When you attach a compute node to oVirt, it sets up auth with libvirt to prevent admins from connecting to libvirt. If you want to oiverride that you need to create yourself a SASL user + password using the saslpasswd2 command eg see http://libvirt.org/auth.html#ACL_server_username Regards, Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o-http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :| ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

I'm trying to run virt-v2v to put things into the proper formats/places for ovirt but I need to use my proper credentials to access the qemu:///system space. Where/how do I do this? man pages have no suggestions on virt-v2v. I have a user/passwd combo in saslauth that works for virsh. virt-v2v -i libvirtxml -o libvirt -os export --vmtype server -n ovirtmgmt /var/lib/exports/exports/5eb89069-b750-4d32-b7d3-432fd77202d1/images/test/test.xml virt-v2v: Failed to connect to qemu:///system: libvirt error code: 45, message: authentication failed: Failed to step SASL negotiation: -7 (SASL(-7): invalid parameter supplied: Unexpectedly missing a prompt result) This is really a libvirt question, to which I don't know the answer. Complex libvirt authentication (such as SASL) may ask the user a series of questions, such as username and password. Are you running virt-v2v interactively at a terminal? More importantly does virt-v2v use the virConnectOpenAuth() method which enables callbacks to be provided to prompt for auth ? If not, then it'll need to be updated to support authentication.

Re: [Users] [node-devel] Seting the timezone on the node

It was suggested to look at time differences on the nodes and the VDSM. Anything time related with migration, and/or TLS should be operating against UTC, regardless of what the OS timezone is set to. Basically the only thing timezone ought to affect is timestamps written into logfiles.
