Comment 37 for bug 1560965

Well, I didn't find any differences among releases which might be critical.

 - nova-compute 16.0.4-0ubuntu1~cloud0
 - libvirt-daemon 3.6.0-1ubuntu6.2~cloud0
 - qemu-kvm 1:2.10+dfsg-0ubuntu3.4~cloud0

And still I'm not getting what's going wrong... Maybe I missed something, could you check my config, please?
