Hello,
I've had an older version of libvirtd/qemu running on Debian Lenny and had
defined 4 virtual servers.
I have the kvm and kvm_intel modules loaded (also compiled from source). I
copied over my 4 config
files from /etc/libvirt/qemu to /usr/local/etc/libvirt/qemu
Now when I start up libvirtd -v:
omega:~# libvirtd -v
20:17:38.877: warning : qemudStartup:566 : Unable to create cgroup for
driver: No such device or address
libvir: Domain Config error : unknown OS type hvm
libvir: Domain Config error : unknown OS type hvm
libvir: Domain Config error : unknown OS type hvm
libvir: Domain Config error : unknown OS type hvm
I'm trying to make sense out of the config files at this point but not very
successful at it. I googled around
a bit to see if others had this error message but most of the ones I found
relate to not having the kernel
modules loaded, which is visible in the 'virsh capabilities' output. Mine
shows:
fredl@omega:~$ which virsh
/usr/local/bin/virsh
fredl@omega:~$ virsh capabilities
<capabilities>
<host>
<cpu>
<arch>x86_64</arch>
</cpu>
<migration_features>
<live/>
<uri_transports>
<uri_transport>tcp</uri_transport>
</uri_transports>
</migration_features>
</host>
</capabilities>
This doesn't list any <guest> sections, so that says it has not found
any 'qemu' or 'qemu-system-*' or 'qemu-kvm' or 'kvm'
binaries in /usr/bin.
I'm guessing that's the problem and I realized that in the
Debian package
the qemu binary is named 'kvm' (may be a symlink) while mine's in
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 2286848 2009-09-26 19:31
/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64
There's problem - you need them in /usr/bin
