[one-users] VM creation stuck in "pending" state

[Upendra Sharma]

Hi Tino,

something similar is happening to me as well.

the VM template looks is shown below.

==== vm template ==================

NAME   = TPCW-L

CPU    = 1

MEMORY = 2000

REQUIREMENTS = "HOSTNAME=\"obelix20\""

RANK         = FREECPU

OS     = [ bootloader=/usr/bin/pygrub ]

DISK   = [

  source   = "disk-vm1.img",

  target   = "xvda",

  readonly = "no" ]

DISK   = [

  source   = "disk-tpcw-db.img",

  target   = "xvda5",

  readonly = "no" ]

NIC    = [ NETWORK = "Public VLAN" ]

RAW    = [

  type  = "xen",

  data  = "vcpus=1"

]
==============================






The main problem is this: my vm-template has a specific 
REQUIREMENTS .. i.e. HOSTNAME. That particular host has a no VMs running
 on it and a 3 G of RAM free on it. The list of hosts on the cluster 
are:




$ onehost list
  ID NAME              CLUSTER  RVM   TCPU   FCPU   ACPU    TMEM    FMEM STAT
   4 obelix20          cluster1          0    400      399     400        4G       2.9G    on

the machine simply sits on the pending state.

When I comment out the REQUIREMENTS line, it works fine and schedules it on one of the machines.

I could not find a reason in any of the logs to find the reason.



thanks,
-upendra
