Description David Tonhofer 2014-05-15 17:03:04 UTC

In:

http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/18/html/Virtualization_Administration_Guide/chap-Virtualization_Administration_Guide-Storage_Pools-Storage_Pools.html#sect-dir-based-storage-cmd

I want to create storage pools using virsh.

Corrections:

Create the storage pool definition
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

"The path to a file system directory for storing guest image files. If this directory does not exist, virsh will create it."

This is incorrect. "You have to create it afterwards using virsh" is correct.

Create the local directory 
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I create the directory under "/home"

Documentation shows that "ls -la /guest_images" shows the directory having permissions "700". This is incorrect, the permissions are "755" (at least for me)

Improvement: Maybe one should also add the output of

ls --lcontext -la /guest_images/

drwxr-xr-x. 2 system_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 root root 4096 May 15 18:50 .
drwxr-xr-x. 5 system_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 root root 4096 May 15 18:50 ..

The wrong permissions error is repeated under "6. Verify the storage pool configuration":

ls -la /guest_images/
total 8
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 May 15 18:50 .
drwxr-xr-x. 5 root root 4096 May 15 18:50 ..

Comment 2 Petr Bokoc 2019-11-07 15:30:13 UTC

I'm closing this bug as part of a Bugzilla cleanup effort. The most likely reason is that the bug has been opened either against a component we no longer publish, or against Release Notes for an EOL release.
