I tried to run chcon to set SELinux labels on a guestmounted dir and got: chcon: failed to change context of `authorized_keys' to `system_u:object_r:ssh_home_t:s0': Operation not supported I'm guessing that you need to pass 'seclabel' or 'user_xattr' or some such mount option to guestmount to support this. I notice you can pass such options through the -m option to

Hello all, I am having an issue with guestmount in respect to live instances and I was hoping someone might have an idea where I've gone wrong. The following output is from my shell session, if there's any more information needed please let me know and I'll happily provide it. [root at longitude ~]# virt-filesystems -d F16-rawhide/dev/sda2 /dev/sda3 [root at longitude ~]#

[These two patches are for discussion only] Allow FUSE support to be used directly through the API. This is the second commit. In order to make this usable from guestfish, we have to also bind the events API in guestfish. This is the first commit. Rich.

Hello, I have a vmdk having an LV with an ext3 FS where some files have extended attributes and acls set. These do not appear set while accessing them when mounted using guestmount. I do not know if it is easy or difficult to implement this, so I'd like to take your opinion. what I did was changed the default mount options in daemon/mount.c from "ro" to

Hi, I'm experiencing a weird behavior when tried to use guestmount with a XFS formatted volume. I have created a RHEL 8 virtual machine using libvirt. I have retrieved the disk image on a RHEL 7.7 server to mount the image root filesystem and explore it. The command returns an error message: # guestmount -a /disks/jamesdream.qcow2 -m /dev/sda1 /mnt/ libguestfs: error: mount_options: mount

Hello, I've got a strange behavior with guestmount: I've a root directory with mod/owner = drwx------ root root. I cannot change directory to it as a regular user (as normal), but I can list its content (not normally normal) and I can change directory to a subdirectory in it which is mod drwxr-xr-x. E.g: $ mkdir /tmp/mnt $ guestmount --ro -i -a test.qcow2 /tmp/mnt/ $ cd /tmp/mnt $ ls -ld

Hi all, It seems guestmount always fails to flush changes to the mounted qcow2 snapshot. To reproduce this problem: 1. take an external snapshot for a qcow2 2. guestmount the snapshot 3. do some changes, for example: `echo 123 > /test; cat /test`, right now /test can be seen created and containing the right content 4. fusermount -u {mount-point} 5. virt-cat changed file, for the example

Hi, Apparently, guestmount -o allow_other -a "/path/to/raw_file" -m /dev/sda1 "/path/to/mountfolder" is much slower than kpartx -av "/path/to/raw_file" mount /dev/mapper/loop0p1 /path/to/mountfolder (Doing lots of read/write inside the image.) I thought guestmount "only" scripts the above. Seems I was wrong on that. I am currently using

Hello everybody, I am using libguestfs-tools version 1.28.1 in a bunch of bash scripts to make back-ups of the files on a visualisation platform.

However when using the guestmount tool the read suport

Hi. I have a VM with CentOs6.2 on KVM.
