[ovirt-users] migration failed with permission denied

[Fabrice Bacchella]

I'm running an up to date ovirt setup.

I tried to put an host in maintenance mode, with one VM running on it.

It failed with this message in vdsm.log:

Thread-351083::ERROR::2016-06-17 11:30:04,732::migration::209::virt.vm::(_recover) vmId=`b82209c9-42ff-457c-bb98-b6a2034833fc`::internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor: 2016-06-17T09:30:04.429323Z qemu-kvm: -chardev socket,id=charchannel0,path=/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/channels/b82209c9-42ff-457c-bb98-b6a2034833fc.com.redhat.rhevm.vdsm,server,nowait: Failed to bind socket to /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/channels/b82209c9-42ff-457c-bb98-b6a2034833fc.com.redhat.rhevm.vdsm: Permission denied

If i check the file, I see :

srwxrwxr-x 1 qemu qemu 0 May 31 16:21 /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/channels/b82209c9-42ff-457c-bb98-b6a2034833fc.com.redhat.rhevm.vdsm

And on all my hosts, the permissions are the same:
srwxrwxr-x 1 qemu qemu /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/channels/*

And vdsm is running vdsm:
4 S vdsm      3816     1  0  60 -20 - 947345 poll_s May25 ?       02:21:58 /usr/bin/python /usr/share/vdsm/vdsm

If I check vdsm groups:
~# id vdsm
uid=36(vdsm) gid=36(kvm) groups=36(kvm),179(sanlock),107(qemu)
