Re: Deployment failed with error 'disk drive for /var/lib/nova is not ready or not present'

 

Hi Vladimir/Fuel-Dev,

I tried deleting the environment from Fuel UI and restarted Master node, slave node 1 and slave node 2. Later, I tried deploying nodes freshly from Fuel UI and now I am getting blocked in different place/screen (attached the mail with snapshot).

Failure Message Displayed:
“Failed to retrieve the preconfiguration file
The file needed for preconfiguration could not be retrieved from http://192.168.5.2/cblr/svc/op/ks/system/node-15. The installation will proceed in non-automated mode.
<Continue>”

Kindly let me know whether is this a different issue and the steps to overcome from this issue?

Also placed the diagnostic snapshot at https://www.dropbox.com/s/8ympen7yp704bsi/fuel-snapshot-2014-07-07_06-55-28.tgz

Thanks and Regards,
Gandhi Rajan

Gandhirajan,

The reason why you've got such a message is that discovering agent which works under CentOS found 4 hard drives on the node.

[

{"model":"VirtuaLUN Disk","disk":"disk/by-path/pci-0000:1a:00.1-fc-0x200600110d5e7400-lun-0","removable":"0","size":1048576,"extra":["disk/by-id/wwn-0x600110d0065e74000706000000000000","disk/by-id/scsi-3600110d0065e74000706000000000000"],"name":"sdd"},

{"model":"VLUN P1T0L0","disk":"disk/by-path/pci-0000:1a:00.1-fc-0x200100110da48100-lun-0","removable":"0","size":8388608,"extra":["disk/by-id/wwn-0x600110d001a4810002010000f7bd73d7","disk/by-id/scsi-3600110d001a4810002010000f7bd73d7"],"name":"sdc"},

{"model":"ST600MM0006","disk":"disk/by-path/pci-0000:01:00.0-sas-0x5000c5006804ddc9-lun-0","removable":"0","size":600127266816,"extra":["disk/by-id/wwn-0x5000c5006804ddcb","disk/by-id/scsi-35000c5006804ddcb"],"name":"sdb"},

{"model":"CBRCA146C3ETS0 N","disk":"disk/by-path/pci-0000:01:00.0-sas-0x5000cca00aa59f55-lun-0","removable":"0","size":146814976000,"extra":["disk/by-id/wwn-0x5000cca00aa59f54","disk/by-id/scsi-35000cca00aa59f54"],"name":"sda"}

]
Debian-installer however (other kernel version, other set of drivers and firmware modules) was not able to detect some of those hard drives (VirtuaLUN Disk and VLUN P1T0L0). As a consequence it did not create vm volume group and nova logical volume.
The way how you can fix it is to build debian-installer miniroot with those drivers which suppord your hardware.

This release does not contain fix for this bug. But there is the patch for it in stable/5.0 branch:

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/96774/
You can login into docker container by using dockerctl shell cobbler, download it, then apply it by issuing:

patch -p6 -d /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cobbler/ < file.patch

after this you will need to reprovision your nodes.

We had this bug related to Ubuntu. For some reason there were artifacts left from previous LVM volume groups. Could you please provide version of FUEL you are using?
You can find it by http://<master_node_ip>:8000/api/version<http://%3cmaster_node_ip%3e:8000/api/version>. Please, share the whole JSON.

At first glance you can just skip the fsck and try to proceed w/o this partition.

Subject: Deployment failed with error 'disk drive for /var/lib/nova is not ready or not present'

Hi Fuel Dev,

While deploying the Controller and Compute node, deployment failed with below error in compute node.

“fsck from util-linux 2.20.1
Fsck from util-linux 2.20.1
/dev/sda3: clean, 81860/1712128 files, 432026/6836480 blocks
/dev/sda2: clean, 237/48960 files, 64942/195584 blocks
The disk drive for /var/lib/nova is not ready or not present.
Continue to wait, or press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery”

Note: Controller status is “Ubuntu is installed”, and Compute node is in Offline status since above error was displaying and it hanged at the page.

Kindly let us know the procedure to make Compute node alive for deployment.

Thanks and Regards,
Gandhi Rajan
