Hi,

On one of my systems I'm having troubles with my RBD storage backend.

At first I thought it was a problem with my code, but after trying the same code on a second machine I'm a bit confused.

The problem is that the storage backend tries to retrieve the value of a secret and base64 decode it, that fails.

My debug log shows:

debug : virStorageBackendRBDOpenRADOSConn:65 : Using cephx authorization
debug : virStorageBackendRBDOpenRADOSConn:75 : Looking up secret by UUID: 322bccea-f2ed-4eae-a7e5-d0793ffb162d debug : virSecretLookupByUUIDString:14128 : conn=0x7fac9c0009c0, uuidstr=322bccea-f2ed-4eae-a7e5-d0793ffb162d debug : virSecretLookupByUUID:14086 : conn=0x7fac9c0009c0, uuid=322bccea-f2ed-4eae-a7e5-d0793ffb162d debug : virSecretGetValue:14486 : secret=0x7fac94000d30, value_size=0x7facad481918, flags=0

It goes wrong at "Found cephx key: <garbage>"

So I figured it had to be something in my code and I went over the code again, but nothing seemed odd.

I tried the same checkout (tag: 0.9.13-rc1) on a different host (also Ubuntu 12.04) and that worked.

The secret and pool XML's are the same, but what I found is that the secret storage on disk seems to go wrong on one machine.

Notice this behavior:

As you can see, the md5sum of the file changes when I set the value of the secret to the same.

I tried the same on the other host:

root@stack02:~# virsh secret-set-value 322bccea-f2ed-4eae-a7e5-d0793ffb162d AQAE+uJPCFpELBAAkTniQvHabBGj0Quwnu2imA==

The md5sum stays the same on stack02.

I verified that stack01 isn't out of disk space or out of inodes, those are in the acceptable values range.

Any suggestions?

For the record, the hosts:

OS: Ubuntu 12.04 x864_64
Kernel: 3.2.0-25-generic
Libvirt commit: 0fce94fe1bd782ac4c33fdd59d13ee37b3437413

Thank you,

Wido
