Public bug reported: libvirt-bin is not started correctly.
It tries to resolve the hostname when starting but at that time ther eis no network and no DNS available. It fails with error 6 and starts again immediately. After several attempts init disables the job completely: Jun 28 14:33:05 natta libvirtd: 14:33:05.885: error : virGetHostname:1838 : internal error getaddrinfo failed for 'natta': Temporary failure in name resolution Jun 28 14:33:05 natta init: libvirt-bin main process (1332) terminated with status 6 Jun 28 14:33:05 natta init: libvirt-bin main process ended, respawning Jun 28 14:33:05 natta libvirtd: 14:33:05.892: error : virGetHostname:1838 : internal error getaddrinfo failed for 'natta': Temporary failure in name resolution Jun 28 14:33:05 natta init: libvirt-bin main process (1338) terminated with status 6 Jun 28 14:33:05 natta init: libvirt-bin respawning too fast, stopped We have removed the "bogus" hostname entry from /etc/hosts poiting to a 127.0.0.2 address. Our network DNS resolves hostnames to their "real" IP addresses. If libvirt-bin needs to resolve a hostname to an IP address it should wait for the network when starting. The libvirt-bin upstart script may need a dependency.
