Description of problem: Use virt-install to install a guest with an existing image file of qcow2 format which is on a nfs share directory, the qcow2 format is not recognized. # virsh dumpxml <guest-name> ... <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none'/> <source file='/mnt/win2008r2-64-virtio.qcow2'/> <target dev='hda' bus='ide'/> <alias name='ide0-0-0'/> <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' unit='0'/> </disk> ... That will caused guest failed to boot up. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libvirt-0.8.1-15.el6.x86_64 kernel-2.6.32-49.el6.x86_64 qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.95.el6.x86_64 qemu-img-0.12.1.2-2.95.el6.x86_64 selinux-policy-3.7.19-29.el6.noarch libselinux-2.0.94-1.el6.x86_64 libselinux-utils-2.0.94-1.el6.x86_64 selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-29.el6.noarch libselinux-python-2.0.94-1.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Modify the following lines in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf user = "root" group = "root" dynamic_ownership = 0 2. Set nfs sebool vaule, # setsebool -P virt_use_nfs 1 # getsebool -a|grep virt virt_use_comm --> off virt_use_fusefs --> off virt_use_nfs --> on virt_use_samba --> off virt_use_sysfs --> off virt_use_usb --> on 3. Mount nfs share directory # mount 10.66.90.113:/vol/xenimage/yimwang/ /mnt 4. Use virt-install to install a guest with an existing image file of qcow2 format: # virt-install -n xx -r 512 -f /mnt/win2008r2-64-virtio.qcow2 --import Actual results: Guest failed to start with the following error: Booting from Hard Disk... Boot failed: not a bootable disk Dump domain xml, found that the disk format is setting to "raw" # virsh dumpxml xx ... <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none'/> <source file='/mnt/win2008r2-64-virtio.qcow2'/> <target dev='hda' bus='ide'/> <alias name='ide0-0-0'/> <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' unit='0'/> </disk> ... After I manually edit the format to "qcow2", the guest is booted up successfully. ... <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2' cache='none'/> ... Expected results: Guest should be started successfully. Additional info: In step 3, if I mount the nfs share directory to /var/lib/libvirt/images/, the guest is booted up successfully.
