Here is what I tried:

Domain installation does not appear to have been successful.
If it was, you can restart your domain by running:
virsh --connect qemu:///system start u24-vm-01
Here are the directory permissions for
/run/media/pgaltieri/SDNVIRTLAB06/VirtualMachines/KVM/VMs/u24-vm-01
drwxrwxrwx 1 pgaltieri pgaltieri 48 Feb 4 08:36 ./
What is this mounted from? It's the selinux permissions that are the
problem.
This is an NTFS drive so SElinux permissions shouldn't apply. Plus
/run/media/pgaltieri/SDNVIRTLAB06/
is mounted when I login. If there where SElinux issues I would expect
to see them then.
Additionally I get SElinux alerts
SELinux is preventing rpc-virtstorage from unlink access on the file
u24-vm-01
As you see here.
Using virt-manager as my user id fails
I get this SElinux alert
SELinux is preventing rpc-virtqemud from setattr access on the file
u24- vm-01
And of course using virt-manager will have the same issue.
The directory where this file is is on an NTFS disk.
