Description of problem: when attempting to connect to libvirt-cim using sfcb in an ovirt-node environment, the request hangs forever. Debugging showed this to be a segfault in the libvirt-cim code Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): latest f17 version of libvirt-cim and sfcb ovirt-node 2.3.0 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start ovirt-node and enable cim 2. attempt to connect using a command like: wbemcli ein -noverify https://cim@hostname/root/virt:KVM_VirtualSystemManagementService Actual results: Hangs forever Expected results: Returns with valid data Additional info:
Actually that just worked for me paphio:~ -> wbemcli ein -noverify https://foo:bar@10.16.75.203/root/virt:KVM_VirtualSystemManagementService 10.16.75.203:5989/root/virt:KVM_VirtualSystemManagementService.SystemCreationClassName="KVM_HostSystem",SystemName="dhcp75-203.virt.bos.redhat.com",CreationClassName="KVM_VirtualSystemManagementService",Name="Management Service" paphio:~ -> on the ovirt node there is the following packages: [root@dhcp75-203 admin]# rpm -q libvirt libvirt-cim libcmpiutil sblim-sfcb libvirt-0.9.10-10.el6.x86_64 libvirt-cim-0.6.1-3.el6.x86_64 libcmpiutil-0.5.6-1.el6.x86_64 sblim-sfcb-1.3.11-2.el6.x86_64 [root@dhcp75-203 admin]# The hang used to come from loading the libvirt-cim shared libraries in the sfcbd daemon server space (this is done on-demand) this used to crash and the resulting request was kept pending. On the specific configuration above this seems to work, Daniel -------------------- more details on teh installed packages --------------- Name : libvirt Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 0.9.10 Vendor: Red Hat, Inc.

Yes, this works downstream in rhev-h/ovirt-node builds, but fails with upstream.
Since F17 EOL is approaching in a month, I doubt this will be fixed in F17. If this still affects you, please try reproducing against F19 and we can reopen.
