So, the problem is in the libxl driver of libvirt I have version 1.1.3.6-1.fc20 (i.e., the one shipped with Fedora 20) >> >>> libxl: debug: libxl_device.c:212:disk_try_backend: Disk vdev=hda, >>> backend tap unsuitable because blktap not available >>> >> >> Which is not available under Xen 4.4. >> >> I am not sure why it did that as you have: >> >> <disk type='file' device='disk'> >> <driver name='file'/> >> > > If you don't have the above patch, use <driver name='qemu'/> to > explicitly request qdisk. I've change the XML and replaced <driver name='file'/> with the above element for both the 'disk' and the 'cdrom' devices: <devices> <disk type='file' device='disk'> <!-- <driver name='file'/> --> <driver name='qemu'/> <source file='/root/images/testvm.img'/> <target dev='hda' bus='ide'/> </disk> <disk type='file' device='cdrom'> <!-- <driver name='file'/> --> <driver name='qemu'/> <source file='/root/iso/CentOS-7.0-1406-x86_64-Minimal.iso'/> <target dev='hdc' bus='ide'/> <readonly/> </disk> ... </devices> Then rebooted and created the VM with virsh.
