[ovirt-users] Problem starting up new VM created from a template.

Hello,

I'm having troubles with a new VM created from a template. I did run
sysprep in the windows 2008R2 machine before creating a template from it. I
have already used this template multiple times and even this time it
initially started up just fine but not a second time.

This is what I see that is troublesome in the vdsm.log file when I try to
start up the VM.

Does any one have any Ideas what's going on or how to solve it ?
