libvirt timing out. parted blocked messages in kern.log

  • 772

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS to host KVM virtual machines. I'm using eucalyptus to manage them and having a lot of issues with libvirt not being able to interface with the KVM components and timing out. This is causing Eucalyptus to think the instances are dead.

Noticing a lot of these messages in the kern.log. Can anyone help me determine what these mean?
