In Openstack of our lab,  guestfs can be launched successfully within one SLES12 instance.  While when our SLES12 instance is deployed in customer's Openstack,  we see guestfs cannot be launched.  And also the error message is ambiguous :

Or is there any method for us to retrieve further debugging information ?   We have enable debug option in guestfish command : "guestfish -x -v --ro -a ./7f489bbb-a0c3-42bc-9f55-35db948d5575?"

What does libguestfs-test-tool say?
