Hello, I have been attempting to create a virtual machine with a virtio console. However, it does not appear to be working as I've read in, for example, http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-May/msg00964.html . After I create my virtual machine, no devices appear on the host. What am I doing wrong? Here is my virt-install: virt-install \ --ram=1024 \ --accelerate \ --name testola \ --vcpus=1,maxvcpus=2 \ --cpuset=auto \ --pxe \ --os-type=linux \ --os-variant=rhel7 \ --disk path=/var/kvm/testola.img \ --boot=hd,network,menu=on \ -v \ --network bridge=br0 \ --graphics none \ --channel pty,target_type=virtio \ --console pty,target_type=virtio Once I run that virt-install, I expect to see files/devices in /sys/class/virtio-ports and /dev/vport0?? . But there are none.
You said 'host' above, are you looking inside the VM or on your host? Those paths should be in your VM. On my fedora21 VM if have /dev/vport* and /dev/virtio-ports/*
What's your guest OS? Make sure it has the virtio-console module loaded - Cole _______________________________________________ virt-tools-list mailing list virt-tools-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/virt-tools-list
