We should make use of this --name parameter then - I guess it didn't
exist when we first wrote the driver. It is useful to users to have
separate ID vs Name parameters - and in fact the current reusing of
'ID' for the name, causes a little confusion in virsh's lookup
routines
because it can't tell whether the parameter its given is a name or
an
ID, since they are identical.
There is still a question of how to specify both a name and CTID in
XML
description.
By default, CTID can be obtained as openvzGimmeFirstUnusedCTID(), but
actually
I think that there exists a number of persons interested in giving
CTIDs
manually.
Well, can <domain id=''> be used for CTID remaining <name> for
alphabetical domain name?
I worte a small patch and tried with following XML setting.

I found the type of id was identified as number( obj->type ==
XPATH_NUMBER ) in virXPathLongBase,
but it is clearly string before converted.
I think correct path is to go in the first if context( obj->type ==
XPATH_STRING ) and run strtol.
Then I tried with following XML.

<domain id=100>

I got following error.

I'm not sure from which function should return this result.
Maybe this is the first step to go forward.
I am doubting openvz*LookupBy* functions be also modified, right?
