Re: Unable to create a New VM - Error message: Unable to start instance due to Unable to get answer that is of class com.cloud.agent.api.StartAnswer

Hi Simon,

The following work was done but unfortunately the problem is not fixed:


on management server:

service cloudstack-management stop


on the host:

service cloudstack-agent stop

service libvirtd restart

service cloudstack-agent start


on management server:

service cloudstack-management start

Regards,
Nezar.

Re: Unable to create a New VM - Error message: Unable to start instance due to Unable to get answer that is of class com.cloud.agent.api.StartAnswer

Posted by Nezar Madbouh <ne...@ipscape.com.au>.
Hi Ilya,

Please see answers to your questions below:


Primary Storage is configured to use local disk on the Hosts:

Below are examples of 2 entries in "Infrastructure --> Primary Storage" in
UI.

Name: eqx-cs-cmp-01.ipscape.com.au Local storage
Server: 10.61.153.22
Path: /var/lib/libvirtd/images (this is local disk on the host)
cluster: eqx-cs-cluster-01
Scope: Host


Name: eqx-cs-cmp-02.ipscape.com.au Local storage
Server: 10.61.153.23
Path: /var/lib/libvirtd/images (this is local disk on the host)
cluster: eqx-cs-cluster-01
Scope: Host

and so on for all 16 Hosts


Agent logs for eqx-cs-cmp-12
-------------------------------------------

logs are pasted in
http://pastebin.com/tiMMhEzW





Mount points:
--------------------

Below are mount points from 2 Hosts:

[root@eqx-cs-cmp-12 agent]# mount
/dev/mapper/vg_root-lv_root on / type ext4 (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
/dev/sda1 on /boot type ext4 (rw)
none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw)
sunrpc on /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw)

(rw,noatime,nfsvers=3,proto=tcp,hard,nolock,intr,noac,actimeo=0,addr=10.61.154.10)




[root@eqx-cs-cmp-01 ~]# mount

Your help is much appreciated,
Nezar.

Re: Unable to create a New VM - Error message: Unable to start instance due to Unable to get answer that is of class com.cloud.agent.api.StartAnswer

Posted by Nezar Madbouh <ne...@ipscape.com.au>.
Hi Ilya,

Adrian Sender provided us some support today and he managed to find the
problem. The problem is with the compute and disk offerings. We created new
compute offering and created a new VM from it and it worked.

Thank you very much for your help.

Regards,
Nezar.

Re: Unable to create a New VM - Error message: Unable to start instance due to Unable to get answer that is of class com.cloud.agent.api.StartAnswer

Posted by ilya <il...@gmail.com>.
Here is what i need to understand, if you are using SharedMountPoint,
then /mnt/storage must be preset on all KVM hosts in a persistent manner
(i.e. fstab).

However, if you are using NFS, you can just let cloudstack manage the
NFS mount points by adding the storage as NFS type.

Re: Unable to create a New VM - Error message: Unable to start instance due to Unable to get answer that is of class com.cloud.agent.api.StartAnswer

Posted by ilya <il...@gmail.com>.
Can you goto primary storage in cloudstack UI, is this what you have
defined for your NFS Server?

"SharedMountPoint","host":"localhost","path":"/mnt/storage"

If so, please use IP or FQDN instead..

http://pastebin.com/mfiADsJc


Your help is much appreciated.

Nezar.

Re: Unable to create a New VM - Error message: Unable to start instance due to Unable to get answer that is of class com.cloud.agent.api.StartAnswer

Posted by ilya <il...@gmail.com>.
Here is how i would troubleshoot this:

1) ssh to MS host, run

tail -f /var/cloudstack/management/management-server.log | grep -i
StartVMCmdByAdmin

2) on cloudstack UI, press start on the VM and watch the tail log

3) on the tail log, you should see a StartVirtualMachine api call show
up with job ID. For example:

> 2016-04-15 03:41:57,193 DEBUG [o.a.c.f.j.i.AsyncJobManagerImpl] (API-Job-Executor-24:ctx-7892387a job-291575) Executing AsyncJobVO {id:291575, userId: 157, accountId: 2, instanceType: VirtualMachine, instanceId: 7648, cmd: org.apache.cloudstack.api.command.admin.vm.StartVMCmdByAdmin, cmdInfo: {"id":"7648","response":"json","sessionkey":"mMJsduS9KLKApqH4dPpIlGZdt1Y\u003d","ctxDetails":"{\"com.cloud.vm.VirtualMachine\":7648,\"com.cloud.uservm.UserVm\":7648,\"com.cloud.network.router.VirtualRouter\":7648}","cmdEventType":"VM.START","expires":"2016-04-15T03:51:57+0000","ctxUserId":"157","signatureversion":"3","httpmethod":"GET","uuid":"7648","ctxAccountId":"2","ctxStartEventId":"314416"}, cmdVersion: 0, status: IN_PROGRESS, processStatus: 0, resultCode: 0, result: null, initMsid: 345051337894, completeMsid: null, lastUpdated: null, lastPolled: null, created: null}

