Description of problem: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_container_development_kit/3.8/html-single/getting_started_guide/index#for-linux 1.3.2.1. Setting Up the KVM Driver instructions should be reviewed for accuracy Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): current How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Follow 1.3.2.1. Setting Up the KVM Driver 2. 3. Actual results: Target user does not have new group (libvirt) Expected results: Target user with new group permissions Additional info: The specific issue I identified was: 3. As root, add yourself to the libvirt group: # usermod -a -G libvirt $(whoami) 4. Update your current session to apply the group change: $ newgrp libvirt This doesn't work since whoami would return "root". Thus, the usermod command would add "root" user to the "libvirt" group where the target user should instead be added I am unsure if the whole section is accurate so I suggest reviewing with the developers
Yana, please, create an issue in JIRA and action when possible.
