Hi
How do i make the below work ?
[juno@reserved virt-img]$ virsh -c qemu:///session
error: Failed to connect socket to '(a)/home/juno/.libvirt/libvirt-sock':
Connection refused
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
Regards
Niranjan

I'm not familiar with using "qemu:///session", to make an intial
connection I always do something like this...
# Local connection
$ virsh -c qemu:///system
# Remote
$ virsh -c ssh+qemu:///treydock@host.tld/system
What are you trying to achieve with "session" ?
Also I noticed you mentioned using a path other than
/var/lib/libvirt/images for the pool, be sure the SELinux contexts are
correct. Should be virt_image_t, you can set that for a special path
like so...
$ semanage fcontext -a -t virt_image_t "/virt-img(/.*)?"
$ restorecon -R /virt-img
