There's your problem. 'qemu-kvm' on CentOS 6 does not support live disk operations, because it was derived from RHEL 6 where Red Hat did not choose to backport the functionality unless you upgraded to RHEV. Quoting from an earlier mail from Paolo Bonzini: Luckily, since you are using CentOS you do not really care about official Red Hat RPMs, and you can get the packages here (well, this is for CentOS 7, I'm not sure if there is a similar repo for CentOS 6): http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.5/rpm/el7Server/ This yum repository file will help: [qemu-kvm-rhev] name=oVirt rebuilds of qemu-kvm-rhev baseurl=http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.5/rpm/el7Server/ mirrorlist=http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/mirrorlist-ovirt-3.5-e... enabled=1 skip_if_unavailable=1 gpgcheck=0 Drop it in /etc/yum.repos.d/qemu-kvm-rhev.repo and install qemu-kvm-rhev with yum. All features will be available. It would be simpler to have a CentOS SIG build this, but it hasn't happened yet. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
