[CentOS] virtmanager and selinux

I built a new VM under KVM today and I've been getting  a slew of message
that selinux is blocking virtmanager from reading the new image. This
doesn't seem to be doing any harm, but I wanted to check whether I should
simply run chcon on the image (if I can).

Virtmanager show up as usr_t, as do my other vm images, but the new one is
svirt_image_t.

The selinux error says it denied a read access to virtmanager but that it is
not expected that the access is required.

I tried running restorecon as root, as suggested by the selinux error, but
I'm getting a permission-denied error there. (It tries to set the context to
usr_t)

Thanks in advance
