Nm, turns out qemu-kvm needs to be started with the full path
(/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -hda....) then virsh goes past this error.

Hi,
I am using "qemu-attach" in virsh to attach to an existing qemu process so
I can send monitor commands to it.
the VM is started using
qemu-kvm -net none -hda ./out.img -m 4G -nographic
The VM gets started and the OS boots fine.
Then, I start virsh and do a "qemu-attach 44273" which is the PID of the
qemu process.
virsh # qemu-attach 44273
error: Failed to attach to pid 44273
error: Cannot check QEMU binary qemu-kvm: No such file or directory
qemu-kvm is in /usr/libexec. There is a symlink to it from /usr/bin and
/bin.
The virsh command "create" (for a different VM) works fine.
What could be missing? Are there any debug/log messages/config files that
can shed some light.
Thanks.
