No disk drive was detected when create instance by ISO file
Hi every one,
merry Christmas
I encounter an error that it was very boring.
I want to create and install a new instances in Openstack ocata version by an ISO file. I create a flavor and add my Os iso file to my Openstack environment.
After I start the instance, when it wants to start the installation process this error was appeared :"No disk drive was detected" and installation became failed.
I checked it by several type of Os but this error was appeared again.
Please help how to solve this issue.
Thanks in advance
Your instance may have no disk drive at all, or your ISO image may not have the right driver. Hard to say more with the little information you provide.
The VM image guide recommends creating images outside of OpenStack: https://docs.openstack.org/image-guid....
What information you need to know? Let me know to say
For example: With which command or GUI options did you launch the instance. Flavor details. Does the instance use a volume or ephemeral storage for the root disk. Which hypervisor are you using. Can you launch instances from ready-made images. Output of
openstack server show
.If you have OpenStack admin privileges and access to the compute node, you could check the hypervisor's VM details and see if the ISO contains a disk driver that works with the VM. To me, the most likely cause is an incompatible virtual disk drive preventing the installer from detecting the disk
I select source image and chose a flavor and network and after that launch the instance.
I test both way to use volume and root disk but none of them works.
my hypervisor is KVM and I can launch cirros default image in openstack.
