Re: Set permissions and ownership of disk image created by vol-upload

Hi Martin, Thanks for the guidance. Ultimately I determined that this was an AppArmor issue restricting access to /var/lib/libvirt/images and /var/lib/libvirt/qemu. I was able to add access to these directories in /etc/apparmor.d/local/abstractions/libvirt-qemu and then successfully start a VM (no longer getting the "access denied" message). Thanks, Andrew ________________________________ From: Martin Kletzander Sent: Wednesday, November 20, 2024 8:31 AM To: Andrew Martin Cc: users(a)lists.libvirt.org Subject: Re: Set permissions and ownership of disk image created by vol-upload On Tue, Nov 19, 2024 at 07:01:39PM +0000, Andrew Martin wrote: Use virsh vol-create <pool> <volume.xml> where the volume xml looks something like this (adjust to your liking): <volume> <name>perms.img</name> <capacity unit='M'>100</capacity> <target> <path>/var/lib/libvirt/images/perms.img</path> <format type='raw'/> <permissions> <mode>0755</mode> <owner>77</owner> <group>77</group> </permissions> </target> </volume> And then use virsh vol-upload to populate the volume with what you want. That ought to be enough. HTH, Martin
