  • RHEL H cannot start vdsmd

    Posted on

    I am getting this boot.log message:

     

    vdsm: libvirt already configured for vdsm
    Starting iscsid:
    initctl: Unknown job: libvirtd
    vdsm: one of the dependent services did not start, error code 1
     

    Also, when I run "initctl start libvirtd", I get the "Unknown job: libvirtd" error again.

     

    /etc/init/libvirtd.conf  is a symbolic link to /usr/share/doc/libvirt-0.9.4/libvirtd.upstart

     

    If I copy this libvirtd.upstart to replace the link, then libvirtd will start, and vdsm will start also.

     

    On reboot, the symbolic link is recreated and I am back to the same problem.

     

    Does anyone have an idea about all this?

    Thanks
