Hi,
Strarting from a VM with two IDE disks, I'm trying to add a third IDE disk.
I get this Duplicate ID error :
VM serv-bd-dev1 is down. Exit message: internal error process exited while connecting to monitor: qemu-kvm: -drive file=/rhev/data-center/5849b030-626e-47cb-ad90-3ce782d831b3/1429ffe2-4137-416c-bb38-63fd73f4bcc1/images/f9ca88d8-e29f-4b11-9aae-b9330b5f8cdf/ed91505a-a219-42af-9915-e5ffc79918f9,if=none,id=drive-ide0-1-1,format=qcow2,serial=f9ca88d8-e29f-4b11-9aae-b9330b5f8cdf,cache=none,werror=stop,rerror=stop,aio=native: Duplicate ID 'drive-ide0-1-1' for drive .
When disabling the second one and starting only with disk 0 et the new one (so start with 2 disks), it is booting well.
Is it by design?
No. It sounds like a collision between the address of your third ide disk and the ide cdrom. Would you post vdsm.log from vmCreate command until the reported error message? It would let us understand if the bug is in Vdsm or Engine. Dan.
