Daniel P. Berrange a écrit :The daemon libvirtd will always listen for UNIX socket connections. You have to explicitly turn on TCP support, after having setup certificates. If using SSH, then we simply tunnel to the UNIX socket over SSH so all you need do is start the libvirtd daemon on the remote host.Can you rephrase the documentation a little bit then ? It seems to imply you have to do some additional libvirtd configuration for ssh transport usage.
Suggested change to the documentation attached.
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 ?That is a sign that the libvirtd daemon is notrunning on the host in questions.
Well sometimes, but also it can be a sign that virsh is trying to use the wrong Unix socket, or that the Unix socket has the wrong permissions or is otherwise inaccessible. Try:
/usr/sbin/libvirtd --help (which should print out all the paths expected by libvirtd) and: strace virsh -c xen:/// list which should tell you what socket virsh is trying to connect on.In any case this warning can be ignored unless you want to manipulate networks.
