Hi, all!
I'm trying to set up a VM installation using an ISO, but I am not able
to boot a VM with a cdrom and a disk. Basically, what I want to do is
outlines here https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/BootFromISO .
Since I'm running on XenServer I made sure that an SR with the
appropriate flags exists (type:iso , i18n-key: local-storage-iso), like
shown here :
http://docs.openstack.org/juno/config-reference/content/introduction-to-xen.html#xenapi-boot-from-iso
This is what happens when I'm trying to boot an instance:
glance image-list

nova boot --flavor m1.small --image CentOS-6-boot-iso --nic
net-id=ebaa400e-bb8a-4318-aedb-778b46c78a88 --security-group default
--key-name demo-key centos6-iso-instance
See attached compute.log for the error
It seems like it's trying to delete a VBD but fails because it's still
plugged into the nova-compute node. I verified it and I found it created
and plugged just as the error suggested.
I came across an similar earlier bug report regarding plugging and
unplugging VBDs which looks like it's fixed, or is it?
Any ideas?
