Hi Jonathan,
According to my very recent experience, your issue seems related to the
following points I'm reading in the virt-v2v help :
-o method
Specifies the output method. Supported output methods are:
libvirt
Create a libvirt guest. *-os* must specify a libvirt storage
pool for the libvirt output method.
Also see the *-oc* option.
rhev
Create a guest on a RHEV 'Export' storage domain, which can
later be imported into RHEV using the UI. *-os* must specify the
location of a RHEV export storage domain for the RHEV output
method.
If no output type is specified, it defaults to libvirt.
-oc URI
Specifies the libvirt connection to use to create the converted
guest. If omitted, this defaults to qemu:///system when virt-v2v
runs as root, or qemu:///session when virt-v2v runs as a regular
user.
If I understand it well, you don't specify any output method (-o option)
so it defaults to libvirt output storage.
And you don't specify any libvirt connection, and you're running it as
root, so it defaults to qemu:///system and fails.
My recent successful migrations with virt-v2v were made without
specifying "-oc" option, but with telling "-o rhev".
HTH.
