I guess that's just an XML Builder triviality somewhere, could you attach debug output of virt-manager when reproducing this? Thanks. (In reply to Martin Kletzander from comment #2) > I guess that's just an XML Builder triviality somewhere, could you attach > debug output of virt-manager when reproducing this? Thanks. When adding filesystem on lxc guest,debug info will show as: 2013-12-10 16:05:12,968 (addhardware:1320): Adding device: <filesystem> <source dir='/tmp'/> <target dir='/mnt'/> </filesystem> 2013-12-10 16:05:12,982 (libvirtobject:145): Redefining 'test' with XML diff: --- Original XML +++ New XML @@ -25,5 +25,9 @@ <console type="pty"> <target type="lxc" port="0"/> </console> + <filesystem> + <source dir="/tmp"/> + <target dir="/mnt"/> + </filesystem> </devices> </domain> this option shouldn't be modifiable for non-qemu connections. It is fixed upstream with:

addhw: Fix FS UI for non-qemu
The patch changes other things that we wouldn't probably like to change for RHEL-7, so I am going to cherry-pick the parts that fix this particular issue.
Verified the bug according to the following steps and comments4 # rpm -qa virt-manager virt-manager-0.10.0-11.el7.noarch 1. open lxc guest via virt-manager, switch to hardware detail page,click add Hardware button 2 select Filesystem in left panel,there's no write policy option on the GUI. This request was resolved in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.0. Contact your manager or support representative in case you have further questions about the request. |
Description Can not set write policy of filesystem as immediate for lxc guest from virt-manager GUI Version: virt-manager-0.10.0-8.el7.noarch How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1: #virt-manager --connect lxc:/// 2: open lxc guest via virt-manager,make sure the vm in shutdown status,attached the detailed steps of creating lxc guest in additional info B. 3: switch to hardware detail page,click add Hardware button 4: select Filesystem in left panel, input source path(the path of host,e.g. /tmp),input target path(the path of guest,e.g. /mnt),choose write policy as "immediate". 5: click Finish,click Apply 6: start the guest,check the xml of the guest,the write policy is "default" instead of "immediate",also write policy shows as "default" from virt-manager GUI. # virsh -c lxc:/// dumpxml $gueset <filesystem type='mount' accessmode='passthrough'> <source dir='/tmp'/> <target dir='/mnt'/> </filesystem> Actual results： As description. Expected results: The write policy of lxc guest can be set as "immediate" from virt-manager GUI. Additional info: A.If I add the below line in guest xml,then boot the guest,write policy shows as "immediate" from virt-manager GUI. <driver type='path' wrpolicy='immediate'/> B.Attach the detailed steps to create a lxc guest. 1. add the following yum repo #vim /etc/yum.repos.d/yum-fedora.conf [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum/$basearch/$releaseverkeepcache=0 debuglevel=2 logfile=/var/log/yum.log exactarch=1 obsoletes=1 gpgcheck=1 plugins=1 installonly_limit=3 [fedora] name=Fedora $releasever - $basearch failovermethod=priority #baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/$releasever/Everything/$basearch/os/ mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=fedora-$releasever&arch=$basearch enabled=1 metadata_expire=7d gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-$releasever-$basearch [updates] name=Fedora $releasever - $basearch - Updates failovermethod=priority #baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/updates/$releasever/$basearch/ mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f$releasever&arch=$basearch enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 2.#yum -y --nogpg --releasever=19 --config=/etc/yum.repos.d/yum-fedora.conf --installroot=/var/lib/libvirt/filesystems/f19x86_64 --disablerepo='*' --enablerepo=fedora install systemd passwd yum redhat-release vim-minimal openssh-server procps 3. #echo "pts/0" >> /var/lib/libvirt/filesystems/f19x86_64/etc/securetty 4. #vi /var/lib/libvirt/filesystems/f19x86_64/etc/pam.d/login commnent out the following lines #session required pam_selinux.so close #session required pam_loginuid.so 5.add root user and the passwd. #chroot /var/lib/libvirt/filesystems/f19x86_64 /bin/passwd root 6.
