SC> wbemcli:Cim(1) CIM_ERR_FAILED: A general error occurred that SC> is not covered by a more specific error code:"For provider SC> Virt_DevicePool the library name was empty. Check provider SC> registered location". This usually happens because the CIMOM is unable to load some dependent libraries for the providers. Where did the .so files get installed? I think the default is /usr/local/lib/cmpi for Pegasus if you don't specify a location. Figure out where your Pegasus providers directory is and set that with PROVIDERDIR like this: ./configure PROVIDERDIR=/usr/lib64/cmpi Then clean and rebuild/reinstall your tree. Also, make sure that the above path is set in your linker config (i.e. /etc/ld.so.conf). -- Dan Smith IBM Linux Technology Center Open Hypervisor Team email: danms@us.ibm.com
