It would appear, at the moment, as if the criteria for starting a domain is not the same for creating one, i.e the XML for a working domain that has been edited in a certain way since definition could then not be used to re-define that domain. Sorry cancel the above comment, I am now fairly sure this is because libvirt does not recognize that qemu is installed (in usr/local/(s)bin/, where dies libvirt look if not here?) temp fix: ln -s /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 /usr/bin/qemu change line in xml: <emulator>/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64</emulator> to: <emulator>/usr/bin/qemu</emulator> reboot fixed it for me *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1043572 *** I had this problem too - all my domains vanished after updating from rhel7 alpha to rhel7.0 GA. When I tried 'virsh define /etc/libvirt/qemu/somedomain.xml' I got the "unknown os type hvm". Here's what I did to fix it and bring back my domains (after I did the below "virsh list" showed them all again): # ln -s /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm /bin/qemu-kvm # systemctl restart libvirtd I didn't have to reboot so the above might save someone a reboot. |
