libvirt users - Sep 2013 - problem with sheepdog backend when creating a pool

Hello all,

I am getting a error, when creating a sheepdog pool via libvirt. libvirt is
compiled as:
./configure --prefix=/opt/libvirt --without-xen --with-yajl
--with-storage-sheepdog=/opt/sheepdog

Sheepdog is functional, when creating manually a vdi via "qemu-img"
and than using as disk in libvirt.



The error looks like this:
internal error missing backend for pool type 9

The pool XML:

<pool type="sheepdog">
        <name>mysheeppool</name>
        <source>
          <name>mysheeppool</name>
          <host name='localhost' port='7000'/>
        </source>
</pool>


Kind regards
Giovanni

The options "--with-somthing" generally accept 3 values: yes, no, or
check.

I think you built without sheepdog with the wrong option value. Check 
config.log
will let you know whether sheepdog is included in the building.
