Hi All,

SL 7.2

I am drawing a blank on Google here.

I am, trying to boot a qemu-kvm virtual machine off
of /dev/sr0 (my DVD).  But I get the following error

     Error starting domain: internal error: qemu unexpectedly
     closed the monitor: 2016-12-22T00:00:30.330333Z qemu-kvm:
     -drive file=/dev/sr0,format=raw,if=none,media=cdrom,
     id=drive-sata0-0-0,readonly=on: could not open disk
     image /dev/sr0: Driver 'host_cdrom' is not whitelisted

"Not whitelisted" ????

What am I doing wrong?

Many thanks,
-T


Anyone?

Hi,
just quick search reveals quite a lot of things - eg.:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=760885

it says:
'
CD-ROM passthrough from to the host to a guest has been disabled in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.0 Beta for all front ends. QEMU reports "Driver 'host_cdrom' is not whitelisted" in this scenario.'

it also says it was fixed .. so maybe was reintroduced?

cheers


Hi Karel,

I had found that one too.   They said it had been fixed in
7.0, so I though the problem was mine, but apparently
there has been a regression.

Since SL 7.3 is about to hit and RHEL 7.3 has been around for
a while, I will report this to Red Hat if SL 7.3 does not fix it.
This to keep them from being crabby if I report it on a
previous version than the current one

Thank you for the help!
