similar to: access VMX config on esxi with virsh

Hi, I have encountered problem running virsh as non-root user. I am using eucalyptus software on top of KVM, eucalyptus requires to run virsh as non-root user. I've found that people had similiar issue posted in the list, but I didn't find the solution. I've tried few things. 1) put user eucalyptus in the libvirt group. 2) even changed owner /var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock to

I'm trying to connect to vbox hypervisor on an Ubuntu 10.04 machine through libvirt java binding (libvirt-java-0.4.6) by simply invoking: Connect conn = new Connect("vbox:///session", false); but I got this exception: libvir: warning : Failed to find the interface: Is the daemon running ? libvir: Remote error : unable to connect to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock':

Usual prologue: we're testing on CentOS 5.5, RHEL subscriptions purchased. Now trying to use virt-v2v to transfer Win2008 Server guest from ESXi host to KVM host. Have enabled SSH on ESXi host, and can connect using esx+ssh://esxhost, but procedure fails because nc isn't found on ESXi. Fair enough. BTW, ESXi looks like a radically cut down RH system (/etc/sysconfig being the give-away)?

Hello, I am trying to use the libvirt Java bindings (version 0.4.7) with libvirt version 0.9.12 to connect to a XenServer hypervisor. Virsh is able to connect to my XenServer, but when I try to do the same thing in Java, it won't connect. Here is the debug output: 2012-06-26 19:48:52.259+0000: 26051: info : libvirt version: 0.9.12, package: 1.fc16 (Unknown, 2012-06-26-11:43:53, flynx)

Hi list, what solution do you use for virtualizzation? thanks in advance.

hello everybody and happy new year! I am a newbie in libvirt use, and I use it mostrly throught OpenNebula. Anyway, I noticed that one of the nodes can be a destination of a livemigrate but not the source. This is the environment: 4 blades nicknamed(*) red3, red9, red10, red11, each with 8 Intel E5506 cores (@ 2.13GHz) running CentOS 5 and KVM as hyoervisor. (*) these are names I

Greetings: I have an issue with connecting to the esx hypervisor from my guest Vm. The purpose of the connection is to obtain host related information (like network, devices etc). I am not sure what is it that rejects the connect at the server side, and what i am missing. I am running lib0.7.5, i have libvirtd running on guest-vm. The host ESX has the ip address a.b.c.d. ? Any

Hi all, Hi have one computer hosting several VM, this particular server is in need of maintenance and has to be shutdown. In order to avoid disrupting the services provided by the VM I intended to migrate the VM to another computer. Computer 1 and 2 do not share any storage. So it is necessary to migrate not only the memory but also any data on the hard-drive. Both computers are running

Dear all, I followed the steps described in the wiki in order to get an Arnadle board running Xen, but I''m having trouble in starting a domU. Let me describe you the steps I followed. Sorry for such a long mail, but I think that a verbose description is necessary so you can point me what I''m doing wrong. I couldn''t boot properly over the network. This is why I

Hi all! I want to assign a physical network card (e100) to a domU: I think Dom0 is ok but domU does not recognize the pci nic. into DomU I don''t know wath should I see: I have nothing in dmesg nor in messages...

Hi, I am exploring extending Kyle Jones' patch (which implements post-transfer filter in receiver.c) to pre-filter or otherwise pre-process the file before it is sent. Kyle Jones patch can be found here <http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&selm=b6f55s%24256q%241%40FreeBSD.csie.NCTU.edu.tw&rnum=6> and the rationale for what I am trying to do here

Hi, Here is the problem (syscall.c, function do_open) on NT, Win2K, WinXP, with stripped "/" for UNC path convention, detected in release 2.5.5, 2.5.6: int do_open(char *pathname, int flags, mode_t mode) { if (flags != O_RDONLY) { if (dry_run) return -1; CHECK_RO } #ifdef O_BINARY /* for Windows */ flags |= O_BINARY; #endif /* some systems can't handle a double / */

I had test the command virsh blockcommit, but it failed, with the libvirt version 1.1.0, and qemu version 1.6.0. Is this feature being developing? Thanks root at cvk-31:/vms/images# virsh -v 1.1.0 root at cvk-31:/vms/images# qemu-img -V qemu-img version 1.6.0, Copyright (c) 2004-2008 Fabrice Bellard usage: qemu-img command [command options] root at cvk-31:/vms/images# virsh blockcommit Vmtest

I see that libvirt 1.1.0 should now support virtualbox 4.2, but I'm having problems getting it to work in OSX. I have built it using homebrew, which now has 1.1.0 in its formulae. The error I get when tying to connect is shown below. Any suggestions for where I should look next? The error about "Failed to find user record for uid 'NNNNN'" is odd. libvirtd *is* started

Hi, I have another question, when I do the blockcommit command and get the result " Top image as the active layer is currently unsupported ", is it being developed? root@cvk-31:/vms/images# virsh blockcommit Vmtest /vms/images/Vmtest1;echo $? error: internal error unable to execute QEMU command 'block-commit': Top image as the active layer is currently unsupported 1 But as I

Hi, on AIX, mkstemp doesn't open a file with the O_LARGEFILE option, so you can't transfer files > 2GB to an AIX machine.

I just built libvirt 0.9.3 from scratch on my Ubuntu 10.10 system. It appeared to build and install correctly. When running a command like 'virsh -c qemu:///session list --all', I get the following: error: Failed to connect socket to '@/home/heath/.libvirt/libvirt-sock': Connection refused error: failed to connect to the hypervisor When looking into it, I realized libvirtd

Hi, I meet a question when reading the libvirt source codes. Could you help me? Coz I plan to link libvirt to a Android Emulator based on QEMU, knowing how the libvirtd connect to qemud is important. I trace the code as following: libvirtd.c contains all the initilization of libvirt daemon, then calling function named qemuRegister to qemu_driver.c which contains three methods:int
