Posted patch to resolve this bug. https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2013-August/msg01320.html commit 9ba230d4f2f031e2fda2b6aa98a290394c2ddaaf Author: Ian Main <imain> AuthorDate: 2013-09-05 12:04:33 +0100 Commit: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange> CommitDate: 2013-09-05 12:31:08 +0100 Use loop-control to allocate loop device. This patch changes virFileLoopDeviceOpen() to use the new loop-control device to allocate a new loop device. If this behavior is unsupported we fall back to the previous method of searching /dev for a free device. With this patch you can start as many image based LXC domains as you like (well almost).
