--- Begin Message ---Package: libvirt0 Version: 1.2.9-9+deb8u1 Severity: normal Hi, I'm trying to start a KVM instance, booting from a CD-ROM ISO image that is stored on a network server, and readonly for the VM host machine. Using the definition <disk type='file' device='cdrom'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <source file='/mnt/boot.iso'/> <target dev='sdb' bus='scsi'/> <readonly/> <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='1'/> </disk> I'd expect to be able to boot, but I get error: Failed to start domain Test error: unable to set user and group to '108:119' on '/mnt/boot.iso': Permission denied Setting the <shareable/> attribute does not help. It would be great if there was a way to use readonly CD-ROM images without requiring write access to them.

--- Begin Message ---Hi, you can disable dynamic ownership in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf, see [1] for the file in the source. There you could also overwrite the user/group that is used to do so. Since this is not a bug that can be fixed in the source/package we can close it safely. [1]: https://github.com/libvirt/libvirt/blob/master/src/qemu/qemu.conf#L457
