[lxc-users] LXD init in Puppet issue

[Benoit GEORGELIN - Association Web4all]

Hi, 

looks like the lxd should be able to run a "zpool list" so the zfs backend will be considered as an option 

https://github.com/lxc/lxd/blob/6cbf82757e96213e73be9a7305803910b09ea5ed/lxd/main.go#L628 

Maybe, using puppet , the zpool list command from LXD failed . 

I would try to get the "zpool list" command running from puppet to be sure it's working on its own trough puppet. 
Or puppet that would run a bash script to get zpool list result . 

Maybe it's just related to your PATH environment variable used with puppet and you zfs binary are not found. 


Cordialement,

Hi, 

Maybe this would ring a bell to someone.... 

I'm in the process of deploying some LXD servers. In our company, we try to puppetize everything we can. Same story for LXD servers. 

My issue is that when I try to run lxd init ...... --storage-backend zfs, it fails, returning 

Notice: /Stage[main]/Nhs_lxd/Exec[lxd init]/returns: error: The requested backend 'zfs' isn't available on your system (missing tools). 

But when I run my command manually, it runs perfectly. And in order to prove that I have the zfs tools installed, I have a zfs pool up and running in that box: 

zpool list 
NAME SIZE ALLOC FREE EXPANDSZ FRAG CAP DEDUP HEALTH ALTROOT 
lxd 79.5G 272K 79.5G - 0% 0% 1.00x ONLINE - 

Any clue?
