I'm having some trouble creating KVM domains with RBD block devices using
virsh. I've managed to get virsh to define the domain, but it gives an error
when trying to start the domain:
error: Failed to start domain test0
error: internal error process exited while connecting to monitor: char device redirected to /dev/pts/3
kvm: -drive file=rbd:rbd/test0,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=raw: error connecting
kvm: -drive file=rbd:rbd/test0,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=raw: could not open disk image rbd:rbd/test0: No such file or directory
>From libvirt's QEMU log:

I can, however, successfully run a KVM virtual machine with an RBD block
device with the following command:
kvm -drive file=rbd:rbd/test1,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=raw -cdrom /var/lib/libvirt/images/ubuntu-12.04-server-amd64.iso
kvm will boot with the "-drive file=rbd:rbd/test0,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=raw"
options, but the disk is not detected unless "if=none" is removed.
Has anyone else figured this out?
Thank you,
Jeff
