Eduardo,

Thanks for the help! I encounter an issue when trying to connect the
remote VIOS/IVM server:

1. The used virsh is built from 0.9.12 source code with ./configure
--prefix=/usr --with-phyp; make; make install;

2. When I try to connect the VIOS server with ssh, it succeeds with
output looks like:
root@dennis-:/home/libvirt-0.9.12# ssh padmin@10.30.56.60
padmin@172.30.56.60's password:
     Last unsuccessful login: Wed Jul  4 21:22:22 CDT 2012 on ssh
from 10.16.10.94
Last login: Wed Jul 4 21:23:14 CDT 2012 on /dev/pts/1 from 10.16.10.94
     [vios:/home/padmin]

3. My virsh runs in the local ubuntu 12.04 system, and I've executed
the following command:
     sudo usermod -G libvirtd -a padmin

4. When I try connect the VIOS server with virsh, issue occurs:

root@dennis-:/home/libvirt-0.9.12# virsh -c phyp://padmin@10.30.56.60
     Enter padmin's password for 10.30.56.60:
     error: An error occurred, but the cause is unknown
     error: failed to connect to the hypervisor

root@dennis-:/home/libvirt-0.9.12# virsh -c
phyp+ssh://padmin@10.30.56.60
padmin@10.30.56.60's password:
     error: End of file while reading data: bash: sh: command not
found: Input/output error
     error: failed to connect to the hypervisor

     some times the last command also shows error message like:
root@dennis-:/home/libvirt-0.9.12# virsh -c
phyp+ssh://padmin@10.30.56.60
padmin@10.30.56.60's password:
     error: Cannot recv data: bash: sh: command not found: Connection
reset by peer
     error: failed to connect to the hypervisor

Is there any tips about this?
Sorry for the late reply.

You must connect to the HMC instead of the VIOS - VIOS commands will be
transparently passed along the HMC tunnel. You also must specify the
managed system name in the command line:

  $ virsh -c phyp://user@[hmc|ivm]/managed_system

I'll try to post a patch this week to update the documentation. Any issues
please feel free to ping me in the IRC as well.


phyp driver is important for our project, so I am trying to debug it these days, yes, the uri should be: phyp://user@hmc_server/managed_system. And I made some progress, hopefully I can resolve the connection issue finally. Now the phyp driver can connect to the remote HMC server successfully, but seems the phyp uri conflicts with the libvirt remote driver, so after connection, the "virsh # list" command followed will result in "segment fault" error, I found that the reason is "remoteGenericOpen" called in the do_open will clear the virConnectPtr conn->networkPrivatedata, maybe we need a patch to fix that.

BRs,
Dennis
