Hello everybody! I seem to be having a problem similar to 

the posting from 

" importing VM from ESXI "

" I'm not being able to import a VM from ESXI:"  


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
