Hi, Thank you for your review. How about this correction?

I corrected to use snprintf.

I added the return value check and error handling.

Okey, I removed memset.

I added error handling.

If I use it, the redirection is no problem.
However, when our customers are made to use virsh, it is necessary to
explain the redirection.
Mostly, a lot of customers do not seem to use the redirection usually.
And, executing the command applying the redirection to customers again
when the error occurs is troublesome of customers.
Therefore, the purpose is to make it immediately correspond to
the customer's trouble report.
Thanks,
