Wei, can you retry after batcave gets the update? This should have been fixed by

qemu: Specify format= iff disk source is not empty
Just recently, qemu forbade specifying format for sourceless
disks (qemu commit 39c4ae941ed992a3bb5). It kind of makes sense.
If there's no file to open, why specify its format. Anyway, I
have a domain like this:
<disk type='file' device='cdrom'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
<readonly/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
and obviously I am unable to start it. Therefore, a fix on our
side is needed too.

so using the latest libvirt package should be enough.
There is no specific reasons to stick with older version. I can re-test when new compose is ready. $ git describe d7db33bfe978c89e1302609ac91e65be3d49379f --match=v* v1.3.0-166-gd7db33b test the bug in x86 host: result: the problem is not reproduced. version: libvirt-1.3.4-1.el7.x86_64 qemu-kvm-rhev-2.5.0-4.el7.x86_64 kernel-3.10.0-390.el7.x86_64 step: 1.install a guest [root@localhost ~]# virt-install -n r7 --cdrom ./RHEL-7.2-20151030.0-Server-x86_64-dvd1.iso --boot uefi --vcpus=1 -r 2048 --disk size=6 --network default After installation and reboot, the guest reboots successfully，and there is no error showed above. verify the bug on x86
version:
libvirt-2.0.0-6.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.6.0-22.el7.x86_64
steps:
1)prepare a guest with the following xml:
<disk type='file' device='cdrom'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
<readonly/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
2)start the guest
[root@localhost ~]# virsh start bios
Domain bios started
[root@localhost ~]#ps -ef | grep drive
....-drive if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-0,readonly=on....
the result is expected.
