[libvirt-users] Fwd: virt-manager / ssh (publickey)
Heya,
I will setup for a regular user, but as for connection, as follows :
I opened virt-manager, defined a new connection :
Hypervisor : QEMU/KVM
* Connect to remote host
Method : SSH
Username : root
Hostname : 192.168.1.201
Generated URI : qemu+ssh://root@192.168.1.201/system
Cheers

Whats the connection string your using?
Also Id recommend not using root and giving a normal user account full
libvirt control via policykit. I have an example here,

Good day All,
I have experienced the following ...
I have a rhel 6.1 server running qemu-kvm. I have setup my desktop for
a publickey login (root user) to said server so that I may manage the
server (qemu-kvm) via the desktop with virt-manager.
However, I connect just fine, but cannot create vm's. I get :
"No hypervisor options where found for this connection"
My laptop does run qemu-kvm via virt-manager and so I decided to setup
a publickey login as before and guess what ... I can create vm's. It
seems virt-manager bases the creation of vm's based on the hardware /
software of the machine it is launched from and not the machine it is
connecting to.
Is there a workaround / config change etc that can be done so that
virt-manager uses the hardware / software configuration of the system
it is connecting to ?
Regards
Shaun Glass
