Re: [OPENSTACK] VMs don't start on host machine reboot (Grizzly over Ubuntu 13.04)

 

Any suggestions on debugging this issue ? As I mentioned below, the command
qemu-img shows information where the file format is qcow2 whereas the image
used in this instance is ISO. Is this a bug or am I missing something ?
Thanks,
-Nikhil
