untagged)

                Guest vlans (bond_23) - 3500 to 3510



                When the system VMs start up the cloudstack menu says "starting" forever.

[cid:image002.jpg@01D45754.F399A870]                From the Xenserver I can see that vms are up and when I logging there are actually no interfaces.


























                This is just a test environment so no other configs are involved.

                I wonder why is this happening. Basic networking option works without issues.

                Btw is there any guide regarding System VMs behavior ?
                Most of the guides explain what they do but not how they do it (how are their IPs assigned when started up? Which of the interfaces is used for communication with the management server etc..).

                Thank you.

Dear all,



Trying to get an advanced networking Cloudstack setup.



                My environment is a xenserver 7.1 with 4 nics in 2 bonds (Bond_01 and bond_23, those are set as labels on the network labels below).

                Network setup is:

                Management range (bond_01) –  10.10.10.10-20 (untagged)

                Public range(bond_01)  - 10.10.10.220-230 (untagged)

                Guest vlans (bond_23) – 3500 to 3510



                When the system VMs start up the cloudstack menu says “starting” forever.
