All, i am a newbi to the openstack. I am trying to create a QCOW2 image from a
Centos Linux installation iso and ran into the a road block. This is what I did
so far (just followed the admin manual for Openstack).
IMAGE=centos-6.2.img
$ qemu-img create -f raw $IMAGE 5G
VNCDISPLAY=:2
$ MONITOR=/tmp/file.mon
$ sudo /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -m 1024 -drive file=${IMAGE},if=virtio,index=0 \
-boot c -net nic -net user -nographic -vnc ${VNCDISPLAY} \
-monitor unix:${MONITOR},server,nowait
I have the distribution iso on the local directory of the user.
I got the following error. what am i missing here?
qemu-kvm: -drive file=centos-6.2.img,if=virtio,index=0: could not open disk
image centos-6.2.img:Operation not supported
Any help is appreciated.
AK
