Re: [Libguestfs] [PATCH] v2v: xen: Require direct backend when doing Xen conversions over SSH.

From: "Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones(a)redhat.com&gt; Unfortunately libvirt has another bug related to the qemu ssh driver, as described here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1434651#c3 Until this bug is fixed we have to require the direct backend to be used for xen+ssh conversions. This partially reverts commit ecbf09385033ba0acf14e914927ec81ad20a5308. --- v2v/input_libvirt_xen_ssh.ml | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/v2v/input_libvirt_xen_ssh.ml b/v2v/input_libvirt_xen_ssh.ml index 4975eff..a68cdf8 100644 --- a/v2v/input_libvirt_xen_ssh.ml +++ b/v2v/input_libvirt_xen_ssh.ml @@ -38,6 +38,9 @@ object debug "input_libvirt_xen_ssh: source: scheme %s server %s" scheme server; + if backend_is_libvirt () then ( + error (f_"because of libvirt bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1434651 you must set this environment variable:\n\nexport LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct\n\nand then rerun the virt-v2v command.") + );
