Brandon,

Many thanks, next time I know what shall I do :-)

I resolved the issue by disabling the NFS storage and do a new import of a SnapShot of that instance (based on CentOS 7.2) and update that instance to CentOS 7.3 (the instance was my OpenShift Origin master node).

But still I'm not sure if that had something to do with the NFS share for glance or cinder or it has something to do with XFS.

Thanks again!

Cheers,
Arash

Arash,

    I ran into the same issue on all my instances. It appears that during the last kernel updates on the instances it did not complete or was not happy(Not sure exactly what triggered it). I resolved this issue by booting each instance into rescue mode. I did that by running the command  "nova rescue system name". 


   Once the system was in rescue mode I was able to ssh into the instance and run yum update to correct the incomplete kernel install. On some of my instances I had to run yum reinstall kernel which seems to resolve it on all of my instances. I hope this provides you some help as this issue was strange and I was not sure what exactly caused it.


Cheers,
Brandon

Hello together,

After yum update on CentOS 7.2 instance running on Mitaka, I'm getting the following Kernel panic message:
I'm using NFS as storage backend and had a similar problem with CentOS-7-x86_64-GenericCloud-1608.qcow2 image and hat to use CentOS-7-x86_64-GenericCloud-1511.qcow2 image (which worked fine till now).

Has someone faced the same problem with instance updates?

By the way, the kernel panic doesn't happen after yum update on a CentOS 7.2 installation on bare metal.

Thx!
