The over view shows plenty of resources.

Do you deployed openstack on a virtual environment?

In general, "No Valid Host Was Found" error meesage is raised when not enough resources are availabe to launch an instance on compute nodes. In other words, nova-scheduler can not find a compute node with enough resources(vcpu, disk, ram,...) to launch instance.

Make sure that your target compute node has enough virtual resources that your instance requested. For further details, check your scheduler(nova-scheduler.log) and nova-api(nova-api.log) log files and put the error messages in your post. Both files are stored at:

/var/log/nova/

hey there,

you also need to check what image type you are using to launch an instance.

I specifically use qcow2 format as my hypervisor is KVM, so please do check the image you trying to launch is virtual machine supported or not.

They are ISO images, which are supposedly supported.

hello first you have to convert the image file to qcow2 format

This example will convert a raw image file named centos63.dsk to a qcow2 image file.

qemu-img convert -f raw -O qcow2 centos64.dsk centos64.qcow2

To convert from vmdk to raw, you would do:

qemu-img convert -f vmdk -O

this also works for ISO images give a try and let me know

I have an issue like that too. I'm on a fresh install, (2 TB HD, xeon 8 cores, 32GB Ram) and I took the rdo packstack --allinone. When I'm trying to launch a image, I've got "No Valid Host Was Found".

This is the only thing who's going wrong into my nova-scheduler.log;

    2015-03-03 20:23:14.615 997 DEBUG nova.scheduler.filters.retry_filter [req-12faf2c6-ae85-4c08-b39f-16f8f7b28e12 None] Host [u'XXX.XXX.XXX.X', u'XXX.XXX.XXX.X'] fails.  Previously tried hosts: [[u'XXX.XXX.XXX.X'', u'XXX.XXX.XXX.X'']] host_passes /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/nova/scheduler/filters/retry_filter.py:42
2015-03-03 20:23:14.615 997 INFO nova.filters [req-12faf2c6-ae85-4c08-b39f-16f8f7b28e12 None] Filter RetryFilter returned 0 hosts

This is seem to be a common problem if I look on google but there's no solution...
