Subject: qemu-block-extra does not appear to add glusterfs support to libvirtd
Bcc: Dave Sherohman <[email protected]>
Package: qemu-block-extra
Version: 1:2.8+dfsg-6
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I'm running some libvirt/kvm/qemu hosts and would like to move to using
the glusterfs storage backend. Per the close message on bug #775431 and
the description of qemu-block-extra itself, it appears that installing
qemu-block-extra should allow this.
However, this does not appear to be the case. After installing
qemu-block-extra and restarting libvirtd, the glusterfs backend remains
unavailable:
~$ sudo apt-get install qemu-block-extra

~$ virsh pool-define gluster.xml
error: Failed to define pool from gluster.xml
error: internal error: missing backend for pool type 10 (gluster)
