Re: [libvirt-users] is qemu-kvm really searched for in /usr/bin for KVM?

reading KVM/QEMU hypervisor driver page here:

and one reads, "KVM hypervisor: The driver will probe /usr/bin for the presence of qemu-kvm ...". on my RHEL 6.5 system, qemu-kvm is in /usr/libexec, not /usr/bin.

That's expected behaviour: on RHEL and its derivatives, the qemu-kvm binary is located in /usr/libexec If you print the contents of your guest XML: $ virsh dumpxml vm | grep emulator you'd notice the <emulator> attribute reflects /usr/libexec location. -- /kashyap
