I am getting following error with tunneled migration command: {{{ $ virsh --connect qemu:///system migrate --verbose --p2p --tunnelled 32 qemu+ssh://kvm-03/system error: operation failed: Failed to connect to remote libvirt URI qemu+ssh://kvm-03/system }}} However I am able to perform other virsh command like list, pool-list, dumpxml using the same remote libvirt URI: {{{ $ virsh --connect qemu+ssh://kvm-03/system list }}} Also, the hypervisor native migration is working fine with following command: {{{ $ virsh --connect qemu:///system migrate 31 qemu+ssh://kvm-03/system }}} I am confused why remote URI worked for some of the commands but not for the migrate command. Am I missing something with the tunneled migration command or libvirtd/qemu configuration file? Any help would be appreciated. Software versions on both systems: * CentOS 6.2 * Libvirt 0.9.4 * qemu-kvm 2:0.12.1.2-2.209.el6_2.4 -- Shantanu
