Description Pierre Ossman 2011-08-11 12:00:07 UTC

I'm connecting to my CentOS 6 libvirtd using virt-manager from my Fedora 14 and I get lots of these in messages:

Looking at http://libvirt.org/hvsupport.html, these are not supported over a remote connection until 0.7.2, but spamming messages like this is not sensible. Either libvirtd should shut up about unsupported functions, or virt-manager should be more clever and not try to use unsupported functions.

experiencing the same issue

Comment 2 Cole Robinson 2016-03-23 13:13:02 UTC

I believe virt-manager did get more clever about this. If anyone can still reproduce with a recent virt-manager version, please file a new virt-manager bug
