Based on this message, it is qemu that is refusing to do the pivot, but I don't know if that is because of permissions on the destination file, or something else (that is, it may still be a libvirt bug for not putting things in the right state for the qemu command to have a chance of succeeding). What distro are you using? Is AppArmor or SELinux at play, where temporarily getting that out of the way might change things? > > I'm on qemu 2.2.0 and libvirt-1.2.11. > > Does someone else see this error?

I've had other reports of bogus behavior, so I'm trying to take another audit of the code this week to see if I can find a problem in the libvirt code. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
