Hi all, I was setting up libvirt and virt-manager for managing Xen VMs. But when I hit "New" in virt-manager to provision a new VM, virt-manager gives me the error: "No install options available for this connection." The hypervisor being used is para-virtualized Xen, running on Debian Squeeze. lux-002# xm info host : lux-002 release : 2.6.32-5-xen-686 version : #1 SMP Mon Jan 16 19:46:09 UTC 2012 machine : i686 nr_cpus : 4 nr_nodes : 1 cores_per_socket : 1 threads_per_core : 2 cpu_mhz : 3200 hw_caps : bfebfbff:20100000:00000000:00000180:0000641d:00000000:00000001:00000000 virt_caps : total_memory : 8191 free_memory : 1150 node_to_cpu : node0:0-3 node_to_memory : node0:1150 node_to_dma32_mem : node0:578 max_node_id : 0 xen_major : 4 xen_minor : 0 xen_extra : .1 xen_caps : xen-3.0-x86_32p xen_scheduler : credit xen_pagesize : 4096 platform_params : virt_start=0xf5800000 xen_changeset : unavailable xen_commandline : placeholder com1=9600,8n1 console=com1,vga cc_compiler : gcc version 4.4.5 (Debian 4.4.5-8) cc_compile_by : waldi cc_compile_domain : debian.org cc_compile_date : Mon Nov 7 09:18:26 CET 2011 xend_config_format : 4 lux-002# libvirtd --version libvirtd (libvirt) 0.8.3 I manage the VMs using my local laptop, running latest Archlinux and latest virt-manager. blackie% uname -a Linux blackie 3.2.2-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 26 08:40:20 CET 2012 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T6670 @ 2.20GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux blackie% libvirtd --version libvirtd (libvirt) 0.9.9 blackie% virt-manager --version 0.9.0 Another perhaps related issue: when I try to provision through virt-install, I always run into this: blackie% virt-install --connect xen+ssh://root@lux-002 ERROR Must be root to create Xen guests blackie% virt-install --version 0.600.0 Strange enough, since I'm connecting with root identity. It seems that only with root identity on local machine can I do virt-install... is this a bug? -- Regards, Cheer Xiao aka. xiaq
