[Bug 1963553] Re: Openstack Fails to Launch Instances "/usr/bin/qemu-system-arm' does not support virt type 'kvm; "

 

This doesn't sound a Nova project-specific bug, rather a config issue
for a specific OS/arch.

AFAIK, you need to use CentOS AArch64 images for the RPi.
Anyway, closing the bug.

Title:
  Openstack Fails to Launch Instances "/usr/bin/qemu-system-arm' does
  not support virt type 'kvm; "

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Environment - Openstack Victoria on Ubuntu 20.0.4 on Raspberry Pi 4B,
  1 controller, 2 compute, 1 storage nodes.

  Been troubleshooting an Raspberry Pi 4B Openstack setup. I have all my
  openstack components running and verified but when trying to launch an
  instance it errors out (seems to be from libvirt):

   Emulator '/usr/bin/qemu-system-arm' does not support virt type
  'kvm'\n", '\nDuring handling of the above exception, another exception
  occurred

  Per these instructions
  (https://docs.openstack.org/nova/victoria/configuration/config.html)
  as a fix I tried I've tried the following options in nova.conf in all
  variations with no difference in outcome (Restarted Libvirt and Nova-
  Computer service after each change as well)

  cpu_mode = (default)

  cpu_mode = host-passthrough

  virt_type = kvm

  virt_type = qemu

  I'm at a loss for what to do as to my knowledge the only way
  information is passed through to libvirt is through nova.conf, and
  appreciate any assistance.
