What filesystem type is /share/data/isos/19/Final-TC6 ? It is more usual that the problem is the filesystem not supporting O_DIRECT. As dan says in comment #1, could be lack of FS support, which upstream qemu gives some better error reporting about now (at least for tmpfs). This is one of those cases where it's really difficult for virt-manager to predict what works and what doesn't work, so I prefer not to do any prediction like hiding cache for certain FS or device parameter combinations. Closing as WONTFIX, but if you find that virt-manager somehow encoded cache=none without your explicit doing, we should fix that. It was certainly not something I ever explicitly chose myself, but I doubt I'll ever reproduce whatever circumstance led to it getting selected again, so it might be hard to debug :/ Actually, now I look at it, it seems like - on my system at least - when I add *any* storage device to a VM, even one I just created brand new, the "Cache mode" dropdown defaults to 'none'. Is that not how it's supposed to behave?
