关于 “VM resize revert 失败” 问题的分析

作者：张航东

版本: Kilo 2015.1.1

 

1. Problem

When we tested Kilo 2015.1.1 , we met an error (randomly) about resize-revert function. The error finally caused VM goto “Error” status, because of the “VirtualInterfaceCreateException”.

 

We can reproduce the error easily through the following step:

 

Step 1. Lanuch 3-5 VMs:

 

Step 2. Resize these VMs one by one, but not confirm.

 

Step 3. Revert them one by one. And repeat Step 2 to Step 3. Then we can see some VM will stay at “reverting” status , and go to “Error” finally.

 

And, we can see the following “nova-compute.log” with “VirtualInterfaceCreateException”.

  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/nova/compute/manager.py", line 298, in decorated_function
    return function(self, context, *args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/nova/compute/manager.py", line 377, in decorated_function
    return function(self, context, *args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/nova/compute/manager.py", line 355, in decorated_function
    kwargs['instance'], e, sys.exc_info())
