Hello. I'm trying to use ssh tunnel for remote hypervisor access. However, I'm can't make it working... [guillaume@oberkampf ~]$ LC_ALL=C virsh --connect xen+ssh://root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx list --all libvir: error : could not connect to xen:// error: failed to connect to the hypervisor error: no valid connection On the remote host: [root@acacia ~]# libvirtd --verbose libvir: error : could not connect to xen:// It seems the error lies between libvirtd and the local hypervisor. And indeed, local usage of virsh with xen:// URLs fail: [root@acacia ~]# LC_ALL=C virsh -c xen:// list libvir: error : could not connect to xen:// error: failed to connect to the hypervisor error: no valid connection Using xen:///, instead of xen://, as explained at http://libvirt.org/uri.html, is OK, despite a few error messages: [root@acacia ~]# LC_ALL=C virsh -c xen:/// list libvir: Remote error : No such file or directory libvir: warning : Failed to find the network: Is the daemon running ? Id Name State ---------------------------------- 0 Domain-0 running 1 barman blocked 2 cocktail blocked 3 mojito blocked >From the documentation, it seems xen:// transport implies TLS, and requires an host name, so it is quite normal it fails here (I didn't generated any certificate). But how can I force libvirtd to use xen:/// transport then ? I don't see anything related in libvirt configuration documentation at http://libvirt.org/remote.html ? Neither about how to configure it for listening on unix transport, as explained in svn+ssh transport requirements on the same page (but I presume it is the default) ? Also, from where does those error and warning come ? [root@acacia ~]# LC_ALL=C virsh -c xen:/// list libvir: Remote error : No such file or directory libvir: warning : Failed to find the network: Is the daemon running ? [..] I'm using libvirt 0.3.2 on mandriva 2007.1, with xen 3.1.0. -- Guillaume Rousse Moyens Informatiques - INRIA Futurs Tel: 01 69 35 69 62 -- Libvir-list mailing list Libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
