You can't include password in URI, but if you use SSH to connect remote libvirt host then you may password-less SSH login, for instance: libvirt@client$ ssh-keygen -t rsa [...] Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): [...] libvirt@client$ ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub libvirt@server Good Luck!

Hi all, In live migration using shared memory, there would be a following step to input the password after typing: migrate --live vm_name qemu+ssh://Destination_IP/system. . I wonder if it is possible to include the password in the URI so that the password procedure can be avoided?
