Hi all -
I'm dealing with a libvirt 1.2.5 and Qemu-1.7.1 also Qemu-2.0 (all source
compile,) which somehow isn't seeing any hypervisors when connected to via
virt-manager.
I'm sure I must be doing something wrong but cannot figure out what. My
basic config and current state here in pastebin:
http://pastebin.com/m5M8PfFC
Thanks for any input, this has been baffling.
Best Regards,
Andy

A good thing to try is whether 'virsh -c qemu:///system list --all'
shows anything; debugging a command-line test can be easier than
debugging a gui not listing anything.

pastebin is not permanent. When your posting expires, someone
revisiting this thread in the mail list archives will have no idea what
you were seeing. So I'm reproducing it here:
./configure --target-list=x86_64-linux-user --enable-kvm
--sysconfdir=/etc/libvirt --localstatedir=/var;
This is not the same set of configure options as what is used by the rpm
package shipped in CentOS. As a result, if you have any mismatch
between the distro build and your self-build, things tend not to connect
to the right server.
Libvirt's autogen.sh has a --system flag that sets up the following
configure arguments, which tends to work better out-of-the-box for
replacing a Fedora-based distro build with a self-build:
if test "x$1" = "x--system"; then
shift
prefix=/usr
libdir=$prefix/lib
sysconfdir=/etc
localstatedir=/var
if [ -d /usr/lib64 ]; then
libdir=$prefix/lib64
fi
EXTRA_ARGS="--prefix=$prefix --sysconfdir=$sysconfdir
--localstatedir=$localstatedir --libdir=$libdir"
[root@10-3-1-35 qemu_images]# lsmod

[root@10-3-1-35 qemu_images]# ls -l /dev/kvm

This looks fishy; /dev/kvm should be 0666, not 0660.
[root@10-3-1-35 qemu-1.7.1]# which qemu-x86_64
/usr/local/bin/qemu-x86_64
Again, an issue of self-built binaries not being in the same location as
the distro defaults, so I'm not sure if you have configured everything
to work well with this location.

I understand about it being tough to support over a self-build issue - I
suppose I can only offer reassurance this node is about my twentieth
self-build in my farm right now and all are done according to a script with
the same options. (This is the first one that refused to run. It's sister
server (also an old Dell 2950,) is having the exact same problem, and even
on the CentOS provided builds.) I'm also making sure 1.7.1 / 2.0.0 are
working with my build (they are, on a Poweredge 610, with the same
options.) I am utterly convinced that these two servers are haunted, as the
iDracs on these things also flatly don't work.
Thanks for your response - much appreciated.
