Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Information will be added to this page as we gather feedback on the StratusLab release from users and system administrators. Please check back often!

I instanciated CentOS6/SL6/RHEL6 VM in the StratusLab Cloud, i used stratus-run-instance with --save option. After the image was saved in the pdisk and got the notification email that the manifest was ready, i deployed the new image. The new VM was RUNNING, but no available network...

  • Before shutting down your VM and saving your image, connect to your VM, and remove /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules file.
  • This problem occurs only with RHEL6 family.

After Launching stratus-run-instance ... i got this Error: Failed to create domain from ../images/deployment.0, unknown OS type hvm ..

  • Check if kvm-intel or kvm-amd depending on you system is loaded, type : lsmod | grep kvm
  • If not, check if you can load it, type for Intel CPU : modproe kvm-intel
  • If you got an error like : Error inserting kvm_intel (/lib/modules/2.6.18-194.26.1.el5/extra/kmod-kvm/kvm-intel.ko): Operation not supported., that's probably mean, your KVM support is disabled in BIOS ?
  • It's depend on your system, in the latest BIOS releases, you can enable/disable support to kvm.
  • To verify if KVM is enabled/disabled in BIOS, type : dmesg | grep kvm.
  • After enabling KVM in BIOS, type : modprobe kvm-intel.
