Hello all,
I've hit a very strange behaviour using the Virtual Machine Manager GUI
on SL6.1. The problem started after upgrading from 6.0.
When adding a new guest OS, I get through to the last step but the
display literally says "Ready to begin installation of foobar" instead
of the name I specified, and the 5 lines which display the OS, Install,
Memory, CPUs and Storage information simply contain the word "label".
Very strange.
FYI, I always create the storage as raw disks rather than
filesystem-in-a-file, by manually specifying /dev/md/md_dXX as the
RAID device to use. This is how all the earlier VMs were created on
SL6.0. I have checked file permissions and ownership in all of the
QEMU/KVM related places and they all seem correct. This is a production
machine so I can't just re-install QEMU/KVM.
I can create a VM manually by cloning an existing XML file and changing
its name, UUID and storage path, etc, so the problem seems to be in the
Manager. I haven't ventured into the CLI mode of creating a VM from
scratch.
Has anyone else encountered this behaviour?
Thanks,
Chuck
