[openstack-dev] XenServer 6 tests failing this morning

Sorry, I should have replied to the list as well.

We debugged this one off-list as the debugging included IP addresses and some private information.

The root cause is actually a VM dying and smokestack continually asking for the SSH key, so we had a constant stream of xenstore-read requests for /local/domain/-1/data/ssh_key.

This is something that Dan is looking at fixing in smokestack, and hopefully we will get more information on what happened with the test domains separately.

So apparently the errors are harmless:

It is probably when nova is polling for the agent to respond.
I assume the image you are using does have the agent present?

But 1.2G worth seems... excessive.
Its worth checking that log rotate is working correctly?
I don't remember what all the defaults are.

Also, is the timeout due to everything slowing up and you running out of Dom0 disk space? Or was there something else going on? I guess clearing out all the logs should give us a bit of time to find the real problem.
