[Libguestfs] P2V conversion failed with "/run/lvm/lvmetad.socket: connect failed: No such file or directory"

[Chengappa Changz]

Hello Rich,
Greetings!

It was great connecting with you and, I would like to thank you for your
time and being patient on answering all our queries.

However, referring to the link ->
http://libguestfs.org/virt-p2v.1.html#how-virt-p2v-works we have a
ambiguity -> i.e. under the section "GUI INTERACTIVE CONFIGURATION" we have
"When you start virt-p2v, you'll see a graphical configuration dialog that
walks you through connection to the conversion server,"

As of now we are using *virt-manager* to get this GUI INTERACTIVE
CONFIGURATION as we are not sure if this is the correct way of invoking GUI,

Attaching the screen shots of the process till where we were *successful
using the virt-manger*

It would be highly appreciated if you can let us know how we can invoke
this interactive GUI with-out virt-manager so that we could proceed further
with the conversion.

*Thanks & Regards,*

*Chengappa M.R*
