Hello, I want to connect to an RBD pool specifying the namespace, but it
doesn’t work. If I connect directly to the pool, it works. For example:
<source protocol="rbd" name="rbd-pool/vm">
But when I try to specify the namespace like this, I cannot connect:
<source protocol="rbd" name="rbd-pool/vm"
namespace="vms">
<source protocol="rbd" name="rbd-pool/vms/vm">
Error al iniciar dominio: error interno: process exited while connecting to

Using the rbd command from the terminal, I can connect both ways; the error
occurs only with libvirt.
