Unable to allow access for disk path in libvirtd - Fix it Now
This article covers tips to fix the error Unable to allow access for disk path in libvirtd. By default, migration only transfers the in-memory state of a running guest (such as memory or CPU state). Although disk images are not transferred during migration, they need to remain accessible at the same path by both hosts.
To fix Unable to allow access for disk path in libvirtd error:
Set up and mount shared storage at the same location on both hosts. The simplest way to do this is to use NFS:
1. Set up an NFS server on a host serving as shared storage. The NFS server can be one of the hosts involved in the migration, as long as all hosts involved are accessing the shared storage through NFS.
# mkdir -p /exports/images
# cat >>/etc/exports <<EOF
/exports/images 192.168.122.0/24(rw,no_root_squash)
EOF
2. Mount the exported directory at a common location on all hosts running libvirt. For example, if the IP address of the NFS server is 192.168.122.1, mount the directory with the following commands:
# cat >>/etc/fstab <<EOF
192.168.122.1:/exports/images /var/lib/libvirt/images nfs auto 0 0
EOF
# mount /var/lib/libvirt/images
