Description of problem: there is a lack of 'drive_add /drive_del' command in QMP, while existing in HMP monitor. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): host info: 3.10.0-50.el7.x86_64 qemu-kvm-rhev-1.5.3-19.el7.x86_64 seabios-1.7.2.2-4.el7.x86_64 guest info: 2.6.32-425.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.boot QEMU with qmp server. # /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm... -qmp tcp:0:4444,server,nowait 2.connect to QMP and check the commands. # telnet localhost 4444 {"execute":"qmp_capabilities"} {"return": {}} {"execute":"query-commands"} Actual results: after step 2, there is a lack of 'drive_add /drive_del' command in QMP. Expected results: it should have drive_add /drive_del or the same to rhel6.5 to support hotpluging.

I'm sure it is regression but hard for me to check which version has cause it, as some qemu-kvm rmp was deleted from brewweb. Anyway we should set high priority to this bug. I tried: qemu-kvm-1.5.3-19.el7.x86_64 --- hit it ... qemu-kvm-1.5.3-4.el7.x86_64 --- hit it ... qemu-kvm-1.5.0-1.el7.x86_64 --- hit it Best Regards, sluo
Answering comment 1, no RHEL7 build ever had these commands. However, for now libvirt should be able to use the HMP commands in order to do hotplug/hotunplug.
