Thanks a lot, Rich, for your quick response! I installed libguestfs-tools into one VM instance that has the same kernel version as the guest VM to be modified by virt-sysprep, I verified that it indeed worked ok for virt-sysprep on the guest VM instance. However, I noticed that my host kernel is with version 3.10.101, and the guest is using kernel version 3.10.0. It appears that the host has even newer version of the kernel.
But it indeed resolved my issue by using the exact same kernel version. Regards, Alan -----Original Message----- From: Richard W.M.

Caller 0xffffffffa01faf35 The problem is that the XFS module in this old kernel does not know how to read new features in the XFS filesystem from the CentOS 7 kernel (and instead of giving a useful error, panics). Unfortunately in general it's not possible to read an XFS filesystem from a newer machine with an older kernel. You will have to upgrade the host to a new version, or install or use a newer kernel by setting various environment variables: http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-faq.1.html#broken-kernel-or-trying-a-different-kernel Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones Read my programming and virtualization blog: http://rwmj.wordpress.com virt-top is 'top' for virtual machines.
