Hey Rich,
I added some more libvirt packages that seemed to be missing. Added the /dev/kvm node
back... and still no luck. I have attached the latest errors from running virt-resize.
I did notice that a call to 'qemu-kvm' is unhappy about the qcow2 format? It
looks like it can only do version 3? I am not sure that makes sense.
Also, my RHEL Desktop was recently upgraded from the 6.3 channel to the 6.5 channel.
Again, not sure if this matters.
Thanks,
Mark

Hello Rich,
I am not sure if KVM ever ran. I put VirtualBox in it because I have
never done virtualization before and found some instructions for VB.
That said, I might have naively shut something off because I didn't
know any better. No VB was not running at the time. I thought of
that and turned it off. Though, I bet the services are still up.
What is the standard kvm service? I could check to see if it is
running properly. And we could go from there.
There's not really a "KVM service" as such. It is a part of the kernel is
only used when you start a KVM guest.
In any case as it looks like you have VirtualBox running, my advice would be to delete the
/dev/kvm file, and try running libguestfs-test-tool and/or virt-resize again.
sudo rm /dev/kvm
Rich.
