Public bug reported: I've been setting up a Mitaka Openstack using the cloud archive running on Trusty, and am having problems working with EFI enabled instances on ARM64.
I've done some work with wgrant and gotten things to a stage where I can boot instances, using the aavmf images. However, when I tried to delete a VM booted like this, I get an error: libvirtError: Requested operation is not valid: cannot delete inactive domain with nvram I've included the full traceback at https://paste.ubuntu.com/15682718/. Thanks to a suggestion from wgrant again, I got it working by editing nova/virt/libvirt/guest.py in delete_configuration() and replacing self._domain.undefineFlags(libvirt.VIR_DOMAIN_UNDEFINE_MANAGED_SAVE) with self._domain.undefineFlags(libvirt.VIR_DOMAIN_UNDEFINE_MANAGED_SAVE | libvirt.VIR_DOMAIN_UNDEFINE_NVRAM). I've attached a rough patch. Once that's applied and nova-compute restarted, I was able to delete the instance fine. Could someone please investigate this and see if its the correct fix, and look at getting it fixed in the archive? This was done on a updated trusty deployment using the cloud-archives for mitaka. $ dpkg-query -W python-nova python-nova 2:13.0.0~b2-0ubuntu1~cloud0 Please let me know if you need any further information. ** Affects: nova (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: canonical-bootstack ** Attachment added: "nova-libvirt-fix-delete.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1567807/+attachment/4628612/+files/nova-libvirt-fix-delete.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1567807 Title: nova delete doesn't work with EFI booted VMs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nova/+bug/1567807/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
