The tunneled method fails though. I'm trying to debug this now. The first thing which strikes me as odd is in the qemuMonitorTextMigrate function: 1173 if (qemuMonitorCommand(mon, cmd, &info) < 0) { (gdb) p cmd $4 = 0x7fffdc0e6ef0 "migrate -d -b\"unix:/var/run/libvirt/qemu/qemu.tunnelmigrate.src.4c5c75b9-decc-41c9-9296-20ca5bd5c355\"" (gdb) n 1180 if (strstr(info, "fail") != NULL) { (gdb) n 1181 qemuReportError(VIR_ERR_OPERATION_FAILED, (gdb) p info $5 = 0x7fffe8001210 "migration failed\r\n" Not sure if there's supposed to be a space between the migrate and the -d option, and no space after the -b.
