I got this error while I was working with DEVSTACK.
I successfully installed Devstack based on the latest stable version (Pike) and when i tried to launch an instance I got the error message "message: No valid host was found. There are not enough hosts available. code: 500".
I tried to execute the virt-host-validate command with the result shown below:
:~$ virt-host-validate

Any tips to solve the failure got while "Checking if device /dev/kvm is accessible"?
I tried, without success, following the tips in this page "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Installation"
Thanks
