error: Failed to start domain fedora
error: internal error: URI must be secret:///embed
However, running the domain (with the same disks) from regular URI is
impossible either:
libvirt.git/_build # ./tools/virsh -c qemu:///system start fedora
error: Failed to start domain fedora
error: internal error: no internalFlags support
This is because if the secret is private, then we don't want to allow
clients getting its value. And if running the monolithic daemon, the
conn->secretDrive is initialized to point right to the secret driver.
But when using split daemons, then the connection points to the remote
secret driver and virtqemud is then unable to obtain the secret value.
Unfortunately, I don't see a way around this. I mean other than allow
getting the value on RPC layer.
