Hi. I was expecting that qemu-kvm process would connect directly to iSCSI server, but https://libvirt.org/storage.html#StorageBackendISCSI says that it wants symlinks in `/dev/disk/by-path` .

Anyone have an idea where to look next? Thanks, MikeC

Hi! I am trying libvirt on POWERPC64 with the default settings such as selinux enabled. It is all good till I move images out of /var/lib/libvirt/images/. http://libvirt.org/drvqemu.html#securityselinux is saying that "If attempting to use disk images in another location, the user/administrator must ensure the directory has be given this requisite label. Likewise physical block devices
