The vnc-listen patch didn't make it into 4.2 due to a newer version of libvirt-java not being released. Eventually we want to get rid of this, but currently we are forced to do it this way. Setting it to anything else then 0.0.0.0 will break migrations without a newer version of libvirt-java The newer version of libvirt-java supports live migratons with a different XML definition for on the destination host.

<para>In order to have live migration working libvirt has to listen for unsecured TCP connections. We also need to turn off libvirts attempt to use Multicast DNS advertising. Both of these settings are in <filename>/etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf</filename></para>

<para>Set the following parameters:</para>
|
|
<programlisting>listen_tls = 0</programlisting>

<programlisting>listen_tcp = 1</programlisting>

<programlisting>tcp_port = "16509"</programlisting>

<para>Turning on "listen_tcp" in libvirtd.conf is not enough, we have to change the parameters as well:</para>
|

<para>On RHEL or CentOS modify <filename>/etc/sysconfig/libvirtd</filename>:</para>

<para>Uncomment the following line:</para>
|
|
<programlisting>#LIBVIRTD_ARGS="--listen"</programlisting>

<para>On Ubuntu: modify <filename>/etc/default/libvirt-bin</filename></para>
|
|
<para>Add "-l" to the following line::</para>
|

<programlisting>libvirtd_opts="-d"</programlisting>

<para>so it looks like:</para>

<programlisting>libvirtd_opts="-d -l"</programlisting>

<para>In order to have the VNC Console work we have to make sure it will bind on 0.0.0.0. We do this by editing <filename>/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf</filename></para>
