Hi David, I can reproduce the issue on libvirt-0.9.10-14.el6.x86_64, it should be a libvirt bug, I'm trying to find a root reason, thanks for your reporting it.

Does anyone known this problem? My commands are as following: -bash-4.1# virsh version Compiled against library: libvir 0.9.11 Using library: libvir 0.9.11 Using API: QEMU 0.9.11 Running hypervisor: QEMU 0.14.1 -bash-4.1# virsh pool-define i1.xml Pool i1 defined from i1.xml -bash-4.1# virsh pool-define i3.xml error: Failed to define pool from i3.xml error: operation failed: Storage source conflict with pool: 'i1' -bash-4.1# virsh pool-define i2.xml Pool i2 defined from i2.xml -bash-4.1# virsh pool-define i3.xml Pool i3 defined from i3.xml and my XMLs are: -bash-4.1# cat i1.xml <pool type='iscsi'> <name>i1</name> <source> <host name='192.168.58.160'/> <device path='iqn.2011-01.com.usi:storage.iscsi1'/> </source> <target> <path>/dev/disk/by-path</path> </target> </pool> -bash-4.1# cat i2.xml <pool type='iscsi'> <name>i2</name> <source> <host name='192.168.58.160'/> <device path='iqn.2011-01.com.usi:storage.iscsi2'/> </source> <target> <path>/dev/disk/by-path</path> </target> </pool> -bash-4.1# cat i3.xml <pool type='iscsi'> <name>i3</name> <source> <host name='192.168.58.160'/> <device path='iqn.2011-01.com.usi:storage.iscsi1'/> </source> <target> <path>/dev/disk/by-path</path> </target> </pool> -- Best Regards ************************************************************************* David Zhu 朱慧 Firmware Engineer Enterprise Storage / R&D Dept.
