Comment 5 luxin 2013-08-02 05:56:40 EDT

I can reproduce this bug:

Version:
virt-manager-0.9.0-18.el6.x86_64
libvirt-0.10.2-18.el6_4.9.x86_64

Steps for Reproduce:
1. Prepare an VM which is not running.
2. Issue "virt-manager" to open virt-manager.
3. Select the existing VM, then "open" -> "details" -> "Overview" -> "Security"
4. Select "static" option, then specify a label,and apply it.
such as: "system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c100,c200"
5. Change selinux to dynamic,then apply

Result:
Error occurs after change selinux from static to dynamic from virt-manager: Error changing VM configuration: unsupported configuration: dynamic label type must use resource relabeling

Verify:
libvirt-0.10.2-21.el6.x86_64
virt-manager-0.9.0-19.el6.x86_64

Steps for Verify:
1. Prepare an VM which is not running.
2. Issue "virt-manager" to open virt-manager.
3. Select the existing VM, then "open" -> "details" -> "Overview" -> "Security"
4. Select "static" option, then specify a label,and apply it.
such as: "system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c100,c200"
5. Change selinux to dynamic,then apply

Result:
No error shows and change selinux from static to dynamic successfully.
