Rocky 9 and CS 4.17.1.0

I’m running Cloudstack 4.17.1.0 and for unknown reasons, I’m having issues running Rocky 9. Kernel begins to boot and then it looks like it fails on loading initrd and I get a kernel oops. Just curious if this is a known issue or if there’s a work around. I tried using the qcow2 image from Rocky as well and just using the install iso to create a new image. Same result.

Rocky 8 works fine.

Anyone running Rocky 9?

Thanks
-jeremy

Jeremy and Robert,

Out of interest, which cpu profile are you passing through to the guest?

I've seen a lot of reports with 9.x and kernel panics when certain CPU
flags aren't being passed through, in particular x16 lahf popcnt sse4_1
sse4_2 ssse3.
Do you have the ability to set your guest.cpu.mode to "host-passthrough"
for the purposes of testing?

You'd do that by editing /etc/cloudstack/agent/agent.properties on your
host.
Look for guest.cpu.mode and replace it with =
guest.cpu.mode=host-passthrough
Then restart the agent.

How many cores and how much ram are you using for this VM?

I can confirm that the cpu mode is host-passthrough

Hi Rohit,

I can report that installing Oracle 9.1 on a VM results in a kernel panic right off the bat. I hear there were some major changes between EL8 and 9. My SaSS customers are holding off on upgrades as well because of potential concerns.

Thanks

For EL9, can you try Alma Linux 9 or Oracle Linux 9 for guest VM? I have had bad experiences with Rocky Linux 9 in terms of stability and mirror/repo accessibility even though Rocky Linux 9 claims to be EL9 compatible.

I’m running Cloudstack 4.17.1.0 and for unknown reasons, I’m having issues running Rocky 9. Kernel begins to boot and then it looks like it fails on loading initrd and I get a kernel oops.  Just curious if this is a known issue or if there’s a work around. I tried using the qcow2 image from Rocky as well and just using the install iso to create a new image. Same result.

Rocky 8 works fine.

Anyone running Rocky 9?

Jeremy,
for rocky9 you'll have to wait till 4.18 I think. It will be supported as
host and MS, I am not even sure if support for el9 guestosses will make it
in.
