Hi All, need some directions with fresh (v1.5.0) Harvester install. My VM got stuck in 'starting' state, so I checked the virt-handler-xxxx log (registry.suse.com/suse/sles/15.6/virt-launcher:1.4.0-150600.5.15.1) and it shows this exact error: https://github.com/kubevirt/kubevirt/issues/14064 but, how do I upgrade (or downgrade it to 1.3.1) kubevirt? Or is there anything else that can be done?

Hi @brash-petabyte-67855, Could you generate the support bundle for investigation?
b
I can provide any info you need to investigate it, including ssh access to the Harvester node. Let me know..

Hi @brash-petabyte-67855, I checked the above and it is the known issue as you mentioned. We are looking for a workaround. I will share here once we have any updates.

Hi @salmon-city-57654 does the new v1.5.1 release includes the fix?
I tried to upgrade to v1.5.1 anyway and the upgrade is stuck on the kubevirt loop crash. Does upgrade needs a VM creation? @salmon-city-57654 please clarify and advise about what is the plan for kubevirt version upgrade. Should I reinstall the Harvester from scratch vs trying upgrading it?
Looks like @salmon-city-57654 is on vacation, is there anybody else who can clarify the kubevirt situation and the path forward?
t
are you able to create ANY vms?
b
No
t
what hardware are using?
b
Gygabyte H262
t
and is it safe to assume you are doing a basic install? how much memory? hdd? and CPUs?
b
yes, all basic, a lot of resources
t
epyc chips?
b
correct
t
how many nodes?
b
1 so far (testing it)
t
ok cool, I was going to recommend it. What vm image are you using?
b
i tried sevaral, ubuntu was one of them for sure
b
the problem is the kubevirt needs upgrade, there is a bug there
t
for 1.5.1 did you do a clean install or upgrade?
b
tried upgrade and it failed (same reason), can try clean install but wanted to make sure kubevirt version is bumped (not to waste time)
t
sorry I misspoke. kubevirt is still 1.4.0 in 1.5.0 and 1.5.1
I would try a clean install anyway.
there was a lot fixed.
b
Going to wait for kubevirt v1.5.1 (I can bet it will fail on the same thing), thanks for clarifying the current version Andy (i totally missed it), appreciate it!

https://github.com/harvester/harvester/issues/8348 sounds like 1.6.0 may get specific backported kubevirt patch

Sorry for the late reply. We will bump the kubevirt v1.5.2 on Harvester v1.6.0

BTW, we have a workaround by reconfiguring the NUMA. Please check the comment https://github.com/harvester/harvester/issues/8182#issuecomment-2989486925
