Hi Ghada, The output of following commands on compute-0 have been attached: sudo lscpu sudo virsh capabilities My controllers are wolf pass servers and have skylake processors. I'm reinstalling the standard 0322 ISO image and this time I will use wolf pass servers as compute node.

This may relate to BUG "VM can't send packet through vhostuser port due to missing numa settings in domain xml": https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bug/1820378 According to him, after cutting over to nova master, the NUMA topology and PCI device info has been removed from nova. Before nova master, StarlingX uses nova stage which has NUMA topology. Some detailed information are listed below: * PCI Affinity dependency on Nova NUMA topology - Zhipeng o This affinity agent could not get both pci_device info and numa info of server from nova. o In nova stage version, we added below two for server. o server["wrs-res:topology"] o server["wrs-res:pci_devices"] o In nova master, no these attributions for server. o For topology, I can see that there is a patch of adding numa topology pending for merge o https://review.openstack.org/#/c/621476 Add server sub-resource topology API o Next step - Zhipeng to investigate alternative implementations that don't have dependencies on Nova.

Does it have skylake processors? Can you also double-check that you have Sub-NUMA Clustering disabled in the BIOS? On a wolfpass, the BIOS setting is at: Enter Setup
Advanced Memory Configuration Memory RAS and Performance Configuration Sub-NUMA Cluster <Disabled>
