In my case i have a bit more of a trace on the permission issue but not much more

Has this issue been solved ? if so how as i do not see the resolution on the archives. Else would you all help me resolve it please?
It is very annoying to have a hundred gig disk copied over to your NFS export and then deleted because qemu or libguestfs has a permissions issue in opening it.
this is an issue with Ovirt Version 3.3.2-1.fc19
virt-v2v version is
virt-v2v --version 0.9.0
and libguestfs version and qemu version are :
libguestfs-1.22.7-4.fc19.x86_64
QEMU emulator version 1.4.2
Are you running virt-v2v as root? If so my guess is that it's this libvirt bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1045069 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1045039 The easiest thing is to disable libvirt by doing: sudo bash export LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct virt-v2v [..etc..] Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones Read my programming blog: http://rwmj.wordpress.com Fedora now supports 80 OCaml packages (the OPEN alternative to F#)
