Asked by Ashokkumar c

I installed Openstack on ubuntu in hp xw4600 machine . when i start an instance it shows scheduling (gets the ip address)->launching-> shutdown ...i don't know what's the problem ..below is the details

//nova-compute.log file

if I run
$lsmod|grep kvm

kvm_intel 46456 0
kvm 286599 1 kvm_intel

$kvm on
qemu: could not open disk image on: No such file or directory

But VT is enabled in BIOS...

In the compute node, do you have anything in /var/lib/nova/instances/_base ?
