Dear All,

Our vGPU installation is progressing, though the VM is failing to start.

2018-05-16 22:57:34,328+0100 ERROR (vm/1bc9dae8) [virt.vm] (vmId='1bc9dae8-a0ea-44b3-9103-5805100648d0') The vm start process failed (vm:943)
Traceback (most recent call last):

    dom.createWithFlags(flags)

    ret = f(*args, **kwargs)

    return func(inst, *args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 1099, in createWithFlags
    if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainCreateWithFlags() failed', dom=self)
libvirtError: Cannot get interface MTU on '': No such device

That's the specific error, some other information. It seems the GPU 'allocation' of uuid against the nvidia-xx mdev type is proceeding correctly, and the device is being created by the VM instantiation but the VM does not succeed in going up with this error. Any other logs or information relevant to help diagnose?

Regards,
Callum
