Hi,
I am trying to run a VM (via VDSM) with hugepages and I am getting this error:
"virNetClientProgramDispatchError:170 : internal error hugetlbfs filesystem is not
mounted"
hugepages is mounted with the proper permissions (36:36) in case of vdsm user,
this code use to work..., now I am at version: libvirt-0.9.4-12.el6.x86_64
output of few commands:
# tree /dev/hugepages/
/dev/hugepages/
`-- libvirt
`-- qemu
# ll -n /dev/hugepages/libvirt/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 36 36 0 Oct 3 12:46 qemu/
The user ID '36:36' looks a little bit strange. Did you set that
yourself ? When libvirtd starts up, it should detect the mount
point and then create the $MOUNT/libvirt/qemu directory itself,
setting up the correct userid/groupid which i'd expect to be
107:107 on Fedora/Rhel
In addition, was the hugetlbfs mount point actually mounted at
the time libvirtd was started up ? If you mount hugetlbfs after
starting libvirtd, you will need to restart it to enable hugetlbs
in libvirtd.
