Hi All,
Just had a rather new experience in that starting a VM worked but the kernel entered grub2 rescue console due to the fact that something was wrong with its virtio-scsi disk. The message is Booting from Hard Disk .... error: ../../grub-core/kern/dl.c:266:invalid arch-independent ELF maginc. entering rescue mode...
Doing a CTRL-ALT-Del through the spice console let the VM boot correctly. Shutting it down and repeating the procedure I get a disk problem everytime. Weird thing is if I activate the BootMenu and then straight away start the VM all is OK. I don't see any ERROR messages in either vdsm.log, engine.log
If I would have to guess it looks like the disk image isn't connected yet when the VM boots but thats weird isn't it?
Additional after testing snapshot functionality, I noted that not once I had this problem but as soon as I removed all snapshots it returned. Joop
