Could you, please, point to the most recent commit in https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/nova/ for which procedure described in http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/OpenStack_via_DevStack provide an ability to launch nova instances via horizion or nova CLI. I am aware of bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1425115 and tried to revert commit http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/nova/commit/?id=0696a5cd5f0fdc08951a074961bb8ce0c3310086 right after stack.sh cloned /opt/stack/nova and was able successfully complete devstack install with nova-compute daemon up and running. However, finally attempting to launch Cirros instance I've got following errors in /var/log/libvirt/libxl/instance-00000003.log :- libxl: error: libxl_exec.c:118:libxl_report_child_exitstatus: /etc/xen/scripts/vif-bridge online [-1] exited with error status 1 libxl: error: libxl_device.c:1085:device_hotplug_child_death_cb: script: ip link set vif1.0 name tap7f39f4aa-d1 failed libxl: debug: libxl_event.c:618:libxl__ev_xswatch_deregister: watch w=0x7f9e67ee53c0: deregister unregistered libxl: error: libxl_create.c:1226:domcreate_attach_vtpms: unable to add nic devices Another approach to test driver described in details in bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nova/+bug/1439645 resulted absolutely same errors errors in same log file. Thank you. Boris Derzhavets.
