I tried 'virsh list', and the command hangs. At first i thought it was because of KVM, since the vm does not support it. I remember having the same problem with diablo, but it would only result in error when the instance was being launched on the compute service. So i changed "libvirt_type=kvm" to "libvirt_type=qemu".<div>
<br></div><div>However, the problem still remains: "virsh list" still hangs and compute refuses to leave the state "XXX".<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, May 16, 2012 at 12:51 PM, Day, Phil <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:philip.day@hp.com" target="_blank">philip.day@hp.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
