Domain installation does not appear to have been successful.
If it was, you can restart your domain by running:
virsh --connect qemu:///system start virt-tests-vm1
otherwise, please restart your installation.
As per above message, qemu is reporting TM to be not supported by KVM on this
hardware
and thus recommending to turn off cap-htm.
== Comment: #12 - Suraj Jitindar Singh <address@hidden> - 2018-02-26 23:35:02

I don't know what a pseries-bionic is, there is no reference to it upstream.
What you are seeing is expected behaviour as far as I can tell. POWER9
currently does not support HTM for a guest and thus it must not be
turned on, otherwise qemu will fail to start.
HTM can be disabled from the qemu command line by setting cap-htm=off,
as stated in the the error message. The pseries-2.12 machine type has
htm disabled by default and thus with that machine type there is no
requirement to set cap-htm=off on the command line to get qemu to
start.
So depending on what machine pseries-bionic is based on it will be
required to disable htm on the command line (with cap-htm=off) if it
is not disabled by default for the machine.
== Comment: #13 - Satheesh Rajendran <address@hidden> - 2018-02-27 00:05:12 ==
Had a chat with Suraj and here is the summary
1. Currently Power9 DD2.2(host kernel) does not support HTM, so guest should
be booted with cap-htm=off, looks like host kernel patch rework in progress-->
Initial patch, https://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm-ppc/msg13378.html
2. Libvirt does not know about this cap-htm yet and currently it does not set
any default values?
3. pseries-2.12 does have cap-htm=off by default but not the older machine
types, so we see the guest is booting from libvirt with pseries-2.12
4. Once 1 is fixed, we can boot cap-htm=on, I guess by that time pseries-2.12
to be changed to cap-htm=on bydefault.
---> 3. Immediate fix can be Canonical defaults their machine
type(pseries-bioic) to pseries-2.12...
---> Future 1 and 4 to be addressed, not sure about 2?
Needs a mirror to Canonical to address this.
