$ qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -cdrom gluster://192.168.124.100/gv0/boot-with-serial.iso

But if I run with sudo, it works:

$ sudo qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -cdrom gluster://192.168.124.100/gv0/boot-with-serial.iso
Linux version 2.6.18-92.el5 (brewbuilder.redhat.com) (gcc version 4.1.2 20071124 (Red Hat 4.1.2-41)) #1 SMP Tue Apr 29 13:16:15 EDT 2008
Command line: initrd=initrd.img console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 BOOT_IMAGE=vmlinuz
...

This also affects VMs launched with libvirt as well, since they are launched with reduced privileges. I don't know if this is a regression or not since it's the first time I'm running with gluster + qemu.

Host and server running:
$ $ rpm -q qemu-system-x86 libvirt-daemon glusterfs
qemu-system-x86-2.1.2-6.fc21.x86_64
libvirt-daemon-1.2.9.1-2.fc21.x86_64
glusterfs-3.5.3-1.fc21.x86_64

I'm temped to close this as NOTABUG, assuming you have missed this step:
- http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Libgfapi_with_qemu_libvirt#Tuning_glusterfsd_to_accept_requests_from_QEMU

Please confirm. Thanks!

Oh, and also the rpc-auth-allow-insecure option mentioned in the paragraph just before that.

Indeed that fixed it. Sorry, I tried googling but somehow missed bug 1057292
