iohyve list displays incorrect information when run as non-root

Open duxovni opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

When I run iohyve list as a non-root user, all VMs are listed as not running. If iohyve can't figure out whether VMs are running when it doesn't have root privileges, then it should display a warning or refuse to run.

Good catch! Sometimes you cannot see processes spawned by other users (in this case root). We'll get a warning added if the uid isn't root's.

Can you confirm that you can still see it's (correct) VMM status?

Yup, the VMM status was correct.
