Instance create fails with `unsupported configuration: native I/O needs either no disk cache or directsync cache mode, QEMU will fallback to aio=threads`
Issue
We are currently having problems when we instantiate on new and updated servers to RHEL 7.3, the rest of region works correctly.
The error it shows us is the following:
libvirtd[8385]: unsupported configuration: native I/O needs either no disk cache or directsync cache mode, QEMU will fallback to aio=thread
Checking the server we see that when libvirtd generates the instance through XML the parameter appears:
io=' native''.
