Hi, I'm trying to run Vdsm with Python 3, which exposes various Python 3
incompatibilities in Vdsm code. I'm currently semi-stuck on Vdsm
crashing very shortly after startup with:
Panic: Error initializing IRS
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/vdsm/vdsmd.py", line 95, in
serve_clients
irs = Dispatcher(HSM())
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/vdsm/storage/dispatcher.py", line 46,
in __init__
self._exposeFunctions(obj)
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/vdsm/storage/dispatcher.py", line 56,
in _exposeFunctions
if hasattr(funcObj, _EXPORTED_ATTRIBUTE) and callable(funcObj):
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/vdsm/storage/sp.py", line 85, in
__getattr__
raise se.StoragePoolNotConnected
vdsm.storage.exception.StoragePoolNotConnected: Storage pool not connected: ()
That wouldn't be a problem by itself, errors are expected in Python 3
experiments. However the problem is that this is often the *only* error
I receive.
I've found out that HSM() call spawns threads, which apparently don't
have chance to report their errors before the panic above kills Vdsm.
For instance, there was a string-byte mismatch in running iscsiadm
scanning commands. Only after I added time.sleep to the end of
HSM.__init__, I got an error + traceback from that and could see what's
wrong. That worries me a bit, because it might mean that if some
initialization external commands are not fast enough, Vdsm may not be
able to start.
After fixing some problems, I get the panic again, even with the sleep
at the end of HSM.__init__, and again without any other error. It's
difficult to proceed in such a situation -- any tips what to look at or
to look for are welcome.
FWIW, my vdsm.log now ends with
