Hi,
I have an old system. The guest there is defined with:
<os> <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-q35-rhel8.2.0'>hvm</type> </os>
When I try to migrate this guest to a new system I get the error:
error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'blockdev-add': Failed to connect socket: Permission denied
You seem to be using migration with non-shared storage. Could you please post the full set of parameters you are passing to the migration API? (or the full virsh commandline arguments) This error seems to be a problem with setting up the disk migration connection and (as also Daniel pointed out) has nothing to do with the machine type.
