Answer 1

So you can find multiple references to problem like yours all over the google:

1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=698842
2. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=707820

What is strange that all these problems are like at lest 3 years old. Is this an option that you have some old system running on hypervisor? Some people claim 'noacpi' kernel option added to guest kernel may help, worth to try.

Answer 2

Kernel command line option no_timer_check helped me with this (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.5 guest). But this I suspect the OpenStack install was not solid. Need it only in one cluster. See
