** Also affects: tempest Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo! Engineering Team, which is subscribed to OpenStack Compute (nova). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1371298 Title: libvirt: AMI-based Linux instances /dev/console unusable Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova): In Progress Status in Tempest: New Bug description: In Linux, the last console= option listed in /proc/cmdline becomes /dev/console, which is used for things like rescue mode, single-user mode, etc. In the case of AMI-based Linux images, libvirt defines the "serial" console (tied to the console.log) last, which means a crashed instance ends up being unrecoverable Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upload the AMI/AKI/ARI images attached to this bug into Glance and tie them together (if how to do this is not common knowledge, I can follow-on with exact steps) 2. Boot an instance against the image. It has been altered so that it will crash on startup, believing there is filesystem corruption Expected Behaviour: A "Press enter for maintenance (or type Control-D to continue):" prompt on the interactive console (Spice/VNC/etc.) Actual Behaviour: The aforementioned prompt appears in the libvirt console.log, and the instance is effectively bricked.
