[Bug 1621121] Re: VM fails to start when vcpu placement='auto'

 

I'm passing through old bugs, lacking further discussion and any
"forcing" argument why that would be needed in Xenial (which would be
feature enablement in SRU, so that would have to be a very good
argument) I'm closing the Xenial task to clean up.

Also if needed users have the option to get this in Xenial by using the
Cloud-Archive Ocata or Pike.

** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu Xenial)
       Status: Incomplete => Won't Fix

  looks more like a configuration issue, suspecting that libvirt package
  is configured without numa support

  Can Canonical confirm if the libvirt package provides numa support?
