Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as exception or blocker. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. I don't think the readonly attribute works for IDE devices, so this isn't really expected to work. So I think this is NOTABUG |
Description of problem: When an IDE disk is added as a second disk by Add Hardware, and set as Readonly, the vm machine can not be started. Whenever the first disk is IDE or Virtio disk, this problem always occur. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-manager: virt-manager-0.8.6-3.el6 kernel: kernel-2.6.32-120.el6.x86_64 qemu-kvm: qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.150.el6.x86_64 libvirt: libvirt-0.8.7-11.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Shut down a vm then open Virtual Machine Details window. 2.Click Hardware tab then Click Add Hardware, select Storage, Browse the test.img location and IDE Disk item. 3.Check this added IDE disk as Readonly. 4.Click "Apply" button. 5.Run the virtual machine. Actual results: Get the error message Expected results: vm start successfully Additional info: ------------- Error Message ------------- Error starting domain: internal error Process exited while reading console log output: char device redirected to /dev/pts/1 Using CPU model "cpu64-rhel6" Using CPU model "cpu64-rhel6" Using CPU model "cpu64-rhel6" qemu-kvm: -device ide-drive,bus=ide.0,unit=1,drive=drive-ide0-0-1,id=ide0-0-1: Can't use a read-only drive qemu-kvm: -device ide-drive,bus=ide.0,unit=1,drive=drive-ide0-0-1,id=ide0-0-1: Device 'ide-drive' could not be initialized Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 45, in cb_wrapper callback(asyncjob, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line 956, in asyncfunc vm.startup() File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 1048, in startup self._backend.create() File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 330, in create if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainCreate() failed', dom=self) libvirtError: internal error Process exited while reading console log output: char device redirected to /dev/pts/1 Using CPU model "cpu64-rhel6" Using CPU model "cpu64-rhel6" Using CPU model "cpu64-rhel6" qemu-kvm: -device ide-drive,bus=ide.0,unit=1,drive=drive-ide0-0-1,id=ide0-0-1: Can't use a read-only drive qemu-kvm: -device ide-drive,bus=ide.0,unit=1,drive=drive-ide0-0-1,id=ide0-0-1: Device 'ide-drive' could not be initialized ------------ dumpxml info ------------ <emulator>/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm</emulator> <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none'/> <source file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/rhel6_x86_64_IDE.img'/> <target dev='hda' bus='ide'/> <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' unit='0'/> </disk> <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <source file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/test.img'/> <target dev='hdb' bus='ide'/> <readonly/> <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' unit='1'/> </disk>
