Description

Hello!

I use rudder agent v5.0.12, all hosts are debian 9

I have noticed a problem with virtuozzo container detected as physical machine, despite the inventory state they are Virtuozzo guest.

I have the problem on 5 containers, while 16 others are correctly detected as Virtual

For correct and incorrect hosts, rudder agent inventory -v return:

verbose: This appears to be an OpenVZ/Virtuozzo/Parallels Cloud Server guest system.

But for incorrect hosts, final inventory contains

<VMSYSTEM>Physical</VMSYSTEM>

While correct hosts contains

<VMSYSTEM>Virtuozzo</VMSYSTEM>

I am unsure of the reason, reseach of same problem on the bugtracker seems to have been solved long time ago.

Both containers are identical, same RAM, same CPU, same uers, etc. I failed to find a links between incorrect hosts, the only difference I see in inventory is the field <UUID> which is missing in the "Physical host" inventory in the <HARDWARE> section.

Full hardware section for incorrect host:

If you have any idea it would be very appreciated!

I am available to answer any question if you need more details

Thanks you!

Was it corrected with the upstream solution in openvz posted in #15492 ?

Hi Victor

To debug this issue, we'd need ideally the full inventory, or if you can't at least the BIOS part, and also the content of

/proc/self/status
, to check if there are lines envID:sth with sth>0

Also, do they both have virsh and/or vzlist in path?

Thank you in advance

Hi Nicolas, François,

I am sorry, it seems I missed the notifications regarding your questions!

I have rechecked my hosts, since the start of the ticket I migrate everything to rudder 6.0 and all openvz container are correctly reporting Virtual now.

I am unsure if this is because the 6.0 or the https://issues.rudder.io/issues/15492 but I guess if the 15492 solved it, I would have closed the ticket at the time as I am also the reporter of 15492 ^^"

Unfortunately I have no physical server available to test a full Virtuozzo reinstall and test on rudder 5, sorry. But I think is may be closed as the problem has disappear in rudder 6?

If you still need the information you ask for Nicolas, tell me I'll extract it.

Hope it helps, again sorry for the delay.

Regards,

Yes, I think we can close it: 5.0 is not supported anymore and 6.0 fix it => it's fixed :)

Thanks for having taken the time to tell us it is now OK.
