VPS stuck in paused state in SolusVM 2.

When trying to resume VPS there is an error:

# virsh resume 6ddd2953-e7b1-4330-b56d-895779dd147a
error: Failed to resume domain 6ddd2953-e7b1-4330-b56d-895779dd147a
error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'cont': Resetting the Virtual Machine is required

Cause

Bug https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/1198

Resolution

  1. Connect to Compute Resource via SSH
  2. Open VPS configuration for editing:

    # virsh edit UUID

    where UUID is the VPS Hypervisor ID(UUID)

  3. Under <features> section add the following line:

    CONFIG_TEXT: <smm state='off'>

    So it should look like this:

    CONFIG_TEXT: ...
    <features>
    <smm state='off'>
    <acpi/>
    <apic/>
    <pae/>
    </features>
    ...

  4. Save and exit the editor
  5. Restart the VPS at SolusVM 2 > Virtual Servers > VPS
