Hi, I currently have 3 compute nodes on edge site1 where i am trying to launch vm's. When the VM is in spawning state the node goes down (openstack compute service list), the node comes backup when i restart the nova compute service but then the launch of the vm fails. nova-compute.log 2023-02-26 08:15:51.808 7 INFO nova.compute.manager [req-bc0f5f2e-53fc-4dae-b1da-82f1f972d617 - - - - -] Running instance usage audit for host dcn01-hci-0.bdxworld.com from 2023-02-26 07:00:00 to 2023-02-26 08:00:00. 0 instances. 2023-02-26 08:49:52.813 7 INFO nova.compute.claims [req-3a1547ea-326f-4dd0-9127-7f4a4bdf1e45 b240e3e89d99489284cd731e75f2a5db 4160ce999a31485fa643aed0936dfef0 - default default] [instance: 0c62c1ef-9010-417d-a05f-4db77e901600] Claim successful on node dcn01-hci-0.bdxworld.com 2023-02-26 08:49:54.225 7 INFO nova.virt.libvirt.driver [req-3a1547ea-326f-4dd0-9127-7f4a4bdf1e45 b240e3e89d99489284cd731e75f2a5db 4160ce999a31485fa643aed0936dfef0 - default default] [instance: 0c62c1ef-9010-417d-a05f-4db77e901600] Ignoring supplied device name: /dev/vda.
