Hi all,
I am trying to connect to esx vi libvirt 0.10.2.
virsh # connect esx://hostname?no_verify=1&auto_answer=1
error: Failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: internal error Could not find HostSystem with name '(null)'
could you give me a hint, what could be a reason for that problem
in a debug log of libvirt I see:
14447: debug : virAuthGetConfigFilePath:77 : Checking for readability of
'/root/.libvirt/auth.conf'
14447: debug : virAuthGetConfigFilePath:86 : Checking for readability of
'/etc/libvirt/auth.conf'
14447: debug : virAuthGetConfigFilePath:95 : Using auth file '(null)'
14447: error : esxVI_LookupManagedObjectHelper:4854 : internal error
Could not find HostSystem with name '(null)'
14447: debug : do_open:1180 : driver 1 ESX returned ERROR
Regards

Hi all,
I am trying to connect to esx vi libvirt 0.10.2.
According to line number for esxVI_LookupManagedObjectHelper in the
debug log this looks like libvirt 0.10.2.1 actually.
virsh # connect esx://hostname?no_verify=1&auto_answer=1
error: Failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: internal error Could not find HostSystem with name '(null)'
First of all you found an error in the bug reporting here. The error
message should read just 'Could not find HostSystem'.
Anyway, the error says that libvirt couldn't find the HostSystem
object for that ESX server. This is quite unexpected.
What ESX server version are you using? Is this a standalone server? Or
is it managed by a vCenter server? Is it part of a cluster?

Hi,
its vCenter, Version 4.1 Update 3.
I am trying to connect from Centos6,
libvirt-0.10.2-18.el6_4.4.x86_64
libvirt-client-0.10.2-18.el6_4.4.x86_64

Hi,

libvirt-client-0.10.2-18.el6_4.4.x86_64
Is the host name in the URI referring to this vCenter? In this case
you need to use a vpx:// style URI:
virch -c vpx://vcenter-server/datacenter/esx-server?no_verify=1&auto_answer=1
See http://libvirt.org/drvesx.html#uriformat for more details.
But actually libvirt should complain if you use a esx:// URI to
connect to a vCenter server.
