When there are no proper errors, it is difficult to troubleshoot.
Finally the issue is resolved.
It was due to the warning of SMT [1] while installing CentOS.

But now I have half of the CPU threads available for use.
Very strange issue BTW of SMT + CentOS kernel + PackStack

Yeap it's a strange issue, good to hear you get it resolved. /me still didn't get why services were failing to start, No idea how to handle it during deployment, If you can share more details wrt Error, Environment details, how you got to identify that SMT was the issue, etc, maybe you can create a bug so we can see if it's possible to handle the issue in packstack itself if it's packstack related.
