[libvirt] device type 'interface' cannot be attached
I'm using libvirt 0.6.2 on F11 x86_64 and CPU supports hw virtualization. When I try to do 'virsh attach-interface ...' I get an error that the function is not supported by the hypervisor device type 'interface' cannot be attached. Is this command not supported? Or is there something special I need to do? I found it in the man page. -Gerry

I have a private network declared now, thank you Mark. And here is how I am trying to attach an interface: # cat PRIVBR0.xml <network> <name>PRIVBR0</name> <bridge name='privbr0'/> <ip address='172.19.0.1' netmask='255.255.0.0'> </ip> </network> # virsh net-list --all Name State Autostart ----------------------------------------- PRIVBR0 active yes default active no # virsh attach-interface CC bridge privbr0 error: this function is not supported by the hypervisor: device type 'interface' cannot be attached # grep emulator CC.xml <emulator>/usr/bin/qemu-kvm</emulator> I tried the 'attach-interface' both while the domain is running and while shutdown. Neither works. Can anyone see something wrong in what I'm doing here or the reason that 'attach-interface' is failing? -Gerry

I have also tried this as 'attach-device' with the same result: # cat INTERFACE_PRIVBR0.xml <interface type='bridge'> <mac address='00:0c:01:41:50:01'/> <source bridge='privbr0'/> </interface> # virsh attach-device CC INTERFACE_PRIVBR0.xml error: Failed to attach device from INTERFACE_PRIVBR0.xml error: this function is not supported by the hypervisor: device type 'interface' cannot be attached I opened the following bug on this issue: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=537688 -Gerry
