This is a qemu error,in the sense that nova does not have permissions to write/read to the specified qcow2 file.
Stop the libvirtd service
[root@localhost ~(keystone)]# systemctl stop libvirtd.service
Then set user and group to nova service
Set the dynamic_ownership to zero
[root@localhost ~(keystone)]# vi /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf
user = "nova"
# The group for QEMU processes run by the system instance. It can be
# specified in a similar way to user.
group = "nova"
# Whether libvirt should dynamically change file ownership
# to match the configured user/group above. Defaults to 1.
# Set to 0 to disable file ownership changes.
dynamic_ownership = 0
Save the file and restart libvirtd service
[root@localhost ~(keystone)]# systemctl start libvirtd.service
and you will be good
