Re: [libvirt] virDomainAttachDevice error during disk hotplug

Hi All, I am trying to do a hotplug of a disk from VDSM (which uses libvirt to get things done). I hit the below error "operation failed: open disk image file failed" comign from virDomainAttachDevice. Some background: 1) The qemu-img create cmd I use (inside vdsm) to create the file being hotplugged is /usr/bin/qemu-img create -f qcow2 -F qcow2 -b /rhev/data-center/000065de-04b8-42e2-986c-2de664708be7/11112d24-4cda-4200-8f6d-a1d8362c70fd/images/22224c45-6504-4ea1-bd24-12340017dd32/3333017d-1278-4bfb-8129-62bded257399 /var/run/vdsm/3333017d-1278-4bfb-8129-62bded257399' (cwd /var/run/vdsm) I even tried using the rel. backing path instead of abs. path as below.. /usr/bin/qemu-img create -f qcow2 -F qcow2 -b ../../../rhev/data-center/000065de-04b8-42e2-986c-2de664708be7/11112d24-4cda-4200-8f6d-a1d8362c70fd/images/22224c45-6504-4ea1-bd24-12340017dd32/3333017d-1278-4bfb-8129-62bded257399 /var/run/vdsm/3333017d-1278-4bfb-8129-62bded257399' (cwd /var/run/vdsm) but hit the same error during hotplug operation 2) qemu-img info /var/run/vdsm/3333017d-1278-4bfb-8129-62bded257399 image: /var/run/vdsm/3333017d-1278-4bfb-8129-62bded257399 file format: qcow2 virtual size: 3.8G (4096000000 bytes) disk size: 196K cluster_size: 65536 backing file: /rhev/data-center/000065de-04b8-42e2-986c-2de664708be7/11112d24-4cda-4200-8f6d-a1d8362c70fd/images/22224c45-6504-4ea1-bd24-12340017dd32/3333017d-1278-4bfb-8129-62bded257399 backing file format: qcow2
