<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the latest master nova code I am keep getting this error “An object of type PciDevicePoolList is required here”<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My nova.conf contains pci_passthrough_whitelist.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When I tried to launch vm after devstack installation the vm was successfully booted.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When I restart the compute node and then try to launch vm I get a failure due to error “An object of type PciDevicePoolList is required here”. (It doesn’t matter if it vm with normal or vm with direct port )<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the debugger I can see the in that one of resources sent to the scheduler is “pci_device_pools” which is a list for example ('pci_device_pools': [{'count': 7, 'vendor_id': u'15b3', 'product_id': u'1004', 'tags': {u'numa_node': None,
u'physical_network': u'physnet1'}}])<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When this resource saved into the database I get the above error.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please note I can reproduce this issue only after I restart the compute node.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Removing the pci_device_pools key from the resources (remove it from self.compute_node in the resource_tracker) fix this issue, but I am not sure that it is the correct way to go.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is anyone see this issue?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Should the pci_device_pools be sent to the scheduler? <o:p></o:p></p>
