[Bug 1457168] Re: [Hyper-V] kvp, vrss, fcopy daemons no longer in init

 

It looks like these items were added to linux-cloud-tools-common at some
point, but I do not see 1457168 in the changelog.

Confirmed with:

$ dpkg -L linux-cloud-tools-common | grep etc

Observe:
/etc/init/hv-fcopy-daemon.conf
/etc/init/hv-vss-daemon.conf
/etc/init/hv-kvp-daemon.conf

(It also places a number of files in /sbin, which are scripts to call
the right versions of the daemons)

$ dpkg -L linux-lts-vivid-cloud-tools-3.19.0-37

Observe:
/usr/lib/linux-lts-vivid-cloud-tools-3.19.0-37/hv_fcopy_daemon
/usr/lib/linux-lts-vivid-cloud-tools-3.19.0-37/hv_vss_daemon
/usr/lib/linux-lts-vivid-cloud-tools-3.19.0-37/hv_kvp_daemon

Title:
  [Hyper-V] kvp, vrss, fcopy daemons no longer in init

Status in linux-lts-utopic package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in linux-lts-vivid package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  hv-fcopy-daemon.conf hv-kvp-daemon.conf and hv-vss-daemon.conf are
  missing from /etc/init and therefore these critical daemons are no
  longer launched on Hyper-V installations that use linux-virtual-lts-
  utopic or other instances of the HWE kernel.

  Because Azure now uses the HWE kernel, in the generic 12.04 and 14.04
  images I see the file /etc/init/hv-kvp-daemon.conf, but executing this
  fails to start the service (because negotiation of these services is
  done in the first minute after an image is started) On the 12.04 image
  I can install the proper linux-tools-`uname -r` and linux-cloud-
  tools-`uname -r`, but it seems that perhaps the init script is not
  pointing to the correct binary.

  Normally /usr/sbin/hv_kvp_daemon is a wrapper to find
  /usr/sbin/hv_kvp_daemon-`uname -r`, but that latter file is never
  installed. On Ubuntu 12.04 I do see that "/usr/lib/linux-lts-trusty-
  tools-3.13.0-51/hv_kvp_daemon" is installed and works, but I'm not
  sure yet what's missing to get the upstart service working.

  Please correct the init scripts for the HWE kernels on 12.04 and
  14.04.
