I installed CloudStack 4.1.0 on Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS (precise) server. Initially I wanted to use Ubuntu 13.04 (raring) but CloudStack only provides packages repository for Ubuntu 12.04. I used KVM as the hypervisor hosts, also running Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS, and use Ceph RBD (RADOS Block Device) for the primary storage for CloudStack.
The default libvirt version on Ubuntu 12.04 doesn’t support Ceph RBD as primary storage. I followed this instruction from Wido to get libvirt version 1.0.2, which can support RBD storage pool support. However, I had an issue whereby the libvirt is reporting wrong RBD storage pool’s disk usage / allocation information.
root@hv-kvm-02:~# virsh pool-info bab81ce8-d53f-3a7d-b8f6-841702f65c89
Name: bab81ce8-d53f-3a7d-b8f6-841702f65c89
UUID: bab81ce8-d53f-3a7d-b8f6-841702f65c89
State: running
Persistent: no
Autostart: no
Capacity: 5.47 TiB
Allocation: 34819.02 TiB
Available: 5.47 TiB
As a result, VM instance creation failed because the RBD storage pool is reported as having insufficient disk space and CloudStack wasn’t able to find a suitable /available storage pool.

After consulting the CloudStack users’ mailing list and logging a bug report on Apache’s JIRA here without any success, I managed to resolve the problem by compiling and installing the latest version of libvirt. This is how I did it on my KVM hypervisor hosts running on Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS servers:
1. Download the latest libvirt version (1.1.0) from libvirt’s FTP site, and extract it:
2. Install the required packages for compiling libvirt:
apt-get install librbd-dev
apt-get install libpciaccess-dev
3. Compile libvirt with RBD storage support, and set the required prefixes to overwrite the existing default libvirt on the Ubuntu server:
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --with-storage-rbd
4. After the compilation has been completed, check the logs visually to confirm that RBD storage support is enabled, then do the installation:
make
make install
5. Restart the KVM hosts after the installation is done, and then verify that the latest version of libvirt has been installed:
libvirtd --version
virsh --version
The command “virsh pool-info” is now showing the correct “ allocation” amount:
root@hv-kvm-02:~# virsh pool-info d433809b-01ea-3947-ba0f-48077244e4d6
Name: d433809b-01ea-3947-ba0f-48077244e4d6
UUID: d433809b-01ea-3947-ba0f-48077244e4d6
State: running
Persistent: no
Autostart: no
Capacity: 5.47 TiB
Allocation: 328.00 B
Available: 5.47 TiB
CloudStack will then be able to utilise the RBD storage pool when creating VM instances.
