Hi all
I have a Fedora release 17 (Beefy Miracle) with libvirt versions:
libvirt-0.9.11.3-1.fc17.x86_64 virt-manager-0.9.1-3.fc17.noarch
I have allowed non-root user to user libvirt by allowing the user
through polkit
cat /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/cat
50-org.example-libvirt-remote-access.pkla
[Remote libvirt SSH access] Identity=unix-group:virt Action=org.libvirt.unix.manage;org.libvirt.unix.monitor ResultAny=yes ResultInactive=yes ResultActive=yes
After doing the above i am able to connect to virt-manager as non-root
user but unable to create storage pools.
[juno@reserved ~]$ id uid=1001(juno) gid=1001(juno) groups=1001(juno),1002(virt)
[juno@reserved ~]$ virsh Welcome to virsh, the virtualization interactive terminal.
Type: 'help' for help with commands 'quit' to quit
virsh # pool-list error: Failed to reconnect to the hypervisor error: no valid connection error: Failed to connect socket to '@/home/juno/.libvirt/libvirt-sock': Connection refused
virsh # list error: Failed to reconnect to the hypervisor error: no valid connection error: Failed to connect socket to '@/home/juno/.libvirt/libvirt-sock': Connection refused
I have defined pool called virt-images (/virt-images) which the non-root (in this case the username is Juno) user has the read/write
context=staff_u:staff_r:staff_t:s0 permissions
Also tried adding the permissions to unix socket in
/etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf as below:
cat /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf | grep -v ^$ | grep -v ^# unix_sock_group = "virt" unix_sock_ro_perms = "0777" unix_sock_rw_perms = "0770" unix_sock_dir = "/var/run/libvirt"
But the unix socket are created in /var/run/libvirt and not in users
home directory, So how do we make a non-root user virsh commands check the socket created in /var/run/libvirt. It always checks for the socket in user's home directory ?
Any pointers on above would be helpfu.

I believe I ran into this, try using this virsh command as the polkit authorized user
virsh -c qemu:///system
- Trey
Yeah that worked.
Thanks a lot trey
Hi How do i make the below work ? [juno@reserved virt-img]$ virsh -c qemu:///session error: Failed to connect socket to '@/home/juno/.libvirt/libvirt-sock': Connection refused error: failed to connect to the hypervisor Regards Niranjan