Each task in cloudstack spins up its own job, in this case its *job-291575*

4) now execute
> grep -A3 -B3 job-291575 /var/cloudstack/management/management-server.log | tee job-291575.log
> grep job-291575 /var/cloudstack/management/management-server.log | grep via | head -1

you should see a response like so,

> 2016-04-15 03:41:59,259 DEBUG [c.c.a.m.ClusteredAgentAttache] (Work-Job-Executor-42:ctx-b2c4af6b job-291575/job-291576 ctx-0988152e) Seq 441-4181310779036795138: Forwarding Seq 441-4181310779036795138:  { Cmd , MgmtId: 345051337894, via: 441(my-kvm-host01.example.com), Ver: v1, Flags: 100011, [{"com.cloud.agent.api.routing.DhcpEntryCommand":{"vmMac":"06:fe:4e:00:12:ad","vmIpAddress":"10.10.27.178","vmName":"ol6-test-ilya1","defaultRouter":"10.10.27.1","defaultDns":"10.17.27.166","duid":"00:03:00:01:06:fe:4e:00:12:ad","isDefault":true,"executeInSequence":false,"accessDetails":{"zone.network.type":"Advanced","router.guest.ip":"10.10.27.166","router.ip":"169.254.0.238","router.name":"r-7301-VM"},"wait":0}}] } to 345051337893

We are looking for this line "via: 441(my-kvm-host01.example.com)"

SSH to my-kvm-host01.example.com, and copy the
/var/log/cloudstack/agent.log to pastebin

also copy job-291575.log to pastebin

I'll try to have a look, though when i get chance.


Also paste the output of mount command on kvm host in question. I'm
suspecting one of your storage pools maybe bad.

Lastly, what distro are you running for KVM?

Regards
ilya

Re: Unable to create a New VM - Error message: Unable to start instance due to Unable to get answer that is of class com.cloud.agent.api.StartAnswer

Posted by Shweta Agarwal <sh...@accelerite.com>.
Hi Nezar,
When no VMs are running in the Vlan ,Router will only shut down but not deleted. If you want to delete the router delete it manually. And then when you will restart any VM in that Vlan a new Router will be created.

Thanks

Hi Ilya,

I shutdown all the VMs in Pre-prod Environmnet expecting the Pre-prod
Virtual router to be deleted automatically because no VM is running on this
vlan but it wasn't deleted.

Am I right to expect the VR to be deleted automatically if no VM is running
in that vlan?

Thanks,
Nezar.

Re: Unable to create a New VM - Error message: Unable to start instance due to Unable to get answer that is of class com.cloud.agent.api.StartAnswer

Posted by Nezar Madbouh <ne...@ipscape.com.au>.
Hi Ilya,

I shutdown all the VMs in Pre-prod Environmnet expecting the Pre-prod
Virtual router to be deleted automatically because no VM is running on this
vlan but it wasn't deleted.

Am I right to expect the VR to be deleted automatically if no VM is running
in that vlan?

Thanks,
Nezar.

Re: Unable to create a New VM - Error message: Unable to start instance due to Unable to get answer that is of class com.cloud.agent.api.StartAnswer

Posted by Nezar Madbouh <ne...@ipscape.com.au>.
Hi Ilya,

I have run the script and it didn't return any results:

[root@eqx-cs-mgt-01 ~]# ./async_jobs.sh
[root@eqx-cs-mgt-01 ~]#


I also ran the command inside mysql:

mysql> SELECT id, user_id, account_id, instance_type, instance_id, job_cmd,
job_cmd_info, job_dispatcher, job_pending_signals  FROM cloud.async_job
where job_status=0 and job_dispatcher not like "pseudoJobDispatcher";
Empty set (0.00 sec)

your help is much appreciated,
Nezar.

Re: Unable to create a New VM - Error message: Unable to start instance due to Unable to get answer that is of class com.cloud.agent.api.StartAnswer

Posted by ilya <il...@gmail.com>.
It appears you have pending jobs that are not letting you go through.

Usually stop and starting management service should be enough.

However, try running this script from your management server to show us
what you have running in async_job table.
