Hello Rich,
I figured out how to stop the VB services. I then deleted the /dev/kvm. Then I ran the
libguestfs-test-tool and it said 'OK'. Then I ran virt-resize and it was unhappy
that /dev/kvm no longer existed. I have attached the debug output for your review.
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.
