Hello Richard,

Ok, I'll give it a shot.

Hello Richard,

Well...  The good news is I get the same error I was getting previously
[1], so at least it's consistent :)
>> libguestfs: trace: add_drive "libvirt-pool/guestfish_test-os"
"format:raw" "protocol:rbd" "server:192.168.0.35:6789
192.168.0.2:6789
192.168.0.40:6789"
>> libguestfs: trace: add_drive = -1 (error)
>> rbd: image name must begin with a '/' at guestfs_test.pl line
53.
Prepending a slash to the device name e.g.:
>> libguestfs: trace: add_drive
"/libvirt-pool/guestfish_test-os"
"format:raw" "protocol:rbd" "server:192.168.0.35:6789
192.168.0.2:6789
192.168.0.40:6789"

does allow me to mount the drive.

This is using:
>> virt-sysprep 1.25.11
So I guess ultimately, it really is the same issue rearing it's head.

Thank you for the assistance.

Best Regards,
Jon A
